I see friends shaking hands, saying ' How do you do? '. No picture today I guess but I figured out that the world is still filled with people who just wants to make your life miserable. Having said that, I do not wish to be involved in such immature and chilish situations where I am vulnerable in getting hurt.

Work politics, love it or hate it?

Read the newspaper today and I found out that my country has around 2 million PRs.. and the real citizens of this country are a mere 1 million more than them. Wow.

I feel threatened.
Jobs, jobs, jobs.
Money, money, money.

Being only 17(in 1 more day's time), I can't help but already feel that we, citizens of this beautiful country, are losing our ricebowls to these PRs and other foreign talent. Look what education has fortunately reminded us of reality. Goodness gracious.

In probably 5 tp 7 more years to come, I will officially join the workforce in this country and compete with possibly 6 million more or so other citizens, PRs and foreign taletns. Not only that, my country had just signed with another country and more foreign workers are coming to join us in our big happy family.

I'm so worried.
Nonetheless, I believe that if we have the skills, the potential and the determination, no matter how many people are there here, the real citizens will still have our place. (:

No offence though, to PRs and foreign talents.

I'm just lacking of confidence that I will lose to you guys. =/

On the flip side of things, I feel that no matter what, humans are still very hypocritical. Who isn't? Probably at some point of your life, perhaps?

On a happier note, I've decided on a couple of dishes that I would like to learn how to cook!

- laksa
- fried carrot cake
- char kway tiao
- hokkien mee
- almond logan dessert
- creamy garlic butter sauce pasta
- har kow (crystal prawn dumplings)
- Mee Siam
- Mee Goreng
- Mee Rebus
- Chwee Kueh

and also, master my orh luak. It's still not up to standard. esp learning how to make the awesome chilli sauce.

I feel really motivated to cook good food and I believe that knowing how is a great skill and knowledge to have.

Not really interested in baking cookies or cakes because I don't really have a sweet tooth.

I'm a 'salty, oily, super unhealthy food' person.

I can forsake materials things if I have to choose between food beyond heavenly and things that I have on my wishlist.

I'm a glutton and we all know it. (:

P.S. There's a resident lizard in my room and it's freaking me out. =/

1 more day!

Speaking of which, all my earphones are spoilt. XD
