LAUGHING MY ASS OFF
Listening - Nothing
THE MOMENT OF TRUTH HAVE ARRIVED. I'M SO LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.
don't mind what's written on top, it's none of your business. get on with the entry.
well, my individual project was completed, but i need some help from the lecturer. i just hate using frames. FRAMES SUCKS BIG TIME. i hope i can do without frames. but still, there's some major assed problem waiting for me. Visual Basic. don't you just hate it when things doesn't go your way? well, it is for me.
these few days have been boring to me. doing projects, eat, sleep and play guitar. nothing else. i was so bored, i'm actually reading facts about singapore on wikipedia last night. i was just browsing through the informations of bands like dimmu borgir, COB, sinergy and slipknot. i read every page of their band members. when i reached slipknot, they are introducing the LIVE 9.0 CD which say it's recorded at which countries, singapore being one of them. there's a link to it, so i just clicked on it and read about singapore. talk about boring.
i was like watching lame assed television programs just now. but then when i switched it to channel news asia, WOW. singapore's government finally decided to do something about the english educating system in singapore. it's the failing rates of english in singapore that wakes them up. well, this point, i will elaborate later on. on with english. some caucasian was interviewed. he's someone who established an english school in singapore for more than 10 years and what he says is true. singaporeans are too contented with their standard of english.
just by exchanging a few words, you can get a vague idea of singaporeans' english. i'm talking about the general public. not about those who went overseas and came back with your english full of accent and those who attained PhD in Literature. a challenge that singaporeans face, holding a proper english conversation. i am ashamed of myself for my poor command of english. well, at least i do give it a thought.
back to the government. well, you see, government implement things AFTER things happens. for instance, dengue fever, proper english, the recent massage parlour shit. they are more interested in implementing things that burdens us rather than things that are to the well being of the human race. just moments ago, i saw on the papers, that cab fare's going to have a rise in basic fee again. well, you might say it's just 10 cents. THAT'S THE POINT! it's just 10 cents. i see no reason in raising it.
when dengue fever hits, then they start getting panicky and such. let's just see what they will do after the dengue virus fades off.
the recent massage parlour shit? it's not that those reality shows on Channel U did not go into these issues. they did in fact go and do some research over it and get it aired. what did the government do? watch, then keep quiet. then when there's case of a female getting murdered in massage parlour like what happened recently, then they start implementing those laws here and there. they want the law to take effect almost immediately, leaving no rooms for those in the industry to adapt with the new law. then they start fining them. it's $7k - $9K mind you. you have to think how many people must they service and massage before getting back that amount.
recently, i was made to do a survey for a friend of mine. it's say, something about hepatitis virus. one question was asked. do you know that the government is actually running a compaign on hepatitis? i'm totally oblivious to it and i believe most of you are not aware of it too. they made a campaign and they are not made known to the public? redundant i must say.
not that i'm looking down at the government. just look at the SARS outbreak, when it hits, the government gets panicky. now that it's peaceful and all, nothing's taken into consideration. the last time i received the SARS package, was last year in ITE. nothing was made known to the public to let them know that there's still risks of getting that virus. pardon my words, but if SARS hit again, the government will get panicky again. just wait and see.
wow, to think a 19 year old boy like me can think of all these stuff and not those ministers sitting in the parliament. i can run for the next election as a private candidate....
