The Invictus

Been in Singapore for the last 3 months or so...here on some arbit work....so arbit that work seems to be the only interesting thing around this place...Gawd i hate so much of "ORDERLINESS"..everything is so predictable in this place...and so boring..these days i've started to miss even such things as crossing a busy mumbai street!:-) Back in Mumbai, even crossing a street demands that you be attentive, do some thinking...and of course, there's always that element of uncertainty...just enuff to make it in a way exciting...so unlike this place! Here one knows exactly what is gonna happen the next moment, and the one after that...
This place reminds me of "The Matrix"....yes, we are all caught in the matrix desgned by some super authority that ensures that we walk / talk / travel / eat / a/b/c/...in a certain predictable way....

Strange lands make people behave strangely..so they say..and I agree. Can you imagine i miss seeing those balaji teleserials - the ones that MS Word spell check wud throw out? I miss seeing them on primetime and criticising them (and my family that watches them)...

And what i miss the most is SPACE...wide open space! With all the buildings that Singy has, you can't see beyond 10m before u hit yet another high-rise. Suddenly, Claustrophobia is more than just a "Phobia" word that you learn to score well in GK tests!

So with all these spoilers, why do i suffer this place???
1. Money
2. Work
3. Novelty

4. Im just a NBC - Natural Born Cribber.

Thats why!
