DAY SIX.Dear Stranger,
strangers, actually.
because so many of you went down that same path.
it didn't start out that way.
well actually, come to think of it, it did.
suppose we all start out somewhere as strangers.
i guess i just didn't think it would end up there again, but worst,
because we both know what we lost.
even more so, because i know it's gone for good but i don't mind.
not particularly.
this is for you all who, for a fragment in my life,
shared a little, special connection with me.
the one who i'm happy is out of my life.
the one who meant the world to me for a while back then but i broke your heart like how you did to me and i don't regret anything because it opened my eyes to the world for a while there,
the one who i gave so many chances to (and to be fair, you gave me too) and it may seem like everything's fine on the surface but i'm telling you truthfully now that it isn't because inside, we will never get anything back from the past,
the one whom i misjudged because it turned out that what everyone said about you was true and i was dumb for believing everything you said because i was supposed to be on your side then, but just know that you left for a momentary gratification and it wasn't me who left.
it's not that we no longer talk,
i guess we do, but we're strangers.
it's not like i reached this unreasonably,
haha, nevermind. we all grew up eventually.
but thank you for that point of time where we never knew we needed anyone else.
it came and then it left, but really,
the point is that at some point, it happened and i'm glad it did.
and strangely enough,
am also glad it's over.
because there comes a time when you finally realise that one person who makes you understand why it didn't work out with anyone else.
we all did.
love,
gina.
***
think it's the first time we all bothered about the elections,
because in the past there was no competition to chase
i don't know, i suppose it's good that people finally want to have a say
shows that we actually bother
but it's just bloody annoying how you can pin everything onto the pap
and vote for opposition just because you don't bloody want to vote for pap,
like that will solve anything.
i mean, it's stupid how you expect the government to tend to your every whim and fancy
or you will start complaining, if you have problems and insecurities with the way your lives are turning out then why isn't it your own fault? it's weird how you complain about the government not providing enough for you when you COULD have prevented this from the start.
it's ungrateful. i mean, i knew we have certain distinguishable characteristics, but i never thought ungratefulness might be one.
i suppose having opposition in parliment will keep things in check,
and yeah they did work hard for this but why don't they just think for the future, instead of trying to relieve their current anger towards the government and just because they were blinded by their emotions, they just forget entirely about the bigger picture?
so when that screws over, who you going to blame then??
i honestly don't see how any country can please every citizen.
it's not that pap is perfect, but do you really expect opposition to be better?
it's always like that and i hate it, how when in the face of a challenge, everyone just dredges up the mistakes, but give shit about what you actually did and did well.
i gotta admit i like nicole seah a bit more. not that i think she deserved to win, but rather, i can see why people are tripping over their feets to shake her hand. she knew how to win everyone over, and seems to be speaking from her heart (i guess), but it's ridiculous la. how can you possibly vote for someone entirely new over your own senior minister? and then knowing how near we came to losing our sm. like, wtf, so she caught your attention and respect for a while, and so it gives you a reason to bloody forget everything done for you before?
but still, she's promising i think. probably will go far idk. the point is it's not wrong to want to give someone like her a chance to prove herself, and yes she hears the people out and stuff (though we really shouldn't be worshiping her just yet until she actually does something to prove her worth), but really. we have all forgotten who lead us here and built the road we now step on to rally against them. actually, i suppose it's subjective. to your own views and blah blah shit.
realised that 'giving the opposition a chance' isn't a good enough reason for pushing off our foreign minister. why don't people think of the implications?? no, really. why!? we all couldn't believe it. my dad my mom my sis and i just stared at the screen blankly.
but i guess singapore has shown what she wants.
scared for the next elections, because if it cut so close this year,
who can imagine how the next one will turn out?
you wanted your change? you got it.
but if it turns out to be not as good, don't start blaming the government again because you put those people there.
and to mr george yeo,
RESPECT.
