I'm scared

Okay here I am rushing out my blog post before my brother takes over the computer again .

Today morning when we were on the way to Malaysia my mum informed everyone that recently , there had been a shooting at Pelangi ( a shopping mall in Malaysia ) . A security guard who had RM100,000 on him and was on the way to the bank to put the money in was robbed and shot in broad daylight .

I was terrified .

What further horrified me was the fact that when someone called the police , they REFUSED to go over to help . If I'm not wrong , the person who picked up the call said,"Pelangi too far away, you want to call then you call nearer branch . "

OMGWTF .

Can you imagine if there was a shooting right here in Singapore . In Jurong Point for example , and you call for the police while staring wide-eyed at the scene in front of you . Then the policeman says," You call the Jurong branch lah , here very far. "

Peoples' lives are at risk because no one bothers to do something about the security . Tighten the security and put more men on patrol . Maybe that'll do the trick.

What is the world coming to ? A robbery and a shooting , both in BROAD DAYLIGHT . This is scary .

Suddenly everything seemed so uncertain . If you do not take the necessary precautions to keep yourself safe , it could be a fatal mistake .

Anyway , we went to Malaysia as usual against my protests and had the piano lesson . My teacher marked the stuff I did and careless mistakes peppered everywhere , as usual .

To tell you the truth , I hate checking my work . I just can't be bothered . Once I complete a question , I have no intention to look back again at it . And I do not . I just hate checking . And when I get back my results , once they are satisfactory , I do not listen to my teach as he/she goes through the paper . I do not like to look back at things that cannot be undone .

Anyway, my theory exam is coming ; it's on next Saturday , and my key signatures are still .. not memorised . Arggh . I hope I pass .

Slight digression : I take after my dad ! I'm tall ( considered quite tall ), have big hands, am greedy and look like him . But he likes my brother more than me ! =( End of digression .

There's going to be a flury of activities from today onwards . Tomorrow I have to stay back for dance and go for guitar lesson after that , followed by a trip to SAFRA again for shooting on Tuesday . Wednesday's cross-country , Thursday's for IMT and Friday we have the service for the netball tournament .

Somebody please help me .

My mum touched on the topic about superficiality today on the car .

Why do some people camplain that others are 'acting chio' or whatnot ? Everybody wants to look presentable . Besides, it is a PRIVILEGE to look pretty .

Firstly, it gets you noticed , either for job opportunities or maybe a chance to go overseas . If your boss likes your face , then it's a case of 'Sorry-all-the-ugly-people-out-there' and off you go to Italy or whatever .

Secondly, you get boyfriends/girlfriends easily , though they dont last for very long . Yes , we ARE superfical . We all are . It's an undeniable fact . I'm not saying that all guys are MCPs or 'bastards-that-only-care-about-a-girls's-looks' but it's true . Unless they really love you for your character , given a better choice they'd rather go for it .

Sure , people who have average or less-than-average looks were born that way and it's not their fault the turned out like that . People like that may rant and complain about why the prettier and more handsome people always get the guys and get the jobs but it's just like that . First impressions are formed through how you look and how you dress .

My conclusion is that it is not a crime to look nice and presentable because no matter how we deny it , we all want to look good , because that makes us feel good about ourselves and it boosts our confidence .

Oh well . I've said so much . Time for me to sign off now .
