Guess who's back
back again
letal's back
tell a friend
WTF LOL.Gg.
It feels so empty without me.
Kay look guys. Today i woke up early at 6+, and left home at 7. Reached school at around 7.45 andwaited for Melvin Chng because to check our Geog IHE paper. I got 19/30, and made some careless mistakes. Like the question on Kobe Earthquake and Killari, i didn't compare and lost marks!
After that, i went to buy some food! 2 packs of char siew rice and 2 packets of chicken. I took the lift, walked the corridor, walked down two flights of staircases, then i took the key out of my bag, slotted it into the lock, and turned. So, i unlocked the gate, then placed the other key into the lock for the main door and opened that one too.
Next, i walked into the house and locked the door and gate. I threw the keys to one side and dropped the packets of rice to one side. I put my bag down, then walked to my laptop, bent down and hit the Power button. Then, i walked to my kitchen and opened the fridge door. I reached down for the Soya Bean milk packet and placed it near the sink. Then, i took a glass and washed it by rinsing it with water. Then, my right hand took hold of the SOyabean milk packet and poured some milk into the glass, until it's like 80 percent full.
Then, i placed the soyabean milk packet back into the fridge and closed tthe fridge door.
Gg.

EOYS start tomorrow
let's rumble
don't fumble, don't tumble, don't stumble, don't crumble,
Politics is really fucking dirty, despicable. I really hate it. The struggle for power, the abuse of power, that irks that hell out of me. I got into some sort of argument with this person called negi, and he started throwing some threats that he had more power in the community and could get the moderators to ban me/suspend me etc. Fortunately, this was a game forum, and i didn't care that much about it. We sort of mutually patched things up at the end, but this threatening and abuse of power really hit me hard.
I already felt a sense of injustice over a game forum, even though it wasn't that big of a deal, my sense of injustice was really overwhelming. Then i started drawing parallels of this politics with...real-life.
The nazi's against the jews, you hear about it very often but only when i underwent this sorta politics power that i truly appreciated how shitty it must have felt being a jew. I seriously think that if i suffered the same as they did, having their jobs being ripped and shredded, having to suffer under the empowerment of a supposedly superior race, when you goddamn know it isn't true.
It's true, we're extremely lucky to be living in a society of religious harmony. Some people say a perfect religious harmony or even the notion of it is impossible, but those are only scratching the surface of the whole concept, picking out on minor flaws. A tolerance, that another person has a different belief, just that simple tolerance is enough to suffice. A tolerance that can be brought up by birth, just like racist ideals, or even religious ideals that are weaved into a child's mind.
But even as i give props to our Singapore Government for the tremendous job they've done, the messing around with mr brown incident is another example of dirty politics going on. What the fuck was the sg government thinking of? It was thinking that mrbrown's column would somehow throw it in a bad light.
Well, obviously their action backfired. Everywhere i read support for Mrbrown's article, and condemnation at another attempt of the sg govt to get the citizens to shut the fuck up and listen to them. The only people with a voice in Singapore's ongoings are probably the ministers.
I agree that the you can't have strikes ongoing in Singapore, our "reputation" and our "economy" would take a really heavy blow. It's not about whether the opposition wins or not, it's not about whether there its a 1 party domination. I don't give a fuck if there's only one person to rule the entire world, what matters is that the person must be capable.
The sg govt is capable, but inevitably, it will miss out problems, ignore problems, problems that only the citizens can identify. They might spot problems, but can they spot the magnitude of it? It's not a matter of freedom of speech, it's a matter of voicing problems your own country is facing. mr brown got sacked by Today. Politics for the lose? That's just ridiculous, i thought mr brown was doing something positive for the country, but his job got whacked, just like that.
Oppresion? Injustice? You think it all ends here for him? Perhaps not. Taxes can be manipulated, housing loans, etc etc. And they can be done below the covers. Luckily, mrbrown has enough fame, to garner the support of many people as well as organisations to sponsor. He will survive.
Oh and that shit about how he's a partisan player? Please, rules can and have always been bended, its just a matter of whether the person in power allows for it or not. There's probably a limit or restriction to this idea that i always wondered why governments didn't take up.
Why doesn't the government simply explain its measures, and i mean making it truly an important point of explaining. Yes, the media does give coverage on these policies, but the MEDIA ITSELF is under the thumb of the government. Why not have a newspaper where citizens can write in, and the government employ people to respond. Make it a TRULY important aspect of the country's ongoings, to compensate for the 1 party domination and inability to hold strikes.
Give it so much attention, put so much emphasis on it, that there actually is a space for people to express their concerns. Make a 1 hour compulsory lesson discussing the articles in it for all singapore schools, let everyone understand what is going on.
If you want a peaceful, yet two-way discussion, a space to express opinions instead of mindless obedience, then you have to make put lots of emphasis on it. If you simply want the people to be mindlessly obedient, watch as the country goes deeper and deeper into shit as people leave it (like they already are), leave it, leaving a bigger void to fill up. A void that worsens as the days go by.
