Long long time ago, when I was still a little boy (not that I'm very old now...), I have a goal to achieve when I grow up. And that was to migrate myself, and my entire family to Australia, own a plot of land, build a house and have some farm land, grow some flowers, rear some animals, ride on the horses, go driving into the mountains, and just lay down and absorb's life greatness.
However, when I started growing older (note that I'm still young...) I realised that I think its not so ideal afterall. I mean, I love my country! I seriously do. I love Singapore, but I don't like Singaporeans. I don't think I want to give up my beautiful country to go to another place. What about my family? Will they want that? Are my children going to accept that? Do I have the money? Will I really like that place? So many factors to consider.
I think Singapore is a nice place to live in. I don't mind probably investing in a land there, and then maybe staying there for long periods of time when I retire. But I probably will retain my citizenship. I'm so darn patriotic. Hahaha. I feel proud and happy whenever I see Caucasians (ang mohs...) in Singapore and enjoying themselves, or even being citizens, or just long staying visitors. I feel like, my country is worth something for them to come here and stay. Of course, that being said, its because most of us think that the Western countries are superior than the Asians. And such, I have to admit I'm also feeling that way.
All in all, I am proud being where I am.
