You should never lie to a girl you are trying to impress, ever. Its probably the dumbest thing to do in an attempt to gain her favour and catch her fancy. If she cannot accept you for who you are and what you do, you probably better off with someone else who truly appreciates you. End of the line. Over and out. P.S. I am so feeeeeeeling this song right now~

I have been wanting to address this issue for quite some time now, I guess now that opportunity presents itself, I should attempt to tackle it. What defines a society? A society is defined by the people that exists in it. And so who defines social norm? A social norm is defined by the values that majority of the people in the society have agreed upon to act by. Any deviation or transgression is frowned upon or may result in a different treatment from the majority. Failure to adhere to these norms may also result in punishment, physically or mentally, exclusion being the most feared in my age group. Or least that is what I feel. And those individuals that have been excluded from the society may eventually group together to form a minority, a cult. Sometimes these groups of minority attract so much attention that they are partially accepted into the society, not as an exclusion, but as a sub-culture, something that people can tolerate, perhaps out of of novelty, curiosity, but not embrac...

《春晓》 　春眠不觉晓， 　处处闻啼鸟。 　夜来风雨声， 　花落知多少。 解释： 春天的夜晚一直甜甜地睡到天亮， 　　醒来时只听见窗外一片鸟鸣啁啾。 　　回想起昨夜好像下过雨又刮过风， 　　庭院石阶上一定铺满缤纷的落花。 不知道从什么时候，又或者是谁先把雨天和思念联想在一起的。 小说，电影，作文里的主角总爱在雨天，不管是滂沱大雨，或细雨的时侯想起往事, 想起快乐的事, 想到悲伤的事. 总而言之, 雨和大脑的牵连不浅. 可能在古时候每当雨天来临时, 人们的活动范围大大缩小, 雨天带来的不便, 反而变成诗人最好活动脑筋的时候. 可以想象, 他们做在古色古香的木桌前, 文房四宝俱全, 房间除了雨点碰触屋檐那 "嘀嗒, 嘀嗒" 的声音之外, 一片宁静. 窗外朦胧一片, 远处鸟儿飞行, 视线偶尔被撑着纸伞的路人阻挡之外, 没有什么了. 看着, 听着, 想着, 各种感受, 酸甜苦辣便涌上心头. 诗人便拿起墨饼, 用着屋檐滴下的雨水磨墨. 手中的毛笔便在墨池(是对的形容吗?) 里来回, 过后跟随心头上的感想在泛黄的宣纸上记下一切感受. 一定就是这样, 人们才会每逢下雨时, 特别会联想事情, 酝酿感情, 想起特别多事情来. 此时此刻，正在下着雨。

Self discipline is the assertion of willpower over more base desires, and is usually understood to be a synonym of self control. It is, to some extent, a substitute for motivation, when one uses reasoning to determine the best course of action that may oppose one's desires. I personally feel that self discipline is one of the most important value a person should have and should cultivate and exercise it on a daily basis. Why? I feel that because while it may not necessary prevent you from thinking about something that you desire, it governs your actions, which counts, because actions affect people to a greater extent. When presented with a situation that guarantees hardship,you obviously want to shun it, you would very much like to take the easier path, saving much trouble, and making yourself feel better, right? But what if you had chosen to face the obstacle, influenced by the strong sense of self discipline instilled into you. The outcome may be that you will have to suffer firs...

You have got to speak your mind, so that I may know exactly how you are feeling, what is happening, and the crux of the problem. So many soured relationships almost always start with one party not being entirely truthful to the other party. But the other party knows and can sense when he/she/or they are being lied to. This then manifests itself from a simple cover up to wavering trust in someone and finally, an emotional gulf in between two parties. Some truth hurts, yes no doubt. But these are better than lousy, half-baked lies that you create out of nothing to cover up what you really feel, right? Well, it is true that some truths may make people feel uncomfortable and awkward, but in time to come, they will feel thankful that at least you were being honest to them. Lies only lead to a downward spiral of negative emotions and outcome. Veritas vos liberabit- The truth will set you free

Recently met up with good buddy N, had a dinner at this new place in Holland V, where the Nutella Milkshake was to die for. But amusingly enough, I felt that the waitresses thought we were gay partners. Which was kind of a novelty for me. Well, we were two guys sharing one soup and exchanging food and drinks. Then came up the topic of perhaps going on a holiday trip after ord, which, by the way, is only 8 months away! He wants to go join some Amazing Race Asia or some sort and is very convinced to include me in his madness...could be because I have a high tendency do wild uninhibited stuffs? haha. I dont know... Myself? I just want to go somewhere far away, for a really long time. Europe maybe? France, Greece, Iceland? Sweden? Poland? Maldives, New Zealand and so on. I really do not wish to wait, if I do not do it by then, I know I'll never have a chance to visit these places again, unless I am super rich or strike toto. You dont really have to look far to see examples of these ...
