If my sister is around, generally the conversation revolves around what her kids are doing. A lot of the time, it comes off as bragging (to me), which is fine if it's just around family, but I often wonder how other people take what she says. Now, if there are pets around, they become the focus of our conversation. God forbid we should have any deep & meaningful conversations...lol. As far as the general population over here, small talk about the local sports team is a biggie, but the weather is up there too :) Well, MrsL, it depends who I’m with.

I don't think I would be able to survive in a place like that because I'd rather be hot than cold! :P In Singapore, the hot subject now is "ELECTION". We will be going to the polls very soon, however, it's a bit of a joke also, because Singapore has been under one party rule for 40 years now; there is no effective opposition at all. :( (So voting is quite pointless.)

I think I stick to the weather talk, I don't like to complain. Or maybe photographing people instead, then I got to say: "Cheese" - and surely they MUST smile for the camera???? I'm smart... *lol* Oh my Sisiggy, that wasn’t better subject that either… I think I stick to the weather talk, I don’t like to complain.

That's all I hear. I feel like shipping everyone off to Sudan and saying, "<i>Now</i> you have something to complain about." (I guess that's better than, "You want a little cheese with that whine?")
