It's a pity the Kris-Joey thing ended so soon. I could've endured that longer than the Chinovela craze. Yesterday, when the story broke out, everyone was talking about why Kris conceded so easily. It seems everyone has an opinion as to why. Personally, I would've have preferred taking the man to court. Dura Lex, Sed Lex. Let the man suffer for his arrogant ways.

Anyway, tonight's shuttle ride home was unbearably hair-raising. Nobody was talking about Kris and Joey. Unfortunately,they were back to Chinovelas. Some of the people in the jeep were evern practicing Mandarin (of all things!) phrases. At the end of the ride, they said their goodbyes in Mandarin. What has come to this country that we have been relegated to being Chinese wannabe's. If you wanna learn the language, learn it so you can use it to communicate. Learn it so you could enrich yourself. Don't try to learn it to be "in". It makes you look more idiotic, considering you already are stupid (redundancy intended).
