Have been told that my blog is more of like a public domain rather than a personal space. But hey,isn't a blog somewhere whereby I wana write what I wana write right? If this is all that I want to say and that just by pure coincidence that words of this blog spread around,it's not my fault right?

Last night was a sorrowful,dejected night for some of us. I'm sorry that today there is no entertaining entry that can bring a smile to your face here,because last night after what happened,I couldn't muster a smile too.
As many of you probably read from my previous entry,last night 30 Sept was The Last Dance at Rush,where they are going to close down after last night.And so,after a booze-fuelled bbq at Serangoon 13siao zai dui down at palm grove avenue,we made our way down to Mohd Sultan.That was without some form of drama and delay as 1 of the 13siao zha fits,"the fisherman", went around in a drunken frenzy and his more than 100kg frame needed more than a few people to restrain him from jumping into his fish pond. It needed some soothing and talking to by 13siao Ti Kor before he stops his crazy antics.However,the delay would have meant that a crowd has already been steadily building at Rush. At 2145,1 of 13siao ginas Micah Lewis informed us that a small crowd was already queuing up outside the club.we managed to reach there at around 2300,where indeed a substantial crowd is already there.Just as we were collecting money,2 vans from the police came down and performed a raid on the premises.I supposed they were checking for safety breach in terms of crowd size as they ordered everyone in the club to leave. I was amazed at the number of people that came out from the club.Those who have been to 1 of those clubs in the past along the MS stretch will know that every club is of the same size,and that it is small,at most maybe filling up to 500 people?However,it took about 15min of endless streaming of ppl to exit the club.From there,we knew we had a uphill task of getting in. After more than 30 min of delay,those who were inside the club initially were given the priority to get in first,while some who already had entered were denied entry due to the capacity of the club maxing out.
As we hung our heads and proceeded to our contingency plan,a movie at Cineleisure,we knew that nothing could have made up for what happened tonight.Personally,even a date with hottie Fiona Xie could not have compensated me for what happened.As fate would be,there were no movies that we wanted to watch at Cine, and so we headed straight home.
There is just 1 question hanging in my head.Why did the police have to spoil the show,knowing that it's the last night? I know that such overcrowding in a small confined area can be a disaster,but after 3 years of partying at this place known as a heaven for Eurodance,do you really expect that only meagre numbers would turn up.The police have longed targeted techno clubs as they always have the conception that these are places where people always like to cause trouble.But can't they just give some leaway for just 1 last night? Recent articles in the newspaper forums have complained about the police being a generally unsympathetic bunch who find the slightest chance to fault innocent civilians for small mistakes.E.g penalizing someone for cutting into the bus lane even if he's about to make a left turn soon. However,now I have experienced first hand about the unsympathetic,cold attitude of the police. To the Singapore Police Force : a big thumbs-down for you. I would spare you all from more blasting from this blog as yours truly is a well-educated gentleman here.

On a final note, a big salute to everyone who showed support by turning up at Rush,kudos for all the people who replied to my call in a previous entry in my blog to attend the Last Dance. However,nothing can mask the fact that Rush will be here no more,and that we did not have the chance to party at that marvellous haven for 1 last time.
Bye, Rush. Thanks for the times .
