High in the morning
Normally i will get abit moody on monday morning. yes. Especially when i did not my 1st shot of caffeine in the morning. then i looked the crowd around me on the train with their monday-blue colour faces. i told myself that's shouldn't be the way. Smile like you are not going to smile for the rest of your life.
Went to Arcade, Raffles Place to get my Han's coffee. Guess what i saw at 8.30am in the morning. A long queue in front of the lottery box. Uncles, Aunties, Executives... bla bla bla all queueing to buy their favourite numbers. i was like " Huh?" A total different world of people living on the same island.
Read the papers, followed the news. Yes, government going to build 2 casinos. smart move. *clap clap clap* Both targeting at different audiences. The venue at Sentosa which i think is meant for families while the one at Marina South is meant the expats, tourists and of course not forgetting the rich, the richer and the richer than the richer... Saw one lady being interviewed on TV that she don't mind paying $100 for admission fees just to look look see see our casinos. Aunty ah, pay admission fees then play abit lah.
If you worried about hooked on gambling in a negative way, don't worry. We have counselling centres, educational programs designed to help you. Maybe for a fee. See that chain-effect. You pay to get hooked and you most probably pay to get unhooked. So.. gamble with a entertainment attitude.
And thanks to the overwhelmed reporting that hit headlines. i think there should be other interesting news to cover.

Thursday joke
A rabbit was hopping through the forest when he came upon a giraffe rolling a joint.
The rabbit said, "Giraffe, don't do drugs. Come, run with me through the
forest."
The giraffe looked at the rabbit, then at the joint. He dropped the joint and ran off with the rabbit. They came upon an elephant snorting cocaine.
The Rabbit said, "Elephant, don't do drugs. Come, run with us through the
forest."
The elephant looked at his razor blade, mirror and lines. He then tossed them away and began running with the rabbit and giraffe. The three animals then came across a lion about to shoot up.
The Rabbit said, "Lion, don't do drugs. Come, run with us through the
forest."
The lion looked at the rabbit and then at the needle. He put down the needle and started to beat up the rabbit. Horrified, the giraffe and elephant asked, "Lion, why are you doing this? He was trying to help you."
The lion answered, "This little f*cker? He makes me run around the forest like a f*cking idiot every time he's on ecstasy."
