those are the pics i took in malaysia.well counting down to the day when school reopens.exactly one more week til we step into our A's year.yuckkkk.

putting all that aside, today marks one year after the tsunami disaster in asia. thinking back, that period of time must have been a terrible experience for those who suffered. i guess in our comfort zone, we do not think much about disasters and mishaps. we all take it for granted most of the time since singapore is such a safe country. maybe today God is reminding us that it's time we spared a thought for those less fortunate than us and not be blinded by the ignorance and apathy of others.

then i thought about the pile of rubbish strewn all over orchard when i went to town on christmas eve with shan and tiff. the ugly nature of singaporeans was clearly revealed and it's shameful and embarrassing. what an irony it is when tourists call singapore "clean and green". i wonder what their reaction will be if they saw the sight of orchard i saw on eve's night...
