ministerial forum 2007

yeap... been some time since i updated all with my life (yup, it still sux). a very much lagged update, too.

2 days ago on thurs was the ministerial forum, organized by ntu student's union, n we invited MM to come give a talk... topic was "sg in the 21st century." being the hype that it alr was, i wun b saying much abt wat happened n wat was discussed in the forum. for those wif an interest to look at the media's coverage on tis event, here's 2 links:

ya. for the preparation of the event we assembled at ard 12 (i reached at 1 cos i had lessons n no pt getting a letter of excuse to skip my jap class). looked ard... talked to some frens... then told to wait... and so me n my fren decided to get a munchie from macD... my usual is 1 hamburger and 1 cheeseburger. total is 2.20... beats any other meal from can A cos its fast n the calories wil burn much longer, so i'll feel fuller for a longer time (since i hv to tahan a bit in the forum anw).

then... it came 4 when the police had to conduct a bomb sweep. we then "tuu" until abt 5 ard S4... eating a pathetic dinner (1 lunch box, which had reasonable tasting chicken rice "ketupats" and a scrawny drumstick. ketupat = rice cake or sthg like tat in malay. so the ketupat... u noe la. nb budget until like tat. i paid freakin 6k per acad yr for yr motherf*cking sake!)

then came forum prep time. dry run... tuu here... tuu there... but qt chop chop la. a lady instructed me on how to open the door - yup, i'm opening the door for MM - with a smile. we were supposed to rotate standing at the exit to prevent unauthorized exit or entrance. i.e. u've got some big shot talking, then suddenly this person rush in / wanna go out from the door near the big shot... wa kao cannot rite. but me n my partner stood throughout the entire thing! 3 hrs we predict. forum = 2, pre-forum = 1... station there wif one of MM's bodyguards. i think he stand until v lao jiao liao... like me stand sentry until v lao jiao too... i RP while in NS de. but now buay kan la.

ya then abt to reach the end of forum. actually its qt interesting la. humorous n engaging... then i think the bodyguard also like v happy the thing over. he stand until cannot le i.e. he started pacing up n down throughout like halfway thru the forum. boh bian leh... stand like tis all the time... hard. but the compensation shld b really gd too... so no complains.

then the MC came and wanted to thank MM then this gal from HSS (e lit i think) came to a mic near her and then started asking a question abt the suppression of artistic development in SG due to the censorship system... yadda yadda u can see this article in the links above... wa piang i stood abit far from our *esteemed* prof su i think he's face all chao... cos the question... kaoz. i dun even wanna repeat. WTF question - get yr gay parades out of my face.

lau kwee lau gar lau sai kee
(throw face until diarrhea)

ah piang. hey, tell u ah. i come from SG, learn my english in SG from p1 - j2. but hw come no one say i speak v gd english? (for those who attended the forum, they'll understand tis joke better).

of cos la, look at hw i write my blog, wanna say i speak v gd english also cannot find reason to say.
