To PM Lee

To the Prime Minister of Singapore (I hope he reads this and not one of his in-bred lackeys who couldn't find their own arses with two hands and a map).

My name is Kenneth Lim, and one day I would like the honour of serving as the Prime Minister of Singapore. However there is a slight problem. My surname as you can see is not "Lee" and I do not come from a politically well-connected and elite family. My parents are simple working class people doing their very best to provide for their family, not millionaires. As for me, I did not study at some prestigious university, rather a working class one in Melbourne, Australia; it's called Swinburne University. I am also not a brigadier general or some other fancy paper-pusher, mindless rank in the military. I am a simple person who studied at St. Patrick's Secondary and am proud of it. Most of my close friends are heartlanders as am I to an extent. But I think my most important failing is that I am incapable of "kissing ass", or as the older generation would call it "carry balls". The only thing which I can offer to the people of Singapore is honesty, zero political bullshit and the ability to sympathise with the common man and have the will to do something about it; having spent most of my life in a housing estate neighbourhood. I am also well read in a global sense. So is there still a chance for me to become the Prime Minister of Singapore in the future?

Kenneth Lim

I am seriously considering e-mailing this to the Prime Minister's office. Although I highly doubt there will be a reply, seeing as how the government is always busy planning new ways to fleece Singaporeans of their money.

How far we've come

The title speaks for itself.

How Far We've Come

Matchbox 20

Been a long journey, met loads of people, kept in touch with some and lost touch with others (as it always is in life). Almost the end now, I think I can see a ray or two of flight streaming in from the end of the tunnel. After this, life truly begins (well after NS but you know what I mean). To those who've graduated good luck on getting a job. To those who are nearing the end as well end it in style. And for those with a year or two to go or have yet to begin, enjoy whatever you can while it lasts, 'cause when it's gone, it's gone. And to not end this post on a depressing note, TIME FOR ZOUKOUT PEOPLE! (well almost in anycase)

Older, and hopefully wiser

Just a short one before I turn in. Thanks a lot guys, really appreciate everything. For someone with a rather large vocabulary the only word which comes to mind now is "speechless". Thanks a bunch again.

None too cryptic

Had another nightmare last night; which in itself is nothing special, been hard to get a peaceful nights sleep over the past few weeks. Probably due to the late nights I've had to pull since it's the tail end of the semester and there's an assignment or test due every other week, all a prelude to the finals in mid-November. But something about last night's dream unsettled me more than usual. "What is it?" you might ask. Well, I dreamt of reality. And I think it has gotten a bit more colder in here.

Take Me To Eden: Reveal The World

Sounds like a hymn, could be a hymn and should be a hymn. And I'm sure no one expected this song to be an insert in an anime, called Eden of the East, which coincidentally enough also has Falling Down by Oasis as it's opening theme. Fantastic anime, brilliant plot and a brilliant soundtrack. It's a bit of a political anime and definitely gets your brain thinking of all the "What if's" and I'd recommend it to anyone who's looking for an anime with substance.

"Please continue being a Messiah"

Love song to nobody

Simply marvellous song by May'N. Brilliant lyrics, emotional, heavy; frankly no words can even begin to describe the feelings you experience when you hear the song and understand the lyrics. I'm really not fond of mushy emotional stuff but just this once, I'll make an exception. So listen, and remember, love lost. Because deep down that prickly expletive laced exterior, is a good ole' fashioned romantic.

ANIME! Bakemonogatari

Just gotta post the third opening and the ending themes to Bakemonogatari, this new anime which Andrew introduced to me. It's a strange show to say the least, dealing with supernatural events. While it's overall a funny show it does have it's serious moments. Well designed characters and an interesting plot I'll say that it's one of the "must watch" anime's of the season.
