Zipped on a trip to new campus yesterday afternoon. It was pouring i tell you, non-stop for 3 plus plus hours. The new campus looks not so huge from outside, but inside, i think you will get lost very easily. 7 storeys of rooms, rooms and more rooms. The LTs are huge. There will be seminar rooms and discussion rooms (or as matin puts it, quickie rooms! haha). The assembly area is still not sheltered, meaning we will die under the hot sun again. There will be new tennis courts, squash courts, this and that courts, new field with imposing floodlights! And even talks of an indoor basketball court! Ah, wonderful news for bballers. There will be a building dedicated to the science labs. A building for the auditorium! Wah, even more wonderful news for the performing groups. But one big problem i see will be: HUMAN CONGESTION. not just traffic congestion or road congestion. imagine Bishan MRT and Lornie Road in the morning rush hours. Oh god, save us! Hopped on a visit to Geylang Serai Bazaar. Sole purpose, to find Hari Raya costumes! haha, after wearing my father's costumes for like 2 or 3 years, its time for new ones of my own. Found 2 pairs all on one shelf. Not very choosy, just picked those of colours which I haven't had before. Wah, cannot wait to try them on during Hari Raya! Geylang si paku geylang... Its really getting from bad to worse. In recent years, newspapers, especially Malay newspapers, have shown the incredible drop in modesty levels. From teenage girls sporting micro skirts, ultra tight singlets, revealing outfits to teenage boys sporting the flashiest of hair colours, dozens or so piercings and tattoos. And chances are many of them smoke. They mix around as freely as though they have no religion. Yet when you ask them, they will say they are Muslims. Why then do they still behave as such? Don't their parents even say anything? Or do their parents also sport the same attitude towards religion? They behave as though they are rich and cool, but in actual case, they are very poor, both in terms of money and in terms of iman. Why is this happening? Malays are always like that, this time its just getting worse. Its very shameful to even talk about but if people like me and you do not realize about this aspect of society, then who will? We cannot expect others but ourselves to change this attitude. Saying 'nevermind' is never going to work. What will? God pls tell us what will? :(
