Female magazine came up with this list to commemorate National Day.
1. You order Chilli with everything [Check. I'm a true blue Chilli queen]
2. You'll find somewhere to shop, even if you're in the middle of the desert. [Check. I had a shopping spree when I went to the desert in Qatar some years ago]
3. You queue for hours (even days) for a big sale [Half check. I would queue, but never more than 10 minutes]
4. You'd rather enrol in a slimming centre than work out to lose weight. [Check! Except my hubby violently objects to me walking near any slimming centres and keeps advocating healthy lifestyle instead. Yawn.]
5. You say "lah" a lot.....and you're not even singing [Check. Aiyo..of coz lah!]
6. You have to be the first in line at a buffet [Nah. I love food. but I'm not that Kiasu!]
7. You know that "Want to buy a house together" is boyfriend-speak for "Will you marry me?" [Check. Though I'm glad Colin didn't use that on me]
8. You say something's "not bad" when its actually quite good. [Check. Do you think this stems from our asian culture of being humble?]
9. You let your man carry your handbag [NO WAY! I hate men who carry ladies' handbags. PLEASE!]
10. You "chope" a table at the hawker centre with a packet of tissue paper [err...embarrassed Check. Sometimes my colleagues and I sprinkle the tables with 5 packs of tissue paper at one go! :Þ]
7.5 out of 10 for me! I'm such a true-blue Singaporean! What's your score?
