After many years of procastinating, finally made my first visit to MPH since ages ago to look for books. Bought 4 books, 3 on self improvement and 1 fiction. It really is time to do content upgrading. spent one and a half hours in a small bookshop in Citylink mall but time seem to whizz past so quickly.
Then went to Jack's place for dinner before ending the night with the movie 'HERO'. As usual, was late for the first part of the show. Grrrrr....It was a light-hearted but very inspiring movie, as the plot was very simple - To do your job well. Many people lost their passion and direction after being in the same job for years, which is one of the driving force why people change workplace. We must never lose sight of our objective.

The grand event for the year is finally over...phew, a great load off my shoulder as i heaved a sigh of relief. With the closure of the staff retreat, the school year 2007 will be gradually coming to an end. What's left will be time for R & R. But there are 2 things still bogging my mind, one is positive while the other is however negative.
On the good note, I have found a resting place perfect for me psychologically and psychically. From the looks of things, I should be able to develop myself into a better person as well as a more rounded teacher. 2007 has been very much similar to a sine wave where I am a piece of floating debris, stationary but oscillating vertically with time. (Hopefully not only those taking physics understand but i very much doubt it.) To people I have unknowingly or purposely offended, I like to say a big SORRY to you. To those who have helped me in a way or another, I like to extend my warmest regards for without you, I would not have come so far.
"Life is a marathon not a 100 m sprint." This quote is really powerful and it has taken me a full 28 years to appreciate it.
Meanwhile, can a person have multiple identities? Imagine have 2 distinct characters living in a body, wun there be conflict within the heart and actions? It is indeed a double-edged sword and I have no idea when I can solve this riddle. But one thing is certain, POWER can corrupt a man.
Hope my chinese teacher dun faint when she sees this. Haha. It's been hmm....12 years since I last touched/wrote this. With the impending finish of the exams, it brings forth another beginning. Just like the song "the beginning of the end of the beginning"..... Is the beginning or the end worth looking forward to? The century old question is baack again.."which comes first, the chicken or the egg?"
Does power drive a man crazy or does a man is crazy cos he's powerful? Which do you belong to? Does conscience still have a place in our society where productivity and efficiency are the key factors?在这金钱挂帅的社会,仁慈能否占一席位?Our 3000 years teachings, can it still be instill in place now?
