i hope we never be disillusion

Peyton: Are you happy, Brooke?
Brooke: Sometimes. Not always. Are you?
Peyton: No.
Brooke: Okay, then let me ask you something. What is gonna make you happy, Peyton? Is it how you look? Or the car you drive or the people you know? Is it money or celebrity or power or accomplishments? Because I have all those things and I don't think it's enough.
Peyton: Well then, what is?
Brooke: Love, I think. And that love can be for a boy or a girl or a place or a way of life or even for a family. But where you find it is up to you. So where are you gonna find that love, Peyton?

smouldering hot weather

am enjoying my final term in school. probably because the stress period isn't here yet and im basking in the happiness of the upcoming chinese new year. during the 3hr break, its eating and shopping & feeling blessed because.... maggie, yieng & yongbin came down to have lunch with me yesterday & on wednesday jan, liping & i went down to orchard to lunch together with gan ann.

we also visited richard at his BE studio yesterday. first time i've been to a studio & listening to the DJs record their show (*although it is a radio show that maybe 6 people tune in to, most probably ah tiongs too)

there also seem to be hope for a taiwan trip! perhaps perhaps perhaps

material, immaterial

spent a nice day today eating, shopping and then ending it off with a 3hr + long movie about Gandhi back in school.

the newfound shopping place is ....................... CHINATOWN.

i was pleasantly surprise with an entire floor of shopping, good material (even if aunties dont share the same style as you, they sure as hell appreciate better material) and good prices. needless to say, that made me very happy!

The Gandhi film was a to-watch for the leadership module which i am actually glad that it is so since it wouldnt be some movie i'd pick to watch. as the movie started in a flashback and began with the assassination of Gandhi, hx asked why was he assassinated. to my horror, i realized that i didnt really know the details. everyone knew who Gandhi was, but really WHO IS HE, i think there are people, like me, who never quite bothered to find out.

this whole issue of human conflict for religion, for land just presents itself in this movie and makes me wonder why do humans not see things the way this man did. the call for equality, unity and his belief in non-violence. if people could see the way he did, all the wars then and now would be uncalled for.

send the terrorists some dvds please.
