Cos i am whatever you say i am....(radio won't even play my jam)

life is really mundane here...i wouldn't say boring but just plain simple. i go to school, come back, take a crap (hell i actually consistently crap around the same time everyday), lunch, go back to uni, come back, dinner, slack, study, and the whole process repeats itself the next day.
I'm really enjoying political science, so much so that i think i might actually consider a career in drawing political caracitures.....


my understanding of bilateralism, multilateralism and unilateralism.

stephan hawkings didn't succeed in finding the grand unified theory for physics. so perhaps i should consider a dissertation about in seeking to explain how sex relates in our search to understand our chaotic world haha.

The Grand Unified Sexual Theory in International Politics - Dr J. Goh hahaha...the lexigraphy should be something like that:


UNILATERALISM: The belief that the act of engaging in self-gratification is superior to all other forms of fornication. (adj. UNILATERAL)

BILATERALISM: The belief that the act of consumation involving only 2 persons is superior to all other forms of fornication (adj. BILATERAL)

MULTILATERALISM: The belief that the act of engaging in group carnal activities is superior to all other forms of fornication.(adj. MUTILATERAL)

POLARITY: The degree of rigidity in the male genitalia.

BI-POLARITY: The degree of rigidity in the male genitalia, specific to that of bi-sexual males.

MULIT-POLARITY: The presence of 2 or more POLAR POWERS in a MUTILATERAL act.

POLAR POWERS: Males with genitalia exceeding that of 8.0 inches.

FAILED STATE: One whose male genitalia is unable to achieve POLARITY

THE COLD WHORE: A frigid sex worker.

ACTORS: The likes of Jenna Jameson, Kobe Tai, Sylvia Saint, Akira Fubuki etc etc.

IDEALISM: The intense belief that oneself is a POLAR POWER

REALISM: The realisation that oneself is in fact a FAILED STATE.

NEO-MARXISM: The extreme belief that the only alternative besides UNILATERALISM for non-POLAR POWERS is to seek COLD WHORES.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: A BILATERAL act involving actors of different nationalities, eg Ron Jeremy and Annabel Chong

GLOBALISATION: The enlargement of mammaries through surgical means.

WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION: Viruses that maybe transmitted BILATERAL or MULTILATERAL acts that results in an immense loss of body mass. eg the HIV virus.

MUTUAL ASSURED DESTRUCTION: The unfortunate scenario when WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION are transmitted among participants of a BILATERAL or MULTILATERAL activities.

MUTUAL ASSURED DETERRENCE: The factor that prevents people from wanting to take part in BILATERAL or MULTILATERAL activities.

BALLISTIC MISSILES: A form of apparatus that ACTORS use when performing UNILATERAL acts.

NEGOTIATIONS: The process of price-haggling with COLD WHORES

COERCIVE DETERRENCE: The act of forcing someone to join you in a BILATERAL act against their wishes.

TERRORISM: A necrophiliac sado-masochistic fetish involving one or more masked persons sliting the throats of one person during MULTILATERAL activities while filming it at the same time.

Damn...maybe i am too bored for my own good...

Oh yes, unconstructive nonsense aside, i met the guy from Resistance (some Democratic-Socialist Club in UWA) on my way back to Trinity. He's called Fred. Apparantly he and another gal whose name i din catch are 3rd year Arts students and they would be showing some really obscure but very interesting documentary on the revolution in venezuela that toppled Hugo Chavez. They were the very people that orgainised a dialogue session with some Palestinian ambassador called Ali Khazar that i went for last week. I think they're also organising some demonstration against fee hikes. Looking at these young activists, i question myself, what is it that i stand for? do i have an opinion? i really dunno. Ask me, or any young Singaporean on their views of perhaps the American Invasion of Iraq, chances are the reply would be at best 'I hope it doesn't bring about a recession in Singapore', and at worst 'Where's Iraq?'. There has to be more meaning in life, than to be preoccupied about affording a five room flat, sending instalments for your new toyota corolla, or how much New Singapore Shares would the new PM Lee give when he gives his inaugural NDP rally speech. Beyond the materialism, what is it that shapes our identity, or for that matter, our perception of self-worth? Or are we simply the cynnical realists who have capacity to perceive our life only in terms of material gain? Did the Singapore education shaped this collective psyche? Like the average ambivalent Singaporean, I have no fucking idea. This reminded me of something my dad told me that he heard about when he was in China that kinda pissed me off in the past. In China, the people like to use rhymes (what they call a Shun Kou Liu) as a form of political satire. Here's one that rougly goes like this

Xiang Gang Ren Wu Li (Hongkongers are impolite)
Tai Wan Ren Wu Chi (Taiwanese have no sense of shame)
Xin Jia Po Ren Wu Zhi (Singaporeans are ignorant)


NABEH CHAO CHEE BYE!!!!! So is it our fault that they sent some unworldly retired SAF officer to take charge of the suzhou industrial park?? Is it our fault that his ingenuity resulted in a national embarrassment which our devices of national propaganda AKA Singapore Press had to reluctantly protray as a success in forging Sino-Singaporean ties...BY FUCKING RELINQUISHING our stake in the SIP? Ok fine, so even if we are ignorant, so be it. It's our national identity remember? the apathetic units of labour reared with no purpose other than to increase economic output. Whatever. If that's so, so be it, after all, if that's our idenity, let it be. After all, the worst thing besides being labelled as a collection of ignorant people, is not to have any identity at all....


We the citizens of Singapore,
Pledge ourselves as one united people.
Regardless of race, language or religion.
To build a democratic society.
Based on justice and equality.
So as to achieve, happiness, prosperity
AND PROGRESS FOR OUR NATION!!!!!!!
