Mr Lee Hsien Loong, your arguments are circular, you take one example and turn it into one big point - I guess you didn't take GP. I wonder why people clapped when you said more flats are going to be available in the next few years. Education: "We provide many pathways for Singaporeans to succeed. Our education system is of top quality." OH. MY. GOD, do you hear yourself talking? Now university entry looks at so much more than academics, CCAs, out-of-school activities etc etc etc etc EXCUSE ME, everyone only has 24 hours a day. Half of it is now spent in school. My sister, at a Secondary 3 level last year, was already sleeping at 1am, waking up at 6. That's 5 hours of sleep. So the education system already wants to drain Singaporeans' energy even before starting the workforce. THAAAAAAAT'S GREAT! Sure, I'm proud to be Singaporean, definitely. But the government, kind of disappointing in terms of delivering their "promises". Another big question - why is it His Excellency President S. R. Nathan NEVER EVER EVER EVER sings the National Anthem or says the pledge? Perhaps he should be introduced to my secondary school principal, who made us sing and re-sing the National Anthem until it was audible.
P.S. Mr Lee, you blend into the background! Is that a safety-net policy you are implementing too in case people throw things at you?

I really have nothing more to say about the National Day rally. It may seem superficial to write those things above, but I have so many more better things to do than expand on this issue.

Day 9:

It was a rather sleepy day, I almost forgot I had tuition. Went for a short run in the morning and came back with a cute blister. It's really cute and not painful. Right now.

We're halfway there, or rather I'm halfway there.. It's really tough, never thought it would feel like this despite distractions like school. Really can't wait to be back in your tight hugs.
