Is it better to take sides, or be the middleman? Does being objective become being seen as taking sides? Someone, with a head that is clear of all hatred and prejudice and also possess a forgiving heart, please tell me what is wrong with this world... Its the new year, so lets remove all of our facades and leave together harmoniously... Or is that even an ideological thinking?

This is it, the year 2010 has come. 2009 had been quite a year for me, for the many things that had happened had given me a new perspective of things to come. I've seen the good, the bad, the nice, and the ugly in the past year, some of which have changed me and the way I see and do things. I'm optimistic about what is to come this new year, with a major event being that I'M GONNA ORD THIS YEAR!!! Haha that aside, I look forward to enjoying myself this year. Let the bad things go away with 2009, let bygones be bygones, and start anew in this new year. Goodbye 2009, Hello 2010.

I think the scientist in me is constantly filling my head with questions... Though, some of them really get me thinking... What is the science behind humour? And, What is the science behind love? In lay-man's terms, "What makes us tick?" Are they merely merely electrical impulses to and fro the brain? Why do such impulses relay such a peculiar reaction? The human brain is such a wonderful thing it's almost an art form in itself...

Sometimes, having a lot of time to yourself can really let you see things in a different light... Its lets you get a clearer picture of your life. It gives you a reality check, allowing you to see what is real, what is just an illusion. It enables you to differentiate things which you think is true, from those which are actually true and also those which are actually not. It is like entering the inner sanctuary of your mind, and then looking out from those windows of the mind called Eyes, just to see the illusion around you shatter, to reveal the painful truth beyond... Looks like the faux.fire burned out this time... Will there be a re-ignition?

I was just browsing through the never-ending updates of other people's lives on facebook until a thought hit me, quite hard in fact: People are actually having a life out there, celebrating x'mas and all... Then I do a little self-reflection and reality hits: Shit, what the hell am I doing with my life??? People are having fun out there while all i'm doing is just browsing through facebook and playing my guitar learning new songs online??? Dang I'm gonna need help... Seriously...

I seriously wonder how will the people with seemingly no aim in life besides what is in the present, extremely narrow hearts and what they perceive as the easier route to 'enjoy life' survive in the harsh reality called Society, aka the "Real World Out There". In groups, they may seem like they're the boss, being 'cool' and 'in command'. But in truth, its all just a facade that crumbles away to nothing once they become an individual. 'Cool' is actually just being different from the mainstream; some may even term it as 'weird' or worse, 'gross'. Likewise, 'In command' may be the end result of being extremely loud, literally, and uncouth, so much that there is not much hope in trying to make them change for the better which results in others not bothering to even express their own views or counter-argue, for the simple reason to not damage and dirty their ears. It may seem as though the world will be a better place if Pandora's Box wasn't opened in the first place, so the 7 deadly sins would not escape and plague the world. But like everything in this universe, when there's light, there is darkness; when there is ying, there is yang, etc. Such people are important, no matter how ironic it may sound, to maintain a balance in this Society. They give us constant reality checks to remind ourselves how ugly the world is out there; They are constantly reminding ourselves to never EVER be like them, to degrade ourselves to the level of them, to insult Life itself by becoming them. Hence such 'Scum of the Earth', as some would call them, are crucial to the balance and harmony in this world as they make us better persons, better individuals, not just to ourselves, but also the people that we care about. Our family, friends and the other people that help shape our lives will all benefit from this. And from this, Society would benefit from a micro level to a macro level over time. As such, I stand by the fact that a society cannot function with the absence of such people who live on the ' principles' of hypocrisy, greed, lust, self-centeredness, childishness, etc etc.

This is a sad sad world... People can be so blinded by their own facades, insecurities and childishness that they do not see the path to self-destruction of their own future laid out in front of them... It's really such a pity... I wish for them to open their eyes before they enter the realm of self-damnation...

Woot~! Today begins the first of a few long weekends that i'm gonna stay in the civvie world due to the many lovely offs that i have now. Fantastic... The only thing that is missing now would be extra cash to get the many things that I wanna get. :(
Anyways, my com was the target of yet another virus attack recently, but luckily with the help of Yang, I was able to save it, and the best thing is that its now running on WINDOWS 7 ULTIMATE~! Uber shiokness... Though a lil bit laggy due to my pathetic 1GB ram, its still a nice platform to work with. :P Hopefully by the time I enter NUS with my own laptop, the NUS system will be compatible with Windows 7 which will be the OS of my new laptop!
With nothing to do in camp and the lack of nice games for the psp, I've resorted to watching videos. Currently got like 11 movies and 1 season of The Big Bang Theory (which is a very hilarious comedy sitcom) in my psp, and counting. Lucky the malfunction of my screen is a small matter, if not i'll be one sad and bored soldier. Haha~!
Oh well, its back to the movies then~!

Rahhhhh... Temptations EVERYWHERE!!!
I once said that i'll NEVER buy Apple products... I also once said that i'll NEVER buy Crumpler products too... But now, I take it back... ALL back...
Looking at the iPhone my dad just got for himself and a new "discovery" I made today while at an Apple store, I changed my mind... It was an instant 180 degree turnover. Snap, just like that. The end result? I feel like getting an iPod Nano or an iTouch...
And then there's the bag issue... I'm gonna need a good-sized, comfortable and of course good-lookin' messenger bag. Three years ago, I thought my Tagger was up to the task, but now it seems my initial choice of a Crumpler was better... Now I hope I can find one on Ebay since it's gonna be much cheaper there...
Haiz, both items are what I consider wallet-sinful items... Unlimited wants, limited resources... Scarcity is haunting me again... Damn I hope that back-pay is gonna be substantial, so maybe I can get myself a nice Christmas present. Hehehe~~~
