CURRENT MISSION

Introduce Singlish to the world

ABOUT ME

My mission is to introduce Singlish to the whole world.

Singlish is an English-based creole language native to Singapore. It is the first language of many younger Singaporeans, especially those whose parents do not share a native language or dialect, and is the second language of nearly all the rest of the country's residents. (Kop from Wikipedia one)

I can tell you about Singapore beyond what's written on Lonely Planet(nono...this is just an exaggeration...), beyond what you see, and beyond what you hear.

I can even tell you what's in the mind of our politicians. (Oops, just joking. Taboo topic. Sensitive)

English is my first language BUT mine is generally worse off than most undergraduate (is it did or do? is or are?)I keep failing my spelling test when I'm in elementary school and I remember how elated I was on that day (totally regretting now) My project mates have to edit my grammar but they love the content....I think.

PHILOSOPHY

Who said you shouldn't be traveling if you don't have money?

I come from a humble background but still, able to travel. I don't see why people can't travel with little cash. Seriously. Come to Singapore and I'd show you show affordable things can be.

And whoever doesn't understand the need for camera during traveling, I say, perhaps you've got power memory. Pictures are meant to be shared, be remembered. 10 years down the road, I'd only remember the pictures, not the experience.

Experience are meant to be forgotten, those that you remember, are illusions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

-Reply CS-ers with one whole list of Singapore's attraction. They love it.

-Culture exchange with friends all over the world. I like to hear what's it like in your country and love to tell you more about Singapore

-Get to know people from all over

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Singapore has got several enthusiastic CS surfers! I think the market here is supply more than demand. No CS surfers should fail to find a place to stay in Singapore.

Anyone who is interested in Singapore FOOD, do contact me! I'd show you what we have - durians, laska, chilli crab! Yummy!

Yup, and SINGLISH! When you first arrive, you'd be like "What language are they using? We're atcually speaking in Singlish - UK English with local flavor. We tend to speak very fast, with lots of Malay and Chinese dialet.

Music, Movies, and Books

The last book I read when I was an infant.

Movies? What that?

Ya music of course! One of our fav. past time is to sing (we call KTV). I think it's an Asian thing, you get lots of KTV on Taiwan, Hong Kong and China.
