an unexpected present...

came in the form of a text message. :)

In fact...

...I had never really moved on.

beware of aware

this piece of news has been vigorously reported in the papers recently and i thought it was worth giving it some thought..

basically, a well-known local civic society for women had their AGM recently and all of a sudden, the top positions were swept away by a bunch of xin jiao members, all of whom only joined the society very recently. The lao jiaos, however, were all stunned and some walked out.

Interestingly, however, is the coincidental (or maybe not so) religious origins of the newly elected members. Most of them attend the same church, whom theological beliefs and philosophies are somewhat rather conservative, to some extent, even fundamentalist.

The civic society, in the first place, shud be a secular, non-partisan group that is supposed to bring good to the community. If it is run by a group of christian fundamentalist, will the organisation's purposeful vision be skewed or worst, be blinded by their fundamentalist views?

Do they have any hidden agenda up their sleeves?

Shrugs. Dont really sound good to me. Seems like they just want to permeate into every aspect of our society. Firstly, public spaces. Now, civic groups.

What is so different from them and the radicals from some extreme groups who wants the whole world "islamified"?

A bit far fetched, but ya, food for thought!

here's more stuffs to read!

Million years update

sch is crazy.

blogging becomes such a chore cuz every single module wants us to freaking blog.

simply saps the enjoyment of blogging away.

anyway, here are 2 video clips which i find it extremely powerful and effective in sending across a very, very simple, yet sensitive message.






embrace multi-racism, embrace multi-ethnicity and embrace all faith..

i think friends who know me well will laugh at me for wat i said above.. oh well, no matter what, the execution and the art direction of the 2 ads are simply spot on to the issue they are touching on.. seriously inspiring! my current favs!

till the next time!
till the next time!

self-snooked.

Here are two articles I came across recently,

Article 1 is from ROY-Ters. Neednt explain more abt this wire agency la..

Article 2 is taken from a website based in SG, talking mainly about the dysfunctional side of this slowly rotting place in which we call home.

After reading the 2 articles, i feel we all should go malayia and learn how to make ramlee burgers, goreng pisang and bbq ayam so tat we all can go set up stalls along pasar malams and fun fairs.

These articles also somewhat reaffirms my belief that I will try my best to steer away from becoming a see-vil servant, because the money that i'm gonna spend will cause me not to have good nights' sleep.

what a joke for a top see-vil servant to openly declare such extravagant spending. i really wonder how often such spendings take place across our highly paid leaders.

oh well, THIS IS SIIINGGAAPPORRE!!!!

Resolutions, resolutions, resolutions...

Its been a darn looong time since i last updated this boring blog of mine..

well, since its the last day of the year, i guess an update would be rather apt to round up this year..

semester's long over. din do too well, at least not up to expectation.

learnt that its not really wise to choose modules of your interest in this condemned place as there are a lot of ppl out there who does nothing but digest books for a living. no way to outshine them in their papers and essays.. ok la.. i'm not zai enough too.. =(

oh well, at least its a lesson learnt.

a new year is here and whats a new year without resolutions?

here are a few simple ones of mine!

1. To get better grades - by first choosing the right modules and studying more effectively and more productively.

2. To train hard - I want to bring back that piece of metal which is currently lying in some ulu office located somewhere in boon lay.

3. To train harder - I want to keep that piece of metal away from boon lay, for as long as possible.

k la.. should be all for now..

happy new year!

Modern World history and Singapore.

Really educational..

a must watch!
