Bored cause what did i do over the weekend? NOTHING, played some games and thats about it. Excited, why? no not because i struck lottery, fuck i wish i did. one powerball and i am out of here. Excited cause i am going back to singapore. IN MARCH!!! i know i know, still a long way to go but fuck, at least its still something to look forward to. Normally i would stay with my sister but since she moved in with her in law, I find it inappropriate to stay there for too many days. I like to spend some time with my sister though so i m dedicating the first 2 days with her 🙂
I m staying in goodwood park hotel. I was deciding between pan pacific or goodwood since their price are roughly the same, goodwood slightly cheaper but i decided to go with goodwood for various reason.
1 is location; secondly is i see this hotel all the time when we go into orchard and also they won the christmas lighting quite a few times in the past. So its a hotel that I know and yet do not know but it is definitely a iconic place for me. I always keep a look out for this hotel in the past when i took the bus into orchard cause that would meant I am close to my destination.
I have been back singapore for a brief 1 or 2 days last year but this trip it feels like i am going back for a actually holiday. Eating, shopping and going places I have not been before. I know its hard to believe since I live in sg for 15 years but there are alot of place I have yet to visit.
Honestly singapore is a place you love and hate. I hate sg because of its people. Contractive right? I am afterall singaporean as well but singapore is such a competitive place, competitive but not in a good way. Competitive because every tom dick and harry is like trying to judge you, see who drives a nicer car, nicer condo, how much u earn, your wife etc. FUCK THAT. They have eyes so high above their forehead you would think they are checking out their dick sticking out of their head.
Secondly, their language. I can’t stop emphazing this. SINGLIST IS NOT COOL, stop promoting it. So many people are so proud of their singlish they don’t hear themself at times. It seriously annoys the crap outta me. I recall hearing a conversation between 2 sg which goes something like this.
Sg1; real ly? don’t bei deh lah
Sg2: he told me want but i also not sure true or not?
Sg1: aiyo, if real ly like that, den he steady lah.
My god. I feel like turning around and slap them. Yes, people say its part of their culture but there is good culture and there is bad culture. Its like whats the typical stereotype impression sg girls thinks of china girls? well, alot of things they do are part of their culture which may gives others a bad impression. likewise singlish culture gives others a “dumb fuck impression”
Do you know why the government was promoting “speak more mandarin”? Thats because even the government can’t stand hearing singlish everywhere. Either you speak proper english or you fucking go speak mandarin.
