The poor maid..

Last night, i was having dinner with my friends..
Suddenly we notice a girl standing beside the table of the table behind us.

It was the maid of a family.

She (The Arrowed) was standing beside the table, while the employer (The Circled) was sitting down and eating.

"How can they do that!!" Our whole table screamed.. and started commenting on it, while i took this picture..

And with all this talking, the guy did not ask the poor girl to sit, and eat together with the family.. he even asked her to clean up the table.. (By the way, we are at Sakae Sushi restaurant.) She was there, standing, and looking at the guy, eating..

Either he "act blur" and did not hear our loud comments, or he could not understand English. *winks*

I feel angry and sad seeing this situation. 

Human Rights.

I don't have maid at home, and if i have, i will treat her like a human too.

We employ her to help out in the domestic chores, not as slaves!

And if i become maid someday, i don't want to be treated like this too.. can i?

=)

Busy weekends..

Firstly, its the Singapore Presidential Election 2011. Talking about not able to vote, this is my second vote after the General Election in May! (HAHA!)


In May, it was much easier to choose as there were only one, two parties to choose from. Either A or B.

This time around, we got 4 of them to choose from!! (And such a coincidence, they all are having the surname Tan!)

A Dr Tony Tan with his "pair of specs", Dr Tan Cheng Bock and "palm tree", Mr Tan Jee Say showing his "heart" and Mr Tan Kin Lian "high 5" with people he sees...

Anyway, the best one is still Mr Ong Teng Cheong, the first directly elected President.

And, also, he looked a bit like my grandpa.. =)

I still dont know who to vote.

Later tonight, i will be going for a concert. 

Whose concert, you may ask ?

I dont need to say much. 

Excited! =D

我最親愛的

主唱：張惠妹

作曲：Russell Harris

填詞：林夕

編曲：劉志遠

監製：張惠妹．Jim Lee

很想知道你近況
我聽人説還不如你對我講　
經過那段遺憾
請你放心　我變得更加堅強　
世界不管怎樣荒涼　
愛過你就不怕孤單　

我最親愛的　你過的怎麼樣　
沒我的日子　你別來無恙　
依然親愛的　我沒讓你失望　
讓我親一親　像過去一樣　

我想你一定喜歡　
現在的我學會了你最愛的開朗　
想起你的模樣　
有什麼錯　
還不能夠被原諒　
世界不管怎樣荒涼　
愛過你就不怕孤單　

我最親愛的　你過的怎麼樣　

沒我的日子　你別來無恙　

依然親愛的　我沒讓你失望　

讓我親一親　像朋友一樣　

雖然離開了你的時間　

比一起還漫長　

我們總能補償　

因為中間空白的時光　

如果還能分享　

也是一種浪漫　

關係雖然不再一樣　

關心卻怎麼能說斷就斷　

我最親愛的　你過的怎麼樣　
沒我的日子　你別來無恙　
依然親愛的　我沒讓你失望　
讓我親一親　像親人一樣　

我最親愛的　你過的怎麼樣　
沒我的日子　你別來無恙　
依然親愛的　我沒讓你失望　
讓我親一親　像過去一樣

PRC oh PRC..

The couple sitting in front of me at the Toa Payoh MacDonald, i overheard, all your conversation. (It was too LOUD.)

Encountered someone posting this on forum, of a PRC uncle scolding a lady, at the counter..





Poor girl was being scolded right at the counter.. =(

There was an even more juicy news on Indian family cooking curry, and being complained by our PRC friends..

Then as this news came out, (people like me who loved Curry, of course, unhappy), a Facebook event of "Cook and Share a Pot of Curry" appeared ~

Mr Brown, funny as ever, came out with this Curry Night song.. HAHA!

Since you are in MY country, please try to get into OUR culture, or at least, if you are not eating/liking the food we eat.. you can just watch us eat.

I am SINGAPOREAN !

Haiz..

The Ghost Festival a.k.a. the Hungry Ghost Festival

A year past since my post here..

It is the Hungry Ghost Festival month, again..
We do offerings, praying..

Sat, the family did prayers to Grandpa, and also to mark the 15th day of the 7th Lunar Month..
There was tons of food, and my favourite: Curry!! =D


I also had wax on my hand, while trying to light the candles..

Come to think of it, the town councils did not put enough metal bins for us to burn the incense paper, for the "good brothers"..
Being environment friendly is one thing, we should still respect the "good brothers".. and if we burn them on the ground, we will be fined.
=(
We need more metal bins.. (at least for this month?)

There was so much food, im still eating the curry moon hoon, during lunch just now.



Dear friends, dont stay too late outside, be safe!
