After reading Lay Kuan's blog, I have a question to ask. How many hours in our entire live, do we spend waiting? People who go to work daily or basically go out, by public transport have to wait for the bus, or train for at least 10mins (added up) everyday. The bus, especially. If there's a traffice jam during the peak hours, or an accident happened, the waiting might go on for half an hour or more. And just how many traffic jams will one be caught in in a lifetime?

We also spend time waiting for people. I spend a lot of time doing that. Haha, i'm not making any personal attacks, i'm just saying what I have experienced. Anyway, Singaporeans are famous for being late. Males and females alike. Pls stop saying that the females are always late. Cos most guys I know can be late for more than 10mins. I'm not going to make any comments about how I cannot imagine how some people are always late for 15mins and above.

We also wait for more than a dozen other things. Christians wait for the Lord's coming. We wait for food to be cooked, esp when we eat outside. We wait for a movie to start, a performance to begin. We wait for bothersome commercials to be over while watching tv prog. We wait for the red man to turn to the green man before crossing the road. The list is neverending. Everyday, we encounter new things to wait for.

Life, is all about waiting..
