Overwhelmed by approaching deadlines
Overwhelmed by the Projects, presentations and term papers deadlines. Time never seems to be enough or maybe I am wasting too much time.
I got my Abn psyc quiz results. Totally disgusted. 64/75. Speaks for itself. Period.
Exams is less than a month away. The mere thought of it sends shivers down the spine, induces countless nightmares, revokes peaceful nights, metamorphosize butterflies in the stomach. Well..not that serious yet but if I do not take action soon...
The talk of elections is all over town. Widely publicized by the papers daily. PAP hopes to get back all the seats from the oppositions and maintain a single party government. Isnt that what they say at every general elections? Well, I'm not keeping abreast with updates of this upcoming elections. West Coast GRC is not being contested. Walkover. There goes my voting chance again. Let's not even say MPs walking aroung to shake hands, putting up posters during this election period, I've not even seen my MPs once in my 8years of stay here, less shake their hands and say Hi. Last elections in 2001, my GRC was also walkovered. So much for a democratic state.
Some politician from the opposition was jailed for a day and fined a few thousands bucks. He was declared bankrupt previously because he failed to pay punitive damages to the plaintiffs. So being bankrupt he obviously cannot pay the fine and therefore he was put behind bars for another 6days. Another such opposition leader, is involved in a reckless driving charge pending trial, the prosecution are willing to change the charge to a less serious one provided he plead guilty. Strangely, politicians are getting involved in lawsuits as the elections draws nearer. Under the act, anyone convicted with a sentence of more than 6months jailterm and is fined with 2000bucks or more, are not allowed to run for elections.
Politics is just a game of survival. The fittest survives. The weak ones sacrifice. PAP suffered a freak election results in 1984. Will it happen again? Now the baby bonus is for all. No more is it only for Graduates couples with kids. The legacy will prevail, I supposed.
Why the hell did I start talking about politics for? Maybe I should move to Hougang or Potong Pasir. It is should be more exciting over there. Just filling up some survey forms will blow up into such a big matter. Poor residents. Maybe I've made the right choice of not going into Political Science.
Oh..I read this interesting article on the papers last week. It says that under our constitutional act, loans of whatever amount that one lends to a friend or relative, the creditor has to retreive the full amount within a period of 6years from the day the debtor borrowed the money. After 6years, this loan will be void, so even with a contract or IOU, it will not be accepted as evidence of loan to the court. It will be taken as if this loan never existed. So hurry! Go borrow a few hundred thousands from your friend now, be a arsehole and delay payment for 6 years and after that you are free from debt. That is provided he is dumb enough not to take legal actions against you in that period of 6 years. Many attempts had been made by people in the legal profession over these years to evoke this act, but apparently it still stays. For good or bad? I don't know.
