hmm..what makes a terrorist justified in his actions? is it the method? or the cause?
can it be argued that if someone is 'fighting' for a nationalistic cause, say to topple a oppressive regime? then acts of violence and fear inducement is ethically justifiable?
what do you people think? come on..chew on it for awhile..
tiring day.. and still uncompleted readings for tomorrows tut. i guess i can only sleep at 3am tonight.
saw off jiahui's parents who came visiting after shes been here for like 2years plus..well its always nice to see your loved ones..but yet..the emotions evoked when they return? its like a loss again. is it 'worth' the joy and then the pain once they left?
i would say yes! its better to be with them as much as you can rather then just going back once or twice a year for a couple of months.
life is short and appreciating those dear to you now is never too late if you've not done so.
started late like me? well.. its better late then never.
arsenal shall join the semi finalists tonight! 2-0 win at highbury.

after such a long break from studies, the wonderful things SAF does to your intellectual capacities and doing subjects you only heard of.. why not be adventurous eh? well i always wanted to be a psychologist..
dreams and reality... you make the choice and you live by it.
haha guess whom i saw at the grandprix? haha nah..not montoya or kimi..but LEONG KAI EN..haha

okie..so he is not a gay...i saw his gf guys! he is straight afterall..haha
looking around for a new handphone here..since you are paying, might as well get a contract and a new phone too..samsung or sonyericsson? tsk tsk..
had a really interesting lecture this morning..lotsa info about the terrorist groups of the past..like the red army ( Baader Meinhof Group ) and recent wannabes like the PLO and well my personal fave the ASALA..no its not a indian dish..keke..no offence there
its the algerian secret army for the liberation of algeria..wow..i wish there were some radicals in spore..cool stuff i am learning..hmm terrorist in the making? well.. many terrorists originate from the UNis and religious schools that they attend..so haha..well..hmm..eh..
realised there is so much reading to do..man..but once you do your readings..you wouldn't feel so lost..only thing now..how to tackle the beast aka Essays.

cappucino
plan gone wrong..subjects in a mess and still i am not sure of what subjects to do...sheesh..theres only 4 days left..
in a mix up of how i am to settle this..will it be sociology and political sciences or international studies?
gosh..its really confusing..though its good that the uni do not struture your degree so much..but having too much of a choice is not exactly fantastic as well.
i guess in life thats the case eh? lament lament lament..choices and decisions..
yeah! arsenal crushed the pompeys 5-1..whaha..unbeaten still in the EPL as well. i sense a year of greatness for the Gunners!
called grandma earlier on..heez..she was surprised to hear from me and i could sense the joy in her voice from hearing from me..hope her health improves though. its nice to know just a simple call can make someone feel so good. Ever felt like that before?
had a cuppa with meiyin, yaohui and yuwei and micheal before heading home... i miss my beer kakis...argh..dandan..where art thou?
ooh man...lect at 10am..and i still can't sleep..sheesh..too much caffeine..*_*

eggs with onion,roast chicken from the supermart, veggies in oyster sauce and luncheonmeat
its raceday sunday here in melb..darn..Ferrari won..a 1-2 finish too..shucks. worst of all kimi had to crash out. though it was a early start to a nice cold day..i ended up waiting for YH and MY for 2 hours, no thanks to the lovely technological wonder we love to embrace=SMS.haha.oh well..only reinforces my notion that people dun talk to people anymore..soon we will be smsing or emailing our colleagues who just next door/cubicle?
tink not? well... pray tink again?
supertired after the race and damn dungry too..haha explains the wonderful spread for dinner?whaha. sneaked in a little nap before that.
caught a little of moulin rouge during dinner..hmm.. the notion of love swirled around in my head?
hmm .. wat is it? why do couples quarrel over the most trivial things?
is communication between two persons these days a dirty word that on one wishes to mention?
if theres anything that i came out with stronger from my past relationship..hmm its been what? 3years soon?--- its the lesson that communication is the probably the most important aspect that anyone should and could have..
----
my heart seeks to embrace
no one is ever the same
liken a void
yearning to be filled
the loneliness and solitude
how i wish
for it to vanish

chicken pizza and an applejuice
just had an exhausting day..lects, tuts went home for a nap before another tut on terrorism, which is really interesting, considering the topics and discussions that occurred. its def one of my fave subjects now.
hmm as to those on anthropology..really cheem stuff and its gonna require a lot more reading so i cld catch up with the rest of the class.
its really very intimdating and daunting..i been low MIKE and feeling really retarded when i go tuts..i dun seem to have anything to say..makes u feel really shallow and worst... a frog in a well.... all this will change..i hope with time..it better be this way..ahaha

over the weekend yaohui and meiyin wld be here too for the F1 grandprix..so its gonna be an exciting weekend..lotsa catching up to do and definately a morale booster to the already deflated one in anticipation and preparation for the hard work ahead.
wish me luck people..hmm ironman challenge eh..keke...well dun fret edwin..the pain is temporary but glory is forever.. with jaffar around u never noe wat can happen..it was him who led apc to victory over us last year..dun giveup..just prepare some yokoyoko..haha
