Okay, firstly, isn't Singapore already termed as a Developed Country, not Developing Country? So to be deemed as a Developed Country, doesn't about 85% plus minus of the population have to know how to speak or at least understand how to speak English? In this case, I beg to differ.

The best way to spoil my morning would just be about tipping massive quantities of sugar into my cup of drink. Yes, indeed, that happened. I was all alert and satisfied with my dose of chicken rice this morning, when I decided to get a drink. That irked the hell out of me. Walking up to the stall, I told the person behind the counter,"A cup of Grape italian soda please, with less sugar." She nods in consent, and proceeds to make the soda. When she gets everything ready, she starts pouring the grape flavoured liquid into the inverted cone measuring cup. Once again I reminded her that I wanted less sugar. She gave me a smile, and dumped the entire massive mound of purple liquid into the blender! And I was like @#$%&*@$*&#@*#&&$#*&@$#!

Ok, then I thought, maybe she knew what she was doing. So I took the soda. The first mouthful I took, I almost regurgitated. The horrid sugary sweet liquid whorled around my mouth like cyanide. I went home, diluted it with an equal portion of water and it was still sweet. Imagine, if that is reduced sugar, what would the normal amount of sugar make the drink taste like? Pure 100% sugar? Yuck. Also imagine what such horrendous amounts of sugar would do to your poor Pancreas and Islets of Langerhans..! Realising that, I dumped the entire cup of liquid into the sink. I'd rather waste a meagre $1.50 than kill my pancreas.

Listen people, won't ya just?
