implicit, explicit...
Today was quite funny... I was walking with Weiguang towards Arts Facualty canteen for breakfast/lunch, then dunno why I got a bit jumpy and started sliding down the railing of the staircase. It was an external staircase, not a stairwell!! So the other side of the rail is mid-air... down to the all-time popular concourse. Hmm it would be a fall factor of infinity since there was no rope.. and 4 storeys seemed high enough. That sure scared Joose and Weiguang.. saw that stunt panicky expression on Joose face.. hahahaha! Dunno why I did it also...
Found myself quite petty afterwards. Hong Jun went to print some stuffs and promised to join us later at Arts Fac canteen. Weiguang and Winnie ordered their food first while I waited for Hong Jun... it took quite a long time before he arrived. Now thinking back I think I was very bad to feel petty.. afterall he didn't ask me to wait for him before ordering food, and secondly I shouldn't guess that he was dilly-dally. Oh, the spaghetti I ordered kind of cheered me up, cos it looked like kids' meal... haha so little spaghetti in such a big yellow plate, looked kinda cute~ and the peas and tomato slice looked quite out of place also.. haha!
Later went to University Cultural Centre with Hong Jun cos he needed to take something for his ExxonMobil club. Wow I met Pearlyn there!! Hmm actually I only met her twice and those occasions were 3 years ago, when I was still active in Singapore History Museum. It wasn't surprising that she didn't recall knowing me. Didn't talk for long, but I know she is working at NUS Museum now. Nevermind, reminds me of those ladies' gossip in SHM.
Ah... went home and watched School Rumble. It is supposed to be a super funny school comedy, but when I think deeper, it is actually quite sad. The story is about A liking B, but B likes C, and C knows nothing about it. Well.... being superficial isn't a bad thing some of the time. Man complicates things and make himself unhappy. If only everything is as simple.

that is the problem with human beings. When you are within easy reach of something, you want to reach out for further things. When you have gotten that further things, you realize you shouldn't let go of the things that seem easily available to you. Something similar to taking things for granted, but not quite the same. We are always at conflict with ourselves, what sociology terms it conflict theory. This conflict theory states that an equilibrium is attained by having constant conflict. Something like equal and opposite force that Issac Newton came up with.

Actually, simply put, its discontentment, and the popular proverb "The grass is always greener on the other side" tends to apply. :)
Haha... its good to let yourself go once and awhile.. just be aware of your surroundings la!
Man complicates stuff... hmm... dunnoe.. coming from someone who thinks too much liao... haha

I'm taking sociology as one module. That's the difference between NUS and NTU: NTU wants you to become good engineer; NUS wants you to be all-rounded engineer.. kinda silly but what to do.

wah.. serious eh.. wahaha.. my course here pretty concentrated on the engineering profession.. but well.. next yr onwards, i'll need to take up general education.. which is like your sociology.. meaning other faculty subjects.. anyway.. is sociology nice to do?

sociology allows you to understand about social patterns, like why such thing happens in society.. ie increase in divorce rate, etc etc. It is kind or interesting, but has a lot of reading materials to cover. so that is the minus point of it. Nice topic to study if you like to read.
