Lipstick palm

Hello!

Had CCA again on Tuesday. It was really odd, first time I felt so miserable during a dance practice. Totally wavered my decision to stay. I really don't wish to be doing the same old things for the next two years of my life. Also, the lack of lunch (!!) during CCA days which essentially means the lack of basic human rights. But if I leave I don't know where to go. Whatever happened to the window-shopping?? I can't even see the window?!

Anyway today I was thinking about loads of stuff, like questions that intrigued me and all. During LA the essay questions that we had to analyse were totally so.. weird. The question on whether parents should be punished for the crimes that their teenage children commit sparked off thoughts of whether people were born "pure" or not. Then I recalled a question that Ern Chuen was asking everyone last year- whether humans are inherently good.

I remember I thought a lot about that.. but I forgot everything already. LOL.

Then in Bio we learnt that photosynthesis actually caused a phenomenom where anaerobic organisms were wiped out. Because previously when there weren't plants, there was no oxygen in the atmosphere. So the first few species on Earth did not need oxygen. But then plants came about and oxygen were toxic to those species. Only those which mutated could survive.

(Woah crash course ^^)

And then suddenly I thought about why evolution occured and humans were formed. I wondered if the world would have been a much better place without humans. Because essentially since we have a way better ability to communicate than any other species, we spread our networks too wide and sort of dominate Earth? Then we start destroying it unknowingly. There should be a reason why we classify things as "natural" and "man-made". Why do I not hear of like, for example, "fish-made" or "gorilla-made", for that matter?

Because we are smart! But too smart of our own good. So many "man-made" stuffs are destroying to nature. But if we weren't around.. it would have been a different case entirely... But then again maybe some other even more horrible creature (yes I think humans are horrible) may be formed and Earth would be a worse state than now (which would be terribly bad).

Ahh.. nevermind.

Anyway NDP is coming soon! And I too, got a dream for Singapore!

My dream for Singapore is that peace and harmony can be maintained in our country.

Because frankly I'm a little worried. With the rise of globalisation, I'm sure the number of foreigners in our country would increase as well. With such a diverse range of races and nationalities, it may be possible that a lot conflicts may arise due to the differences in cultures.

So I do hope that every Singapore would do his/her part in keeping the racial harmony within our country. Because ultimately, to me, what is most important in a country is peace.

Without peace, the government would find it very hard to implement anything because there is a lack of control and the country would eventually not prosper since it would be in such a chaotic and messy state.

Did that sound really politically correct? LOL but I was really sincere and honest when I thought that. As in, that is really what I want for Singapore.

And today's Chinese and Maths test weren't too bad. More tests coming up!!! Z

I have been listening to this song so much! I'm afraid I might get really sick of it soon, though.

Stay Here Forever - Jewel

I'm laying here dreaming, staring at the ceiling
Wasting the day away
The world's flying by, our window outside
But hey baby that's OK
This feels so right it can't be wrong
So far, as I can see
Where you wanna go, baby, I'll do anything

'Cause if you wanna go, baby let's go
If you wanna rock, I'm ready to roll
And if you wanna slow down
We can slow down together

If you wanna walk, baby let's walk
Have a little kiss, have a little talk
We don't gotta leave at all
We can lay here forever
Stay here forever

If you wanna see that Italian tower leaning
Baby we can leave right now
If that's too far, we can jump in the car
And take a little trip around town
They say that California
Is nice and warm this time of year
Baby, say the word, and we'll just disappear

'Cause if you wanna go, baby let's go
If you wanna rock, I'm ready to roll
And if you wanna slow down
We can slow down together

If you wanna walk, baby let's walk
Have a little kiss, have a little talk
We don't gotta leave at all
We can lay here forever
Stay here forever

Oh, it's a big world for a boy and a girl
Letting go of it all
Holding on to one another
Oh, there's a whole lot of world to discover
Under the covers

So if you wanna go, baby let's go
If you wanna rock, I'm ready to roll
And if you wanna slow down
We can slow down together

If you wanna walk, baby let's walk
Have a little kiss, have a little talk
We don't gotta leave at all
We can lay here forever
Stay here forever

Let's just lay here forever
Stay here forever
