Searching for someone who can lie down with me on a beach, underneath the blinking stars, and just talk for the whole night...

I have missed this interesting incident in my last post which happened yesterday.
When i alighted the bus and was waiting to cross the pedestrian on my way home after the interviews, there were two men wearing some sort of security uniform waiting for the traffic light on the opposite. then there was this couple standing on my left and a malay man standing on my right. we were all waiting patiently for the 'greenman'.Then when seeing that the road was empty, the two men in uniforms opposite started crossing the road. The four of us on this side stayed put though, and were looking at the men in uniforms with interest. At first i thought they were just some random security guards, but when they came nearer, i saw the handguns on their sides, i realised that they were policemen. This becomes more interesting, isn't it? 2 policemen were actually jaywalking, while four law-abiding citizens were waiting patiently for the green light, and of course, observing this very ironic scene.
so we stared at the two policemen throughout the course of their jaywalking. and the policemen seemed oblivious, or rather, chose to act oblivious to our glares, and were chatting happily when they were crossing the road. When the two of them came within a close distance, the malay man blurted out something which really surprised me, "Can jaywalk arh?" It was too loud not to be heard by policemen and i noticed that their expression jerked for a moment and regained their happy composure quickly. and then walked on.
deep inside my heart, i was like, "wtf, well said man" and i suddenly had a sense of respect for the malay man . then, the green light turned on.
the two policemen had made a lot of sacrifices within this 10 seconds indeed. sacrificing the image and reputation of policeman, as well as the singaporean police force, for 10 seconds of personal convenience. well done. good job. should present them with the "most sacrificed award".
