Thinking about thinking
Yes. It’s been some time since I blogged. Really got busy.
Throughout these few months I have been thinking alot. Thinking about thinking in particular. No I am not trying to do some memetic engineering lol.
I think i really lacked in some of the fundamental skills. Basically focus and concentration. Darn i am really bad at them. Every 15 mins of things i do i ‘d take a break and...

“Embrace each moment because nothing lasts forever, do not cry because it’s...”
– CK’s faithful quote. I doubt I can ever do the things aforementioned, seriously. This is one of the most difficult things to achieve in life. Probably next lifetime.

the fallacy of truth and the truth of fallacy
As I grew older, I feel more so that everything I see, hear and think may not be true and memories are just as they are- intricate, incomplete and fleetly insignificant. Coincidentally, i read through various interesting articles by Gary Hayden. I think his views and I are pretty similar too.
Like it or not, all humans suffered from the fallacy of knowledge, memory, thinking and the 5 senses.

congratz to federer
Congratz to roger federer! He won his 15th grand slam tournament, upon defeating rodick! The wimbleton finals was really amazing, it showed plenty of tenacity and lasted a whopping 4 hours match. After this match, i had no qualms that he’s the greatest tennis player of all times and probably ever is. Those who play sports will know that tennis is a cruel game, and is one of the sports that...

recovering
The previous weeks were plagued with injuries. My toe got injured pretty badly and gotta restrain from physical activities for at least 3 weeks. To make matters worse, my backaches started to choke on me. Can’t really do anything, kinda sad, had to stay at home and read books, watch DVDs.

trends
some trends i noticed would happen:
aesthetics industry to flourish in the next 20 years (i think as young as 12 year olds will be able to afford to turn plastic by then)
divorce rates will shoot up to 30%++ in the next 15 years
more private bus service operators will be made popular in the next 10 years(as opposed to SBS and SMRT)
north korea to become non-existent by 2050

some thoughts
i feel that being in the biz school for 3 years pretty much changed my way of life and thinking. most people, believe it or not, will change to a more business mindsets in the biz school after their 3 years in school. the economy, media and current affairs are all now a part of our lives. maybe i should thank ms koh for her peerless mentorship lessons. haha. i would still reminsce how she scold...

day out
treated suhartono to a farewell meal before he leaves for jakarta.. the movie with daryl, jackson, josh , kelvin was nice. Valkyrie is about the infamous hitler and the sky high plan to kill him. the film’s a good lesson for all. tom cruise is really a good actor. i kinda enjoyed the film throughout. overall a poignant film though.
