Bimbos and Society.

I like bimbos.

I mean, I think they're quite cute lah, and unlike the majority of my friends who look upon bimbos as merely "stupid women", I find them highly entertaining, plus I don't think they're really stupid.

Let's look at a dictionary definition.
===

bimbo

One entry found for bimbo.

For the sake of folks with limited vocabulary who don't know what the word "vacuous" means (like limpeh), here's a definition for that word too.

vacuous

One entry found for vacuous.

===

Okay, now that we've done away with the hay-dry definitions, let's look at the society we live in and find out what kinds of people we label as bimbos.

In NUS, of course, without question, the example of choice would be... *drum rolls...*

ARTS CHAR BORS!

Okay shit, I think I will get clobbered to death by heels if this gets out, but look, I'm admitting this IS stereotyping and, I know I have intelligent artsy fartsy friends, so if you're reading this, and you're from arts, I'm not referring to you! ;)

*Wipes sweat off brows*

Anyway, like I said, I like bimbos!

No lah, actually, I just dislike girls who think they're smart. Even if they ARE smart. Damn turn-off. Maybe I'm a MCP.

Probably that's why I'm 105% sure that if I were a girl, I would be labelled as a bimbo too. Okay damn, let's drop the "if I were a girl" notion, I think already want to puke.

Maybe I just prefer a solitary life, where you no need to prove anything to anyone, and you don't give a flying banana what opinion others have of you.

Alas, this is not the case and the older you get, the more the world becomes a wayang world. Stupid must act smart. Smart must act sibeh smart. Sibeh smart must act stupid.

Sometimes I kind of miss the olden days of school. Where everybody is so not competitive and willing to help each other. I will never forget last time everytime we supposed to write composition my table will become like nasi lemak store lydat, everyone will come and queue to ask me how to write, hahaha!

And that was a period of time during which you could get free frag average results, and people really helped people out if there were academic issues.

NUS is quite disgusting in the sense that it's really damn competitive and everyone wants to kill everyone. And I'm competing with people who are probably smarter, more dilligent, and more results-oriented than I am.

Not only am I stupid, I am also un-motivated and have the very unfortunate belief that results don't mean anything. I KNOW results are the number one priority in school, but whenever I think of the fact that I'm probably not gonna be an engineer in future anyway, it just seems harder to work hard.

I KNOW that's an incorrect mindset but it's just easier said than done to change it.

So I find it very amusing that the smart aleck huat actually thinks that I am hao lian to be in NUS. If uni were not such a predominant path of progress for the normal Singaporean, I would definitely have chosen another.

Holy cows and bananas, I was talking about bimbos wasn't I?!

Now I don't even remember what I want to say.

Oh ya, that time in the library there was this very obviously artsy girl who picked up the phone in the library. The conversation was something along the lines of...

Hello?
Ya... YA!!!!
Ya... Yayayaya!!
Ya how you know!
Hee hee hee!
Ya, now I'm very tall!
Dunno leh, I think quite tall.
Errr.... 168 ah.
(Me stifles laughter)
Ya!
Omg you're taller than meeeeee!!
Omg!!!!

Erm ya lah, alot of bimboism in the conversation, but I found it quite funny wad.

On hindsight, I think that my "projects" idea is quite bimbotic. Maybe there needs to be a new term for this. Cos I'm not a bimbo. Maybe bambo? Eh, like bamboo!

Bamboo it shall be then. If you hear this term used this way from elsewhere, know that it was first coined by the great kangster.

And I digress.(Again)

There is this breed of human beings who don't seem to be bothered by the fact that people think they are better than them. For example, let's say I'm bad at directions. (Which I am)

If I were the standard super garang egoistic alpha male, I would be damn upset by that fact and spend time analysing street directories to prove to the mortal world that, oi, I can go to Orchard from Pasir Ris, blindfolded!

But no, I am a bamboo, and I would say "hannorh hannorh, my sense of direction damn bad leh".

Now let's analyse this from an objective point of view. The bamboo is not trying to say that he is humble. Rather, he is putting forward another question. Is it really so difficult to be good at directions? If the average uni kid is able to understand complex equations and scientific theories and postulates, surely directions are easy to master?

If directions were a 3MC course, you can be assured that the average bamboo would score as well, if not even better than the macho power baby guy who just made it from Pasir Ris to Orchard. Blind-folded.

So I think bimbos are really not as unintelligent as they seem to be. They just don't see the need to prove themselves to others. Of course, there are also exceptions, and there are some breeds of screaming specimen that are truly airheads filled to the brim with air and nothing else.

Note that in our careful analysis, we have happily left out the "chio" factor in the "chio but stupid" layman definition of the word "bimbo".

This brings us to a very critical juncture.

Being "chio" is a very very important criteria to being a well-liked bimbo, as in any other role in society.

This brings me to my bamboo ultimatum.

Char bor attitude problem but chio, got character.
Char bor attitude problem and ugly, *censored*

Sibeh jialat.. Here I am, utterly destroying my plans for Project SleepALot, blabbering on and on and on about bimbos.

What a bamboo.
