Saturday, August 9, 2008i was looking at celebrity dawn yang's blog entry about her Singapore patriotism thingy...so i decided to write about my own version of national day and my patriot thing... to me... Singapore is actually quite a nice piece of red dot to live in (yes... seriously) quite a fortunate place... Strategic location, no natural disaster, (SARS is not a natural disaster right?) although its abit too hot and humid at times multi religion, multi racial bla bla bla... huge amount of monetary reserves in Bank Xs, Ys, and Zs tt every country can only dream about having it... good defence force, "wonderful" education system, lease corrupt government, etc etc etc... wat makes me proud to be a Singaporean? basically... its the kiasu culture, the Singlish language, the complain this complain tt attitude... these are some of the unique characteristics of Singaporeans, although it may seem annoying to foreigners (i sometimes find it annoying too... ha! contradicting myself here) lets just say tt like it or not... this is Singapore... this is the way we were brought up... this is the way we've survived for 43 years... if u tell me a turtle hides in its shell when in face of danger is hum ji (no balls/ timid) ... i agree... BUT... this is the way turtles survive, some to 500 years... hence... if singapore survive for 43 years becos of kiasuness and complainess... i'll live with it... and be proud of it... so if ang mohs out there find it disgusted... well... TOO BAD!!! u guys just have to live with it :) on the other hand... i dun really like singapore... in terms of the governance... lets talk about more close to my heart things first... (national services) pay government back with 2 years of my youth... in return... being treated like dogs... (less the collar, kennel, pedigree, and sterlisation, or watever u all call tt... ouch) weekend burnt like forest fire... going out field like heading towards town... Carry On Many Missions And No Day Off, commando lifestyle... giving ur life to Grimreaper (to see if he takes it) just becos u get extra $300 combat allowance... etc etc etc... now something tt is close to everyone else hearts... ERP... supposed to ease off traffic during peak hours... to minimise economical cost, for those doing business la... to civilians... its to minimise the dead weight lost... however... DEAD WEIGHT LOST is a welfare lost to nobody, nothing, it just disappears... how can government benefit from these dead weight lost, by earning all the $$$ taken away by the gantries? (i'm poor in expressing my thoughts... wondering if u guys understand wat am i saying) so... the people here have to accept... suck thumb lor... Taxi drivers are great analyst... if govt gives out incentives... they analyse it as... election's coming... but after tt... they take back everything from u again... (lol) they give u a drumstick, so tt one day they will take back the whole chicken... hahaha... but nevertheless, i just love singapore :) *** Add On*** didn't really watch NDP today as i'm down with HV with wee yong and chang jye... but saw it in the news tt our Flagbearers did a wonderful job :D haha... liang yue was interviewed by the reporters... (i think i saw qing de and sikang during the performance too) WELL DONE FLAG BEARERS!!! Sensei will be proud to know this! the youth in singapore is ready! ready to take over ur noble mission :) got a new phone, Nokia E51 before today's HV... its a great phone... cos got no camera, can bring it into camp... lol ***End of add on*** till then... at the mean time... take care people :) tk's quote of the day : " Feel the Singapore Spirit"
