It's quite late over here (1130pm) so just a quick one.
Recently had been following the Malaysia elections quite a bit as quite a few of my friends are Malaysians and generally supporters of the opposition.
From the stories i gather from them as well as what i generally read on facebook, it's not going to be a fair election despite the many BERSIH (3 at last count) rallies held over the last years. All the dirty tricks appear to be out even some extremely dumb ones such as accusing the opposition that it's their fault when banners which you yourself printed turn out to be pirated of certain other people's work.
Reading of all these keeps bringing to mind that it's really an unfair world out there and there's not much we can do about it.
I keep thinking and logic tells me that the current governing party will win especially with all the dirty tricks they are playing but some small part of me can't help but root for the underdog opposition and hope they win and prove that there is some good in the world after all.
Signing off as a hopeless idealist
PS. wonder what will happen when it comes to SG's turn come 2016

Been two years....
Wow, been two years....
Two years, how many two years does a human being have in their lives....
Hmm... if we were to live to 90.... (people in Jap lived to 100+ but let's not be ambitious)... then we will have 45 times two years... sounds like a lot but not really...
Well, if you count it in smaller amounts... it actually translates roughly to 90*12*30*24*60*60 = 279936000 secs. Minus my age that will be about 1,710,720,000 secs... 1,710,719,999, 1,710,719,998...
One of my friends years ago gave me an idea of counting down the number of seconds we have left in our life to really see how we are losing our lives secs by secs.. morbid i know but still...
Anyway, this is just to say..i
I AM BACK.
Decided on a whim to start writing a bit again..hopefully, ok, well... this time will make it last...
haha...

Feeling Old
Was surfing around and found this article on a blog....
Bring back lots of old memories as my dad used to work as the security there and I was playing around the area when really young.
For those old enough to remember "the good ole days..."
Kudos to the blogger/team which brought back the memories....

Celebration of Losers
Saw this article laying around...
Felt that while history only remember winners, there's always a spot for the graceful losers as well and let us not forget that....:)

Interesting Stuff
Saw this on a link on how to get your kids to read, most of it is fairly normal and encouraging but this is something....
TOILET READING
Have books placed in the toilet. As weird as it seems, you will be amazed at how much more receptive they will be to reading in there, due to the lack of distractions.
