It is, indeed, an exhilarating time for America now! I can almost hear the people on the streets rejoice and there is a mob going in school now, I heard. It is truly amazing how Obama has reversed the tides of racism and remains of the antebellum America, winning a slim majority of the white votes. He also won among women and Latino voters, reversing a longstanding Republican trend. This African American is indeed a cut above the rest and has executed one of the most motivating, historic campaign in the history of America.
Even though I am not American, I was deeply touched by his intent during his landmark speech which just concluded. At least here is somoeone who knows the impact of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and calls for decent healthcare and tax cuts. How he is going to save the financial crisis, I don't know; in fact I don't know how that could possibly be restored in the near future. But at least looking at him, I see some glimpse of hope in America. Maybe its all just big talk and empty words, but I think that is precisely what America needs now to cover up her wounds and reinstate her dignity.
God Bless You, America! (So that other nations will be blessed)
♥ CORNMAZEEEEE!!!

WHEEEE! we went for a cornmaze and that was wayyyy too much fun to handle on a night hovering about the 50s. We were all frozen by the time we got out!
We went to Williamston, almost an hour away for that. And I'm glad we didn't choose to go for the haunted trail. It took us one an a half hour to get out of that maze!!!!! The whole route was about 3 miles. Inside the maze was pitch dark and every damn turning within those deep corns looked exactly the same. We had no maps, just a torch light. AMAZING man.
Kudos to those guys to carved out the maze from those tractors. Great Michigan theme this year too! Check out the big M at the bottom; the Upper Peninsula and Michigan state in the middle of the maze; the bicyle, snow automobile, the Mackinac Island Bridge in the left top corner; the Ford cars and the crazy T-maze on the right top corner, and of course the LightHouses!!!!:D
Would totally do this all over again if it wasn't that cold:)

Sterling State Park's great view of Lake Erie
This weekend is fall break and I didn't head anywhere for the first time, because UM School of Public Health was having an open house for prospective students. I went and I must confess that I fell in love with the school, the facilities and the curriculum. So, I decided to stay on in ( &@#%$ cold ) Michigan for another two more years starting next September. Of course, this is provident on that fact that I do get into UM SPH, because it is really quite hard to get in:S
Spent a lot time figuring out my future this weekend. Attending UM SPH prospective student day was the first step, and things are finally falling into place now. Sometimes I really hate myself for needing this sense of security from knowing how the future is going to turn out. But sometimes I'm glad that I have this trait because it keeps me forward planning.
For now, I have decided to go home from January to August. It will be great because I can help in preparing Weiyu's wedding. I can possibly taech for a whole 8 months (and please guys tell me if you have any lobangs for teaching..im looking at JCs. thanks). I can "pork myself up" and celebrate CNY, seomthing which I haven't done for a long time and which I would be missing another couple more years. I would be able to spend time with my family back in Singapore because my dad has decided to go back. I'm really feeling blessed to have this shelter back home, a family to fall back on when things aren't working out sometimes and someone up there who has been looking out for me. Especially since a friend just got diagnosed with cancer, and visiting him recently has just made me really pensive about my life, what I have been doing and what I should be doing. Along that line, I am glad that I have also made some personal decisions, and I should move on with my life:)
On a happier note, I went to sterling state park with a ocuple of the sophomores who stayed behind for fall break just yesterday. We had initally wanted to go apple picking but Wiard's Orchard was closed. But the picturesque views, sandy beaches and overhead sun at Lake Erie all made up for it. It was nothing too exciting, just a relaxed way of enjoying a Sunday afternoon.
I'm really hoping that everyone out there is getting along well:) Do please stay in touch with me, cos sometimes I got so sickening anti-social that I fail to keep those treasured ties tenable:) TC.

It's already October! Probably been through quite a bit in this first month of school. Adjusting, readapting, optimizing, falling, standing up again. Life is always full of challenges isn't it!
Trying to balance a lot of things this semester. Looking for jobs, applying for schools, doing that 18 credit workload. Hopefully will enjoy this semester as much as I intended to be:) Things are gonna be tough, but glad that things usually work out. Family's gonna relocate home to Singapore finally ( after ten thousand donkey years) and it seems that even if I cant get an internship or co-op here next year, I can just go back Singapore for the whole time yea!!!:)

Here's a shout out to all, especially since the long summer hiatus I had. Hmm looks like when the travelling bug, slacking and torrid weather in Singapore hit me, and usual online/facebook exchanges all move off the virtual world to actual entities, blogging had to take a secondary status.
Now that schools been in full force for a week, and I'm starting to feel the brunt of it, taking 18 credits again this semester. Some people say I'm mad, crazy or throw out whatever labels you deem fit, but you know, I really feel restless. And that I really want so much more than I actually have now. College life sometimes is just too short. I mean, college is the time when I REALLY study, understanding, application and real world stuff. Prior to this was all taking blind notes-taking in lectures that were not interactive of any sort, discussions that were semi-helpful depending on my state of wakefulness from watching late night tv shows. College has sorta formed a regimen out of me, sleeping same time, waking same time, rushing here and there for club meetings, project meetings etc. Sometimes priorities do get messed up, but one definitely knows how to get back.
And now that I sorta finally figured out college life, I have to move on. As for the future, it's really now still very amorphous. What would fit in my situation now, is simply to take "one step at a time" ( which also happens to be one of my favourite songs by Jordin Sparks:D ).
Well, of course college life is not just about hitting the books and trying to attain that perfect balance between essay and homework deadlines, sleep, midterms and finals. A more salient feature is the socializing on campus- parties, hangouts, chill outs and just outings! Which makes it a worthy mention that I actually got my butt down to the 100-year-old-blood-feud-football-competitor-state of Michigan, Ohio State, and visited their almost now world renowned amusement park, Cedar Point. Imagine almost thirty different kind of rides, from the most common go-karts, bumper cars, to semi thrilling ones like Power Tower that sends you up on this vertical column so slow that its gets too scary and suspenseful at that tremendous height, and sends you free-falling down at something close to value of g. The other end of the spectrum consists of the TopThrill Dragster which is this impossibly daunting and CRaZy ride, that accelerates from 0to 120 MPH ( miles per hour, which translates to almost 192 kmph) in just 4 seconds. It sends you seated 90 degrees from the vertical up, and then you make some twists and turns at the top, flip a 180 degree so that you are literally looking at yourself falling down from the colossal height. That is totally scary. I got scared out just by looking at people at doing it.;S
Alrighty, getting a little long here. Some photos for visuals and ALOHA ( both welcome and goodbye in Hawaii)!:)
Meesiam batch gathering, at Great Lakes. Yea we left exactly when it was closing.8.01 pm! Not a very good picture to gauge the height of the power tower (the vertical plunge) but its really damnnn high. They must had a reason for naming it that hurh.

♥ May- the month of travelling
Friday, May 23, 2008
3:41 AM
In 3 more days, it will be a full month since I started on my travelling holiday. In 10 more days, it will be the start of a hopefully less dreadful research internship at the Niopolis. I suppose it will be a hard transition back to work, but its really time to pick up tempo again after such a long holiday!
Philadelphia, Washington D.C, NYC and Boston trip was relaxing, meaningful and full of learning. The mere combination of those four cities meant a package of historical, political and cultural themes from the States. Boston, MA, was quite a tourist trap, but still remained the top on my list for its scenic views of the Charles River and the flashbacks of British, Irish, WWII history. Downtown was small enough to cover by foot and every single person you spoke to seemed in such a relaxed mood. The only throwback was the heavy Boston accented English.
Right now, I'm in Shanghai, blogging from the comfort of my dad's apartment in the heart of Shanghai's pristine shopping district, Huai Hai Road. The landscape of Shanghai has ceased to amaze me so far. To the north of the apartment, running east-west is the famous HuaiHai Old Town district, peppered with skyscrapers, throngs of office worker crowds and affluent shoppers. To the south lies the still poverty-striken lower class of China housed in low lying communal housing, often running their home "businesses" from their squeezy compounds. From family restaurants, dry good shops,roadside snacks, street barbers to rows of vegetables and fruits laid out on the already squeezy pavements, this bustling bazaar is the real reflection of many sub-urban places in China. For me, living in a thirtieth-floor apartment flanked by this two contrasting districts, serves more than a bird's eye view of the mosaic landscape. I can see the daily struggles of the lower class people when I visit the wet market with my mother as well as the flagrant spending of the upperclass at topnotch restaurants three blocks away. I can hear the constant buzzing of cars, taxis, buses alike- the very trademark of the congested roads of China. This is resolute proof of its unstoppable rising world power as hurried unflinching street drivers skilfully wind in and out of lanes, with only their eventual destination in mind. I can breathe the slightly musty, highly polluted air of this land which bore the Great Wall of China and the current host of the 2008 Olympic Games- events that have and will mark an indelible mark in the minds of many global people.
Interestingly, I landed in Shanghai 2 days after the massive 8.0 Richter scale earthquake annihilated WenChuan. In the first few days recovering from jetlag and waking up at the most unearthly hours, I refueled with the news on CNN and BBC. Later in the morning as my parents awake, the channels are changed to local Chinese news on CCTV. The difference in news content and delivery regarding the earthquake then unravels. The Chinese news carry largely more positive news depicting the People's Liberation Army heroic deeds of ploughing through 3 days of mountainous trekking to deliver supplies to the trapped villagers, music of newly composed songs celebrating the unity of the Republic of China in the wake of this disaster resonate during commercial breaks and a plethora of donation hotlines, latest disaster news constantly adorn the left hand column of the screen. Everywhere on the street donation boxes scream in your face, hoping you would donate a litte more today. In contrast, BBC and CNN news drill on the poor quality of building materials responsible for the tofu-buildings that crumbled at the slightest earthquake tremors and of how generations of Chinese are being wiped out in this natural disaster due to the one child-policy. I am not insinuating that the Chinese government is promoting propaganda, but that visiting China in the early wake of a truly devastating cataclysm, I really feel the unity of this masssive country that probably has been unfairly overviewed as a communist barbaric country. Millions and millions of dollars have been donated by the locals, and many spontaneously travel to the disaster area to volunteer. In my opinion, the disaster has helped to illuminate the economic strength of China. If everyone in China just donates one dollar, they have billions to tide them through another crisis. The strength of this country, is a question that neither any one nor any country/superpower will dare to answer.
Having just finished a 421 page turner the Persian Mirror: The Elusive Face of Iran, I feel especially a compulsion to compare between the States, China, Singapore and Iran. But I will keep my opinions to myself for they are not worthy to mention here. More importantly, I want to recommend this book to anyone who wants to better understand the situation in contemporary Iran, the holy ruins of the ancient Persepolis and the only Islamic Republic in the Middle East. Elaine Sciolino, writer for the NYTimes as well, has been in Iran for since the time of Khomeini's 1979 revolution. She is in a unique position herself, being an American and having married a American Jew. She artfully explores the different private and public faces of Iranians, their love-hate relationship for their homeland currently plagued with economic inflation of up to 40%, as well as the constrant contradiction between a theocratic Islamic government and the need to modernize, yet still carry out Westoxication. Iran is a young country still struggling to reach a clear consensus on the religious and secular boundaries of its clerics-ruled government. My reflections after finishing the book? Iran is only a microcosm of the religious and political unrest in Middle East. She is flanked by the extreme fundamentalist Taliban ruled Afghanistan and authoritative Saddam Hussein dominated Iraq, to just mention two of them. The diversity of Islamic influenced themes across the Middle East is just too confusing: Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Kurdistan, Lebanon, Israel etc. Under the chador that all Iranian women are forced to don, one sees more than the actual facial lines of Iranian women, more than just repressed feminist voices, but inexplicable faces of frustration and ambivalence towards the Iranian government. Elaine Sciolino said it most aptly. While America is struggling with a divide between different races, Iran and many parts of the Middle East are still struggling with the divide between the two genders.
Word of caution: Don't attempt this book if you dont have a basic understanding of the history of contemporary Iran. Even though Elaine Sciolino intertwines snippets of history with her anecdotes, it might still be too dense for one with a shaky understanding of the Middle East.
♥ the Internal excellence

I feel like I'm tearing apart sometimes. But after a really depressive episode last week, which really affected my cognitive, emotional, physical abilities etc. etc. , I can see why theres this chinese saying that goes somewhat like " You won't know what warmth is until you have experienced bitter cold". There are just so many things in life that are perceived RELATIVE to other things.
It started out with studying with Iz and Ghim yest. Iz was discussing her sociology class and asked us " what do you think definition of promiscuity is?". Dumbfounded for a while, andd i feebly attempted " err...its not absolute isn't it. I mean it depends on different culture backgrounds." She presented hers, which was really mind-blowing in a way. "Someone is promiscuous if she has more sex than you. relative to someone".
I mean thats really true. come to think of it, I always measure myseelf relative to other people. Maybe relative is just a euphemism of competition. AHHHH. There it is. I measure my own happiness, relative to what other people have, making myself feel more warmth and better self-efficacy when I htink that there are many other homeless people , many who don't get to go to school or choose the school they want to and the list can go on forever. I measure my "success" in a course in comparison to the class average. A standard deviation of 10 points above the mean is considered a success on a test. I measure my level of accmoplishment on any single day to the amount of work I did on another day when I was in the feel. Comparision, competition and relativism. Does all things in life really have to be such relative constructs?
I kinda figured out that perhaps the reason why I feel so ambivalent sometimes is because I am always strugglign to find that balance- the balance between absolute perfectionism ( which i will never do because thats simply Obsessive Compulsive) and the laid-back attitude at the other end of the spectrum. Many times I get complacent when i get slightly ahead in the rat race, lie back a little, only to realise after a short while that I am lagging. Which then inspires a mini-panic attack, that makes me pull up my socks and work hard again.
Which is exactly my point. Why can't I strive for internal excellence? You know, excellence where I count myself as my only competitor. Not grades, not classmates, not friends, not families. I know when I felt that I was learning because I really lvoed that subject, I retain and understnad that materials so much better. When I learn and truly try to understnad the material, which I appreicate what the US system has taught me to, I often do much better and therefore feel happier.
What is happiness? What is your definition of excellence- isnt that by itself a man-made construct too? What is competition? Is there always an absolute adaptation?
Probably the meaning of life is again, to pursue happiness. Recently I discovered that I might just fall intoo the high risk spectrum for depression because I have simply such bad negative cognitive triad and pessimistic explanatory. (For an explanation for these concepts proposed by the psychologist Aaron Beck, click here). Because I felt liek the whole of last wweek, when unhappy things started hitting me one after another and on and on, I could't even fight back. It was after a whole week of trying to think it out straight and faced in the impending pressure of having to prepare for my finals, that I literally forced myself out of it. But for now, I won't say I feel happiness ( for that would be totally manic to feel intense happiness right out of a depressive period), but I can feel myself, I can feel my friends and I got back my cognitive abilities. I woudl say...I feel like I'm alive.
Im just really thankful for all those people who hung on to me, encouraged me, talked to me and brightened up by days just by checking on me. I really hope I can be such a strength to my friends if they need it too ( hopefully not). For now, just let me get a little better and soak in this influx of blessings and care:)
P.S. Thanks to all you know who you are:) lovee

12:02 AM
Its getting pretty late, past my bedtime for a sunday. But this weekend just too many things happened and I feel like rambling on for a little. Let me.
I must say the highlight of the weekend-highlight in terms of the overall entertainment, was the Seniors Day Program. It was a well planned, tightly themed to the Infernal Affairs, with at least 4 or 5 self made videos of Jose+10 videos, music videos, picture clips etc, dances and band performances. Looking at all these seniors's performance, does, to some extent make me really jealous why is it that it is hard to get my batch people to be enthusiastic about doing stuff. Its always those few people interested in contributing and helping. I have tried my best too, but I think its one of the few cases where I really just throw in my towel from the exhaustion of swimming against the tide.
I dont know if its a blessing or a curse that I am graduating one semester early, such that I wont get to participate in a seniors day party for my meesiam batch. I dont know if I will miss this bunch, or whether they will even remember me as they are preparing for the seniors day. Highly unlikely it will be anything close to what the XLB batch seniors put together yesterday, stemming from the efforts and sacrifices that they had to make to create a seniors day that is truly theirs. Im placing my bets that meesiams's will be much of a really simple affair. I had a couple of discussions with some of the people in my batch over this issue, and the conclusions were almost ...unanimous.
Saturday was also the first time I got SO drunk that I couldn drive myself home. It was at the Seniors Day's afer party. Well, I had that coming, with no inhibition on the number of drinks that I was downing. As i talked to some friends today, I tried to justify that as the toll from the accumulated amount of stress from this crazy semester coupled with unyielding lab results, the most horrible relationships I ever had in my life and with the impending departure of the seniors from wintry cold Michigan. But in no way, were all these reasons, sufficient for a lack of discipline-trashed-out state on the couch overnight.Really. I am kinda mad at myself for doing that.
This semester I learnt so much. So much more than I think what two years of JC, 6 years of elementary school and 4 years of RGS education has taught me. It is that much. Academically, I have matured so much. I can read super fast now, I swear, I can finish a chapter in an hour. A few days ago i was filing all my materials this semester and it came to my shocking attention that I had read close to 60 academic papers this semester and top of that many other textbooks and writings. Its become those kinda important reading skillls that as you read, you internalize and create a roadmap such that most of the stuff sticks in your head as you finish the book. Its really an amazing feeling. But this wasn't trained, it was forced out of me as I had to deal with just so many pages of readings.
Emotionally I matured so much- I learned to love and I also learnt to hate. I learned to give in as well as to give up. Although I havent learnt to truly let go, but I don't want to blame myself for that because I have shed more than enough tears. I think become more skeptical of peoples' intentions and who are those true friends that I used to think I had. Suffice to say, these are all those "friends" who only buzz you up when they have a favour to ask of you and want your advice on homework. And sadly, friends of these sort seem to be creeping up and infringing on my life more than ever before. Maybe it is just because I have learnt to identify and protect myself from all these people. Its really sort of like I have created an outer protective shield, to which I shield off all intentionally intrusive relationship or friendships. Like how a Bubble-boy creates his own "haven" amidst throngs of external viral or bacteria invasions. I certainly don't know if this is good or bad, but at least, I feel safe for now. I don't think I would be able to let anyone in for a long while.
Mentally I have grown too. I learned to use my mind to rule my heart. I have learned to stay mentally focused for hours. I have learned to really manage my time most wisely this semester. As for friendships, this semester I am glad I made more friends and maintained better ones with those who were deserving of a friendship(again sorry but, my cynical outlook).
If i had to sum up this semester, which is going to be over in three weeks ( WHEE!), its all about
LEARNING to LEARN.
