Pretty Good

Ooooh 'O' levels chinese is coming up soon, very soon, so soon that i dont even have time to go to the provision shop and get myself a beer(in 2 years). I guess im thinking of getting at least an A2 for that paper so i can forget about it already and get on with life and the other subjects. Its pretty hardcore man, the way i see people studying for chinese in class, up til now i have no clue how to study chinese from doing assessment books, all i know is just remembering those damned phrases that will surely bag me extra marks during the exams, which i have never used.

Somehow, im led to thinking about the typical singaporean behaviour when i think of chinese, either that or the weird and usually funny accents i hear all over. I cant blame them though. When i think of this, i can link it to people getting into a lift, there are a few irritating types when it comes to mind, like those people that stand so close to the lift door that their nose is almost touching the door, or those that just want to be the first and rush into the lift just for the kick of being the first in something. Even worse are those that charge in the lift, bang into someone (or scare someone if their nose is to big) and say "wah kao! paiseh paiseh. solli solli. if they already know that they have to say sorry, why bother to rush in? i still cant fathom what goes on in the minds of this people. Why do they have to do this? is it for the thrill of winning? because everyone else is beating them to other things, or whether it is too competitive in singapore that even a small battle like this can help them go on to achieve bigger things in life? the WCG(World Charging Games)? Neither you nor i will ever know, unless....
