I've been thinking...

Since the 12 GE..a few things have come to my mind..

-Why wasn't our first "angkasawan" the female Indian engineer?

-I found a lost friend... http://dinmerican.wordpress.com/

-Why do people write "Chinese" when asked their nationality in our forms when they have a malaysian ic?

-Will I still be treated as a second class citizen, now that the government has changed a little? Or will I be better off being treated as a second class citizen in another country? And I really will miss my parents if I were to leave.

-Cancer sucks!!! And on that note, life is precious and I waste too much time worrying about the small things.

-Online serves the best draught and the best hokkien mee and the best ribs and the best lamb curry and now I'm HUNGRY.

-Will the PM step down?

-Why don't I get invited to Nuffnang stuff?Oh right..I don't check my mail.

-Since there are now so many of us, should we form a new race based political party? MChA, as in Malaysian Chindian Association? Of which my kids can't join cos by then, they'd only be "suku" Indian, so not really Chindian, and hence form a new party called MSA..Malaysian Suku Association?

-PUNDAK.....hehehehe..go look it up.

-So many people voted opposition in the Peninsula..if it weren't for Sabah and Sarawak, it would be an opposition parliament today.

-You really can't take it with you, no matter how big and grand the palace.

-Goodbye bad comb over! He should have seen it coming..oh well, farewell..( I rhymed!!!)

-Weddings are hard to plan, especially when it coincides with moving house..

-The elections was more fun and more talked about and joked about than any daytime soap..eat your heart out, Bold and the Beautiful!

-I didn't read any "news" in the Star before the elections..it was full of advertisements. Now, it's full of condemnation. I now read, the "alternative" media.

-Why do people love creating trouble? Just lose with dignity lah!

-If you're born an Indian, why can't you proud of that? Why must you insist on calling yourself by another race? Does it make you a better person? A better Malaysian?

-Bangsa Malaysia! Bangsa Malaysia! Bangsa Malaysia! Say it with me!!! Finally, someone's making sense.

-Will someone please throw away those history books they have the kids reading these days?

-Someone really re-wrote them, didn't they?

-Seriously, Online Pub..best draught, food and thats where all the best conversations are

-Why the heck won't blogger allow a space between the lines??????

Stairwells

Stairwells function in many ways. One very obvious one is as a smoking joint. Never mind that there is a no smoking sign, that's where one should drag on a fag...it's common knowledge, the sign, is actually to point out where one SHOULD smoke, not where one SHOULD NOT.

Second function of a stairwell, is as a make out joint..especially dark, secluded ones. If you wanna hide your amorous adventures, that's the place the do it. After all, them smokers wouldn't bat an eyelid, they're just there for their nicotine fix, not for the entertainment. If doubtful, carry on in areas FAR from the no smoking sign. An occasional irritated dentist might walk by and advise you to get a room...but that doesn't happen in all stairwells.

One other use for the stairwell is as a place to take a break..you can have lunch ( while having a smoke) or even take a short nap. Just be mindful of the occasional spit that these smokers leave behind as a legacy. Again, when in doubt, stay clear of the no smoking sign.

I guess that's it..oh wait, stairwells are also useful for one other purpose, going up or down floors..but then, it's hardly used as that, so...shouldn't even have mentioned it.

Don't tailgate..you might not get married...

For the reading pleasure of my single, unattached friends...

10 things a singleton does not appreciate.

1) Time for friends:
Face it lar..you're friends take a back seat to that special someone, it happens.

2) Time for yourself:
Time spent shopping will be halved, as the other half, would rather do something else.

3)The freedom to drop everything and go...where the wind blows..:
Unless other half wants to drop everything as well, which in most cases, unlikely.

4)Making plans for yourself:
Have to include the other person also mah..correct right?

5)Flirting shamelessly with everyone :
When you're single, nothing to lose, right? Why not? When you're attached..not such a good idea.

6)Party like there's no tomorrow :
Unless other half is a party animal as well. Gets more complicated when kids are involved..or parents for that matter. Your gf's parents might not appreciate you bringing home their daughter at all odd hours of the night.

7) Deal with difficult questions:
Like, when is your big day? When are you two tying the knot? When will we see mini versions of you? But then, singletons also get this annoying question. But you can reply..I haven't found the right one..easy. Couple's can't.

8) Worry about the future:
As in saving money to get married. Hey, weddings aren't cheap, ok? Plus you have to think about buying a place to live and all sorts of other financial troubles. Kids aren't cheap either you know..and there's the worry about how to feed,clothe and educate the fellas...it's like a 20 plus year worry.

9) Share space with another person:
It's not easy living with another person, especially if you're the territorial type. Or if the other half is..

10) Deal with "eccentricities" of other half:
You know, the farts, the nose digging, the toilet seat up...etc.

But for the record...am currently not missing single life that much..heh.
