Bush is actually the very last messenger of god. Heh. I seriously will not ever believe that. He somehow claims that indirectly laa. He claims that god asked him to invade Iraq and Afghanistan. Cool eh. He's the very last unless there is a more junior bush ah. Funny laa he. Who'd imagine bush waging holy war. Tell him something. God never love the starters of war.
I quit.

After reading a certain blog, i wondered what could make me very happy. What really is happiness and what could be my eternal bliss? Nothing comes to mind right away. Whatever i think of now, i reflected on my faith. Am i allowed to do such stuffs? Am i allowed to do such stuffs just to have eternal bliss? I know my religion well enough to know what's allowed and what's not. I know why im living in this world. I know my purpose but i want to choose something else. Im not saying i want to change my religion or anything of that sort. Im just considering what i could do to have my eternal bliss and not go against my faith. I know damn well what i should be doing but i chose not to. I dunno why. I know it'll probably definitely bring me joy and peace of mind. But i just feel like now is not the time to do it. I want to enjoy stuffs. I think. I think im over it, maybe im not. Maybe getting married to a loving wife and adorable kids and having a great job will make me happy. Will it? Need i do more to achieve happiness? What is it like to have complete joy of an occasion? Will i be very happy if tomorrow i become the world's richest man? What will be of me after 1 year of being the world's richest man? Could i end up lonely with fake friends? Could i go somewhere, where no one is and have joy with all my money being stored in a bank till death do us part? I know i will not be the man i am today in 20 years time. But i hope to keep the good values i have in me for now till then and maybe that will be my eternal bliss. Being able to keep the good and throw the bad. I wish one day someone or something will make me have complete happiness without me doing things i wish i didnt do. I believe that day will come. I hope that day will come. Maybe it's not so hard afterall.

A 3rd blogger got charged for posting racist remarks on his blog. It was his views. But was he too straightforward, just didn't have any limit or is he just trying to provoke his readers? We'll never know. What we know is he tested the limits and he got what he got. Racism has always been a problem everywhere. Can it be solved? I seriously don't know. With Singapore allowing free speech and Singaporeans embracing it with open arms, a lot of us may have gone overboard with using it. Why is it, when there's free speech, everyone seems to one to touch on very delicate, controversial matters? It attracts people one might say. Just like sex sells. All of these comes to show the lack of respect for others and lack of limits. Even critics have limits and etiquettes they follow. Without all these guidelines and limits, what will Singapore or the world be? Views should be shared in a respected manner. We live in a civilised country but why do we act uncivilised? Respect others if you want yourself to be respected. We are all the same colour afterall.

Recently, for the past 2 months or so, I have been taking the mrt almost every day. And I see alot of different antics being displayed while waiting for the train, on the train and alighting from the train. The coolest(well actually not co cool) one I saw while on board the train is when group of aunties board the train. It happens all the time and I bet most of you have seen it. The group of aunties(two or more of them, and usually chinese) usually have an assigned 'seat-finder'. This 'seat-finder' will rush into the train and grab a seat for herself first, then she will scout for seats for her friends and point to empty seats and assigned the friends there. She will only be finished when all her 'group mates' has a seat and is comfortable. All these only happens when there's very limited seats available in the cabin. And one more thing, this 'seat-finders' don't obey the yellow box rule and so do most other ignorant Singaporeans who think they are the only one who's rushing. Maybe we had too many courtesy campaigns. What's the next plan?

I think the government and the education board did a small or rather big mistake when planning and later implementing the now Singapore education system. They created a racial wall. What am i talking about? Im talking about the studying of second languages. When there's second language classes in school(ok, confirm got laa), automatically if your malay, you take malay language and if your chinese you take mandarin. And the Indians and other minorities either take one of the two language or take their second language somewhere else. This created a barrier. The malays become closer among them, the chinese among them. And well the minorities will be in one of the groups. Why don't everyone student take all the languages. English, malay, chinese and hindi/tamil. Okay, it may be a little too much to cope but it's still better than no second languages at all. Right? Say only English and a second language is examinable and the other two just extra subjects. Now if your a malay, you won't be lost the next time all your chinese friends speak in mandarin and likewise for the others. Then, there will be no wall. Everything is bare-naked. There will be indifference and everyone is highly employable. No more language barriers. Everyone speaks english, mandarin, malay and hindi/tamil. But that may still not be enough. Maybe the education board and the government did not make a mistake. Afterall we can't foresee the future right. Maybe our children must learn arabic, french, spanish, italian, thai, tagalog and swahili. In addition to the 4 main languages. Heh. I bet it'll be worse for their children. Ok, im so out of the lane now.
