one thing I like about studying History is that stuff that I read just 'rocks the boat'. It makes me think and question on the many things I've always held as truth and fact.
Seems I like it when things just rock the boat.

I'm pretty satisfied with the amount of readings I managed to complete today. Tomorrow will be another free day, I'm sure I'll be able to continue the drive of reading. I hope this trend doesn't stop.. I'm so going to pull my sick CAP up to a 3.5 by the end of this AY..
I have a feeling that something's brewing but I need to be sure before capping the lid on it. Most importantly, I need to pray and ask God to show me the way.

Finally I got myself to sit down and study over the past few nights. Used to be sitting in front of the computer screen doing nothing but surfing, chatting - simply letting time to tick by.
I realized that time could be better spent to increase my knowledge and to aid me to score better in exams, than to let it tickle by and not come back anymore.
This semester, I'm taking PH1101E - Reason and Persuasion or simply put 'Introduction to Philosophy'. Just the first two lectures and I'm quite intrigued by the arguments and viewpoints brought forth. I'm someone who likes to argue a lot. Either to make my point known or to point out the faults of others, sometimes even trying to make black become white and vice versa. But should that be the whole point of an argument? If the end result is going to be one where you end up being more egoistic of yourself as being always winning, should we embark on the road to an argument in the first place?
In the module, I've learnt that there are no winners in an argument at all. The loser of course loses, but the winner loses his humbleness and humility. He will go around parading his new found victory, beaming over the losses of others. No matter how much of humbleness you can find in the winner's character. The moment he wins an argument, it all goes to his head and all is lost.
Witht his new knowledge, I'm going to strive to not argue as much as before. Not to be a losing party in arguments but more in a fact to accept the viewpoints of others and to alter their viewpoints to suit my viewpoints and to put all my viewpoints on to the discussion table and not flinch even when they are thrown back at my face. I'll gladly accept that my viewpoints are shit and make the necessary changes.

sometimes I dunno what my brain or heart is asking me to do.. I shouldn't do things out of emotions but through logical and critical thinking.. But am I capable of that? I seriously wonder..

What a week.. I guess I've nua-ed too long at home, not really used to the school life yet, feeling tired when it's like 11pm.. But it feels good to be busy at least it seems I've something worthwhile to do.
School beckons, readings scream to be read.
Seems RBR and carbonisation come as a package.
Halls picks up pace as activities fill the place.
The unheard-of CCAs and clubs: suddenly welcome teas come out.
Freshies or newbies, however you call them,
Keep blundering and wondering what's SS and GEM.
In the hustle and bustle, glimpses of friends flicker along corridors.
Rooms once echoing in silence break into a flurry exchange of words.
Buses forever cramped like sardines.
And canteens packed like buffet restaurants.
All found in one place,
The one and only NUS.

I thought my Mac was all ready to go and face the outside world. But boy, was I wrong.. Think it's still shy.. =P
The moment I switched it on in school. It starts giving me problems..
I'm really wondering what is wrong with all the new hardware that is installed inside..

I really can't remember what are the important softwares that I have installed in my computer before the crash, so I'm now using a very very Mac-ish comp. Virtually none of the settings have been tweaked at all. Somehow, I don't dislike it yet being a Mac-addict. Haz.. But think I'm going to get some new software to beautify my laptop once the hurt of the $$$ wears off..

My Apple iBook died.
From my sis - Didn't you say a Mac will never crash?
Ya, I did say that, not only to her but a lot of other people. So where's the catch?
When I said that a Mac will never crash, I meant that it will never crash due to software problems.
My iBook crashed because the HD spoilt. It's a hardware crash not a software crash. I still can switch on my laptop but it cannot detect the system volume to start up the operating system (OS)
. It's kinda irritating cos I can't use my laptop at all and I have to switch to the desktop which I'm not really compatible with. =P
Oh well, hope someone can help me with my problem asap..

Being too nice isn't a good thing...
To someone:
I helped you because I had the time and was able to accommodate my schedule to handle the extra burden. But yet when things have all been done and settled and you are back to take care of the situation, I'm being criticized as not good, not up to standard. Although I may seem nice and friendly always, there are words that do hurt me deep and when they do cut and do damage, the little heart I have would all be shattered.
I don't care if you are young and don't mean what you say cos in my eyes, I believe that you have the discerning mind of a mature adult to think through your words before spouting them out. Yes, I'm still going to be a friend to you. But damage has been done and I hope time heals. If not, then I'm sorry if this incident will leave a scar in our friendship.
To that someone, if you know who you are - good, please don't do it again
To the rest - I'm fine. Just letting off steam

Journeying on the road with no end in sight.
I wish that there was someone with light.
In tears and fears, a hand, a friend appears
Beside me you stood, despite my lousy mood.
To accompany, to edify, to build and lean on.
Together hand in hand, walking and forging on.
When the road ends, when my eyes shut.
I thank thee my friend from the bottom of my heart.
