I just read a friend's post earlier, commenting on why our bronze winners didn't communicate in English during the interviews. Even for obvious reasons that they are not able to communicate in English, except Chinese, I couldn't understand why they did not even bother to learn the language during their stay here. Maybe their time are too consumed learning table tennis. But still, isn't English the main language spoken here? So how do they get along with the communities all these while? Don't tell me they don't mingle with the citizens all these time? Or maybe they only communicate with those whom can speak CHINESE/MANDARIN?

Some are proud of their winnings, as they make our red white flag fly in dignity. It was afterall a long awaiting wins. But I ask myself, are they proud to be a Singaporeans? Do they even know, remember or ever say the pledge? We, the citizens of singapore. Pledge ourselves as 1 united nation..bla bla bla.... We want so much to make a name in the Olympic. We imported players from different part of the world ( which are not the countries best kept players ). Overwhelmed them with benefits. Package them as a Singaporean to compete. So what are we showing to the world? That Singaporean are made up of people from all over the world? A mini united nation? Yes, we no doubt a multi racial society. But are we becoming a multi nation society too? I admit that they are talented and it takes great determination and efforts to be winners. But don't we have talented people here too? They can be nurtured. They can be trained. They can be sponsored and guided. And who knows they can be CHAMPIONS too. 

I have nothing against them. But I can't ignore the fact that there are not born bred Singaporeans. I'll end my post congratulating them on winning the bronze. But then I would rather congratulate all the Olympic winners.

Wow, it has been like 3 years since I had abondoned the idea of blogging. It wasn't intention though but I guessed time does contribute to me being drifted from penning my thoughts on this blog. There is a common saying - ' No time '. Perhaps, that's the reason why I was away this long?

A lot of things have happened during my disappearance. First of all, there are few additions to my family. Some are long awaited while some, I could say unexpected. I had long been waiting for the existance of a second child and yes, with gratitude,  I was blessed with a beautiful daughter. 7 years apart from my first wonderful one. I had since welcome the existance of in-laws and 3 nephews and nieces (I think). They have definitely contributed the extended branches of a family tree.Ha.

Definitely, lots of things happened to my life during the years. Some I wanted so much to forget, while some, I shall say not giving me any effects. Doesn't matter if those are forgotten or remembered. Afterall, our existence is not permanent. These memories are just reminiscences or bits of pieces of our life, which are meant to bring color to it. It could be dull or bright and maybe you can add creativity to these colors by mixing them. Get my point? Simply said, you can either make your life interesting or as dull as you may want it. It's up to you, cause after all, it's your life! But what annoys me is, we can't erase the dark moments of our life. I faced them in year 2009. Very much wanted to forget it. But could I? These are something that we can't see but we are fairly aware of its' existance. So what can I do? Bear and live with it! Irritates me much. In fact, 2009 is the worst of my life, as far as I can remember and I do not wish to even talk about the events occured in that year and definitely not the reasons why I started to pen my thoughts now. The truth is, I happened to stumble to the historic blog by chance and surprisingly, I can even remember the codes to access it. Miracle. Haha.

Interests have definitely change. Being me, I am not the kind to have stay faithful on some ideas or interests. Faithful lover, definitely yes. But not to other things I guessed. I don't mind the change or inconsistent interests though as I can at least have a taste of here and there.

I am out of time...shall continue whenever it permits. And yes, it's nice to be back.
