a bad start of the day... but......

yeah, a helluva bad start of the day. was late for meeting before work today, and then the whole dept got scolded by our boss. not once but twice. and like it's our fault. we're so obviously shorthanded, he insisted that we aren't. he should come out of his office more often instead of playing games inside.

only got off work damn late. when it's a SATURDAY.

but... things turned for the better once i met my boy. : )

on the side note, we witnessed this father lecturing his son pretty loudly just because he used singlish and dragged his 'yeah'. and the kid looked like 10 years old? it's damn ridiculous. he said he was even going to slap him if he continued to speak like that. his parents should really lighten up man. i mean, it isn't wrong to teach children how to speak properly. but to go to that extent? to forbid a kid to speak in a particular way or he'll be beaten? i and JX were rather perturbed but i thought it was best not to interfere on parents teaching their kids, unless they are obviously abused. but the poor boy looked like he was on the verge of crying. being in a multilingual society like ours, it's difficult to not have languages mixed? speak proper english? who determines what's proper? why are the white's english proper? cos they're monolingual? what's so good about knowing just ONE language? and singlish IS a language in its own right. it has grammar rules! isn't it better to know more languages, be it singlish even, but to use them in the right context?

we SHOULD be proud of singlish! afterall, it's the purest and truest product of Singapore!

anyway, back to my life, today's the eve of my first year anniversary with my boy! and....... i've experienced the most beautiful thing today.. i was so touched. thank you dear, for everrrything.. and... my baby got me an engagement ring! : )

i'm engaged! congratulate me!!
