There's been more talk on the next elections, but something I'll like to point out.
Before the election, there will be many benefits, like GST and household utilities rebates and Lift Upgrading Projects. This year's NDP heartlands venues namely: Bishan, Choa Chu Kang, Eunos, SengKang, and Woodlands apparently should be the areas where PAP support are not as high as these places previously did not host any events. I think the objective is to rally support for the upcoming elections.
Then again, as in the previous election, after PAP was voted again, people started complaining as GST and CPF Minimum Sum was increased. This year and the last was quite dormant, if you had noticed it as well. By 2012, the Government had said that GST will be increased to 10%.
However, despite all the complaints, Singaporeans will still vote for PAP. But I wonder how much I can take.

Future Epidemic
Yay! It's time for a post with new content and not the same usual rantings.
Because my grandmother has this condition called "shen she" - something about a snake, it was brought to my attention that there exists various conditions that science is not the perfect solution. Apparently, it should be cured by traditional methods - not even Chinese medicine is the best remedy. The condition is painful, similar to scalding by hot water. It's itchy but scratching it will spread it quickly. Apparently, after a night, it will spread quickly in a circle around the part of your body. It is said that when it comes full circle, the illness is now fatal. Hence the snake name as snakes are more active at night.
I've always been supportive of Chinese medicine - things that are natural, and now there's a new realm of medicine that dates earlier into the past millennium.The traditional therapy is not intrusive. According to my father, they measure using a rope from a point - presumably from the origin of infection. The doctor then will come to a Aha! moment and take a lighted candle and push it past the rope. The candle will be extinguished. Repeating this makes up one session. By the second session, most would have recovered. My father said it's to burn the eyes of the snake and consultation should take place at night.
Now, the Singapore Skin Centre may be able to cure it, but it's not as effective and the time for recovering is longer. I think that in the future, these old diseases will creep up to us again, in a time where those minorities would have become non-existent, in a time where those medicinal plants are replaced by Brownfield sites.
I really hope to preserve everything we have. That's the beauty of the world.

现在,连骂自己的力气也没有。昨天,再一次地让我经历历史。
是跑不了,逃不掉我这命中注定的孤单生活。
All I wish is for another's voice to be in unison with mine.

18 July 2010 Podcast
She's (Mother) Really An IDIOT!
She was vacuuming the floor. Now, I was trying to help her to switch it off, but the wire was entangled. Now, she was the one who started vacuuming and must have noticed the looped wire as she has to plug in the socket. You know what happened?!
SHE BLAMED ME FOR VOLUNTEERING TO ENTANGLE THE WIRE!!!
How could I if one end of the plug is in the socket and the other is in the vacuum cleaner which she is operating at the moment?
AND SHE CHIDED ME FOR NOT UNTANGLING IT!!!
Now, how am I supposed to do it if she was using it? Am I supposed to cut off the power and get scolded this way? Or should I be scolded the present way?
I'm really in too much anger I can't form words.
I Don't Want To Live In This House ANYMORE!
