my thoughts for today.
it just occurred to me that i'm that hopeless at music. although i do somewhat regret my decision to quit piano once and for all, i must say that i've definitely felt less stressed since i stopped playing the keyboard. my two younger sisters are rather accomplished in violin. one's already a diploma holder, and the other, grade 8. and mind you, they can't even watch NC16 movies at the cinemas. haha. but hell, i still love music anyway.
today's sociology test was actually kinda tough. i don't think i would be able to do well, but i hope i can at least pass it. though i managed to read through my notes and revised quite a bit, i guess i was just too tired to think properly this morning. well, what i'm saying is.. i could have done better. but dang! why do we always wait till it's over to say that? haha.
i have half an hour to decide whether i should hit the gym later. feeling kinda sleepy. hmm..

another day.
i'm sure you've probably read about the recent controversy about xiaxue's take on handicapped toilets. honestly, i think it's a bloody waste of time even debating about this subject! most people who aren't handicapped still use the handicapped toilets anyway, but surely you'll let someone who really is handicapped use the handicapped toilet right? yes i agree that people can be inconsiderate but since singaporeans care so much about 'face', i think they'd probably do the right thing in the end.. so wth man.
this brings me to the topic of complaining. singaporeans love to complain and bitch. even i bitch too! but i don't bitch about stupid things like handicapped toilets or even not allowing dogs into taxis. singapore is a cosmopolitan city and i guess we have to give and take and adapt our way of life to the culture of the society we live in.
singapore isn't a perfect place to live in. it's stressful, high cost and filled mostly with bloody inconsiderate and rude and relatively conservative people. but hey, it's a modern city that's filled with vibrance, opportunities (lol, i sound like some government advertisement) and loads of good food! :)
