=[L]ing 的无聊日记=

I was flipping through the latest issue of "Spring" (a sort of newsletter for residents), and came across this page, where 4 children (aged 8, 6, 3+ and 3 years old) are asked several questions to see how much do they really know about Singapore.
I am especially amused by the answers given by the 3+ and 3years old children.
