The new boundaries have been released.
I will still belong to Pasir Ris - Punggol GRC.
Still don't understand how we can have Sengkang West and Punggol East SMCs when the whole Sengkang East is more properly populated. Sigh what can I say? I only hope someone will challenge the GRC and give the incumbents a run for their money.
Wonder when the GE will be? Late March?
I wanna go for some opposition rallies!

Morning Sickness
This morning I was at the local polyclinic.
Nurse: You got flu ah?
Me: No. Morning sickness.
Nurse: Eh, morning sickness is for women.
Me: Oh yah, sorry, morning sinus.
Nurse: Got see doctor? (she said this line 3 times over 3 different things)
Me: Zzzzzzz

The Middle East
The current contagion spreading throughout the Middle East is getting quite unsettling.
Let's see how much the markets are going to be affected by all this.
It looks like everyone is jumping on the bandwagon to protest and demonstrate for supposed democracy but hey wait a sec. Is that really what the protesters are really trying to achieve? Or are they just trying to oust a government where the opposition has smelled an opportunity to take action?
Look at Egypt for example. It all sounded like the right thing to do supporting democracy and ousting an old dictator (even though Egypt as an economy was considered relatively stable). Now that Mubarak is finally out, the unrest is continuing! The people are now getting unhappy with the interim army government too. Another round of demonstrations again? The real Egyptian protesters must be wondering, what the hell did I just get led into protesting for? For all this to continue until the protesting leaders go into government? How much unrest must there be before everything settles down again? What was the true agenda of the protest leaders?
Over time the protesters will realize the true intentions of many of the protest leaders currently leading the unrest across the Middle East. If you want to do it, do it once and do it right. Even in Tunisia, the interim government is a shadow of the old regime and people are still unhappy.
You really want democracy? Protest, topple and vote immediately. That's how it should be done. Procrastinating only leads to more protesting.
Now the Libyan government wants to bomb the protesters. What a joke. Plus all eyes on Bahrain.
I'm just glad we don't have such a situation in Singapore. Or our neighbors. Yet.
Stability is always under-appreciated.

Budget
Wah, this year's budget give out so much goodies.
Elections should be in May when the payouts have been distributed.
I personally think that this year's budget has been quite well allocated to appease alot of grievances amongst the people.

Home - Keeping It Together
Home - Keeping It Together
Love this newest version of our National Day song.
Wonder why they don't keep this for NDP though.
Go watch it!

古惑仔
Saw an ah-beng with those three words tattooed on the back of his neck. Up close.
Is there a need to be so obvious?
Did it hurt?
Why are youths of today disfiguring themselves so unforgivably?

That Old Adage
Form is temporary, class is permanent. As in Wayne Rooney's goal in the 2-1 win over Manchester City proved.
What a stunner. That overhead bicycle volley is definitely goal of the season contender.

A Series Of Unfortunate Events
Since this CNY.
Sigh. Maybe the stars are not well aligned this period. Things feel so weird around me :(
Think I should go buy a set of red boxers this weekend.
