Gotta love this..
Got my basic theory almost a month after I reached my 18th birthday till now. It's been 4 years too long.
I finally passed my TP on the 4th August this year. Coincidentally, my ship happened to be number 84. But still glad I could get it on a 2nd attempt, and I thought I would flunk it - Because i took my driving lessons just 1,2 days before the 2nd test only. And furthermore i realised i lost my PDL on the morning of the 1st lesson itself!
Sailing on National day - Wasn't a treat either. Off marina south stood our lonesome ship, moving east - west and west - east, and when the fireworks goes off, all we could see were the distant flashes emitted from the explosions, how sad. Down in the galley, my communications chief cooked us a sumptuous dinner for that special day; Black pepper crabs, drunken prawns in Martell, chilli crabs, LaLa, some kind of steamed fish he got from fishing, days before the sailing. The meal worth $800. Everything's nice.
Just bad that I can't take spicy food.
Just bad that I don't like prawns and crabs.
After 12 midnight we're back to our usual patrol off South China Sea. And the sea-state was so bad, it felt like earthquake 6.0 on the Richter scale. Many vomited, many can't get to sleep and some unsecured items went falling all over the place.
To add matters worst, there's too many defects and repairs to be done. Machineries all having undesirable conditions - they say because lunar 7th month is coming, and this always happen days before the month.
