National Spirit
So, the new President of Singapore has been elected.
Stayed up for the results, but omg, there was a need for recount, so I went to sleep at around 2.45AM, wanting to wake up at around 4AM.

But NO, I forgot to wake up. Didn't catch Mr Yam Ah Mee releasing the results (yes, I was waiting for this, partly.) Too tired or maybe it's the effects of the medicine I had...so I got startled and woke up at 5.45AM instead.

Okay, it's really exciting to watch all these elections thing. The preparations towards electing, the rallies, media boardcasts, up till the announcement of results.

Who says young Singaporeans are apathetic?

I have probably gotten more excited cos I'm older now (my turn to vote in the next election), understand better, and yes, under the influence of the ex-colleagues.

So, I was still working when we had the 2011 General Elections. I am surprised, really, by all the political discussions we had in office, meal times etc. We were that excited.

And, I like that my ex-colleagues (in this case, the temp staffs like myself and whom I always hung out with) were all interested in this political affair. I wouldn't say they are hardcore supporters of any political parties, but they gave concrete explanations on why they would rather support this than the other party. We also analysed the different political parties, their backgrounds, credibility and of course, their agenda for the General Elections and outlook for Singapore and Singaporeans.

I WAS AMAZED. They didn't follow parties blindly.

Maybe because they are 21 and older. More mature in their thoughts and what they observed.


Just something I have learnt through...(going to the 'outside' world)
