tiramisu... part II...
okie... just finished watching the show tiramisu... i've blogged about this show around a few months back... well in between then and now i've missed some episode and watched the rest... obviously... actually... i dun remember what i wrote in the first tiramisu entry... haha
after watching this episode... i really wonder if what it depicts of singaporeans is true... but then again i would first and foremost state that it is just a tv show... so back to the nonsense that i was going to sprout... do all families in singapore experience extreme differences with their families till they stop talking to them and even stop acknowledging the exsistance of such people in teir lives???
we all know that steve (that's the main character by the way...) hates his mother... steve's pissed because of the way his mother treated his father... today we find out that his mother hates her father (steve's maternal grandfather...)... she hates him for giving her away when she was six... so apparently this family is amazingly divided into 3 warring generations... with only one menber per generation... it is a really wierd out plot twist... the other person that we find out having a strained relationship with the parent is marcus (that's steve's assistant...)... marcus is apparently the heir a hotel chain in singapore... he hates his father because his father has an iron fisted contol over his life...
anyways... is the writers of the show trying to tell us something... something along the lines of singaporean kids are not having an open enough relationship with their parents??? this would make a good sociology paper topic... because... one... someone made it into a tv show... shows the relative hugeness of the problem... two... if it is such a big problem... there will be no problem finding children to interview... and lastly... i'm sure we all have bits and pieces of our lives that would be unfortunately relevant to this problem... we are part of the age group anyways...
i was going to blog about something else... but i can't remember... hahaha...
the weather report today was raining... at least in the afternoon... the best thing about the rain was that it wasn't pouring at a constant rate thoughout an extended period of time... i actually enjoy rainy days...
