i kinda realised tt my blo only resolves surround me, me , me n me..
its getting kinda boring, i want the entires to be able to challenge my reader's thinking and get them getting.
had lunch at TM's Mos, there's a little auntie there who is v pleasant and looks so cute, she's jovial n fun. However, what breaks my heart is that she is age but still hafta wk.
there're however, 2 sides to everything, she could be jus passing time, or could be she needs the money for survival.
watever the case, seeing her clear trays n clearing after young abled pple after their lunches broke my heart. u may argue tt it is a srvice provided by the fast food restaurant, however, i can tell u confidently tt 10yrs ago, they dun seem to be the case. Pple clear up after themselves, put all the rubbish in their trays n empties it in the bin then placing the trays back on top of the bin, wat happened?
y do i remeber so clearly? simple, mum trains us to clear up after ourselves, so i did, sad to say when i still clear my tray during sec days, my classmates looked at me in bewilderment n exclaimed tt i dun hafta do it, i scoffed n did it anyway, but sad to say, as time went by, i become one of the lazy abled pple like the rest of the world. sad isn't?
there is also a legislation in Singapore tt says we have to provide for our parents when they are of age, if not, we can be fined. I'm serious, its called the 'maintenance if parents' act' (chapter 167B). Googled it if u dun believe.
it is used to controlled slime bags who do not pay up when their parents are in hospital, or dun go and bring them home after they can be discharged. Of course of they r unable to pay up it is an entirely different story, or are unable to pay rent, the case goes to CDC (central development council) who will help them get charitable orgs to help pay for their rental n S&C charges.
That aside, r they that many Singaporeans that r slime bags till the govt sees it as an issue to put thru a legislative, (FYI, the 1st legislation went thru in 95 and revised in 96). That to me, personally is kinda absurd isn't it?!
I mean they're quite a number of pple sticking chewed gums all over Singapore then stopping normal train services tt's y gum was banned. But are there tt many parents being abandoned to an extend tt they muz hv a law for it? Unbelievable...
On the other hand, there are aunties n uncles tt we see on the streets that r outstandingly unreasonable n a pain to even share public transport with, can u imagine living under the same roof as them? hmmm.. mayb that's 1 of the reasons. Anyway, that's jus my catharsis. So much for abreaction...
