Let's play dress-up with Singapore!
Singapore sure knows how to be hospitable to the IMF and World Bank. Suddenly she's putting on make-up!
Out of the blue, there are more flowers and greeneries along the increasingly-boring Orchard Road, Wireless connection in City Hall area, art pieces from the Singapore Biennale hanging in town and temples (NOW, we show them that we are very art-conscious!), and instead of people sulking, we have more of them smiling (hint: 4million smiles)!
Hooray! Can the World Bank and IMF come every year? Then Singapore will dress up and we ordinary citizens will be very grateful.
Push the Boundaries
I followed the instructions given by my tutor very carefully for my essay. Font 12, one page. But the rest of my tutorial mates didn't!! They squeezed so much info into one page and they probably used Font 5!! Now, my work seems so easy and simple. I wanted to write more but I didn't manage to do it with the limitations.
Heck, I'm going to push the boundaries next time! Not going to be follow the rules! But worry not, I won't do it all the time, only appropriately. Still, i'll push it HARD if i can.
Conspiracy Theories
I read some mind-boggling conspiracy theories about the Sept 11. And apparently, the popular one goes like this.
Note: This is a conspiracy theory! It may not be real, just a speculation, alright?!!
The Sept 11 crash was actually a plan by the U.S and Saudi Arabia (if i remembered correctly), to stir up emotions and use this as a reason to attack Iraq. Attack Iraq and exploit its oil for their own.
Whoa! Quite far-fetched but creepily believable.
What to expect from here
