one of my fravourite things to do nowadays when i am not
a. correcting french-corded english grammer on my societies report (courtesy of my french groupmates)
b. decorating voodoo dolls of my inconsiderate neighbours (just kidding)
c. lamenting about the erratic weather changes
is reading up on travel blogs ON singapore. try it, you will be surprised by what you read.. just google "singapore travel blog". though most rap lyrical about how clean, green and efficient singapore is, i am even more intrigued by how paranoid some of them sound before visiting the tiny law-straitjacketed island. most voice concerns over chewing gum, caning, flushing the loo.. and one guy even proudly remarked how he managed jaywalked across a street WITHOUT getting a fine. *clap clap, let me fetch you a blue ribbon*
but i must admit, i myself am guilty of over-describing the laws cum penalties in singapore to my fellow exchange students. then again, i am not one to muse over how zip-quick-efficient our transportation system is or how pow-wow-strong our gdp per income capita is.. on the contrary, i derive unbecoming pleasure from the look of horror upon their faces when i describe the death penalty and caning procedure. and of course, their wide eyed trying-to-restrain-dropping-jaw looks does little to quelch my enthusism.
at times, a opportune single eyebrow is lifted to emphasize a point, followed by a brief pause to allow the consequence of my statement to trickle in slowly. haha. such fun. i can be plain sadistic at times.
but of course, i love my itsy-bitsy island! i also found a great blog article seen from the perspective of a tourist ono kinegrindz so that noone can accuse me of being bias. right.
