Oh wow, I haven't been blogging for ages... someone bestow me the power and inspiration to continue!!!

My German class is filled with all sorts of funny people. One poseur woman in her mid 20s, an air-stewardess, said she learned German because her husband was German, and she wanted to speak German with her mother-in-law. That was a targeted SPG (sarong-party-girl) for sure. She sashays languruously around the class as if she was balancing on high stiletto heels, down the aisle in the airplane. I happened to be stifling in the same lift with her today. My friend and I agreed that she was a poseur of sophistication - her pair of shoes bear testimony to our words. It just seemed strange that she tried to act so un-chinese and so un-singaporean, yet she wanted to be 'filial' to her mother-in-law.

Never judge a book by its cover! Some people look so unbefitting of their profession! There was a chemist, a lawyer and a doctor, who don't look like they were one at all. The chemist had a very interesting job, oh wow I'm paying lots of attention to it. She works as a 'aroma-chemist' just to put it simple, and conjuring up any smell is just a matter of mixing, heating, stirring etc.

I feel compelled to talk about SPGs. They complain about Singaporean men being insensitive, ungentlemenly, unwitty, cheapskate, kiasu etc. while the White men are so charismatic, so humurous, so gentlemanly... I can't believe I'm saying all this but it's true. These SPGs prey on White men by hanging out at local pub scenes, in high hopes of hooking up onto one, and in no time you see her hand in hand with a White, and a Prada Bag. There is another type of women who are "Western educated Asians", especially those who have studied in Britain, tend to gravitate towards more to Western men than local ones.

What does Miss Air-Stewardess think? That her frequent flights to Europe have caused her to be more geninely Western? Well, one day I shall ask her. Does she think that she cannot find someone of the same 'intellecutal' connection with a poor bloke who grew up in HDB heartlands? That is an irony of course, since it's highly likely that she herself grew up in an HDB flat.

Now what does she think of her white man? The rich bloke who lives in his imaginary castle? For once, tell Miss Air-Stewardess that white does not equate RICH. Londoners live in 3-room apartments too, which is equivalent to a 3-room HDB flat.

My dad once told me this 20 odd banker who went to Australia for a 3-month attachment and returned with a "YEAH MAN!" yankee phony accent. It was so fortunate again when I happened to be taking lunch with my parents at Sakae, where my dad spotted her. Just as I had expected, Miss Phony Accent looked and behaved pretty much like Miss Air-Stewardess. Her husband was thankfully(?) not white, but looked rather ABC.

SPGs seaching for white men or rather white men searching for asians? This reminds me of our own local lau-ah-peks crossing our baywaters boundaries to the exotic land of Batam in search of cheap indigenous females.

Is there a new bred of men who complain of Singaporean Women? I think the 2 sexes are bitching about each other nowadays. Just as thought, the government's propagada isn't working, but just as well, who wants to attend SDU? - Sexually Deprived Unit.

Smirks.
