小妹妹,要吃糖吗?

要~

next thing you know it's another huang na case...poor girl.

Ah hao(not our vaness ah hao...hurhur) definitely deserved that sentence, although I feel that not many people see or feel that life imprisonment is actually a lot worse than the death sentence. Then again SG isn't like the US of A where the gahmen is rich enuf to keep their inmates fed and alive for a lifetime...

For those who disagree with me saying that life sentence >> death sentence, feel free to leave comments hor.

So anyways, there's this indian girl in my project group that i think is a good match with our dear valli. She's acceptable even by my racist chinese standards, so i tink valli would most likely die cock stand if he sees her. heheh.

A note on birthdays a few posts back by valli...I feel the same nonchalance for my own birthday, for one. The last birthday i actually celebrated with a party with guests and gifts and all that shit was when I was 8. As I continue to wither every year, i come to realise that birthdays are more often than not a cheap and badly disguised way of asking people for presents that you don't actually deserve. Is getting one step closer to your eventual demise really that worth celebrating?

With old people it's different. When i say old, it should be around the 60's...when you celebrate birthdays then it's to congratulate yourself for still being alive, still clinging on to this material world, that makes the so called celebration justified. My grandpa (mother's side) was 80 when he passed away, and his birthdays were rather something. Not that I was applauding his efforts in refuting death, but being able to spend nearly a century on this world is quite a feat by itself. He died of stomach cancer.

Anyways you get the idea. What's the purpose of celebrating a birthday after you hit puberty besides the reasons I have already stated previously? I haven't received a birthday present since my last "party" nor will I ever give one of my own accord. The mythos of celebrating one's 21st birthday is also something that eludes me. Besides being able allowed by the gahmen to watch R(A) films and voting privileges, are there any other boons that accompany your 21st passing that is actually worth celebrating for? You can drive at 18. Legal age of consent for sex and marriage for girls and boys in singapore is 14 and 18 respectively. What's left?

A birthday party especially, has nothing to do with actually celebrating your inevitable deterioration. It is an excuse, rather. A means to an end...the emphasis is on the second word, 'party'. Unsociable people like me don't go to par-tays, they don't fit my style man. Yea, that's right. Not my STYLE. hurhur.

The concept of a birthday is too deeply ingrained in our cultures for us to do anything about it. However, if sg gahmen was more like the commie chinese they could pass a law and abolish birthdays altogether.

Jack out~
