Today , I skipped econs class.
Today , I did my sociology assignment for the first time, printed it out for every one.
Toady , I ate my lunch with Ken Hong.
Today , I met Jarrod, Jason & Yee Li in main block.
Today , I went to play dota with classmates Wei Jin & Jun after socio class.
Today , I went to SS2 to eat my dinner and found out that many shops didnt open.
Today , I kana diu by my mum for skipping class and driving so fast.
Today , I am updating my blog because it was a request, from a friend, and a proof that I m still alive.
Today ,
we are living in a world of dramatic and unprecedented social change : many new technologies and cultural upheavals are transforming our lives. As prosperity grows and cultural taboos break down , millions of people in modernized societies are confronted by more choices than ever about how to live their lives. Yup , that includes me as well.
However, it seems that the drive for ever greater prosperity and new found freedoms and lifestyle choices come at a price, at rates of crime, mental disorder , drug addiction and self harm will always be on the rise.
So, how did our world became like this ? Why are people's life so different , so unimaginable from those of our parents and grandparents ? What are the possibilities of our lives in the distant future ? What are the solutions ?
These are few of the many questions that a sociologist would ask , and attempts to answer. Finding the right key to unlock the mysterious Pandora Box, discovering secrets of the society that made us who we are and who we will become.
I think , I m in love with socio.

lost for a moment.
I had been pondering bottomlessly for the past 3 days and 2 nights. If I am wiser , all of these wouldnt have had happened ...
Case 1 - Mr Wan Fang.
I had been turning down your requests for a group study . Kept you waiting ever since week 3 , and worst , I cant help you at all before mid term. I chose, to prioritize some other things which in the end I felt I failed miserably at doing so either. I m at guilt. And you still treat me as if nothing happened. . . I dont have any excuses for myself. Its okay if you hate me man.
I took your trust for granted. I caused you to fail . I felt that I m the one to be blamed. I 'm ashamed of myself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case 2 - Sis
A sis I would always look up to , a capable person with resolute willpower. Ur always carrying all the burden by yourself . I m not holding any grudge here, but I found myself unable to keep up with your pace and way of doing things. I just cant . Most probably, I m too stupid to catch up and assist in the group work . I felt left out in doing the assignment and essentially, useless. Tommorow is the deadline for Mkting assignment. I still havent dare to ask anything because I dont know whats going on and how much work every 1 has compiled. Yesterday night , waited till 11 pm for a file but slept in front of the laptop. I felt like trash. I think I m not fit to be your suboordinate. Its too painful for me if things continue to go on like that.
I took your expectations for granted. I failed you. I m sorry >_<
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case 3 - Seng Hong , Felicia , Yong Jie
My dear macro group members are as, above. Due to my ignorance & carefree atitude, I failed to plan properly and that caused disarray during preparing the assignment. Although the presentation was completed in the last minute , I made every 1 felt uneasy and uncomfortable. It generated waves of disatisfaction and its not what I really want. I will take responsibility for this.
I took your time, energy & devotion for granted. For that , I apologize. I wont let that happen , ever again.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case 4
Someone once told me , that doing well in my course will enable me to graduate faster , and bring my parents happiness. If I failed in my subjects I will use more of my parents' money for education, therefore wasting their money . I used to think like that , too .
But I see it now , that failing in my course isnt about wasting their $$$. Its about wasting their LovE. Sometimes, somethings are so pure and beautiful in this world that blind ppl like me cant even see them. Even though its right in front of my eyes.
I've taken love for granted . I will remember this forever. Lov3 ya , M & D.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case 5 - mySelF
I used to think exams are everything. Slacking off in class, were my relaxing days & also , the times when I spoilt myself to the max.
The test of the majority lies in its minority.
I learnt today , that the course itself is a test. From the moment I enrolled, every single day is the beginning of a new test. Thus, understanding the materials thought in class is as important as sitting for the finals. If I only study for the exams, I wont get much satisfaction from learning.
I gotta be more passionate in my studies. Thank you , to a person who taught me the meaning of the word embrace.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
bah... i wanna sleep liaox. tired
even i say i wanna sleep , i cant =/ . . had to wait for that some 1 to patch up the remaining assignment. . waiting and waitin . . cant sleep , cant sleep .
