[skinny singaporeans] i was talking to some of my high school friends today, and we were discussing the whole white man, asian woman thing. in singapore, it's a pretty common thing to see european men with local women. my european girlfriend said that she thought it made perfect sense because she thought that asian women are better-looking in general than caucasian women (how many people want to argue with me here?) and they stay skinnier and fitter for longer. haha =) i thought that was the most ridiculous comment! another one of my asian girlfriends then said that she thought it was the whole asian woman submissive factor (and how many people want to argue with me here again?) or the whole mystery of asian women. are we really such a mystery? i think not. so we never really came to a conclusion why white men and asian women seem to get together, but we did deduce that the white man-asian woman situation was a much more common matrimony than a white women-asian man. haha.. the same asian girlfriend exclaimed that maybe it was because white women didn't want short asian men. again, i am bewildered. i really have no stance on this because i think everyone is their own individual (is that too politically correct?), but in singapore specifically, i think that these marriages are just a product of the environment. a lot of european businessmen have lived here for years, and if they find future unions in the most abundant kind of woman here-- the asian kind-- then so be it. it does however, leave the asian men bitter. heh. sorry guys.

but yes. singaporean girls are skinny. grossly so.

[happiness is] .. a surprise phone call from across the seas. simple pleasures, simple pleasures.
