Some Singaporeans Hate Singapore

You know what? Some Singaporeans hate Singapore. You know how I know? Because of THIS. Click the word THIS to go there. ANYWAY, THE LINK IS, http://www.ihatesillypore.blogspot.com
This guy thinks that he can give 1001 reasons why he hates Singapore. AND WHAT IS SO IRRITATING AND ANNOYING IS THAT HE IS A SINGAPOREAN AND HE HATES SINGAPORE! What about you go migrate, dude???! So far he has only 34 reasons. If he gets to 1001 I can SLAP myself. I can give some reasons why I LURVE SINGAPORE!!!

NOTE: Some information taken from the book SO SINGAPORE TOONS.

1) It is unique. Why? HAWKER CENTRES. YEA!!!

2) Singlish
Singlish is a language that Singapore uses that consists of fancy words, such as hokkien and English mixed. Then we also have words like CHOPE, when we want to reserve a seat for ourselves then we CHOPE it using tissue paper or belt or bead or water bottle or something lahh.

3) Wet Market.
Ok maybe other countries have also but aiyah, just say here la. WET MARKET is wetter than SUPERMARKET, obviously, but WET MARKET groceries MORE CHEAP! That's what we Singaporeans look for, CHEAPNESS of THINGS! Lalala, but maybe some people don't like dirtiness or wetness or what then they go supermarket blow their money. For example if in supermarket one packet(?) of celery is $2.50 but wet market you can get at $1 or less or more! Aiyah, I very long never go wet market with my grandmother/maid already lah, forgot already!

4) WORDS WE LOVE!
Shiok: Singaporean phrase for Amazing, unforgettable, fun, exciting, incredible, extreme pleasure.
Chope: AS MENTIONED ABOVE!

5) KOPITIAM!
Kopitiams are non-air conditioned eateries that are smoke-free.(I think)

6) Esplanade
The esplanade very very very tourist attractiony! Because, it is shaped like two humongous durians! The esplanade may look appetizing(sp? appetising?) to durian lovers. And I honestly admit that I hate durians. Lalala.

7) Multi-everything
Multi-lingual, Multi-racial, Multi-religious, multi-cultural, multi-tasking, and multi-storey carparks, and food, multi-layer KUEH!
(Otsuka Keiko, student, 10)

8) Singapore Flyer
Not every country has it's own ferris wheel/observation wheel you know!! The Singapore Flyer was opened on 15 April 2008. Singapore welcomed more than 10 million visitors in 2007!!! More than 70% of visitors were from Asia.

9) Flag
If you are given a social studies project in school about Singapore and you need to design a poster or something, then the first thing you might want to draw is the Singapore Flag! The Singapore flag is easy to draw, very noticeable and VERY NICEEE!!! The red and white makes it stand out abit, and then the moon and stars make it SUPER NICE! Sometimes I can't draw the flag properly though, because I am not the type of person that can draw the moon and the stars very nicely like printed out picture like that. Okay!

10) CLEAN AND GREEN!
Sometimes when you go to parks in Singapore hor, then the grass is like so green, the breeze is so cooling, the flowers are so colourful and eye-catching, it's like a park out of a fairytale or something.....THAT'S WHY SINGAPORE IS KNOWN AS THE GARDEN CITY. So when you go to parks don't throw banana peels on the floor or everybody will slip and break their backs. And don't spit cuz it's disgusting. I almost stepped on some spit before. Blah. Don't throw cigarettes on the floor. If you like to smoke then you still don't throw cigarettes on the floor. It's dirty. And don't smoke in places where you are not supposed to smoke because it poisons the air, you know?
