Interesting how men can gossip about the same issues for more than ten years. Interesting how an entire table of people can fall silent with the appearance of visitors from "the other side". Interesting how academics just automatically become the subject of conversation when certain parties come together. Interesting how a mystifying aura can end all conversation when it merely comes from the person who brought them up. Interesting how money can invoke the most creative thoughts. Interesting how individuals can be so ambitious at a tender age. Interesting how a mother drowns her child in assessment books but teaches her to tell everyone that she does not study. Interesting how snobbish they can get when they're really not that capable. Interesting how one could worry over the smallest of issues. Interesting how someone who never fails to go to church every sunday, read the Bible and pray everyday, will never buy lunch for his wife, not let her read the newspaper cos she doesn't pay him 80 cents for it.


Sounds like an unemployed, bored, aimless person's starting to ponder over the most bizarre matters. Nah, was just thinking, the woes of money, academics and egocentricism. Someone mentioned this before, that the world is a troubled one. And I must concur with that.

Here's a shout out to VIVIAN, my beloved cousin! Happy fifteenth birthday! Continue to obtain excellent results, practise your erhu, and be busy with SC! Stop dreaming of going out to work and get your red car, that can wait. School life's so much better. Treasure your years in DHS, they will fly past before you know it! God bless and stay high, smart and busy! (:

Gosh, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by the number of emails regarding the concert. A big thank you to Zhou Mo for editting the letters and forms! I feel... Extremely slack. Argh. Anyway, the concert's on 4th March, Wednesday! It's extremely weird, must be the first time in a million years that the DHSCO concert's on a weekday. Hmm....

While we're still on the subject of birthdays... Here's a very gentle reminder, that yours truly is turning 19 in exactly two months! Hee hee hee!
