living in singapore sucks.
it's fking hot and humid, so it would be a miracle not to sweat.
the traffic system with so darn many traffic lights are stupid,
when u got past 1 red light, another red lights up in front.
even if you are the only car at midnight stranded in front of a red light,
you gotta wait for it to turn green.
SBS isnt any better,
you either get all ur buses coming together, like three 9s coming in a line,
or no 9s at all for 15mins.
whenever u put the frustrations of an SBS bus with a traffic light,
you shortened your life by half an hour,
and you can finish half your mp3's battery.
ERPs are everywhere,
they suck money from your card.
i reckon ERPs will be set up outside lifts next time,
or even at the entrances of shopping centre,
to prevent overcrowding.
EZlink card is the new cashcard.
prices are rising, ministers' pay are rising,
but workers' pay are cut,
or some even faced retrenchment, see the recent bank issue.
well it's important that our ministers have high pay cheques,
so that they will not be corrupted
and make decisions that might only benefit them instead of the country.
talking about integrity.
love the fireworks at countdowns and new years,
oh those are paid by our taxes.
this is not a really green city,
we dont even have a patch of clear water.
every sea or river you see are brown,
or just strewned with rubbish.
we dont have seasons in singapore, neither do we have big waves here.
we are safe,
but we have no sports worth playing.
surfing? nah, no waves.
skiing? nah, no snow.
we only have table tennis.
yes we have other sports, none of which qualify for olympics.
our silver-medal awardists gets loads of money, yay.
foreign talents rock.
we have singapore idol, project superstar, campus superstar etc,
none of which the winner goes beyond our borders.
our idols faded into daily celebrities in local reality shows.
oh did i talk about fellow mates?
u can have 1000000000000000 people queuing to get 1 freebie worth maybe 2 bucks.
we also have so many fashion parades everyday,
quite interesting i might say,
non-proportional clothings, colorblind people, same punk hair everywhere.
also, teenagers have to be home by 11,
or else they will get mugged by robbers
and chased by polices too,
maybe k9s will be used to detect for the presence of under-18s too.
anyway, we have no natural resources,
we only have people, so they gotta be eager learners.
PSLE and OLevels are just part and parcel of life,
if you screw up there goes your future.
wait wait wait,
before you go for olevels,
remember your attire!
short neat hair for boys, nicely tied up fringe for girls.
or no tapering of pants, skirt gotta be only 2cm above knees too.
its important to give good impressions,
of nerds, geeks, little goody-2-shoes-who-dont-ever-grow-up.
what do you learn from Olevels actually?
phythagoras theorem?
oh yea, it's important, so that you can figure out the distance to swim from this shore to the next,
or even the angle of elevation or depression by using it with sine, cosine or tangent.
differentiation is cool too, you get to find the gradient of an quadratic equation.
next time you think of a curve, think differentiation.
wad is the gradient of our sun?
i learnt typicality too, that each exam paper for each subject is only 1 paper,
1 paper is not representative of our capability as a person.
furthermore, ive learnt how well singapore was developed.
our healthcare needs was so successful,
people without income just cant wait to receive quality healthcare.
but wait, i forgot, they cant afford to,
they have no income, no CPF, no medisave.
medifund is provided, but not enough.
its okie, they can mortage their house.
is it safe to mortage actually?
nah, banks unreliable,
economy downturn, we have other markets to depend on,
lets see if there's any progress.
singapore is such a wonderful place.
i love singapore so much that i cant wait to emigrate.

ps: dont bother retaliating or feeling sore about this post if youre some SG-fanatic. its my perspective, go post your own i-love-singapore post if u want.

i simply love this website.
