The rain had stopped when I woke. I hope it won't rain today and it didn't. Or it would have been even worst for polling day. Yes, today we cast our votes.
当我醒来时雨已经停了。我希望今天不会下雨。确实没有。要不然,去排队投票就不是简单任务了。是的,今天我们投票日。

🎶Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Spring.
🎶让大家继续读的时候,欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首,名为“春天”。

I drove my parents in law and drop them off at their polling station. The queue already came until outside.
我开车送岳父母去投票站。人已经排队到外面。
@ace108


Before I drove away, the queue extended. On different social media, people were complaining the queue was too long. See? Lucky it didn't rain on you guys.
把车开走之前,更多人来排队了。在不同的社交媒体,有人抱怨排队等很久。是不是幸运没有下雨淋你们?
@ace108


My parents in law casted the votes and I drove them home but decided to go back and busybody. Whoa, the queue got worst.
我的岳父母投票后,我开车送他们回家,但决定回去投票站管闲事。哇,队列更加长了。
@ace108


The queue went passed the next building which is the Indian temple.
队列伸展到下一个建筑物。那是印度寺庙。
@ace108


It extended further until the outside of the polyclinic. If anyone fainted, no chance of getting a doctor at the clinic because it's closed today.
列队还延长到诊疗所的外面。如果有人晕倒,别想到诊所找医生,因为今天没开。
@ace108


I guessed if it extended further into the bus stop, some people can take a seat.😎
我猜想,如果再排得远一点到车站,有些人可以在那里坐下。😎

Check out this video I shared in an earlier post.
看看我之前分享过的这段视频。


At the polling station, you were supposed to use the hand sanitizer there and they provided gloves as well as a self-inking pen for marking your voting slip. There were some story about the pen but they said you can bring your own pen. Then things changed. Before my wife and I went to our polling station, they said you don't have to use the gloves. So, all gloves are off for this election. 😎 Our polling station was at the basement 1 of HDB Hub which means you cannot rain on me when I was queuing there.
在投票站,你应该使用洗手液,他们提供的手套,以及一个自供墨水笔标记您的投票单。听说有关那笔的一些故事,但他们说过,你可以自备自己的笔。然后,事情发生了变化。在我和太太去投票站前,他们说你不必使用手套。 😎 我们的投票/站在建屋局中心的地下层,这意味着即使下雨也淋不到在那里排队的本少爷。
@ace108


We are not allowed to take photo there so I quickly cast my vote, use the hand sanitizer and got out.
不允许我们在里面拍照所以我很快当时投我的票,使用洗手液,就走人了。
@ace108


Decided to go to the food court on the same level to get out by the escalator there. This young lady is amused by the tray collecting robot.
决定去食阁通过自动扶梯走出去。这个小妹妹对收托盘的机器人感到好奇。
@ace108


Looking at this long queue of people for the rojak, I shake my hand and thought, "yes, 2nd wave."
看着这么多人排长龙就摇头想真的会第二波。
@ace108


My wife said she had 2 free bubble tea for her birthday month. So, we risk our lives for the bubble tea.
太太说,她有2个免费泡泡茶因为她的生日月份。所以,我们冒险领取泡泡茶。
@ace108


I decided to go for the expensive grapefruit bubble tea.
我决定要昂贵的柚子泡泡茶。
@ace108


This was how much it would have cost.
如果要出钱就是要这么多。
@ace108


I bought a yam bun to have it with the bubble tea with yam (taro) ball. It's just yam, yam and me but no Yam Ah Mee as the returning officer this time. Now, we wait for the results. By the way, more things changed along the way. The voting time had been extended by 2 hours to 10pm. So, don't expect the result so soon.
我买个芋头包子来配我的柚子芋圆泡泡茶。现在,我们等待结果。顺便提一下,大选有更多转变。投票时间已经延长2小时至晚上10时。所以,不要指望这么快宣布结果。

Technically it's not impossible but too many pieces of technology involved and i think people cannot trust all the parts work correctly without being hacked.
