The blogging bug is back!
Blogging on Xmas day. As I'm typing this, 234567 girls are probably being molested or have already been violated by They-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named in town or other crowded places. I went to town once with a friend (a girl) on Xmas eve/New Year eve for the Countdown and since then, I vowed never, ever to hang out at town on these two occasions regardless of whether or not I am with females or males. My female friend was touched front back up down everywhere. The best thing was they surrounded us like ant colonies and thus an escape route after fondling would be easy. They-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named are horny, ruthless, despicable and if not for the fact that they contribute in the construction sector of the economy, they should just be banned from visiting Singapore.
How has Xmas been for me? I don't usually celebrate Xmas. I find it a little stupid to have countdown parties for Xmas! Isn't counting down to the New Year more meaningful? As such, I never had any gift exchanges during Xmas, and that's also because people USUALLY budget until the presents they spend on others are nothing short of CRAP. So giving = not giving. Why bother then?
End of the year always makes me excited though. I love to count down to the next year! I will also pen down a Last Day of the Year entry, which makes me reflect a lot on the year in a glance. A lot of ideas are circling in my head for that entry now, so watch out for that entry!!!
So anyone has good plans for New Year eve? Some friends and I are booking a hotel room for that night. My age tells me I should stop clubbing and going to crowded countdown parties already. My age also tells me I should faster finish my studies, build up my career, earn enough money, and settle down. I feel so old now that I've mentioned this. Let's leave these scary thoughts for another day, another entry.
AFF Suzuki Cup: Local fans’ unsporting rampage
Singapore Flyer to remain closed pending investigations
IMF warns of 2nd Great Depression
Party@The Float cancelled but Countdown Party to go on as planned
*laughs at all the outdoor countdown go-ers hopefully it will rain and make things worse*
I was going to blog about all the articles but I realize I am too tired to. But there was one article which caught my eye for the last few days. A veteran actor was diagnosed with muscular dystropy, a type of incurable diseases associated with the weakening of the muscles. There was news that a facebook group has been set up in prayer for him so I decided to be part of it. There were a lot of encouraging comments on the wall and of course, as much as there are encouraging words, there are also those which kinda put me off. Those I term: PUT already might as well DON'T PUT.
An example of an unnecessary comment. What does this guy mean by "Everything will turn fine"? It is an incurable disease alright, and doctors who diagnose him said he will have problems walking, swallowing, speaking etc in 7 to 15 years' time. Does that sound FINE to you? I feel the guy is insensitive, and it is so easy for him to say that because he's not the one experiencing this misfortune.
Another seemingly encouraging wall post which also comes with a truckload of redundance.
Another comment giver who did not get her facts right. Speedy recovery? Which part of incurable does she not understand? And yes, this one's from a girl, the previous are males.
The more sensible ones:
see the difference?

"Dont worry be happy!! this is what you used to say....everything will turn fine...just stay strong!!..GOD WILL BLESS YOU!!!.."

"May God strengthens you with faith and hope! Speedy recovery so that we can see more of your shows!!"
Another comment giver who did not get her facts right. Speedy recovery? Which part of incurable does she not understand? And yes, this one's from a girl, the previous are males.
The more sensible ones:
"I've been watching all his shows since i was a kid and i really do think that it is such a pity that he had to undergo such a disease. But never ever give up hope. Everyone is praying hard for him that a miracle may happen. Keep on going strong and never let the smiles fade away. :)"
"Hope is not a dream but a way of making dreams become reality. Stay strong and never give up."
"He used to bring much laughter to me and my family. Although i'm not a christian and wouldn't do christian prayers, i will still hope that everything goes well for him.
the inevitable may come, but for now, may he have enough quality time to spend with his loved ones."
see the difference?
