Erm...This is my title.

Or at least a part thereof... It had already been a few hours since we landed in Ataturk Airport in Istanbul, Turkey and we were looking around inside a souvenir shop at the perimeter of the courtyard surrounding the beautiful Blue Mosque. I came across a book titled 'Istanbul - The Cradle of Civilisation' prompting me to make a mental note that I should diary down my trip to Turkey, USA and Canada this year. Looking back, I was really excited to explore parts of the world that I have never set foot on before. Growing up, It was ingrained within me that travelling is a luxury, not a necessity and this mindset has always made me grateful for the opportunities that I get to travel overseas. Every trip is unique and memorable and I want to capture all the feelings and experiences to the best of my abilities in as many ways possible. My 35-hour long flight to the City of Dreams, New York was split into three aspects - The initial 11h long flight to Turkey, 13h layover in Ist

Okay so the inspiration for this post came about when I was talking to my friend about how we should take note of the main events that occurred each year and compare it with the previous years which seemed like a really good idea.

The title says it all really. Hahaha, As of today, I'm left with one more tour (i.e one morning shift and one night shift) of my shift work before I officially conclude my journey as a Police National Service (PNS) Officer. I'm not really sure how to feel about it tbh. All this while I really really wanted to get my National Service (NS) over and done with but right now as it is coming to an end, I don't want it to end just yet. I knew I would feel like this from the start, but that doesn't make me feel any better haha. Things are great for me personally within my team, but sadly it's time to say goodbye. Been a major rollercoaster ride as Neighbourhood Police Centre Officer (NPCO) but I'm glad I could go on this ride - even though I may not have fulfilled the height criteria to go on this rollercoaster ride ;) hahaha. Alright gonna pause rn to settle some stuff first before I come back to continue talking about my post ORD plans. Update: Today is the
