Lesson from Desparate Housewives

Last night's episode of Desparate Housewives showed the new neighbours....those 2 guys who put a fountain into their garden. Then the neighbourhood got together to vote for the president, to go and takan the 2 guys to remove the fountain.
Betrayal
Backstabbing
Politicizing
How every household has a 'little secret' to hide....
And how everyone eventually has a political agenda up their sleeves....ultimately it is everyone for themselves!

I suppose that is TRUE for EVERY place that you live in.

My parents do not mix with our neighbours.
Maybe I should learn a lesson or 2 from them.

With that kaypoh auntie on the unit above the swimming pool.....She is the equivalent of auntie A (that takes a lift home from mer's mom every day).....she knows everybody's business and she makes sure nobody knows her business. But a lesson to learn from the majong lady......
1. keep a low profile
2. pretend ignorance
3. don't attend meetings
4. ignor gossips
5. build a thick skin
6. retaliate if need be
7. stay quiet long enough until kaypoh auntie has new things to keep her busy then she will move on to NEW project.

Enjoy....

Then again, if not for neighbours....I wouldn't be able to get the spaghetti straps to hold up my gown...because my hands are not long enough to reach to the back to tie the straps.
So, one or 2 good neighbours is enough....
Then stay out of the aggressive ones.....best to act blur a bit.
