What Kind Of Son Am I?

My mum has been wanting to buy a new pair of track shoes for quite some time now, with the situation at home i told her that ill use my army credit to buy for her because that way its free need not pay. She checked her size and told me. She kept reminding me to buy it. On thurs i was busy in camp but still that shouldnt be an excuse not to have bought the shoes. I could have bought it even though i was very busy. If it was say one of my friends who asked or even a girl who i like that had asked me to buy, i know i definetly would have got it. Sigh. Came home on saturday morning and saw the shoes there.Thats when i felt like shit, felt like why didnt i get it for her. There is no excuse because had it been somone else i mite had gotten it. Today i can say, i am a lousy son. Have been for a long time.

Family Matters

I realised over the weekend that im not as close to my family or rather not close at all. I dont talk much to any of them, at the most is just where and what im doing thats all. Kinda sad though, used to be damn close to my sister brother aunty uncle grandma mom and dad.No more joking with my dad, lying on my sis bed and talking to her,watching my mum cook,grandma feeding me her famous cooking,talking nonsese with my uncle and shopping with my aunt.

Use to do all this stuff with them...What happened? On sat when i went to church with my grandma and sis. I barely talked to them..my sis and grandma was talking so much and laughing and joking. At my aunts hse i just realised that instead of spending time with them, i was using the computer all the time.I use to go out with my brother so often doing stuff and playing and joking around, now i seldom see him.At home - what am i talking about when im at home its either im in my room sleeping, at the com, or im never at home.

Maybe its time i started spending some quality time with all these people. Always get angry with them when they tell me whats good for me and ended up quarreling. Time to try to help things get back to how they used to be.

Wasted A Saturday

I cant believe i had nothing to do and nowhere to go on a Saturday!!!I thought i was the only one who had nothing to do but it seem that alot of people couldnt make up their mind on what to do and where to go so, ended up doing nothing.

I came home from camp at about 11am.Training was alrite nothing that i couldnt take only that my back and hernia aches, back when i did the pull up and hernia after i ran. Reached home and no one was at home so i thought ill take a short nap but ended waking up only at 2.30pm. Went for novena mass and coffee with my aunty and sister, after that headed down to my aunt's place to kill time. Started making plans and asking people to go out but all were unsure, most of them didnt answer their phone..Eventually when plans were made, lots of them backed out because they had a wonderful friday and they are tired. Ended up sitting around my aunts place and eventually went out with some frens whom i didnt really want to join but joined them because ermm maybe i didnt want to feel like i wasted a saturday.

Headed down to town for some drinks..didnt drink though, entertained myself with card games, finally when the rest responded which was around 2am went over to lido to meet them, guess what.. they had no plans at all..haha...nearly all had no plans. Sat at lido macs til about3.30am after that headed home.

Still can consider the day wasted..So next time will learn from the mistake and plan in advance, so not to waste another weekend.

TGIF?Maybe Not

Friday!! Hmm.. Started training again today. Couldnt book out actually but i made an illegal book out and went for Shane's 21st birthday, as usual the birthday boy is drunk before 12, or rather before he cant cut his cake..haha..this time josh didnt do anything so we got to give him some credit. Went down to stjames afterwords for Perry's birthday. Kind of getting bored of the place already, maybe its because we always go to the same place. Was kind of boring on that day. Didnt do much. Didnt drink much,crowd and music wasnt fantastic either.Bryan as usual took his opportunity and drank to his hearts contents because talia wasnt around. Had to bring him for supper to sober him up before could actually send him back and then made my way to camp, after all my bookout was illegal..reach camp at 5.30am and slept only at 6am after washing up. Had to be in camp because had training on satday at 7.30am. So wasnt really much of an eventful friday.

Racist World

Its a fact. We live in a world full or racsim. Everywhere,Everyday,Every country and every person is a racist. Think about it. I was in a room where the majority of the people are chinese, there are a few malays and a few indians, but still the majority is chinese. The tv is on and its on the enlgish chanel. Not everyone is watching but there are people who are watching and yet doing other stuff. This guy comes in and suddenly changes the chaned to a chinese chanel. What a selfish act. He didnt even think about the other 2 races. What were they suppose to do now, sit there and read the subtitles on the tv screen or worst still if there isnt any subtitles, just sit there out of boredom. And if they happen to watch the show and happen to understand and laugh at something, the chinese guys would turn and give him a look as if " why you laughing when you dont understand the language" Why couldnt the guy at least ask before switching the chanels or ask if the others doesnt mind that he is changing to a non english chanel.

Not only in our country, all over the world. If an american goes to Saudi Arabia or Pakistan or Iran on any middle eastern country, they will get the same treatment. Eyes will be on them. People will be watching their every move or trying to intimidate them by looking at them. Just because they are foreigners they get this treatment. In Australia, I heard that some asians arent treated well they are looked down by the Australians and some times geting provoked by them.

In America. Its the Blacks, Whites, Latin Americans, Asian Americans they got their on war going on. As long as your from one of the ethnic group you stick with them.Very rarely do you see those of diffrent races hanging around with those from others. And if they do, they will get distrurbed by their friends. For instance, if a white kid and a black kind hung out. One day sooner or later either the black kids black frens or the white kids white frens will start to talk. Its just the way things are.

Right here in Singapore. Among the younger generation there isnt much of racism. You see indians,malays,chinese,sikhs,caucassions, all kinds of races hanging out together. And some are really good friends. And when they get disturbed by their friend by some racial joke its alright because thats how close they are. You see racism more amongst the older generation. The adults here, if they see an indian guy with a chinese girl, or the other way round they stare like its very wrong, or even a malay with a causassion, they make it seem as if its so wrong, Why are people so narrow minded. Why cant they open their eyes and see that the world is changing. That only they are the ones who can stop racism but they are not doing it.

I wont lie, I myself have at times been racist and im at fault. But then the fact is nothing will change.There will always be raicsm in the world. People can have no fault at all and they will be constantly attacked with racist remarks. The youth today are doing good, its the adults that are not.

I hope one day, there will be and end to racism
