civilised society.

went for a talk last night regarding financial planning. phones rang and beeped in the middle of the talk. why can't people just take a few seconds of their time and switched their phones to silent mode? courtesy to the speaker counts. and what irritates me the most is that subsequent ringing keep going on and on even after the first one. is this what we call a civilised and courteous singapore? do we really have to keep putting up advertisements and running courtesy campaigns for singaporeans to learn?

it gets even worse when they become obstacles when moving in and out of trains. the yellow lines are clear indication of the rules. is it really that hard to keep to one side of the line? or even move to the rear of buses when it is crowded? call this a modern society. i seriously do not think so. no number of campaigns would work if it does not drill into the minds of people and they do not learn from their mistakes.

went through another 3 hour seminar today. was the "target" by the tutor today with me having a easy name to remember since she is ang moh. i don't really mind what people want to know me by. primary school friends nicknamed me teddy bear, secondary school friends know me as lit yong, junior college friends call me litty, my army comrades started calling me ding. so if any of you call me a few times before i regconise u, i am sorry k? it's up to you guys whatever you all want to know me by. i like ding though. :)
