sweet sisters
Sunday, May 07, 2006 (12:17 AM)
i was on my way to may's wedding dinner at around 545pm when i saw these two sisters on the bus. the elder sis looks around 14-15 year old and the younger one probably around 5. they were both dead tired and fell deeply asleep. then the elder sister's head gradually lowered and rested on her sis' shoulder. that was a really sweet scene. if i had a camera with me, i would've taken that scene and posted it here. then both woke up at one stop when the elder sis sat up straight to let her sis rest on her shoulder instead. i was thinking of a video this time round. it was really a wonderful scene to look at.
voting was yesterday and now i'm still watching the results on tv. they say voting is secret. but when you see people waving political party flags or celebrating when the results are announced, how secret is that? i'm still waiting for the results of my region since the wp candidates are said to be the most competent in history. then osim capitalizes on the voting hype by suggesting a pap candidate using their product called isqueeze in their commercial. white pants, going to coffee shops with a few people following and shaking hands with the public who stood up for the handshake, what else can the commercial be suggesting?
the results are still being announced but a few minutes ago, pap has already been voted into parliament with more than 50% of the seats. so far, sda retained potong pasir and wp retained hougang but these are single seat and so far, the opposition holds only 2 seats. pm lee hsien loong is on tv now for an interview. he's a gracious man. the channel 8 microphone had a bit of problem and we couldn't hear what he was saying then he offered to repeat the question and answer with the reporter again. no airs.
some time last month, blogs had to be registered to discuss politics though many didn't. well, i'm not really discussing politics here. i'm just reporting facts so i should be free from registering. though there are many votes that were rejected, the winning margins are so much that they don't really make a difference even if credited to the trailing party. that's as of now. 12:33am on my computer.
it was nice meeting guangwei and gang today. samantha was as interesting as usual and i've finally witnessed sandra's legend. she really tears easily. she can laugh so hard that tears just keep flowing out her eyes. saw a abe natsumi lookalike and she siman lookalike today.
my region's result is being reported now...
well, pap won by less than a 20% margin killing off wp's hopes of securing a grc.
i better stop reporting now or i might risk having to register this.
