there only seems to be a piece of news that people talk about these days - the sex scandal that has apparently rocked this continent. i dont see what's the big deal really. people are calling him pervertic, sick and all. chances are these people are happily downloading the pictures by the hundreds.

anyway, i digress. just finished reading jodi picoult's 19 minutes and the scary thing about the book is that i can actually empathise with all 3 groups that picoult seeks to represent: the killer - the one who gets poked fun at for being slightly different; the one who puts on layers and layers of mask to fit in; the one who laughs at others, who pokes fun at others because when others laugh at someone else, they stop laughing at you. perhaps at the end of the day, we are primates. and it is in us all to do what we believe will help us survive. what's also scary, is that there is yet again another shooting in us and once again, the shooter killed himself and has to let the media piece together a spectacular story that they want us to believe. or they feel will make them the most money.

ok enough of this attempt at an intellectual entry. cny break was great hurray. big sis came back with 30kg worth of food - i think she's crazy but i am not complaining haha. it's good to have her back i suppose haha. although the house is undoubtedly noisier now. had friends over during the cny break and am shocked to have found out that the new r j principal had plans to remove all the school crests from the college. like EXCUSE ME? thank goodness the staff had enough sense to veto her decision. what was that woman thinking? - it's a school not a culture? of course this is what THEY told me and couldnt be unreliable, but we are all suckers for sensational stories that allow us to cry foul, arent we?

the past week was tiring though. i hate running but i keep doing it. haha. and i am enjoying grey's anatomy more and more (ok this has no link with the week being tiring - just though no details had to be given wrt to a tiring week haha). although i suspect it is making me more drama cos i really like the dialogue. haha.

since it is still within the 15 days of cny. happy cny ladies and gentlemen. and a belated valentine's day.
