The Big Apple
I don't have any photographs on this laptop yet, so I won't photo-log yet. BUUt, I have so much to say.
Firstly, Dear Steph:
I have searched high and low to find your tutti-dolci perfumes. I have got both Creme Brulee and Sugar Wafer, just in case. I can't seem to find your chrome yellow stuff yet.
Secondly, to all my dear friends:
how the bloody f&*% can you like, wait... not hate New York??!! I hate this God-forsaken floating island of non-biodegradable garbage! Certainly, I must admit that the buildings are beautiful and the urban landscape are somewhat cohesive and orderly... But the people ruin it all!!! What the HELL is wrong with Yankees? Can't live without a tip? Here's a tip: pennnies and nickels aren't everything!
Pardon me for my blaring, but GOD! Seriously... I have been through debates pertaining to the arguement that Singapore should not be considered as a developed country due to its lack of decency and culture. If that is so, New York should be relocated to the jungle of Irian Jaya on the border of Paupa New Guinea. The people here never heard of opening doors to people, saying a decent 'good morning' without expecting a tip and thus gives you the look of cosmic confusion and apocalypse when you hold the lift for them. What? You think I would rape you in front of the my parents? The Big Apple, where the worm never sleeps.
Another pointer. A close definition of Amercian Air service would be that of CRAP. My dearest Singaporean friends, if you think Jetstar Asia was bad, think again. Americans have the carnal desires to make Asian services look good.
'Any rubbish?' [flight attendant on her rounds of collecting cups]
'Wait... hold on a sec. (smile) [me, finishing my drink in a hurried pace]
She ignores me and proceeds. To which I asked her again to stall so that I place MY cup in HER bag, effectively doing HER job.
'EXCUSE ME? Don't you know its hard to retrack here?'
okay, my grammer sucks. My grammer suck. But its 'back-track' not 'retrack' and .... WHAT THE %UC#*&G HELL?? Hello miss? Would you prefer it if they replaced your bag with one of those green rubbish bins with wheels? So that you may 'retrack' better? ANOTHER pointer, when people are having lunch, chances are that they just MIGHT be thirsty. So skipping across passengers ( assuming that no shouting = no thirst) is not a very smart thing to do. ANOTHER pointer. When people are reading and/or sleeping from a tiring jet-lag, flight attendents are not supposed to talk loudly about their social circles NEXT the them. For love of thalwegs, I could hear how 'Christen cleared her mortgage' right through my phones.
Could you imagine 6+12 hours of this?
The city is rotten with filth from the people and it can even be felt halfway across the hemisphere.
On a better note, New York is really a photographer's paradise. I really got down to using the DSLR, walking through Broadway, Chinatown and even Ground Zero. It is nice and I cannot wait to see how the photos are coming out. There is also an extremely-frickin weird ( and I do mean paranormally weird) experience my dad had in the hotel, but I shall not discuss that here.. in the hotel. But it is hell scary, my sis and I are feeling it too. Thank God we changed rooms.
I wonder how is Council AGM going now... who would be in ex-co this year?
