hmmm. been trying to write more stuff these days. i seem very inspired to write poems. must be all the lit CT prep we've been doing in class (we had 4 periods of lit in as many days!). or maybe earlier. since my research on ella wheeler wilcox. anyway. everything seems so sub-standard and boring. so they're all abandoned halfway or left unpublished. well unpublished as in i don't like them so i just chuck them aside. will see how this goes on. hmm.
anw. some interesting things i observed these few days. well one interesting and one morbid. yesterday while taking the MRT back from simei after my checkup at CGH i noticed two girls walking with their shirts untucked, and right at the bottom of their shirts printed in
BIG RED CAPITAL LETTERS was the manufacturing company and their address. what a statement. of course if they had tucked in their shirts i wouldn't have noticed anything. so anw it seems like a good idea to prevent posers from tucking out shirts. i mean, you don't really look very poser with an advertisment for a clothing company so blatantly posted at your posterior.
today while coming home on the mrt again i saw this ad about "become a clinical research volunteer". which is really just a human test subject. applicants had to be between 21 and 55 and not have a history of chronic illness or be on long-term medication. which probably means that whatever they're doing to you is probably going to make you sick. which is really silly. i wonder if they get any people signing up for such dumb jobs. and i wonder if "clinical research volunteer" is listed in the government's list of jobs which are available but which singaporeans are too proud to take up. too common-sensical, more like.
