minorites~

chillin at starbucks today made us realise how different we are from everyone else... eventhough we were all born in the same country, we had different influences which contributed to our different interests n personalities...

now, thats cool n all...
but personalities aside, we've adapted a completly different outlook on our way of life... n its because of this difference that we cant really relate to many people of this society~

its a mystery how we survived these 3 years of poly... i felt i could never really connect with the ppl in engineering... n i didnt really understand it either~ edd pointed out that if we had changed n gotten into the whole "singaporean teenager
persona, that if we had learned to like the things they liked or did the things they did... then yeah, maybe we'd have more friends, things might've been easier & life wouldnt seem as typical as we thought it was...

i think that we live in a society where we can't really BE who we are... we have to choose a "side" be it the Pool & Dota players, the emo-people, the clubbers or the ching-chong-changs... u cant just be 'that guy' anymore.. gotta be "special"~

things might have been easier if we'd adapted n changed with the majority... but, compromising what defines u for society just isnt wad its about... n im glad we didnt~

sure it sucks being the so called 'minorities' in terms of... uhh... lets classify it as, being the "typical singaporean"... its been difficult not being about to relate to strangers n all... but i dont regret being who i am... we're not the weird ones.. everyone else is... im sure once we move outta this place ( n im sure we all will.. hopefully) we'd fit in better else where, where ever it may be~

then when u guys go there, u'd know how it feels... when ppl talk of politics or give references to historical analoges, u'd be like..
"hey did u catch last night's 'hey gorgeous'? on channel U?"
"umm... no -.-"

so yeah, screw all of u~
