just came back from some southwest CDC community thingie...
and there were ugly singaporeans...left right and centre!
what do i mean??
well..when there are free gifts..there are the kiasu aunties who...well, are KIASU!



auntie in pic above has just taken about 10 of the free gifts being given out...and she is putting them into the plastic bag..and she was telling the auntie holding plastic bag "go and distrbute then come back for more hor!" wth...


and while plasticbag auntie goes to distribute free gifts to her kakis...other auntie continues to take free gift! wah kaoz!! auntie..let other people have their chance lah!
(hopefully noone can recognise the auntie here...i dun have the software to do mosiac..can only invert the colours..)

and this is one of the better scenarios i witnessed today.

some of the booths have quizzes which the answers are found on the exhibition boards near the booth... and they are giving out free gifts based on how many corrects answers there are..

logically speaking, each person only supposed to take one sheet correct??
but of course, the kiasu ones took like 3-4 sheets...and guess what, they dunno the answers!!
so? they anyhow answer lah..and then give back to the booth person...
who then proceed to give the smallest gift because all the answers are wrong...
end of story??
no way...

kiasu people: ehh, i dun want this one..i want that one (points to the bigges available gift)
booth person: that one for those who answer correctly!
kiasu people: aiyoh! the questions so hard! how i know the answers?
booth person: (looks irritated) the answers are found in the exhibition there (points to posters)
kiasu people: HUH?! still have to find answers? so troublesome! just give me lah!!
booth person:(while trying to check the answers for another person) cannot lah. please, take this one (gives small gift)
kiasu people: (walking away) where got like that one? cheat money one!

oh, and did i mention there are people who are holding multiple sheets of paper...and going around saying "i dunno the answers! how? how??"
for one moment, i feel like telling these aunties (yes, all aunties leh!))

AUNTIE! DUNNO THE ANSWERS THEN DUN TAKE SO MANY LAH!PEOPLE WHO KNOWS THE ANSWERS DUN EVEN HAVE THE CHANCE BECAUSE U TAKE SO MANY!!

but of course, i din say lah. what's the point right?
so, here i am..venting out my disgust on my blog...

and it's not just the kiasu-ism all around...it's also the higly disorganised games...
very very unsafe...
uneven ground...poorly constructed props...lousily explained rules
and all in all...i feel that i've pretty wasted my precious sunday morning...

well..every thing has a bright side right??yeah..the bright side is
i got to take pic with mark lee and this other guy called aaron (who is apparently quite popular too)


haha..i love my unimelb top..makes me look slimmer!!

and i did manage to catch a demonstration of how CD will deal with a chemical attack...quite interesting...

so...there goes my sunday morning...cannot believe i woke up at 7.30am this morning for such atrocity...
though i must say..kiasu-ism is alive in everyone...
point being..must learn to control yah??
once again...
i am disillusioned...
and well...sometimes, the reality is just too harsh to face...
so,
i choose to escape back into the fictional world...
and let reality take a back seat for the moment...
