Day 8 : Labour Day

Labour Day

Minutes passes by like seconds and hours drift by like minutes. A holiday which seems shorten due to the long lasting and heavy rain which means that we all are trapped at home and left waiting for the next time the sun emerges out from the dark clouds that are taking over the west side of Singapore. The unpredictable weather is probably the worst of all traits in global warming, usually in May-June season, we will be experiencing warmer temperature than the rainy season which should fall on year end. Luckily, we didn't planned to go out otherwise I would have a sulky look the whole afternoon. Afterall, I don't like having my plans screwed by the weather. However, today's holiday is pretty meaningless, we don't have anything to revise on nor adventures to make, waste of time listening to songs and playing phone games. How great will it be if I am able to go out with multiple friends everyday and not worrying about how much money I have left after the day. Having to check on how much I have in my wallet and deciding where to go just pisses me off. I mean, why is everything in Singapore so expensive. Meals in town can already cost a bomb if you were to set up a date and eat in a restaurant which isn't all that "atas". Fashion too, makes us having to buy clothes that are either brands that people recognise or people who can't afford more than 3 pieces of it. Everything in this world is about money, even making friends requires a play of your money. Being able to go clubbing which probably will cost 90 over dollars a night. I can't do it every week since my allowance is just 60 a week. I will overspend it sometimes as well, just to get good food which I then have to save some the following week. UGH! One day, I'll be successful and provide big and sturdy shelter for my parents and family as well as not worrying even when we are blindly picking out things and spending as and when we want..

Spend some quality time with my family, watching 蜡笔小新 and some chit chat about life, well it just the norms of a family day isn't it. I hope I can just complete my driving lessons asap... Don't wish to drag it to the very back and having to renew my PDL for another 25 dollars.
