heh. had a long dinner wif soarers at bk yst. ard 15-16ppl? but we manage to mingle together afterall. haha, talked abt unserious stuffs, jokes to more disturbing issues, running a risk of getting beaten up back at pennisular plaza there. haas. some may think our conversation is pretty discriminating or taking a one side stand.... oops. but was just a session of throwing out stuffs and exchanging views. no much big discussions as we all are pretty much on the same side of the fence. but it was good. peaceful but thought-provoking session for me.

apart from all these, my parents and i chatted awhile over dinner. (sorry man issac, told my parents abt ur "happy" experience over company lunch. larggie funny.) actually, i said pretty much of the things which bothers me after yst nite's conversation to my parents. my dad just sighed, and said "zhe ge shi jie zhen si luan" which literally means that the world is in a mess lar. if u just direct it to our society, many ethical and moral issues are now been challenged and sometimes, changed. it is sad that ethics COULD be changed over time. if ethics are morals and are there to serve as a reminder and protect ppl from doing things that would lead to a catastrophe, then it shld be changed at all?! isnt it?

that's how the grey areas of things come abt eh? no clear cut btw right and wrong, black and white anymore?

many may hear things like "live for urself" or "enjoy life....NOW!" or "how do u know whtether will u live till then? why not enjoy (spend the money) now?" some may even stubbornly choose not to continue wif their educate and fight it all out in the society at a tender age. it sounds good doesnt it? it sounds right. u SHLD pamper urself, enjoy, live wif ur own principles, etc. but to what extent i often ask..... well, if what u do now is going to cause u consequences or burdens that u have to pay back wif the rest of ur lifetime, den it shldnt be the thing you shld enjoy at this age?! it isnt right at all. of course u shld live for urself, but does that mean u dun haf to think twice before putting ur plan into action? will ur action cause other ppl's pain? so ur happiness = other ppl's pain? is it worth it? i mean some many things and ideas are now injected into our minds, sounding right yet wrong. not only our religious belief but the basic foundations of our earthly morality is being shaken.

okay, till this point, maybe many of u guys reading this must be thinking......what's her damn point? haas, okay, its not a "screaming at the society post" or isit any gp essay. but just that i realise many of us do not wanna be like that. many of us are aware of these.......things. many would like to think of others abit more or whatsoever. but what's stopping us all? what caused us to be deemed as selfish and self-centred fools? my answer is very old-fashioned and cme style. peer pressure. it's like many of us(at least my friends. sch and church likewise), i could see that u guys, including me yearn to be more understood and willing to understand others. when i feel discouraged by some selfish actions of certain ppl, i often realise i'm not alone. what does it shows? haas. there's a heart of gold in many of us. omg! haas. now i feel much more happier.

now, cy has greatly encouraged me in some ways after his birthday talk. i'm not sure if he meant it or its just a casual comment (maybe u could tag and tell me), he said that" yeah lar, communism is gd lar, but it is not successful because all of us are selfish what. but at least now the communism ppl not hypocrites. they show their selfish side openly. democracy is a fraud which hides the ugly side of human nature and package it well to be seen as fairness." okay, i sort of summarised abit. pls spore govt, dun arrest me nor cy okie? we criticising on the general system. haas. but that shows, or at least reminds me, that some of us out there might be yearning to go an extra mile for ppl, but afraid to do so. some wanna think for others but their position dun permit them to do so. some dun wanna be taken for a fool, some dun wanna be taken advantage of, so they, unwillingly, live by their self-centreness as it's the only way of survival. i can certainly emphasize them. i am also one of them. (though i''m not sure if there's rlly a "them" out there but i'm willing to believe there is.) so would it be nice if everyone were to think of others abit more? one would seem like a fool and many would make the world a better place man.

haas, all the things above are just some thought process that i went thru last nite and tonite. maybe its not accurate, maybe it sounds wrong. but hm, bear wif me can? but if u feel offended or watsoever, feel free to tell me, haas, at least i could take down the post and i certainly dun mean it. dun wnna sound too extreme or too dominating....like whatever i say must be correct. feel free to correct me too. hee.

okay, off to do work now. back still aching....ah tuay........
