The bus ride to school today was a lot more interesting than usual. Was eavesdropping on an angmoh family probably visiting the daughter who's been living here for a short while. Still touristy but she was so knowledgeable about the country, from the NEWater to the MRT to the GST to the COE and all the other acronyms of Singapore. Her mother only noticed the trees, marveling non stop at how many trees there were everywhere. It was a nice change, seeing things that you rarely pay attention to through their eyes.

I don't get all the slamming on covers (like Glee songs). I think it's a pretty neat way to draw interest to old classics that wouldn't have been discovered by newer generations. Long live the oldies!
