So m i ready?

been very interesting, this exchange. Not just the experiences of an overseas education and all the travelling n stuff, but also how i have time to tink abt myself, away frm all the influence and distractions. Then, i realise i dunno wat to tink abt myself. damm........
Reflecting on my past, i realise it wasnt a very nice path.
So m i ready for the future?






singlish rox!

It doesnt matter if u add the 'lah's or 'loh's, the distinct singaporean slang when they speak is enuff. Enuff for wat? enuff for other singaporeans to identify u as their counterpart. For example, we were happily skiing at Chicopee ski slope. While queuing up at the ski lift, we were chatting, n out of nowhere, a couple just asked if we were Singaporeans. Whoot! This happened not just once. A NUS student also identified us in a similar manner in skool. It happened to other pple studying here wif us. Cant help but feel a swelling of pride in our distinct slang, our special code, someting truely uniquely singapore.
