a coloured commentary

i really think if i mention the word 'Singapore' those prying journalists will just find me on google and sound out my thoughts on modern society. -i just did. and i'm saying this because i do, for once, have something to contribute to the thinking scene. (rarely, untruthfully so)

i read in the forum, on separate days-
#1. this person complained about the Registry of Marriages spelling 'solemnise' solemniZe. the incriminating Z! how dare they. and advised that the standard of English must be upheld rigorously, to an alphabet, thank you very much.
#2. someA woman complained about paying 3cents extra at Swensons or someplace because the bill rounded up instead of down. [sorry, but uh, what CAN you buy with 3 cents? okay. maybe if you collect 33.3 X 3 cents, you can go to the dollar store and buy half a sock. gasp! but..]

sometimes singaporeans, from the inability to discuss more mature, politically relevant issues- such as the white party, (we are oppressed by the OB markers, are we?) turn toward bread-and-butter issues instead. not only bread and butter, its MSG & margarine- artificial, superficial, a layer of cheap seasoning and unhealthy marsh.

hehe. tongue-in-cheek sounds mischievous, but actually its an everyday occurence, ever thought about it? foot-in-the-mouth is more unusual, and is probably what im doing now.

went swimming today and saw the crescent moon. at 6pm. its like a biscuit, or a chip of porcelain. and wondered about my future profession. considering: advertising, journalism (?!), law, psychology, architecture.
and once ive earned enough money i will 1. travel overseas to US, UK, maybe africa or israel. 2. open a shop designing either clothes, shoes, or bags.
see? so many options in an uncoloured dreambook. once i start colouring it in, with A level results and university course, the picture becomes clearer and more defined, but also more restricted.
