Singapore blog post!

Yes, everyone who reads this post, this is my first Singapore post.

...So what about it?

Fine, I'll blog about Singapore... Or, in this case, rant about the differences between Singapore and Malaysia.

Singapore and Malaysia are very much alike, yet so different from one another.

Singapore doesn't have as many crazy weirdoes as there are in Malaysia. (Or am I wrong? XD)

Singapore is extremely clean compared to Malaysia.

Singapore has reckless drivers. I mean, I try to cross a road and everytime, I get honked at by a taxi coming from, like, a kilometer away that would've killed me if I had walked just one step further. In Malaysia, if anyone sees someone on a road, the person driving immediately slows down and gives the person time to cross, particularly if the person is a Senior citizen. Ahh, Malaysians have more etiquette and manners. Lol

Singapore has far more clubbing facilities, liquor shops, bars, pubs, fine dining restaurants, etc. because of the halal factor. OK, I can understand why alcohol isn't halal, and pork...can be disgusting at times, but why dogs? DOGS! DOGS!!! How in the world can someone possibly not want to pet such a cute little doggy? I love Ginger and Travis, the cutest dogs in their respective countries.

I walked Travis twice already today. He's so cute, yet so weird. I wonder if all dogs are weird that way...

Singapore is so nice, especially the nice apartment I'm staying in with Kevin & Ashwinni, Aunty Uma, Uncle Gilbert, Travis, Hermi, Ganesh atan(temporary) and my bro(temporary, like me).

Because it's so scenic and peaceful...
And you can just relax on the balcony in the quiet...
With the nice wind blowing and all...

And there's also nice river scenery when I walk Travis. The wind is blowing and there's a beautiful view of the river. There's only ONE thing I regret on this trip...

ZOMG WHY DID I FORGET TO BRING MY CAMERA!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Now I can't take pictures of anything!
What a waste!
Such nice scenery too!

Now on to the various goings-on in Singapore...

Arrived yesterday at night.
There was nothing on yesterday night... Except for a dinner with many different relatives, and a particularly dramatic Asaimama babbling about how Hasheeni machal "ruined her life" and "hasn't completed her education", as my sources tell me. For I don't listen to the talk of the relatives. Lol.

In conjuction with a certain occasion, a certain event will be held by the relatives who are in Singapore to the primary source of this event. What occasion? What kind of event? What source? Hehe... More info in my next post.

Also, tomorrow, I and my family are to watch a play in which my cousin, Kevin, is acting as a main character. Ever heard of Nicholas Nickelby by Charles Dickens? Yeah, well, it's a play. I brought some wonderful batik silk clothes just for that particular occasion. The play will be 5 hours long(yes, FIVE HOURS long) because it is the last show and a combination of both Parts I and II on the same day. There's gonna be a dinner break inbetween, thank goodness. Poor Kevin, I bet he'll be quite happy when this whole play thing is over.

And then, the next day, the DS Lite will be sent for repairs, which will cost S$80 and will take 4-8 weeks. Then, we shall be off and on our way back to KL, our wonderful glorious hometown, the Malaysian metropolis. And within which we shall find Taman Melawati, the location of my house.

I can't wait for the DS Lite to be repaired! But, other than that, I have to buy, or at least check the price of, some DS Lite accessories while I'm still in Singapore...

I have to check the price of Nintendo DS Lite Ice Blue styli, because I want to buy two more. Other than that, I want to buy the Nintendo DS Headset to allow for clearer voice communication and, if I'm in public, people won't be wondering what I'm doing by slyly whispering into my DS Lite, like I'm a weird Fr3@Ky technopath or something like that.

Well, anyway, that concludes my very long SIngapore post.
For some reason, I'm getting back into the habit of making longer posts! But the matter of updating daily... Well, that's a different subject altogether. ;)

Well, that's all for now.
Bye then!
