I hate work
Oh fk, they took away my holiday again.
I have a theory that, students should not spend their holidays working. Heck, they should not be working in the first place. Why? Considering that you'll be working your bloody arse off for the rest of your bloody life, why waste the only time you have to be young trying to be old....and working? But if they are willing to pay you two thousand bucks for a month's worth of wasting your youth away, then that's acceptable. Otherwise, ask your boss to go wipe the shat off the elepant's arse.
I'm being bitter, yes, and that's because i'm being called back to s'pore to indulge in some child labour scheme again. 20 hours a day, 7 days a week, with no pay and only bread and butter for breakfast, we commit ourselves to a megalomaniac of a project, only to win a stupid game. I may sound like i'm lacking the much coveted hall spirit, but come on, any person in their right frame of mind would not, never do what we people do : lose sleep to build a float during your summer holidays. And obviously, i was not in the right frame of mind when i agreed to.
Children, please screw part-time work and go enjoy yourself. Unless if it's absolutely necessary, and by necessary, i mean, if your dad needs the money for his next fix or your mom for her 5th nose job, don't go wasting your precious time being someone else's part-time slave. Go on a holiday, laze around at home, watch tv till your hears buzz or go shopping. Nothing can take away your childhood and youth more than work itself. It's not your time yet to earn that piece of money. Your parents don't need that measly 500 bucks of yours nor is it enough to get you your PSP. And moreover, you'll be doing your dad a favour by giving him the credit of being the breadwinner of the house. You wouldn't want to steal his thunder, would you?
What about the working experience, you might ask? Well....your parents never did have any prior experience of being parents before they actually became parents, did they? And you are still alive, aren't you?

I hate myself
But at times, i feel people hate me more than i do myself.
I hate that people do not see me as me
But as somebody else's somebody
Feeling good about yourself is admirable
But when does it border on delusion and illusion?
