Generally speaking, all Singporeans experience this, and you would have to agree with me no matter what. A day of 24 hours is simply broken down into: 9 working hours, (8am-5pm or 9am-6pm) for working adults, 8 hours of school (as in my case on the average, my study hours are from 9am-5pm) One spends 8 hours sleeping, making it 1/3 of a day (imagaine!) We spend a third of our lives sleeping, how productive.... Travelling to & fro takes us about 2 hours (to school & back, to work & back respectively) Another 2 hours for breakfast, lunch & dinner, assuming that one takes 3 meals a day. The above totals up to 21 hours. So we've left we only 3 hours. And they're either spend doing projects, assignments, exercising, bath time, slacking, going out. How much of time do we actually reserve for ourselves? It's just that mere 3 hours, but yet, we've got to cramp so many activities into that 3 hours.

Life's harsh isn't it? Has anyone thought of migrating? Well, i haven't really given a thought to that simply because i'm such a loyal citizen, and that i can't bear to leave Singapore. All rites, meaning, i can't bear to leave my family, friends & loved ones behind. I'll miss the local cuisine, i can't live without having my bowls of laksa, rojak, chay kuay teow and the list goes on. Most importantly, if one ever migrates, she or he will be treated as 'second-class citizen'.

In other words, i'll have to learn to survive in such a place called Singapore, no doubt, i complain lots about Singapore like our education system, why on earth do we need to learn CHINESE, why this why that. But i don't have a say, i'm just a tiny fly... but this tiny fly has to learn to tolerate the harsh reality.......

Does anyone disagree with me?
