oh there goes hari raya
Today's soccer was rather messed up, only 3/8 turned up lol. thx for coming zijian chenz and fangjin, thats like a combined 5-6 hours of mrt time? lol i know boon lay is damn far out, but then eh the facilities arent too bad right. +the 'hill' we climbed and the echo we heard, the view was scenic too, no? Oh yes and chenz i beat u at pool 3-4!!! ok ok i lost but still 3-4 is a pretty close score :)
Some rather lagged comments abt Mr. Ban ki moon's ascension to secretary general of the UN. I think(everyone knows, actually), he's got a tough job on his hands. Too many toes to avoid stepping on, lesser men might just freak out and play the "Secretary" and shrink away from the "General", lets hope not him.
Come to think of it, we ourselves everyday have to do the same things too, go abt our lives and not piss too many ppl off or they could get in the way of our ambition.But student life is still easy peasy. I mean, who's toes do we have to look out for? Fellow students are but 16yrs of age, and all belonging generally to the same type of people. Our youth simply arent as diversified as youths from , say, london. And that could be a good think. What about teachers? hmmm they are more colourful individuals due to their life experience, but it still pales in comparison to the kind and variety of characters Mr. Ban has to face, not to mention to soldiers(and bombs) behind these powerful men. From the "God-fearing" Bush to the Muslim Countries, ranging from the moderates to the radicals, not forgetting the Muslim-country-but-secularly-run Turkey which strangely doesn't get the kind of support one would expect from the EU. And throw certain (officially) atheist countries like china into the mix, and u know the full range of characters Mr. Ban's gonna meet. And lets not go into the crises that 'd arise if issues are not settled wisely and diplomatically. Suffice to say, the reason why wise men worry for the human
race's ability to survive the next century, is because the possibility that we might not make it is very REAL.
Now after looking at how insignificant i'm in the whole framework of this big, complex, world, i shall head to bed tonight - worrying not about the nukes and the house effects, but over my tweeny weeny lil problems i'll face tmrw. Nothing learnt, it seems :)
Oh i did learn smth today. Some interesting pick up line thats much more poetic then those greg posted on friendster some time ago. Spotted on Jingna's site, i shall reproduce it here, without her prior permission :)
我讨厌春天，但是我喜欢鲜花
我讨厌夏天，但是我喜欢雨天
我讨厌秋天，但是我喜欢落叶
我讨厌冬天，但是我喜欢雪花
我讨厌这个世界，但是我喜欢你
nice right!
But of course, i 'm under no illusions over its effectiveness. Otherwise she'll be attached by now =P And Chinese Lit students 'll be the hottest dudes around, cuz after scrutinising the fanwen tph gave out over the the past few days, many of whose authors are from CLit class(or at least i think so), i'm perfectly convinced they can write like this, if not better.
If only, come next Mon, i could do so as well.
