Change

It is not about the inability to change. But about exercising wisdom in change. People do not usually change. Therefore, assuming there is a quota for amount of change. Let's make trivia changes and short-change ourselves the opportunity to implement the critical one.

NUS ranking dropped

1 year when i'm away, the ranking dropped.

is it caused by political factors, or the quality of research work?

Or is it caused by some other factors?

I know not...

Missing You

You have no idea, how much i am missing you, your company and just being to enjoy a conversation with you...

Singaporeans

Like the looks of the HDB blocks build in different times, the desires of the old and new generation singaporean differs a lot.

The question to ask ourselves, is it necessary?

Was it because we were brought up in a way, that promotes 'to be successful'?

The Potato Story

Borrowing something from Wikipedia's.

Historically, there are people suffering from hunger and lack of social welfare. We fare no better today. But yet, how is it that we, are still bickering amongst ourselves over trivial things?

Article on "English Rule" on 7 March, Mitchel wrote:

“

The Irish People are expecting famine day by day... and they ascribe it unanimously, not so much to the rule of heaven as to the greedy and cruel policy of England. Be that right or wrong, that is their feeling. They believe that the season as they roll are but ministers of England’s rapacity; that their starving children cannot sit down to their scanty meal but they see the harpy claw of England in their dish. They behold their own wretched food melting in rottenness off the face of the earth, and they see heavy-laden ships, freighted with the yellow corn their own hands have sown and reaped, spreading all sail for England; they see it and with every grain of that corn goes a heavy curse. Again the people believe—no matter whether truly or falsely—that if they should escape the hunger and the fever their lives are not safe from judges and juries. They do not look upon the law of the land as a terror to evil-doers, and a praise to those who do well; they scowl on it as an engine of foreign rule, ill-omened harbinger of doom."
