In celebration

To a woman of strength and inner beauty
A woman with charisma and frank
A woman with sensitivity
and always a thought for others before herself
And even though fighting the last battle
refuse to bend under the weight
and doesn't think the world revolves around her
A mother's love so strong it keeps her going
On and on for her children
The sparkle in her eyes
The brillance in the smile
brightens up the darkest of hearts.

Death be not proud, though some have called thee
Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so

Rest In Peace

train outburst

I was on the train yesterday and I witnessed a big quarrel between 2 groups of people. This auntie obasang(with her old mother) and a wannbe punk beng(with his middle aged mother). Apparently the ah beng got on the nerves of the auntie before they board at the Jurong East interchange. Then they started shouting at each other big time. Vulgarities, insults, 'shut-ups', 'singapore law(??!!)'... other than really boxing each other, you name it they have it. They practically shout across the cabin, attracting looks of amusement and disgust from everyone. Then the people with them started shouting at each other too. The old mother even got up from her seat and walked threateningly towards her enemy. The commotion died down only after a really long awkward time when they finally went out of breath.

I was seated right where the action is so I got front row seats view of the whole drama. Boy, who says Singaporeans are meek and passive. These people are garang, heck care about the looks they are attracting. They just whack lor. Big time. Honestly, it was a big enjoyment for me to witness the outburst. It was so funny to look at. Ok I'm not gloating over people's misery but really everyone needs a little cute drama in our mundane (read:yawn) life. And I guess in comparison for many of us who choose to swallow our unhappiness and irritation to ourselves, at least the outburst achieve a cathartic effect of purging all their bad feelings.



Going off to Bintan for a short getaway from tomorrow. Phew...badly need a break. :)till then good luck for the IH games!
