today in history
1997: I was still in NS at that time. And during this fateful Friday night, our ship was having its year-end dinner gathering at Holland Village. The night was drawing to an end when one of the officers got a call. He announced that we had been activated for sailing with immediately notice. We thought he was joking. But he wasn't. We returned to base right after the dinner and set sail soon after for Palembang, Indonesia. Our part in the rescue mission lasted almost a week, and it was the most (or perhaps only) meaningful thing I ever did in NS. Who can forget the murky waters, the priests and the mourners sprinkling offerings in them, and the doom and gloom all around?
1970-something (I shouldn't reveal the year): Somewhere on the small island of Singapore, a baby was born. Yes, it's J, aka Miss No Comment's birthday today. Despite being one of the longest and most faithful readers of this blog, she never posts any comments. What must I do to make her do so? Anyway, happy birthday! :D
