Woo hooo...
Wooo hooo... Hee, I have decided that I shall come n post a little something to show that I have actually been reading up even though I didnt post or tag anything. Well, to ah pek's entry, I also wan to comment man.... I was at home when I heard on the news that 2 guys were caught and blah blah, you all know the story. First thing that pops into my mind is 'Huh? U mean pple actually got fined and prisoned juz becuz of some comment made abt racist riots?' Or sth like that lah. I nv really go n check out the full details. Seriously, is that really such a big issue? N I rem some big shot (but I cannot rem exactly who) talking about freedom of speech in Singapore to a CERTAIN extent. Actually it's rather true lah, one should nv be bringing up race-related topics but fined n imprisoning seems too harsh a punishment. I mean, their lives are ruined. Sigh...n that woman also very the eng hor? I was still wondering how come got someone go read and find out.
This incident goes to show we are all going to be frogs in the well very very the soon. Also, it suddenly brings back certain memories of when I was in the US. One day at work, this fren of mine was suddenly telling me that he's really proud to be an American becuz America is a free country. Stupid me was like...free country?? So wat? Singapore also free country wat....ok lah, maybe we're not an independent country for as long as US is, but still free mah. Wat is the big deal man? Then I realised that he meant free as in really FREE....freedom of speech, freedom of whatever they wan to do basically. I mean I actually heard that pple there smoke marijiuana, watch porn (not online kind somemore) etc, even heard of illegal immigrants lor. In fact, one woman actually told us that SHE is an illegal immigrant. I almost yundao. For six yrs already somemore. Best lah, think maybe US is too big bah. So even if someone makes a remark, it might take a great ton of effort b4 stirring something real big. N in our case, we are too small to afford any trouble caused by a few miserly remarks. I dunno, but somehow I guess this shld be the main reason bah.
I guess I sort of grew up more in the US, seeing and experiencing stuff that I will nv ever be able to find in small n strict Singapore. Also, I think that the woman who went to complain rite, if she's in the States, she wont only be blacklisted. I guess she'll prob be killed by now. Hahahha... hmmm...I guess I shld end here bah. This seems like a real serious entry, esp when it's coming from me. And my usual entries are fei hua and more fei hua and yah, fei hua. Maybe seeing ah pek's entry inspired me bah, or maybe I'm juz too bored. Hahahaha....
Well, one last thing,
my dear husband-to-be and the future kaima of my kids, I seriously dunno wat I wan lah. All I want is a msg to me on my birthday to wish me happy birthday k or a call also can?? AND THIS GOES OUT TO EVERYONE IN S44!!!! Hee, MUST wish me hor? No excuse for forgetting....muahaaahahhhaa....oh no, I must have gotten some ego waves from spider liao...hahahahaha...ok lah, better go n start studying liao. Spent a lot of time typing this. Plus got a stupid bahasa test next wk. Hee.... see some of u'll at the HSBC TTW this sunday!!! *another attempt to help deb advertise*
