Screw them
AhhHHHhhhHhh.Very Angry now.
Recalled what my boss ask me during lunch. My boss ask me a question today, are you proud to be a Singaporean? My answer is Yes/No. Sounds dumb... I know it does... it is as if I never answered her question. Let me just explain my rational behind this answer.
Being proud
I am proud to be a Singaporean when I am representing myself as an individual. An example will be as an oversea exchange program student. For those who are not aware, I went Germany for half a year for an exchange program. I am glad that I was a Singaporean. A huge part is due to the stability and economy of Singapore. We might not have the best but I can safely say that I can walk around the street in the middle of the night without any worries.
Another fact is that I am proud of being an Asian and living in Singapore. I am proud to say that despite the distance of all my relatives, we still remain in close contact. Maybe I do not see that in my classmates back then... but I am glad I did keep that bond in our family.
Not being proud
Will you ask discount from street artists? I will not... and I feel disgusted when most Singaporeans do that. And the fact... they can be so proud of it... This was what happened in New Zealand... This Singaporean was asking from a street artist after he finished painting her protrait. She was not very satisfied and insisted on a discount... HELLO!!!!!!
Next... would be the Kiasu, Kiasee nature.. I know I do have some flaws as well. But I do not go around driving a Mercs and getting free textbooks.
Lastly... would be the nature of my work.. I am handling a project whereby I can see how unreasonable and greedy Singaporeans can be. Unreasonable as in it is their fault and can write in to complain about how bad we are.. Greedy... you should see the amount of fictitious accounts created just to redeem for items and yet wanna point fingers. Gosh...
Why am I writing such crap?... well... just wanna pen down my frustration after suspending like.. 70 accounts.. due to greedy, unreasonable motherfucking people.

I am a dumb ass
It is shit when friends like to dig out something which have been left buried in the heart. It is past, it is something meant to be forgotten.... so why bring it out? Just suddenly felt all the emotions gushing out and my mind cannot seem to stop thinking of it. Have I really forgotten about it? The answer... I never did and I guess I never will... til I can officially throw that bloody ring away. How many years ago was that? I cannot seem to recall... I really really need some peace.
