Today, I went to sch at 9am...(claps!)

;

GP lesson...I realised i lost it....I no longer can crap out anything as & when I want...sigh...

;

We did an AQ about Singlish...The writer wrote an excellent "speak good english" compo...I obviously wanted to support the use of singlish but i realised i cant put my point across well...I cannot find good enough reasons to rebutt his points...

;

What I wanted to say is simple. Singlish is something uniquely Singapore and we should treasure it. Learning Singlish does not mean our english standards will be lowered. Neither will we lose out to a global market economically. What really matters is whether we are able to judge the appropriate situation to use it. I feel nothing wrong with telling my friend "Where you want to makan?". In fact, i feel that it brings about a sense of closeness etc. I totally agree with Dr catherine lim who said, "I cant bring myself to speak colonial english to my Singaporean friends. I feel so false." Moreover, I do not understand why is the Americian slang globally immitated while Singlish is globally condemmed. Singaporeans, dont you feel proud that you have Singlish? It is a small representation of our cohesive multi-racial and multi-cultural nation! Singlish is something that we have that we can identify ourselves with as a nation.
