fancy cancer

dear jess,

its funny. Some people would trade their lives of reasonable comfort in the village to move to the city, where they stay in apartments the size of a toilet, the neighbours hate you and getting a green card is almost impossible.

Its funny too that some people would trade in their mothers business of being a hawker and make ten times more, just so he can sit his ass down in a swirling chair and in an air cond office.

Some people trade in slave over their low income jobs to buy a car, that sits in the driveway, and gets driven home annually, just so they can show off to their families that they've suceeded in the big city.

A crummy home just so you can be overseas. A 'good looking' job, a 'good looking' everything.

Pride. Its freaking amazing what those 5 words do to us.

well, if you wanna be technical about it, wc is wrong too! "Pride" is in fact made up of 5 letters, not 5 alphabeths. the 26 letters make up the alphabeths. wait... did i spell "alphabeths" correctly???
