::ME::
In a place of voidness, I need colours. Blue, Red, Green.
May the colours tell of a story that will not let me regret.

If Only ...
Today, the boys ran 3.8km. Not that I'm proud or what, but it seems my physical state is IMPROVING! Note ! Improving not = GD. Haha. Let's say it was 'extremely bad' last time and now it is only at 'very bad'. I feel lighter. Maybe it's a psychological effect. Cause I really ran/jog for the entire journey. Ok, a little walking here and there but I swear it's not as much as before! Haha.
Watched a video for GP today. Cool sia! The cartoons, the freedom of speech, the blame on government. I wonder how S'pore government might react if a similar video was made. Well, in the first place, it can't be made. Haha. I don't really know 'SouthPark' but I have a little impression of it. Apparently, the author/creator of the cartoon series said something I could connect with. Kids in the US grow up with the teachers and principals drilling them the ideology 'If you are a loser today, you will be a loser for your entire life.' Firstly on my point of perspective, this ideology is REAL and HAPPENING in my family. My parents ask for high standards, especially in academics. Not that I did very badly in exams, just that I did not perform up to THEIR expectations. And the problem is, I don't ask too much of myself. Easy come Easy go. I know, it's hard (very difficult) to survive in such society (esp S'pore) with that kind of attitude. And so I shall try my best. =D
However, I feel that not only my parents had this kind of thinking. How did they get this kind of thinking? What made them think this way? Society? Their parents? Fear? Insecurity? I know the answer and so do they. It's how the way things are. (All this are CRAP)
On a lighter note, I'm just glad Singapore is quite a safe country.
You look at the clouds, I look at the silver lining. Is that self-deception?
I could sit there and watch the sky as the day goes by.
