today i didn't go to office.. aka didn't work.

nope.. i'm not on leave..

neither am i on mc..


i went for a madantory workplace safety awareness course conducted by ntuc learning hub @ tanjong pagar.. just besides the mrt..

when i'm in the class, i feel like i'm like the minority: over 70% are from india, another 10% from thailand, 15% from malaysia, the balance from singapore... looking around the class, i dunno why but i just can't help but to feel that sense of "superiority" being a citizen of a "first world country", being an engineer as compared to them where most of them are general workers..

i know its not right to feel and think that way, but you know its just that tiny bit of feeling that just comes so naturally without me even realising that i'm thinking that way.. i really feel like slapping myself hard on the face, to wake up my fucking idea that i'm more "superior" that these nationalities... coz they don't have a choice to be born there, same as me that i don't have a choice but to born here.. we all just wonder why are we not born in a better country, or in a more wealthy and powerful family so that we can feel "superior" and have others naturally believing that we are "superior"..

we just have no choice... its our life that we have no control of..
