Blasphemy.

As i went to CWP today to collect my handphone, i walked past at least 7 students who were doing flag day, but did not ask me to donate. what a blasphemy. Instead, they were either talking to their friends, or not doing anything at all.

I fondly recall my flag days with my buddy kenneth, back in sec sch. Both of us would team up and form the ultimate flag day combo.

I would start off, with the gracious formal "Sir/Madam, would you like to donate some money to so-and-so organisation/orphanage/etcetc? I'm sure they would appreciate any amount that you would give." Followed by a smile and a "Thank you so much, sir/madam. Have a nice day."

Kenneth would target more of the heartland aunties and uncles. "Auntie ah, you very pretty leh. Want to donate money?" Or "Uncle, want to strike 4D, get some good luck? donate money la."

While it wasn't the most fun activity in the world, we did it, fast and efficiently. We didn't dawdle too long in any area, going to woodlands, semb, admiralty, bishan etc etc.

Children these days =/
