INSERT Quicknote: Sharanne got this "Maomao" name as she's born in the year of Tiger and she's a LEO (for star signs) thus I gave her this name Maomao to signify that "combination" of the Felidae family. Perhaps, she might have been a "Liger" instead of a "Tiglon" as I am a 母老虎. HAHA!
But one thing for sure, Maomao sure got a TIGGER character. She's damn hyperactive and my mum says, she takes after me when young. Cannot sit still. -.-" Should I shall this is like a sort of retribution, but a kind one?
Apparently, this post seems to place Maomao in full focus but sadly, my main focus was actually the match at Bukit Jalil Stadium. Yes, it's the match between the Tigers (Malaysia) & the Lions (Singapore) and congratulations to both parties who went in to the next round. No comments but seriously, I almost died of laughter when I saw a tweet by my friend, Zach after the good whole 90 minutes.
Malaysia 1 - 1 China
I got a shock and replied him, "Why China?" I thought it's against Singapore? And his reply is damn epic. "Because the Scorer was Shi Jiayi, from China". Ok, not against anything or supporting any policies. Just want to insert a neutral stand on Foreign Talents. There are always good and bad sheeps around but as long, they do not do the "extremes", it's still fine and this is not saying that I agreed to them sunning their laundries at the playground and etc... What I'm trying to say is, when you go to another country, you need to respect their culture. You can embed into their culture by inserting your own culture but still...
It's not your homeland. Do respect people. Having said that, we shall not condemned foreign talents based on their cultures. We must understand that it might be a norm to them but it might be an eye opener to us. Compromise and communication is the key. And somehow or rather, thanks to them, we are able to go under the world's light. Imagine there's no one like Shi Jiayi, who the hell is gonna score the goal for us?
And this is not saying that Singaporeans are useless. It's just not our forte, definitely not spontaneous enough. We need to buck up and venture more than the norms, the academically-inclined.
Wow, I sounds like a Politician in the making. But anyway...
CONGRATS THE LIONS AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY IN ADVANCE, SINGAPORE!
With loves, Maomao & her whole family.
Note: She's definitely know how to pick her toys, uh?
