The reason why I prefer dogs to humans.

I hate living in Singapore and I hate the Singaporean mentality. It’s so ugly, ugly, ugly!

True, not all Singaporeans are kiasu, money-minded, petty, arrogant, sheltered, narrow-minded and ungracious. But it is a sad fact that the descriptions above are applicable to at least ½ of the citizens here.

It’s disgusting. And extremely embarrassing.

I’m sorry if this comes across as harsh, but I do honestly think it’s true. Feel free to correct me if you think I’m wrong though.

I often wonder, what is our government doing? Spending tons of money building world class infrastructure for schools, businesses and pumping money into our economy but where is the dough for educating her citizens in graciousness?

It is very difficult for me to accept the uncouthness of my fellow citizens when I know Singapore has world class instructure, a booming economy and is a highly developed country. What excuse is there for acting like some coarse, uneducated, low-class arse when you have everything you need? Or should I blame the parents?

Why can’t people here just be more gracious? Why can’t they say “excuse me” when they want to move past? Why must they push? Why must they pile their buffet plates with more than they can eat? Why do they queue for hours for a free cheapo item that costs less than S$1? Why are they not environmentally conscious and think it’s a right to litter? Why are the people obsessed with money, cars, and other petty material gains?

Can’t they see the bigger picture?

Bah.

the yada yada of a boring day

Yay! My leave application has been approved! Isn't it great?! Now i can go on the holiday that i so need.

But before that, i need to bitch a little bit. Now...what the hell is wrong with good looking people? Why do most of them walk around with their noses in the air and expect people to grovel at their feet.

I just find it so irritating...well, probably also out of jealousy cuz i know i dun fall within the "most beautiful people" category.

In case you were wondering, this is what happened (which is nothing much actually).

My current office used to the a Kodak image studio or somethng like that. And the shitty building i am working in, also happens to house a modelling agency (or a few maybe). Every so often, we are treated to the sight of modelly type ladies sauntering around and across the carpark.

Anyway, 2 of this girls appeared outside our door this afternoon to collect photos. They peered in, stared at me ( i happen to sit in the direct line of sight when you stand at the door) and looked as if we owed them something. Helloooo....Couldn't they see the BIG signboard hanging outside our door with our company name??? Bah.

I dunno...Maybe im jealous. But then again, im really pissed that the world falls at the feet of beautiful people. Well, while my dear friend has ever mentioned that being beautiful doesn't mean being a better person, i guess some people are just born to be more equal than others.

Bah.
