Okay, first thing, NEVER tell people u are impatient, cause they really will prank you :(
So according to my 5th wife Ho Pei Qin(more on that later), SCO groups were settled on Friday, she knew i got in, but Keh and gang wanted to mess with me. Cause i was really cocky during the interview >.> bringing the stupid Best ASCO trophy into the interview and putting it INFRONT of them..
So rach and ben got theirs on saturday afternoon, i found out at night, i called EP, then i DEMANDED him to tell me i got in, then he said sylvia was calling me :(
So i camped on msn, until so got in ( 12 am ) then i asked her to call me :(, but busy woman said no and say tml. Then stress, i went back from BFS Facil camp, 12pm and started waiting, and waiting.... then 8pm! Jia Le told me over msn we got in, then 830 then sylvia called and told me... EP supposed to call me -.-
EP will die! When he get sunburnt again i will pour chili over his body wahahahhahaha
Alright so since im in society :D i got 5 'wives'!!!
1. Keh Lim ( classmate!!!!! and ugh she the SCO CA !!!!)
2. Jia Le ( Partner SCO )
3. Wei Feng( Partner ASCO )
4. Deanna ( Totally no idea, i get her on tues,thurs,sat sharing with Yu Jie, Kenneth, any many more, open one! LOL )
5. Pei Qin ( SHE FORCE ME ONE!!! Kidding, no idea just decided that we talk a lot and lunch a lot too! )
Im thinking of getting ISSAC as the 6th, since hes so SMEXY but pei qin say cannot go both ways, must consider their feelings! Wa lao, ISSAC!!!!!! :(
Melvin said,' Why i care so much about society, than investment club' I just wanna say that, in loft, all my memories i could recall easily was from BA Society, Bamazing, BArnival, Bamp, Not DPA orientation, not last year BFS Camp, I'm sorry it has grown into me, Iv Club is something i have to stay inside cause of fearing for my attachment, BA Society is something i NEEDED.
With that, i am looking forward to Friday!!! Celebration with Jia le and Wei Feng @ Pizza Hut!!!!What a week to look forward to :)

Local Media
Was really busy the past few weeks, inspiration to blog kinda died of after awhile, but i got fresh inspiration off facebook!Alright here goes....
I used to watch local drama a lot, then we would call them the 7pm or 9pm shows and discuss about the characters and plot. I grew up, found greater interest in sci fi, liked english less and advertisements less too.
Hello people, I didnt say local media suck, their genre just didnt appeal to me.
Lets explore a few reasons why mediacorp do what they do:
1)Singapore Population : 5 million
See, with such a small domestic market,it is hard to have so many different things going on at once, everyone would most probably stick to a few channels. Hence most likely you get the normal drama shows, where its more heartfelt cause it appeals to most people.
2)Talent Pool
Lets face it people, you said it yourself, u are sick of every malay citizen winning the singapore idol etc,etc. I actually dare say that singapore actually is more talented then most country, why? More hardworking( or pushed), more competitive envrionment, u get the best brought out in you.Small country = lesser people = naturally smaller talent pool.
3) Singapore focus
In the past, singapore had to develop itself, hence it put a lot of emphasize on technical education, so that people can work in industrial areas, those people are our parents, they learnt it the hard way, study hard, good job = stable living, this thinking exists till today. I am under that influence too, maybe a few well to do parents have their kids learn piano, but if the kid were to pursue piano as a career, how many would agree?
4) Our expectation, comparison
Every artist, went thru critism, they handle it and come up better then they were.Lets see what u compare people with, Local artists with INERNATIONAL Artists, Local Football with EURO football, you see the the HUGE contrast ladies and gentlemen? yes thats what our aspring atheletes and artists have to face everyday, the good old singaporean critism.
No, im not asking u people to support the local media, I still dont plan on watch local drama. Im just warning those of the next big thing, people said singapore didnt make it, we become one of the most competitive country, and as you can see, we are one hell of a competitive state, i actually think we want to win in EVERYTHING, so let the art schools build up, and see how things goes, dont say i didnt warn you guys :)
