If people say that all the good ones are taken
and the only ones left would be the singles
and nobody is the right one
so the good ones are the right ones
so the right ones would be the singles no?
Flawed logic.

What if...
What if you found a girl pretty
and said so
and people mistook it as you had a crush on her
and teased you
though you got mesmerized by her looks.
And during the next few years
occasionally you would wonder what happened to her
where she went and how she was doing
And nine years later
you see her in a facebook picture
of a friend from primary school
who added you
from a godsister since primary school
whom letters were exchanged
for seven years

Gmail and uploading
Well, I only just realized this cool thing a while ago while uploading a file via Gmail. Ain't sure if you'll call it a function or a bonus or something pleasing to the eyes.
Gmail now shows the status of your file being uploaded! It's cool, though I think they should have thought of it sooner. Gone are the days where I'll upload huge files and sit and stone at my desk waiting for it to be completed, not even sure if it's even being uploaded.
Now that they've done it, me thinks Hotmail will soon follow suit. Sorry, I meant Windows Lived. Sorry, Windows Live.

Imagine.
Nothing like a rousing enthralling bollywood dance scene to end off a movie. But this is always the case is it no? A bollywood movie without a dance scene is like a jackie chan movie without fights or a horror movie without blood. So what's the fuss all about?
Some say the dance scenes is anti-climatic to the movie. Or perhaps they aren't used to bollywood movies. I bet, if the film was an English one, made in America, the ending would probably be a marriage ceremony between the two main leads, or the movie would end with a shot of the evil dude *spoiler alert* still being alive despite being shot. 'Cause that's how most American films work. They try to produce sequel after sequel. But bollywood movies are short and sweet. Romance, action and dance.
Perhaps we could produce our own bollywood movie, here in Singapore. All in the name of racial harmony. Why limit to only Indians? I bet no one has seen a crowd of different races dancing together. Well, I haven't. And why not?
Most of our local films feature the local social life or the different social classes or sink into issues that every Singaporean can identity with. But what about the Singapore Dream?
Is there one in the first place? Most would have heard about the American Dream, more popular during the World War Eras, where America was the land of gold. Somewhat.
Imagine a movie with a dance scene. Teenagers to adults to senior citizens, Chinese to Indian to Malay to other races, dancing to the same beat, dancing the same steps, and incorporating different genres. One people, one nation, one national movie.
It's not that hard to imagine.
