When is my gf arriving!?
... in the Singapore City bus,
to see Collyer Quay and Raffles Place
the durian head
and all of us. (why in the world do people want to see us?)
I was watching Jay Leno interview young American adults on the streets about their education. Most of them said they were good students. However, it was truly funny and sad at the same time the things they couldnt answer.
"When did Christopher Columbus discover America?"
"19 .. er.. "
Same person -- "What did Isaac Newton discover?"
"er.. was it the bomb?"
Other great American answers -- "What book did you do in school?"
"Of Mice and Men"
"Did you read it?"
"Yes."
"Do you know who wrote it?"
"Er.. No."
"What is it about?"
"Mice."

your missus is coming...... soon.
Columbus did not discover America; King Tut did, according to the Chinese. Newton wrote 'Of mice and men'. Steinbeck discovered the bomb. Right? Wrong? Who says the asian student is passive, dumbly compliant, rote learner? Did anyone say the american student is bad? All can be creative and humorous and never humourless. (And English spelling is the best nightmare!)
haha good point asian student. If one of the American students answered all the questions wrongly on purpose i think it would have been right funny. Too bad it was only Jay Leno cracking all the jokes.
