A club emblazoned with funky swiveling lights, and mist that delude patrons into thinking they are in a surreal paradise.
Add in the loud music, hot women and intoxication of alcohol.
The perfect formula for madness.
My experience could be aptly summarised in 8 words:
灯红酒绿,醉生梦死
The sight of the dancing horde made me wonder about many things:
1) Are their lives so sad/ tense that they resort to chilling out in hell?
2) Don't these people have to work the following morning? Hello, it's 3am already.
3) Do these people even have a future?
My first clubbing experience was bad. I'm never going to a club again.
And just in case you were wondering: Nope, I didn't dance. I stood by a corner, watching Jonathan, Cissy, Madeline and another Cissy indulge themselves in the euphoric atmosphere. Dancing isn't my thing. And more importantly, I needed to sober up.
It may be a paradise for many, but definitely not mine.

Getting Drunk
There are many different types of drunk, I heard. Some sad. Some happy. Some laugh. Some cry.
I happen to be a laughing drunk.
I was laughing, but I wasn't happy.
I happen to be a laughing drunk.
I was laughing, but I wasn't happy.
Adieu, Jonathan
How time flies. 6 months have gone by since I first joined the ministry and was introduced to an "asshole" by the name of Jonathan Ng. In all honesty, I have always been guilty of stereotyping people from RJC as jerks after my many interactions with them in life. Well, I guess Geok Wah's splendid introduction didn't do you much favour as well. Right.
But as fate would have it, you turned out to be one of my most truthful friends. And most importantly, a friend in need. Even though you always poked fun at me, it was in good fun and you were always a great company. I'm sure your presence will also be missed by Shandy, Elaine, Qiu Rong, Geok Wah and many others.
Hope we can meet up again soon after our trip to Bintan.
We wish you all the best in your future endeavours!

Day of Resignation
Dear Friends,
I have tendered my resignation this morning.
Thank you for your encouragement.
Thank you for lending me a listening ear when I was feeling down.
I really appreciate it.
Life is supposed to be a playground.
I'm just preventing it from becoming a graveyard.
I'm not a defeatist.
Don't impose your values on me.
I have made my decision and I will stand by it.
