Live Fast, Die Young.

This quote is copied/sharingan’ed from Agnes Ho’s facebook profile. If you guys have no idea who Agnes is, No…. she is not the irritant from Despicable me, she is Singapore’s Ayumi Hamasaki, the person who sprouts words of wisdom like ‘我觉得我要死了… 我的心很痛’while playing Mah Jong.

sorry Agnes, hahahaha

I really like this quote, ‘Live Fast, Die Young’, its in-line with my thoughts and sentiments regarding Life.


I don’t know about you but personally for me, I am not afraid of Death. The only thing I am afraid of is ‘Dying with Regrets’.

some cats have suicidal tendencies

How do you die without regrets? Simple, just live your life to the fullest.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


To list it down in points, here is a rough guide which has been governing my life thus far.


1. Try


You need to try anything and everything. Of course don’t attempt anything taboo, illegal or career/life threatening though…

if he lau-chiew, he will ROD, not ORD.

huat my life...

When I say try anything and everything, I mean you must be willing to embrace new things.


This is exceptionally critical because unlike the other points I’m going to state later, this one is Time-Sensitive.


I will turn 22 this November. In my workplace, I am the perhaps the youngest. You can almost sense the indubitable admiration/desire of colleagues around you who wish they could be young once again.


It’s the same for me when I look at students donning their school uniforms. I was once like them, I was once 16. I was once living without having to worry about financials, worry about career, worry about love, worry about health etc…

japanese xmm

When you reach a certain age, look back and regret because you have not done enough, you deserve it!


Mark my words, you only have yourself to blame.


I have friends who are of the same age as me never having stepped into clubs like Zouk, Dbl O, Butterfactory and Supperclub before.

I have friends who don’t know what anime is.


I have friends who don’t know what Dota stands for.


I have friends who don’t know who the heck is Cristiano Ronaldo.

don't worry, you will know who I am after I'm done with this free kick

In fact I challenge you to challenge me, doesn’t matter if you are male or female.


Throw something at me, chances are I have done it before, either that or I have AT LEAST some slight/minimal knowledge about it (probably read about it before or learnt about its existence from a friend… its important to not be completely oblivious about something). If I don’t fulfill the both conditions stated above, I WILL BE WILLING TO TRY IT.


Gaming – check
Nightlife – check
Reading – check
Blogging - check
Investing – check
Music/Band - check
Anime/Cosplay – check
Fashion/Beauty – check
Politics/Current Affairs - check
Sports/Martial Arts – check
Gambling – check
Fine dining/Binge eating – check
Studies - check
Other recreational/leisure activities - check


Use your friends to help you. Nobody is perfect and will ever be. Roger Federer may be Tennis God but he would probably get his assed kicked in Tekken 6 by any regular Bugis arcade goer.

don't mess with uncle Kazuya

In my group for example, I am very open to absorbing knowledge from my friends. Its ok man, there is nothing to be ashamed of when you learn from someone superior to you.


Serious Cat TW good in fitness/sports/nightlife – I talk to him and learn more
Chin Nam good at fashion/hair-styling/CYBASTALKING!!! – LEARN
Woon good at music/writing/otakuness/being a xiaopang – LEARN
Benji good at politics/history/current affairs – LEARN
Emooo Cow good at photography/gaming – LEARN
Yo Long good with computers/card-tricks – KIV
Jeremy Yay The Foodblader good at online marketing – KIV
Nich good with investing – KIV
Ellson good at making money in online poker - KIV
Ben good for nothing – DON’T LEARN!!! (HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA BOMBERBEN)
Jinn good at getting cheated by girls and feeding in Dota – DON’T LEARN ALSO
Ronald good for being a Halfpuf – AVOID!!!


KIV means KEEP IN VIEW. We each have 24 hours a day, now might not be a good time to learn about affiliate marketing from Jeremy or investing from Nich because of time constraints but in the future, things might change.


Your only limitation is you.


As mentioned earlier, I will be hitting 22 soon.


Here is my ‘To-do list’ before I become old and unsexy (new word).


a) Cosplay with my friends. I must do it while I'm still young, I don't see myself cosplaying when I hit 24 or 25? That would just be retarded and you will hear alot of people saying, 'Dude.. Get a Life already'. (I mean come on… you all don’t wanna see Woon cosplay as MENG HUO or ZHANG FEI??? That would be E-P-I-K)

si angmohs cosplaying the 3SHU brothers

this is not cosplay, this is cosfail

Hit the gyms. I promised TW that, I have not forgotten my promise.


Project Make-Over. In Progress, awaiting the return of Shion.


Stage a Hangover trip with my friends. (Country – Undecided yet)

NOT YOU FAT JESUS!!!! best quote in the movie

Shion once said something really meaningful which I want to share with my readers.


现在我们年轻，想穿，能穿，就穿。

以后你老了，就算你肯穿，都没有人要看。


Now that we are young, whatever we want to wear, can wear, we should do so.

Because next time when you are much older, even if you are willing to wear, nobody would bother looking.

god my eyes...

If I died tomorrow would I have any regrets?


Yes of course, I would have regrets. There are still many things in Life I have yet to have accomplished. I would go with a small smile, not a big one.


But how about we pose this question to a RI or Hwa Chong Student/Nerd?


He/She would have a FUCKLOAD of regrets considering that the majority of his/her life was spent on studying and trading off with leisure/relaxation/enjoyment. Yup, dying before you land that highly coveted lawyer or politician job, suck it lol! This person would go with a massive frown in his/her grave.

As you can see, the trick to Life is to die happy, die without regrets.


2. Eat anything that moves

my master

I classify things into 2 categories, either EDIBLE or INEDIBLE.


Look at the computer, OK ITS INEDIBLE.

Look at that calculator, OK ITS INEDIBLE.
Look at those chikin nuggets, EDIBLE.

Look at that plate of Sambal Kang Kong, SUPREMELY EDIBLE!!!!!

put this infront of me = GG!!!

Look at that dumbfuck who bought 6 boots of speed in Dota, EDIBLE.


Always remember, as long as it moves, IT CAN BE EATEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I have a silent respect for vegetarians. Abstaining from meat is an arduous and gargantuan task. But I also want to let you guys know that for every animal you don’t eat, I will eat three.

How to piss a vegetarian off 101?


a) Call them Vegetables instead of Vegetarians. Act like you GENUINELY cannot distinguish between the two words.


‘Ohhhhh you are a vegetable ah…. Ok lor later we go subway for lunch ba…’

b) Use Hokkien.

‘Siao eh, you are JIAK CAO one ah???’


To gain a higher score, end off with a ‘MOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo’.

my cousin

Seriously… why am I so fucking godly?


Asking me to go VEGE is like asking Michael Bay to direct a movie without explosions.


Not going to happen.


On a more serious note, eating whatever we can while we are young is because as we age, we will tend to be more health-conscious.


My Dad has gout and thus his diet is controlled. I don’t want to reach a point in my life whereby I’m hit with a medical condition which restricts what I can eat and have regrets about not eating those when I was younger.


I eat what I like so next time if I can’t; at least I was once able to.


Unfortunately for me, whatever I like to eat is deemed UNHEALTHY.


Sam’s favorites 101


Sambal Kang Kong
Cockles aka Sea Hum
Laksa
Intestines of any kind, even humans muahahaha
Livers of any kind, humans included, do I have to repeat...
Those fried fishes with a lot of eggs in it, forgot the name.

Any fast-food, I love eating fast-food esp Super Dog and Popeyes.

what is the name of this fish, its my favourite!

Ever questioned the need for a last meal in prisons before the day of execution? IT’S SO THE DEATHROW PRISONER DIE ALSO CAN DIE UNTIL SONG SONG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


But then again if they give me a last meal, it’s damn easy, just 5kgs of Sambal Kang Kong and 3kgs of Sea Hum can le.

can you resist?

3. Stand up for yourself

To Live Fast and Die Young, you must be true to yourself. I have a very strong character, I don’t believe in taking shit from anybody, not from parents, superiors, teachers, friends etc…

If I hate you, I won’t bother mincing my words or put it across to you tactfully. I will either just tell you straight in the face to FUCK OFF or avoid you completely.

No, I won’t backstab you or play politics, that’s just not my style.


Love me Hate me, it’s your choice, my pleasure.


I may not die rich, I may not die good-looking and I may not die with tons of friends mourning for me but hey… At least I die with a character I can call, my own.

TASTE!!!!

The Taxist

Typical cab scenario which always happens to Samuel The Great.

Sam: Uncle, Tampines.

Uncle: Go by ECP, CTE, TPE, SLE, AYE?

Sam: Just go the fastest one

Uncle: Err so CTE la?

Sam: Ya ok


*5mins later at a junction*


Uncle: So now go by TPE or ECP?

im on the highway to hell

Sam: ANY 1 JUST GO THE ONE WHICH CAN REACH THE FASTEST

Uncle: So it’s TPE ah…

Uncle: Ok I go TPE

Sam: (starting to get pissed)


*10mins later*


Uncle: Wah piang… jam, should have gone ECP, faster…

HUAT!!!

Sam: ZOOMMMMG UNCLE YOU WANNA DIE BY FINGER OF DEATH OR LAGUNA BLADE???? KNN, U TRYIN TO BE A JOKE ISSIT!11!1

suffer, bitch.

-lol kidding I didn’t say that… BUT I wish I did hahaha

----------------------------------------------------------------------


Uncle: Ah boy u want to go by TPE, CTE, ECP??

Sam: TPE


*10mins later at a traffic light*


Sam: Uncle the interchange is left or right ah?

Uncle: Oh interchange is left (Proceeds to make a left turn)


*30seconds later*


Sam: Eh UNCLE, the interchange is behind us la, just now you should have turned right

Uncle: Ohhhh sorry, I U-TURN now…

(You all must note that at this point, the taxi driver’s life was in critical danger. Danger of perishing from the wrath of Samuel The Great)

Seriously you fuckwitt, if this was Grand Theft Auto: Singapore, I would have gotten 1STAR instantly for butchering your sorry-ass on the spot.

And don’t get me wrong, murdering you would be doing society a favor.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Readers, please get this straight, I am not a Taxist.

(racist: people who are biased against different races)
(taxist: people who are biased against taxi-drivers)

I am an intellecist. I am biased against STUPID PEOPLE aka DUMBSHITS.

textbook example of a dumbshit

If you don’t know the route well, fair enough, it’s understandable. After all, I don’t expect a taxi driver who frequents the North area of Singapore to be exceptionally well-versed in the layout of the East. BUT DON’T FUCKING GEI KIANG CHO HERO AND WORST STILL, LIE.

Tell the truth to the passenger. I’m sure most Singaporeans are reasonable people and the majority of them are receptive to logic. In fact some will even try their best to aid you along the way.

But if you are being a fucking prick who lies just for the sake of making that few extra bucks, I got to say… your existence is really a pitiful story.

i only allow girls as cute as her to lie to me, the rest CANNOT!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To be an effective passenger land transport provider for Samuel The Great, you just need to follow these 3 very simple rules.

Number 1: Shut up and drive

golden rule

Number 2: Shut up and drive drive drive drive

do it or ribena would be pissed

Number 3: Shut up and drive drive drive drive drive drive drive driveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

again???? YES, AGAIN till its drilled into ur fucken head

Easy as pie.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a side note, I’m back on HoneyHushHush. Yes the ISD did not bring me in for coffee, Heng Ga Lao Sai… To celebrate my elusiveness from the law, I have decided to share this EPIC WIN story with you guys.

I think about roughly 2 weeks back, it was Gackt’s Birthday celebration in Downtown East.

(At New York New York Restaurant)

Gackt and Samuel The Great seated side by side facing the famous Empire State Building King Kong picture.

Gackt: I think the first show we watched together was Godzilla…

Sam: Really meh? No la I don’t think its Godzilla

Gackt: That was where we trained our skill of laughing in the cinemas

Sam: Dunno la, don’t remember liao

Gackt: Eh Bird, if Godzilla fight King Kong, who will win?

Sam: WTF OF COURSE KING KONG LA!!!

Sam: U didn’t know King Kong tore off the top of the Empire State Building meh.. last time during the fight.

Gackt: HUH??? I thought King Kong is a fake story????

Sam: LJ LA!!! The picture you see there is actually the reconstructed Empire State Building!!!

Sam: I read about it before (flashes a confident face / serious cat face)

Sam: Even in wiki they got say loh…

Sam: In King Kong’s last fight, he climb the Empire State Building then he got injured by the planes but when he about to die, he tore off the tip of the Empire State Building and brought it down with him…

(at this point, Gackt bought 50% of my story)

Sam: But then the picture you see there right… Actually the actual King Kong is not so big size de (trying to paint some practicality into my lie)

OF COURSE NOT SO BIG LA SIAO!!! LIK TAT U TINK GACKT WILL BELIEVE MEH????

(Gackt 75% convinced)

Sam: The real King Kong is abit smaller but then he still managed to climb the Empire State Building…

Sam: Actually you think about it, it’s really damn amazing right??

Gackt: YA LA!!

Gackt: Wah you mean the King Kong is real one ah…

Gackt: Sian how come nowadays don’t have King Kong this type of big creatures sia…

(closing phase of a lie – The Polish)

Sam: Its like that 1 la, they all gone extinct le…

Sam: In that last battle, King Kong tio shoot by the plane till he buay ta han then he just fall down

noble monkey

Sam: Damn heng when he fall down he didn’t land on any innocent people…

Sam: Also he protected the girl all the way to the end…

(Sam strikes an ‘act-sad’ face)

(Repeats the key punchline of the story)

Sam: But you must not forget, even in his dying moments, King Kong was strong enough to tear off the tip of the building leh… That’s why they have to reconstruct it.

Sam: I really respect King Kong and I guarantee you, he confirm stronger than Godzilla.

Sam: I tell you if he never die, he surely will climb the World Trade Centre de but wasted tio bomb.

(Gackt 100% convinced)

Gackt: Wah song sia! Really didn’t know this shit happened man…


Moral of the Story: Gackt is a Himbo (male equivalent of Bimbo)


The best part, THE MOST PRICELESS PART was seeing Gackt’s serious, interested and inquisitive expression throughout the whole ‘skit’. He was giving me unyielding attention and nodding in accordance to what I said. It’s like he GENUINELY BELIEVED THAT KING KONG ACTUALLY EXISTED HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH REALLY BUAY TA HAN TO THE MAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WTF I FEEL DAMN EVIL LA, TRICKING MY BEST FRIEND LIKE THAT BUT THEN ITS REALLY DAMN DAMN FUNNY I SWEAR.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quick updates on my life

1. Just got back from South Africa after a tiring, exhausting and hard-fought tournament. WELL WORTH THE EFFORT, WE ARE FINALLY CROWNED WORLD CHAMPIONS!!!! IT’S A DREAM COME THROUGH! When Fabregas slid me that pass, I knew I couldn’t let my countrymen down… I took the volley which carried the weight of my nation and now the rest is history.

Regards,
Andres Iniesta

2. My PS3 is collecting dust at home. Nearly 2months never touch liao. When is FF13 Versus coming out, when, when when???????????

writing really burns my sleep zZzZzZzZ

5 Reasons why you should vote them OUT-TO

Where do you stand?




Baby Boomers – 1946 to 1964

e.g. Your Laopei and Laobu



Generation X – 1965 to 1981

e.g. aka the half fucked generation, not here not there, not young not old

If they were a religion, they would be the Agnostics (bloody fence-sitters)



Generation Y – 1982 to 1996

e.g. The generation of Legends because it coincides with the birth of Samuel the Great. Most importantly, it’s the generation of xiaomeimeis wearing miniskirts and low cut blouses.

focus on the dressing of the bottom right girl - Effing Smexy, I Like!!!

Generation Z – 1997 to 2012

If you are a Generation Z reader of HoneyHushHush, I salute you.

Gen Z professional lip-sync perfomer from CHINA

Any other unlisted Generations such as Silent Generation / Greatest Generation / Lost Generation…


Congrats you are an antique!


O wait, I believe there is a Warlock Generation too for those with a stubborn refusal to die ‘ahem’ lao-*** (CENSORED to prevent the ISD from knocking on my fucking door).

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Elections are coming.



D O N ‘T     W A S T E      Y O U R      V O T E S !!!



VOTE WISELY



HoneyHushHush will mindfuck you into voting CORRECTLY



1) HONEST MISTAKE???



In the past those who entered politics like our noble founding forefathers, Goh Keng Swee, Devan Nair, Wee Kim Wee and J.B Jeyaretnam did it for the benefit, growth and well-being of the country.



They were all brilliant people who could strike it rich without a sweat in the corporate world but NO they made a choice, a choice to do their bit for the society and nation.



I mean come on, lao-*** is a fucken lawyer with Double Starred First Class Honours from Cambridge University…



You know what is a Double Starred First Class Honours?



Wiki definition: A "double first" can refer to first-class honours in two separate subjects, e.g., Classics and Mathematics, or alternatively to first-class honours in the same subject in subsequent examinations, such as subsequent Parts of the Tripos at Cambridge. The term "double-starred first" is used at Cambridge in the same fashion. At Oxford, this term normally refers to a first-class honours in both Honour Moderations and the Final Honour School.



In short, the difficulty of getting a double first is comparable to playing DOTA using Pandaren Brewmaster or Bristleback and getting a 10-kill streak in a WCG tournament. Likewise it’s as unbelievable as defender John Terry/Uncle Terry of England scoring 7 goals for the Three Lions and winning the golden boot award this World Cup. –Samuel The Great

FUCK U DAVID VILLA AND GONZALO HIGUAIN!!!

You mean he can’t make it in the corporate world with such impressive accolades?



The problem here is – THERE IS A DRASTIC DROP IN STANDARDS if you compare current/present to past.



Logic doesn’t make sense here–

In the past, ministers/government officials LOW pay

Make a lot of mistakes

Bo pian

What you expect

Pay low so morale low so prone to making mistakes

一分钱 一分货



Present

Ministers/government officials HIGH pay

Make a lot of mistakes

Bo pian

What you expect

HONEST MISTAKE MA…

nothin bt the truth

Yeah honest mistake when a limping man escapes a high security detention centre, honest mistake when an ENGINEERING grad heads a FINANCIAL institution and loses billions of dollars, honest mistake when a graffiti artist breaks into the national transport train depot and vandalize WITHOUT GETTING NOTICED, honest mistake when places start FLOODING successively when according to the gahmen its supposed to flood like once every 50 years???

gotta love this si angmoh

Current pay of our Prime Minister - $3.8million (highest paid government head in the world)

By the way 3.8million is just basic salary, not counting directorship bonuses in other private firms, dividends through stock holdings, paid talks/seminars etc…



Heck at the end of the day he might even be paid more than Lionel Messi who earns around 33million a year. Don’t Believe The Truth like Oasis very brilliantly put it. Never forget, there is only ONE Lionel Messi in this world but there are a few hundred or a few thousand people who can EASILY replace Mr. Mee Siam Mai Hum.. Mai Hum.. Mai Hum.. Mai Hum…

When I, (a tax-player) am paying you millions a year to sustain your extravagant lifestyles, I expect SHIT TO GET DONE and DONE WELL. I don’t like hearing bullshit like ‘Opps… Mas Selamat escape ah?? pai seh ah pai sehhh or after losing $50 billion and cooking up excuses like EKONOMI bad, we will get replacement then when replacement comes say NOT SUITABLE, clash with our strategic plans and outlook blah blah blah’

KIANG GA HO, MAI KAY KIANG

Obviously taking us for fools



Fool the baby boomers you may but you won’t fool Gen Y who are way more well-read, brilliant, curious and inquisitive about the state of things.



And if I were you, I would be wetting my pants now because Gen Y is fast becoming the majority voting population and to put it nicely, WE DON’T LIKE YOU or YOUR PARTY.



ALL HAIL THE INTERNET!!!



THE INTERNET PREVENTS US FROM BEING KIM JONG IL’S POOR CITIZENS/PUPPETS who know absolutely SQUAT about the world out there.

LOLOLOLOL

So all you political corporate-fat cats, judgment will find you soon.

2. The indigenous Singaporeans are about to get RELEGATED



For immigration standards of most countries, they play it safe by being CAUTIOUS. They filter out the best, screen them, evaluate them before allowing them entry into the country to eventually gain citizenship.



Singapore on the other hand = FLOODGATES OPEN

it has been breached brothers, ATTACK!!!

Initially its,



You got money??? If you got, LIMPEI LIKE YOU, YOU CAN COME IN



Then its,



You no money ah??? Nevermind you got PAPER??? You got BRAINS??? We take you!



Now its,



LAI AH!!! LAI AH!!!! TAKING ALL ORDERS!!! OUR FUCKING PEOPLE DON’T WANNA GIVE BIRTH, WE WILL TAKE YOU NO MATTER YOU AH NEH, AH TIONG, SI ANGMOH OR MARTIAN…!!! JUST COME, OUR CASINO SWEE SWEE!!! NO $100 ENTRANCE SIOL, FREE ENTRY PLUS ONE FOR ONE DRINKS ALL NIGHT LONG!!!

Butter Factory: The Home of OL clubbers

Fucking joke and that’s the situation now. We are overcrowded with TRASH, not ‘foreign talents’ like our gahmen would put it.



If you were born in Singapore, raised in Singapore, if your parents are Singaporeans, that makes you an indigenous citizen and if you don’t do SOMETHING about this, soon you will find yourself LOSING YOUR PLACE IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY.



That is pitiful.



I can accept it if the people brought in are of high standards but like I said, we are overcrowded with TRASH.



TRASH who will fight with our local uni grads for jobs and beat them out because of a much lower salary expectation.



TRASH who get many benefits and remunerations as expatriates in corporate structures while being effectively useless or unproductive in their line of work.



TRASH who jack up the housing costs.



TRASH who clog up our public transport system etc, buses, trains …



If you can accept being 2nd class citizens in your own country, by all means do so but you should be ashamed of yourself. You don’t deserve to wear the national colours or sing the national anthem.



You see if you brought in nuclear scientists, renounced physicist/doctors/economists/lawyers… we aka the citizens would SHUT THE FUCK UP because they would be beneficial to our economy and nation growth in the long run. But it’s totally the opposite now. We get foreigners in to snatch our rice bowls and fuck up the middle class which mind you is the most important class in Singapore, highest proportion of tax payers and voting numbers… Don’t you see, these people you are bringing in are DETRIMENTAL to us, doing more harm than good?

quality > quantity

RELEGATION COMING UP NEXT!!!



3. Where the fuck are you going to live in the future?



Are you sure you can afford housing in 10 years time?



As of 2010,



HDB pricing

3 room flat 250k-300k

4 room flat 300k-400k

5 room flat 400k-500k

Executive Mansionette 500k<



Factoring in speculation, inflation these figures are set to RISE.



Considering the dire state of employment in Singapore now, a local grad lands a job in a firm. He earns 2.8k – 3k a month as basic salary. Might be lower, 3k is pretty generous. Just count the number of years it would take for him to afford a basic necessity, housing.



If your parents do not pass on their house to you (99year loan which is enough to see you through but not your kid), you are in some serious shit for you are going to have to save for housing which will take a tremendous sum off your income.



Coupled with the CPF, you will find yourself with VERY LOW dispensable income.



Which brings me back to ‘I better start thinking of ways to beg/con/scam/threaten/blackmail/assassinate my dad to pass on his Mansionette to me’. ‘Heng I got a sister, she will be married OUT of the family!!! HAHAHAHA MISS SARAH, THANKS!’

Fernando Torres and Miss Sarah - CNY visiting 2010

Housing only.



Don’t need savings?



Don’t need to buy car?



Don’t need get married?



Don’t need to provide for kids?



Don’t need personal spending?



That’s why when the gahmen blames us for falling birth rates; I just show them the finger. Nope not the index or the pinky, it’s the one you show when you don’t give a fuck.

jesus speaks for me

In Singapore, we practically WORK TO DEATH.



Right out of graduation at a young age of maybe 24 or 25. You just work till you drop because everything around you is so fucking expensive.



Ever observed that the gahmen is always raising the retirement age cap/bar???



HAHA we are going to be like Hong Kong / Japan and South Korea… where we either rent houses or we buy the house and our kids pay for it (2 generations to collectively pay off the housing debt).



I’m lovin it.

so is the giraffe

4. Education system is messed up BIG TIME



Zhang先生 has strong views about this. I read what he wrote, its good. However our points of view differ slightly. While he feels that the Singapore Education system is stifling, lacks a choice of options/advancements and cannot breed creativity …

I feel that the Education system is IRRELEVANT.

AHHAHAHHAAH girls must learn how to utilize their assets

IRRELEVANT as in it’s nearly fucking useless in the corporate world.



Since Secondary school I took triple science, Pure physics, Chemistry and Biology.



In JC I took Econs, Physics and Maths.



Guess what, how applicable are these topics in the real world?

can't believe i actually memorized this entire shit in the past

Will your boss be impressed by your understanding of the human anatomy?



Or will your boss be interested to know about Newton’s third law?



‘eh boss for every action will have reaction la… we lose this client, nvm will have reaction de, will have a new client walk in to replace this one’



In C-Maths I learnt how to do integration and differentiation. Its maths whereby there are more words than numbers.



Tell me honestly, HOW THE FUCK IS THIS APPLICABLE IN THE REAL WORLD?????? I HAVE NO FUCKING IDEA!!! I’M AT A LOSS!



I DON’T EVER SEE MYSELF OR YOU USING DIFFERENTIATION IN YOUR LINE OF WORK (exclude hardcore maths/physics dependent jobs)



Have you all ever wondered how fucking ridiculous it is to learn all this BULLSHIT when all the maths you ever use in the world and in everyday life is PLUS, MINUS, MULTIPLY and DIVIDE?? And half the fucking time, you are using a calculator or a computer to do such shit for you??? That’s if it’s not already calculated for you by somebody else, think a casher scenario, DO YOU FUCKING ADD UP THE SUM OF WHATEVER YOU BUY WHEN YOU REACH THE COUNTER??? Fuck this.

CASH OR CREDIT?????

So instead of making me memorize non-applicable nonsense like the periodic table, how about revising the fucking syllabus?



Our kids who graduate from the local education system are labeled as WALKING DICTIONARIES by our Western counterparts. Spot on accuracy, right on target. 100% true. No wait, 120% true.



Most products of the Singapore education system (I’m saying a good 80%) cannot speak without the use of Singlish or articulate and enunciate a speech or written work with good proficiency. How many people can actually type or speak well in English? Just do a mental count, how many people, how many of your close friends can confidently handle the English Language or attain a certain level of socially accepted mastery?



Singapore is not dumb though, I believe the gahmen realized their stupidity and so now encourage people to concentrate more on soft skills. Soft skills are skills which are actually of some use in the real world eg. EQ, people skills, presentation skills, listening skills, observation, rapport building, decision making skills, problem solving skills, team working skills… FUCK YOU, YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE THIS 10 YEARS AGO? Morons. As a student many years back I COULD SEE THIS but you high flying ministers COULDN’T?

a little bit of foresight can go a longggg way

Now step aside. From a third person’s perspetive, you be the judge.



You evaluate.



Which is better?



Soft skills or Hard technical science/maths?



Take a leaf or two out of the American system. They diversify instead of specialize, being Jack of all Trades, they can survive and adapt well in most environments. They are good speakers who can impress. They know how to carry themselves well. They know how to WIN people. These are the type who will destroy the Singaporean A-A-A textbook memorizing student in most situations.



So Woon, I’m not weak in Maths, I had A-star for PSLE and A2 at O lvls. I just totally lost interest in maths when I went to JC. I have my own set of principles; I won’t learn something just for the sake of learning something. I won’t and don’t conform.



5. We Serve but don’t get Rewarded.



National Service, 2 years of the prime of every male citizen in Singapore = FOR FUCK?

laugh? you have barely survived 3months in the army, stupid privates

In the end we are 2 years slower than the girls. Most of my female friends have graduated already, I’m still stuck. Foreigners do not have to serve NS, they have no reservist liabilities. As an employer, do you want your employees to be burdened by the constant recalls of reservist?



I rather hire a foreigner who doesn’t have such a liability, would do the work for a much lower price and would work harder and longer than YOU, the stupid local boy.



Local Male degree holder–

Asking 3k basic

Got Reservist

When gana Overtime will KPKB

5.5day workweek also KPKB

Takes shit and plots future revenge against the boss.



Local Female degree holder-

Asking 3k basic

No Reservist

Enters industry 2 years before males



Foreigner

Asking 1.5k-2k basic

No Reservist
