Current state of mind: Psychotic.


Well hello. I haven't blogged for quite a while, and the waiting for release of results next Tuesday is driving me NUTS.

OF course, there really are better things in life for me to worry about, and there could worse things happening to me right now... like, being pregnant (CHOY) , being broke,having the country being torn in war etc...Count my blessings...maybe.


I have just realised that the Lunar 7th month aka the Hungry Ghost Festival is starting from tomorrow onwards. I've got people telling me not to go out at night. Speaking of which, the related posts on FB are pretty amusing.

Singapore turns 48 today . :D Huat ah. I realise that when we tell people " Oh look at you, so grown up now!" , the unintended meaning is probably that " grown up = messed up" .

Don't you find that we get more messed up as we get older? We talk about sex issues as if we were having a dinner table conversation, and talk about relationships (whether new or failed) like the daily paper. All of these make me wonder whether growing up is really worth it.


On the other hand, I'm one of a kind. People wish they were kids again so they'd have no worries, but I always couldn't wait to grow up. To me, growing up is a form of independence; financially and psychologically.
I no longer have to depend on my parents for pocket money, and I no longer have to worry about how my actions are being judged by them. Simply said, I'm fully responsible for my own well being. I have never wished to be a kid again, because I really like the feeling of independence. I don't even rely on any forms of approval from le boy or any other people for my actions and thoughts.  I know some girls do, and may call this "finding The One" to change for, but I think it's really stupid anyway. That being said, I accept compliments from anyone graciously, because it shows that someone appreciates something about you, but it doesn't form a major part of my character.

"Oh I like your makeup today!" "Nice dress!" "Nice ass!" (lol, born with it babeh) "I like your fb statuses, they're always so amusing"

Positive little things like these remind me that not everything in life is to be cynical about, and that there's always something to be appreciated about someone.


...Okay I think the above statement is the most humane thing I've ever said so far lol.

Here's wishing Singapore a happy 48th birthday, with many more prosperous years to come! You've done a pretty decent job of growing so far, providing us with a safe haven to grow up in. Though I don't know for how many more of your birthdays I'm gonna be staying here, thank you for being such a great place to live in! *clinks champagne glass*
