Things So Far

I know. It's been the longest time since I last updated my blog. Couple of things have transpired since I last made my post......

1) One of my colleagues whom I enjoy the company of is leaving. It was a shocker since she seemed to enjoy what she did very much (at least mor than I do). She will be leaving us to further her studies. All the best WF. :(

2) I fell quite sick recently. It seemed like all the common ailments were attacking at the same time. Flu, sore throat, stomach problems,...... That was hell man. That has taught me that I can only depend on medicine so much. So I started listening to healing scriptures as well.

3) PAP still won a majority of the votes, though it was 5% less than the previous elections. I was hoping that the Opposition party would gain more ground this time but I was disappointed. But, I must say it seems like the PAP is starting to listen more to the voices of Singaporeans. A fair bit of changes have been seen and some came as surprises. Hopefully, they will change for the better.

Okie, that is not all but that's all the time I have for now. The flu symptoms seem to be sneaking in so I will rest early tonight. God is good......

I Couldn't Help But Laugh. Enjoy!

So Funny

Remember this story. Elections are coming ..................                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                                 
While walking down the street one day a MP is tragically hit by a truck and dies.                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                 
The MP's soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.                                                                          
                                                                                                                                                 
"Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter . "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you    
see, so we're not sure what to do with you."                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                 
"No problem, just let me in," says the MP.                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                 
St. Peter says, "Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you  
can choose where to spend eternity."                                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                 
"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in? heaven," says the MP.                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                 
"I'm sorry, but we have our rules", replies St.Peter.                                                                                              
                                                                                                                                                 
And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a  
green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.  
                                                                                                                                                 
Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich
at the expense of the people.                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                 
They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and champagne.                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                 
Also present is the Devil, who really is a very friendly guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that  
before he realizes it, it is time to go.                                                                                                          
                                                                                                                                                 
Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises...                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                 
The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.                                                    
                                                                                                                                                 
"Now it's time to visit heaven," St Peter s ays.                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                 
So, 24 hours pass with the MP joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time  
and the 24 hours in heaven passes by and St Peter returns.                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                 
"Well, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now which will you choose for your eternity?" St Peter asks.                              
                                                                                                                                                 
The MP reflects for a minute, then he answers, "Well, I never would have thought it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would
be happier and better off .. in hell."                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                                 
So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                 
Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.                                        
                                                                                                                                                 
He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above.                        
                                                                                                                                                 
The Devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulder.                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                 
"I don't understand," stammers the MP. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank      
champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"            
                                                                                                                                                 
The Devil looks at him, smiles and says, "Yesterday we were campaigning..
