Love hate relationship with Singapore

Over the weekend, the BF and I hopped over to Singapore. We flew on a budget budget airline cos the BF's airline's prices were not cheap, and even as crew it was still not cheap. And as I am not in the airline, and I was doing the booking, I owe his airline no loyalty.

I learnt a few things over the weekend in Singapore:-

1. Singaporeans are very very rude.
BF: *asks lady at the drinks counter in food court at Raffles* Why so angry-la?
Lady: I DONT LIKE LA!CANNOT MEH?

2. Singaporeans are a stickler for rules (thats why until die also, same Government)
Airport Guy: Excuse miss, you cannot take a picture here. (we were at the tarmac just before boarding the plane)
Me: Why?
Guy: For security reasons.
Me: What are the security reasons?
Guy: *???* Security reasons-la.
(What? I am going to take a picture of the budget airline and then plan a hijack is it?!)

3. Singapore Changi Airport sucks.
At the arrival gates, no cars can stop outside the terminal for arrival. Not even a 15 mins grace period. So, everybody has to park their cars, even if you want to swing by, grab the person you're picking up from the airport and speed away, you CANT. Cos the arrival terminal does not allow any cars. What type of stupid nonsense is that? Then why bother with an arrival hall which has doors which lead outside? Nobody can stop there to pick up anybody. The arrival hall should lead straight to the car park-la.

4. Clubbing in Singapore is a bore.
Who the hell would allow GUYS on the podium or in cages? In Malaysia, if you are a guy and you jump on the podium to show your dance moves, you will be pulled off it so fast, you may suffer a whiplash. There, its acceptable. Seriously. It's heinous.
And why are girls who look 15 yrs old allowed to even go into clubs? And what is up with the clothes the girls are wearing?!

5. Singaporeans like to go clubbing alone (or they just have very very very bad friends)
Man on podium dancing came alone. Man curled up in udang kering position at the side of the road obviously came alone, or his friends abandoned him.

look ma, no friends!

And the other guy a distance from udang kering, slumped on a chair at the side of the entrance to the parking at Clarke Quay, more likely than not, came alone too.



look pa, no friends!

And the guy throwing up on the bench in the rain, bent sideways cos he was obviously too drunk to bend over in front, must have come alone too.

6. The BF can sure as hell complain alot on a flight which is not the airline he works for.
Why the girl so ugly wan? Why the pilot so lembap? He should have turned as soon as he took off! Why is the stewardess so rude? What type of boarding room is this?! How come they are so lembap in their boarding process?

7. Singapore is a beautiful beautiful systematic city with lots of work opportunities for me (pity the people there though).
I love the country, I love the city. But the people. Well...it could do with an upgrade.

Lastly, if a Singaporean says : WAH, you MUST try this!It tastes DAMN GOOD!

It's bullshit. Singaporeans don't know jack about good food.
