Magicked out 2 more job interviews. I noticed that these two interviews were from jobs I only applied to like a few days ago - which means that the 20+ other jobs I've applied to over the past month have not accepted me.

Also yesterday was election day. My vote is clear as per my last post. Some places were crowded and my friends predicted the PAP would get slammed for calling an election during a pandemic, but I walked into an empty polling booth, so voting took me like 5 minutes and I was at little risk of COVID-19. (It's not luck - it's timing.)

But from the results so far my friends don't seem to be wrong. Personally, I'm a PAP supporter but I'm also chill with WP (I just never voted for them simply because they've never contested my GRC). So I'm fine with the election results. Only SDP/PSP make me nervous: my greatest fear as someone who's lived overseas is everyone in SG gets infected with lofty Western-centric ideals of freedom of speech and transparency, not understanding that Westerners rarely actually practice what they preach. CSJ (who leads the SDP) is like the living epitome of this infection. And I've discussed the PSP in the past: I find they adopt very populist policies and that a good portion of their reasoning is not based in fact. So in my eyes, it's good SDP did not do particularly well this election, although I wasn't happy with the PSP's relative success. At a minimum, neither party gained a seat.
