Singapore sucks.
I have no freedom.
Its boring here.
I feel restricted on this Island.
If you're one of those who feel this way, then Im going to irritate you.
Recently, my family and I moved in with my Uncle. Now,that means we'll be living in Singapore after sooo long! And those of you who find Singapore unappealing, I'm sorry. I cant help myself.
SINGAPORE IS PERFECT! No, seriously. In my years of experience living in Malaysia, I've been able to make a comparison between the two countries. Its so convenient here in Singapore! In Malaysia, you'd have to travel EVERYWHERE BY CAR! EVEN TO THE GROCERY SHOP!.All your friends are here too. Back in Malaysia, its really eerie. Its quiet back there. Sure, you get to buy CHEAP clothes and drive and enjoy magnificient views and walk up and down the second floor of you house, But if you were to weigh the amount of sacrifice you'd have to make, I don't think its worth it.
Sometimes you'd have to lose something VALUABLE to really, truly, fully, appreciate it. For me, it was my Freedom. So go on, sulk, complain, moan. Argue that your parents dont let you out with your friends.But unless you live in London and travel to school everyday from there. You have my permission.
Why in the world did I complain
Now you've left me with regret
Life here was always plain
But oh, we humans just forget
The conveniences we have, taken for granted
No value imposed on the things that matter
Dont you know that things are rented?
Once unpaid,"SEE YOU LATER!"
Till the day we lose what we didn't hold dear
We'd probably never know its true value
Its like a crayon, dancing around the sketchpad
That color our lives and make things vibrant
Once we lose that vital companion
So valuable, it left behind a drawing
One thing then, will be for sure
Regrets are all that will be coming
