foreign talent.

Living in Singapore is pretty much like living in the whole world itself, bloody diverse. everywhere you go, you will see a bunch of thai/indonesian/bangla(deshi)/Africans/Chinese Nationals and what not. (sorry for pun) Except for those damn atas places la, like Victoria Concert Hall or Raffles Hotel, the closest to seeing them anywhere near the suggested places will be the unfinished construction worksite/sewerage hole/along the road watering the plants. Preeeetty sad.

The Caucasians(or Americans) lead a much better life in Singapore, reliving the colonial reign waaaay back, they have to sip wine and taxi everywhere they go. Sigh, if only the Asians/Africans could do so too. Is it just me or is there a bunch of Singaporeans that have to speak bombastically just to impress these Ang-mohs so to speak. Fellas, accurate english doesn't mean speaking like an English lord from 1823 or some White guy. So stop posing, we know you are. Oh and using big words only make your sentences less cohesive. bah.

Speaking of foreign talent, look at our nation's basketball team, Singapore Slingers so to speak. I attended their match-up against the 'South Dragons' from Australia, they were pretty good. EXCEPT for the matter of the players' nationality itself, there were blacks and whites and 1 chinese fella, that's the only local talent. Sad eh? National team. I kid you not. Aiya, as long as they play good can already la. Just wait for the shame to kick in when they win an award and have their group photo taken and published on the Straits Times as a headline.

So my pal Brian aka DJ Rixban (my fellow DJ-wannabe and Magician) is penning his own short stories about school life and the misadventures that follow, do look it up, its pure randomness
www.osirisxiii.blogspot.com . Have yourself a good read.

Oh btw, i saw May and Choy at the Basketball match-up in the indoor stadium. HOTTTT man...question, why is it that we always run into MTV VJs? Strange.

Photos later, i'm lazy. Or rather, i'm pissed, cos the USB cable to my phone is getting cranky lately. boo.
