Issues

I have issues with certain kind people. and it annoys me a whole lot.

#1
Mind your language. Dont speak as if you own this (cyber) world. Im quite amazed how people can express themselves to the extent that they need to use vulgarities in replace of a fullstop. Freedom of speech and it's your personal space? you talk. you rant whatever you want? think again. snowball effect. Those horrible words you use tell others how wide your vocabulary is. Those words can be used at the appropriate time and place. Let's take for example- you are really mad at that point of time. Probably one or two words of those would be alright (just to vent it out) but using it like any other punctuation mark?!? And I dont see anything wow about replacing -insert any vulgarities here- after every sentence. Give this a thought.

A couple stole my seat today on the train. I'm quite sure I don't usually rant about people stealing my seats because I'm always giving them up anyway. I just cannot stand the fact that JUST BECAUSE you are a couple you get priority with the seats. I mean it's so easy right, the girl keeps clinging onto the guy's hand like a koala and then she happily wants one of the two available seats, pulls the guy along, the stupid guy puts his hand out to GUIDE her to the seat that is one step away and both of them end up sitting down when it is how obvious I wanted to take the freaking seat already. HELLO!?! The worst was seriously having to stand right infront of them, reading the papers, constantly glancing in their direction because the girl is doing ridiculous things like BITING HIS EAR, leaning onto him like there's no tomorrow and proceeding to use his lap as a pillow. The guy will then lean on her body and omg... they can become Performing Sculpture Art!!! Urgh.

Such horrible people exsist. even in this gracious society (or so they claimed). tsk.

I had four hours of break and the group didnt want to have any meetings for the upcoming presentation(s) cause we're so called on track for most of it(?). Just left with the final touch up. Anyways, I ended up at the library and was browsing through articles over the net and I came across Marina Barrage. Many have buzz bout this place but I havent got a chance to be there physically. So I decided to google it. It only takes a click anyway.

Singapore's latest downtown icon.


Built across the mouth of the Marina Channel, the Marina Barrage creates Singapore’s 15th reservoir, and the first in the heart of the city. With a catchment area of 10,000 hectares, or one-sixth the size of Singapore, the Marina catchment is the island’s largest and most urbanised catchment. Together with two other new reservoirs, the Marina Reservoir will boost Singapore’s water catchment from half to two-third’s of the country’s land area.


The Marina Barrage is the result of Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew’s vision nearly two decades ago when he envisaged damming the mouth of the Marina Channel to create a freshwater reservoir. [Credits/Read more ]

The other day the boys wanted to drive there but due to unforeseen circumstances, tak jadi. tsk. So anyone else wanna drive me there? hahaha. or do I have to end up driving there myself? hmmm. hints. more like a smack that Nin! It's 25th November today! approximately one month away and I hope to bid goodbye to the center (inside joke with Afzal the other day. muahaha!)

Speaking of Afzal, he's my primary school mate. those Simei Associated clicks back then. Audrey, Maisarah, Azri, Jannah, Faizal... I cant remember who else. He lives across the bridge. Recently we got in touched through friendster. and then, he added me on msn and yeah. Amazing how he still remembers me when we were'nt even in the same class. but I'm more than certain if not for our mommys, we wont know each other. Internet is such a wonderful thing aye? Okay. To a certain extent that is.

Alright. I Find myself ranting alot these days. could go on if not for the niceeeee weather. It's gonna RAIN!!! I love rainy days. Gotta catch some nap now. and wake up later to doodle abit of biology? I'll see how. Ciao bananas!

Lots of love, Nin.
