im about immigrate to a really back-dated civilisation where it can be compared to the 3rd world. allow me to elucidate it futher. crammed living conditions with 4 ppl living in a plave no more than 5m X 5m (25 m2) no internet access and not so fanciable food.
in light of this, im here writing my final entry for until i return. do keep posting on my tagboard to keep it alive! ;) and i'll wait with bated breath to read them when i return to tell of my wholesome trip and the number of lives ive touched.

Life's short
well yea the title says it all (becoming a lil cliche ain't it?)
i finally figured a few things in life, or rather kind of sorted out my priorities to what life should be about. I guess we have only 1 shot at everything. Yes i well aware that there are things in which you can repeat and do again until you have hit perfection. However, the adrenaline just does not pick up the second time around. So i guess i've decided that studying is the best thing for me right now.
well this essentially means i'd have to shelve all my other plans. Of which some plans will be clearer to my closer frens and some known to all. yeap. so i guess nothing except studying this year? kind of monotonous and i would not second this form of reckless hardcore memorization of niformation, of which 90% will be rendered useless in time to come when we hit the job market. its really not worth it if you would think of it simply. its just a piece of paper, with 4-5 letters printed on it. (A A A A A). However, the world has become relatively myopic and resort to resolve their problems of picking the right man for the job base on this little slip of paper, which is nothing really. strike a match and its gone.
but its this cold hard reality that we have to face and I have to face. much to my detest of such a concept, i am obliged to worship it just like any other faithful believer in the education system. so much of the irony that being against ppl worshipping religion, i personally worship a piece of paper.
