been refreshing yahoo's election page since the afternoon.
close call, with ohio tied in deadlock and technical errors in new mexico and iowa.
but bush is leading by TWO electorate votes. and these three states are pro-bush. slightly.
mm interesting election here. at least much more interesting than singapore's elections. where PAP wins all the time. boring. urgh.


sometimes i wonder how other people can survive without reading newspapers, watching the news. dont they care what happens around the world, or even local singapore? do they know the recent murder of 9 year old chinese girl Huang Na? do they know that the US presidential elections started officially last night? or do they not give a damn cos it doesnt affect their lives.
oh well. i can tell you for sure the new US president will affect us indirectly even when we dont realise it. passing of new laws by the world's superpower nation's leader. would that not affect the global economy, situation and in return, us? how minimal the effect may be, but nonetheless, its not something we can neglect just like that.
no wonder singapore government thinks that youngsters nowadays are passive and self centered. they dont give a damn about what happens outside their world. correct me if im right please. i have plenty of friends and acquaintances who dont read the papers, nor watch the news. well, the newspaper is my staple every morning, and i cant step out of the house without at least flipping through the papers and glancing through the headlines. i just dont understand these people sometimes. their world consist of they themselves and no one else. how interesting can that be? arent you concerned about happenings in singapore, people around us? not at all?
unbelievable.
mm. im just ranting here.
thinking out loud.
why people dont read newspapers nor watch the news.
