A Nation Celebrates. Miss Loi Bemoans Her Fate!

(18)
Posted at 2:52 pm by Miss Loi in Miss Loi the Tutor

As if we haven’t been reminded enough, again and again, today is the day a nation celebrates its 42nd Birthday.

Being the first long weekend since May, today is also the day where patriotic Singaporeans leave the country in droves to spread the word of this joyous occasion overseas.

Being so close to the prelims, today is also the day where private tutors like Miss Loi rush around the country to give extra/make-up lessons, always having to make sure she doesn’t get caught in the annual NDP trafffic jam.

BUT never, ever would she have imagined that today is the day where she gets a NDP ticket!

Miss Loi's NDP Ticket

Thank you Sergeant Ang, for giving Miss Loi a NDP ticket, even though she didn’t apply for one. Where’s your holiday spirit, if it exists at all?

Happy National Day Everyone. Tsk.

がんばって!!!

    The law does not have holidays. And the policeman is working on a holiday.

    Yes reader, my bad.

    How naive of Miss Loi to forget that the law and her honorable agents never rest in this country!

    Hamster, Miss Loi is a Maths tutor not a driving instructor.

    You mean you're dead sure all of your teachers have never committed a single parking offence? Or for that matter, torn their coupons 10 mins late?

    Cris, Miss Loi's birthday has long passed. But what a way to coerce a birthday present from a humble citizen!

    Nothing to make you feel more like a Singapore than a parking ticket.

    Your coverage of your cure concert made me weep because I didn't make it there.

    Carrie, that's assuming the subject is Singaporean in the first place :)

    And yes, another cure fan has found the way here! Yay!

    haha just spent some time looking at your site. It is hilarious. Even though its more than a decade ago, I wish that I had a tutor like you then I wouldn't have been so hopeless at A maths.

    Welcome to Jφss Sticks WaterLearner!

    Since NDP tickets seem to be a coveted item these days, can sell to you at 'cost price' of only $120 + 3 demerit points.

    Interested? ;)

    Encik,

    If that's the case, do you know of any minister looking for maths tutor for his/her kids? Miss Loi wants to 'earn back' from them. Haha.

    No wonder Miss Loi got the feeling of being mocked each time one of those lit up the sky that night =_=
