Rejoice!

An Olympics medal after 48 years!
Rejoice Singaporeans!

I think it's really good for us that we have achieved this feat.
The strength of a nation is usually reflected on the sporting stage as well and its a way of telling the rest of the world that we have arrived, if they do not already know.

You just have to feel proud when you see your nation's flag flying high in an Olympics final. Yup, they are foreign imports no doubt, but at least they played their hearts out for their adopted nation.

I know it sounds somewhat contradictory to what I had mentioned in an earlier post but let's face it, it would probably take a few decades for us to groom someone of that calibre, judging by our limited population.

That is why the PM is asking us to marry earlier and have more children. Will everyone please respond to the nation's call and do the right thing?

Me? I think when I start a family, I will at least have 2 kids. Being the only child in a family will only make growing up so lonely and boring. Having a playmate, someone to share your stuff with, a bro or sister to quarrel your way through, all these make up for precious memories...
Absolutely priceless.

I think I would have liked to have a sister but it was not to be. My parents had wanted that too but somehow when one and one adds up, only my two brothers and I are produced. Haha. I'm not complaining but the thought of having a sister to care for would be nice.

Alright, time to get back to the books.. One more paper to go on Wed and I'm done!
