and in other news ..

The president of the USA arrived in Singapore earlier this morning en route to Vietnam for the Apec summit - not like i care but i guess it just shows how staunch an allie of the USA Singapore is. Lets face it they were one of the more vocal supporters of USA in the war against terrorism and the war in iraq - and i wont even go there - trying to keep this entry unpolitical .. anyways, i saw bits and pieces of his visit on the bus via tv mobile - yeah we have little television sets on our buses for the bored commuter ..;)) - see where out tax dollars are going :P .....anyways .. if anyones keen on reading more of Presidents Bush visit can do so here>

The First Lady had her own agenda for the day. She visited the newly built National Library. According to reports she chose to visit the library because she was once a librarian and loves reading - i guess that makes sense. She had a story telling session with some children after which the kids had a chance to ask her questions. One of them asked her if she was popular back home - which coming from a child is so innocent and cute .. i guess her popularity depends on the kind of policies her husband comes up with - but lets not let the children know that - they should just know that she is popular, lives in a big white house with roses bushes ... kids .. ;)) ...

I think this year we saw some major events and visiting head of state in singapore ... Some people may not agree with me but its kinda cool in a weird way to have a prominent figure like the president of the last superpower of the world come visit this tiny island state .... and i may seem like a kid here but its so cool to see Air Force One land in my country - even if its on the news .. it still was on singapore soil .. Anyways i hope they had fun today inspite of the serious stuff .. hehee
