+ My life in song part 1. +
you know how some phases in your life are instantly remembered because they are so accurately summed up in a certain song? yup, here i'll attempt to put my whole life in a musical nutshell age 1-6: grew up in an English-educated Christian family. So much so that both my grandfathers spoke to me in English. Paternal grand-daddy was an Anglophile. Maternal grand-daddy was a player. Parents scolded me for picking up Singlish in primary 1. So i learnt to alternate between Singlish in school and Queen's English at home. No brain capacity left for Chinese. So apparently... I grew up in weird circumstances? Grew up thinking that Chinese speakers were weird. Now i know they are the actually the majority of Singaporean society.... But i still think they're weird. heh. So i'm weird? I've only recently reconciled with myself that normalcy is overrated. song: "Boy in a Rock and Roll Band" - The Pierces
