SINGAPOREANS ARE SO..SO...

hello world and lets take a moment to thank God its friday!!
the weekend begins now, but plans activate in T-minus 0230hrs and so for now i shall exploit my thursday night.

it all began with mt mom's hints that she wanted smth and BROWNIES at that. so i decided to be proactive and nip down to taka where they have the best brownies in the world (second to my mom's of course that goes without saying), and get them for my mom as a surprise. and here's what i learn.

how come singaporeans have not seen a number three air force kit in their lives!!??!! for you dimwits who dont know what it is (dont worry i still love you) its the light blue short sleeved top with two pockets and shoulder pads and a pair of dark blue pants with a belt completed with a pair of black shoes. now you know.

SO WHY ON THIS GREEN EARTH DO PEOPLE STARE LIKE I'M WEARING THE AL-QAEDA UNIFORM!!!??!! and it was friggin incessant staring on the NEL!! and even in town when i got there! and furthermore can you blinkin asses look at the floor at the yellow lines onthe platform that says to give way to alighting passengers??? its like a scrum in a damn rugby match. minus me being able to make you keel over in pain!! ugh...

and just when i think SINGAPOREANS ARE SO..SO...
i get a surprise.a pleasant surprise

after battling rush hour crowds to secure a boxful of chocolatey treats, i decide to accompany the girlfriend (who was so nice as to accompany me in the first place) to eat dinner at the wisma foodcourt (oneofdabestinspore) and at the top of the escalator, i held the door open for her while sht stepped in, and i saw another lady a couple of metres behind me. so i stood there for an added second for her as well. (i do this our of habit) AND SHE SAID THANKS!!! most SINGAPOREANS walk on like i am paid to open the door for them!! sad sad culture.sigh...
and then after the eating, in my excitement, i accidentally spill the drink on the table,some of which rolls off onto my lap and i jerked the chair back suddenly. and the lady behind me didnt glare at me like i expected! she said "no,no dont worry abt it" and rushed (RUSHED) to get her tissue pack out and offered me the whole thing!!

wouldn't you know...
SINGAPOREANS REALLY ARE SO..SO...

this is a brilliant production//
