Not a very nice meJust read a friend's blog (I assume you don't mind me counting you as my friend.. Otherwise you can either leave a message here, or type it in your next entry =p) Although I amended a certain portion of my blog before reading hers, I still could not help but feel guilty. Hey gal, I really don't mind you reading my blog, in fact, I love reading yours too (other than... you know, your blog with all the food makes me HUNGRY!) Just that, I tend to shoot my mouth (ermz.. something to that extent) without much thought, which makes me highly likely to incur the wrath of others or even.. sued for defamation (read my really really old entries and you'll understand) But I trust that you'll not tell on me, and so, do continue reading! And pointing out my flaws too!
To the rest of my friends who see this, hey, you are welcome to leave comments, scold me and point out when I should watch my words, k? I know my own character, and I know that I don't make a good friend and can be an awful brat, so go ahead and lecture, for otherwise it'll be a case of spare the rod and spoil the child (Ehz.. I AM younger than almost every one of my reader, so I AM qualified to be a child, k?)

Sometimes, I think the weather doesn't really like me either. Was supposed to go cycling with Nelson and Vicknesh but it rained for the entire day without any break! The rain is still going strong and it doesn't seem to want to stop any time soon either. My dear rain, since you've been so nice as to go on and on for the whole day, would you mind not ceasing till tonight? The Ren Ci Charity Show will be on tonight, and with the neverending rain, I think the Republic Plaza and surrounding areas will be superbly slippery. If you stop now and the place looks more or less less slippery, the CEO of Ren Ci may still go ahead with his stunt, made even more dangerous with an entire day of rain. So please don't stop, so that you can thwart the scary stunt.
Gosh.. that seems like another manifestation of the not-nice me. But I really do not enjoy watching a human circus and having to worry for the stunt artiste. I wonder how the donations will be today. Will it reach the target as set? I really do hope so, for it feels like the closest link to what was the previously MediaWorks-owned Channel U. Time really flies huh? It's already been one plus year since I've become utterly disappointed at the lack of 人情 in this society. But there's nothing I can do about it right?
(I though I've just heard the news.. that the scary stunt will still be carried out.. ARE YOU KIDDING??)
Humans supposedly differ from beast because humans supposedly have emotions. But do emotions really make human better? The naive me once really believed so. But then, if you really do think about it, there are also many others who succeed even more simply because they are able to look at each matter matter-of-factly and not let emotions get in their way. That being the case, perhaps emotions are just excess baggage. People may say that only when you are able to feel can you feel happy. Yet at the same time, it's only because one can feel that makes one susceptible to sadness, and to a more extreme form, depression too.
No, the above paragraph has nothing to do with my day today. In fact, my sudden bout of sadness lasted not too long today, a marked improvement I must say. Perhaps typing truthfully really makes things feel a lot better. There were some things that I would more or less do, but cannot verbalise it as yet because the consequences may be dire if these thoughts were leaked before the actual actions itself. Being able to mention it in passing without incurring any negative comments really felt good later on. Thank you, my usual MSN listener =) I'm beginning to whine a bit too much that I truly deserve a tight slap huh? =)
A thought suddenly came over me today.. Perhaps one reason why I was a happier person in JC could be because I was slightly more involved in community service. Perhaps now that I do not have the stress of exams, it's time for me to participate in something meaningful again and prevent my thoughts/emotions from running wild. So... any takers to do volunteer work together?

On a lighter note, Singapore was plagued with loads of 'bombings' and even a 'suicide bomber' today. Yes, it's our meant-to-be-surprising little amusing exercise for today. And the hospitals were prepared for the casulties even before the 'bombs exploded'. I really must take my hat off these people. Their ability to predict the future is surprising huh? Even better, to quote off yahoo website:
"In future, he said Singapore plans to hold similar drills on biological attacks - whether man-made or natural outbreaks such as bird flu.
There will also be cross-border collaborations with health officials in neighbouring countries."Pardon me for my stupidity, but why on earth do you carry out such exercises? Is it really that useful when you've informed the whole at large that you will be conducting it some time? And those in charge don't take part too, they merely observe at the MRT stations. Watching the news just now, some of the casulties look amused themselves. How hilarious can it get? And we are going cross border to teach others? Hmm...
