mixed.

I cant help but feel so disgusted.

There are only this many successful cases and even though ive chosen something different from wei jie's but i think there WILL be some motherfucker whose doing the same thing as me. No, using vulgarities does not mean I'm pissed.

Relax, I'm just in a swearing mood today.

It's just tough outside aint it? Here we are, fighting for commercial and political reasons while there are little children out there fighting fot their lives. Truth to be told, I am very affected by this article that appeared on TNP about this 18yr old sgrean girl and her work in afghan.

I've never said but I've considered social work before in one of my list. I don't buy the "giving back to what society have given me" bullshit, but as cliche as it sounds, there are seriously a lot of people in this world that needs help. And this help they need, is real basic life surviving help.

Doesnt it sound very fucked up? Here I am thinking if I should go to cj to get my charsiew rice instead of the hawker opposite and there, kids so young are selling matchsticks on the terrible afghan road?

On the other hand, it sounds as if I am having this serious case of "having nothing better to do" and thinking about all these things. I don't know. It's this confusion that's coming up. Or rather, it's been there for quite a while. The very first input came from no other than Janice Kok because I know for a fact that she's actually trained as a social worker and that's what she actually wants to do for a living. The first time she told me way back when we're in sec 3, there was this stirring, yada yada. In conclusion, I've just decided to come out to talk about this because it comes in conjuction with my thoughts of my future aspects.

I don't mind to get on a trip, not necessarily to afghan but somewhere there to check it out if, really it is for me. BUT first, I've got two huge steps to do. How my parents would take it and how am i gonna handle the environment. It being, I'm sickly and weakly. No seriously, think about it. You know I am sickly and weakly. But ya'know. This isnt gonna be something to stop me from going anyway. I'll deal with it when I'm there.


It's not a thing that I'm doing for fun. It's more like a calling instead. These people need help and I can help. In a very cheeena way, I also dont understand why am I so kaypo and why these kids in their situation appeals to me so. It's not something thats explainable.

However, for everything in the world there always seems to be a "but". BUT what? For extremely selfish reasons, this we all know involves no money. It's not really as if i'm into it for money reasons - cos anyway there's none. And often its more likely that i'll give my own money instead. But to do this full time, ange the city girl wont be able to take it. For very simple reasons why because we're just used this amount of comfort and speed. Or rather, the first world. And to survive in the first world requires all but another type of life skills needed.

So tell me about it. All these can and will be able to coporate into my life. I don't have to choose one over another would I? Maybe one day I would, but lets just start small shall we?

These aside, I need to set off for school in one hour's time for my marketing lecture. Whilst I can pretend to fall asleep because its combined and I'm gonna see eve for the first time in a few months and the first time we're in the same class since donkey years ago. YAY! haha.

I downloaded all Wubai's new songs in his new album but I'm still gonna buy it la. SUPPORT ORIGINAL. :D
