OHH MY GOD!!

I scored a B3 for my GCE O Level 2009, English Language.

No words can describe how thrilled I am. It has always and I mean ALWAYS been a dream of mine to do well for English

Now, my L1R4 stands at 13 points.

Another reason why I am so thrilled and beyond disbelief is that, I actually studied a week before the actual exam. Trust me, I barely put any effort into it because it coincide with my assignment deadline for my current diploma.

I’m really beyond disbelief because how did I even manage to score a B3? I mean, how did my English improved! Pity that I absent myself for the Mathematics paper.

I wish I can celebrate but assignment deadlines are coming.

PS. I am SERIOUSLY on cloud nine.

I really wanna be a eurasian

I wish nosejob was allowed.

LOL!

What a pile of lies.

Have you ever read Janice Dickinson’s Book? The first so-called SuperModel.

“Everything About Me Is Fake . . . And I’m Perfect”

I’m not saying that my English is down right spectacular. Some things really annoy the heck out of me.

One example will be Singlish.

Honestly, WHAT THE FUCK is Singlish? Singaporean’s version of english.

ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING WITH ME?

Are we dimwitted to the extent that we have to create a new so called unofficial language to suit our needs? Sure, some people might say, Singlish is something unique and something that sets Singaporeans apart from other english speakers.

I find it a disgrace because we’re just disgracing ourselves. Doesn’t it show how incompetent we are and how incapable we are of learning the proper English and using it.

I’ll admit that at times i do use Singlish because I’m lazy to actually say stuff in proper sentence with the subject and verb agreement thing.

An excerpt taken from Wikipedia regarding Singlish.

The Singaporean government currently discourages the use of Singlish in favour of Singapore Standard English as it believes in the need for Singaporeans to be able to effectively communicate with the other English users in the world. The government runs the Speak Good English Movement to emphasize the point.

Even the government discourages it and is trying to do some damage control by setting up this Speak Good English Movement.

No, foreigners do no view Singlish as something unique churned out with creativity. Look what BBC said, but firstly some background information.

Excerpt from Wikipedia

The British Broadcasting Corporation, which is usually known more simply as the BBC, is the world’s largest broadcasting corporation.

Excerpt from BBC Site

Despairing at what it sees as Singaporeans’ falling standards in English, the government of the high-tech city-state has launched a national campaign to eradicate Singlish – Singapore’s own unique take on the English language.

But now the Singaporean government says Singlish has become so widespread that it is in danger of undermining the country’s competitiveness in the world economy.

Announcing the clampdown Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong said English was the essential language of commerce, science and technology, while Singlish was incomprehensible to outsiders.

They use the word ‘falling’. Honestly what do you think they are trying depict? In my opinion, the word falling doesn’t seem so nice. Are they encouraging Singlish? Are they awed by the creation of Singlish?

“Incomprehensible to outsiders.” Indeed very true.

For an instance,

As you know Singaporeans became psychopathic over MapleStory. Since it made its debut you could hear the nonstop bickering of MapleStory here there and everywhere!

Debut means a person’s first appearance or performance in a particular capacity or role. And apparently i use it wrongly to describe it on MapleStory, I know and I don’t care because i like that word. Okay this is becoming a rather contradicting post because I’m annoyed at people who aren’t using proper English and I’m not using it myself.

Anyways, the private server pop out and everyone came to flood it. Guess who are the main players? Singaporeans. In the entire server, you’ll see players spamming Super Mega that contain Lah, Leh, Loh, Luh and Lih. I might be a tad exaggerating. The admins of that MapleStory private server were cursing that Singaporeans are incapable of using proper English, they are from Australia.

I shall not name anyone because my real intention of this post was just to vent out my thoughts and annoyance and not personally attacking anyone. MSN also known as Apple Windows Live Messenger, an instant messaging platform. At times when I chat with my fellow friends, I can’t understand them. No kidding.

So let’s pull up our socks and use proper English!

If you’re stubborn and still read the post even though i warned you at the top, please don’t get offended because my main intention of writing this isn’t to offend you, it’s to be aware of it and to vent out my annoyance.

Before i end, though you can’t take my account to credibility because i use one article to judge the entire foreigner’s population opinion on Singlish.

Wow! No shit! This entire post contains 695 words!

I need another five more!
