Without an Identity

today was quite blissful if not for sth that had happened at the later part of the day.
I really look down on people whom make known so publicably on how much they dislike their OWN mother tongue language. have you read xx's latest entry? no I don't think that was too strong a word cos in the first place, these people are already discriminating the people in their community. Since they're already pyschologically detached from where they originally should belong to, I don't see the need to consider them as of same status as the rest of the cultured folks.
In fact, I think they don't even deserve to carry a surname because conventionally,the latter is registed in the form of one's mother tongue language. So it is really illogical for one who hates his mother tongue so much, is often being formally addressed as his name + surname ( which is in a language that they feel is useless, HORRIBLE,...inferior to angmoh) . This must have been very hard on them , as all these while they have been associated with their ethnic community whenever people try to identify them by their surnames.
Maybe this will be quite a practical solution to their trouble: go ICA and change your IC!!!
then perhaps it will be more presentable.
Name: stated as your ANGMOH name only. yea also remove your other name in mother tongue, together with the surname
IC number: SYYXXXXX-Z
Country of birth: Singapore
but wait, not angmoh enough cos Singapore is a multi-racial country.
then lagi easier! just need to go to the whatever embassy and apply for their citizenship !
no need to go through all this shit. hm..although the country of birth cannot be changed, but the IC will not be a property of Singapore anymore ! NO MORE PINK CARD!!SO COOL RIGHT?
NO MORE EYESORES!

but are they even eligible to apply for one when their names are incomplete?
too bad lor...they can only stay here and aggravate idiots like me.
