What it takes to be Singaporean (uniquely Singaporean)

Thinking of how to be a Singaporean? Here are some ways!


Methhod 1 : Kiasu-ism

" More and more parents succumb to kiasu - ism when they enrol their child in countless programmes and activities before the child can walk"

Kiasu-ism does not necessarily be bad. It can drive you to greater heights and allow you to survive the competitiveness in Singapore

Method 2: Complain to Government when ever you can

Singaporeans complain about everything from the trivial things of being unable to get a seat on buses to important things of econonmics. Complain and you will fit just right in! Especially when you complain as a huge group, you will get what you want (most of the time) .

Method 3: Tissue packs as reservation equipment

Place your tissue pack on the table in a coffee shop and the table is yours! How convenient!

Do not use the tissue when you see them they are not free!!!!

Method 4: Singlish

Add a 'lah' or a 'hor' behind your sentence when you are speaking and you will be 'better' understood. It takes time to learn..... But when you are good at it, it comes naturally.

Method 5: Just Queue

Whenever you see a queue, just join it! You may be getting yourself free stuff or finding something good to eat!

Reflections of 2009 - TIME

2009 has ended. Gone are the times of 2009, but the bitter sweet memories don't. All the first times. all the new friends, all the regrets....... are nothing but memories. Time is a special thing that once gone, is gone. What regrets that I have will be with me forever, the pain and the misery. But the happiness that has just gone by, is priceless. 

What I want to achive in life is my choice and yours is yours. You and I have many choices. From the most basic of what to eat for breakfast to the more complicated one of what I want to do in the future. It is all about making the right choices. Whatever time that past and you cannot 'hold' them anymore. All the downs and ups installed for you in you future time, you do not know. All that you can change, is the time now. So what are you waiting for? Set goals now!
