Politicians and Stilletos
Sunday, May 07, 2006
Well, sg general elections are just over. After a relatively short rally period. Vans driving past blaring nearly incoherent crap. People in white alking everywhere putting on a faux chirpy personality and acting like they're welcoming you to a funfair. Speeches on tv and in public made with primary sch level english. Hey you kids out there. Havent taken your PSLE? Its alright. Just act friendly and pick up the dictionary for 2 words that sound sophisticated. Speak out, even if you suck at oral cause nobody's gonna mock you for wrong tenses and inappropriate use of words. Except me. Go ahead. As long you're with the PAP, you'll get a seat in parliament.
There was this guy on tv, forgot which party, but well he was making a speech. You could so tell he was reading off the monitor in front. He was staring straight at the screen, not blinking, not moving, totally emotionless... like he was hypnotized or something. I and my cuz couldn't help laughin. The night before polling day, there was this like exodus moving from serangoon central to srgn stadium. Rallies no doubt. Then on polling day there was this 3 hour show for political stuff and the results. It seemed to be such a stressful job for the anchor people, halfway talking about something, then have to quickly change everytime got results from a certain area. The result percentages were usually around 60+ and 30+. Then wen an mp won, they put on him so many indian-looking garlands that it almost suffocated them. Ouh, there was this mp, the nee soon central one, he looked so hideous i bet he could give little kids nightmares. Anyway, oppisition only won 2 seats. Big deal.
I've been slogging my ass off to complete my assignments. The collage is such a bitch. It is damn painstaking and i hate doing it. This is seriously sapping the life out of me. How am i supposed to be a normal teen if i'm at home all the time doing artwork. Haiz.
Went to school on monday to hand up typo work... at like 9am. Then went home... or about to. When i'm like 3 stops away from home, sy tells me that we have to go change our matric card. So i go all the way back to school. A waste of almost an hour and 3 bucks in ez link. Then after getting my new card(which looks exactly the same as the old one) i hung around with clarence. He's so full of crap. My mouth was so tired from smiling the whole day. I find it kinda strange that he doesnt have a best friend nor wants to. He says he doesnt want to get betrayed or something. But i find it kinda silly, i mean there has got to be someone whom you hold above others, someone who has your back all the time no matter wat. Then all your friendships are like shallow and lack meaning. I mean everyone i met has like best friends. I'm not making like a big deal out of it but its like essential. Ah watever.
Well today Mr Wee extended our deadline from this thursday to next tues. Yay. I'll be able to finish all my exercises in time... i hope. But he also bugged me. Um, he wanted to look at my timetable so i passed him my clear folder with all the assignment instructions, my 5 buck color wheel and my past typo assignments. Then this girl came and talked to him, and he left. I didnt realise then that he took it with him... unknowingly i suppose. Then later i could not find him. If he lost it i'm so screwed.
