These few days ive been trying to settle myself at home to revise for the upcoming examination. Apart from the revision notes, i read the newspaper, like what i always do in the morning, except that i read almost every, every news article these few days. I even enjoyed reading the classified ads alot. So there are alot of articles which will spur you to lament about. The list is exhaustive. Occasionally i also got upset after reading about the mishaps which are happening anywhere, everyday. Definitely, they are also story which i gloat over with, laugh heavily at. The newspaper is absolutely worth your money. In exchange for 70cents, the papers tell you blow by blow account about the world. I like reading. I had developed a passion for words since some time back. Other than improving the language, you grow. Learn, judge, think and understand. I also garnered one observation which i always assume; life is all about making choices. This sentence does sound familar. Read and heard this alot when i was much younger despite only to learn bout the real underlying agenda when this struck on me naturally.

Utilmately while making a choice, i always try to reason with myself if i want to take this path although theres bound for some things to lose. If man can understand that everybody has their reason for doing things, the world wouldnt be in this chaos. Its a foregone conclusion, since they dont. Learning about all the negatives which will follow strictly behind, i will still decide to go ahead with my decision. In my case, i appreciate when there is understanding for my reasons. As i know, i know the true ones will still stand by me no matter what. This was proven right when being through the darkest hours, these people still lurks around. They never leave. In spite of the misery and failures the darkest hours carries with, i thank god with all my heart when i see through the colours of life. Friends are ones whom you do everything you could to make them shun away from you, yet thet stay. I also dare say i wont reject a man in need. If i could, i'll learn a hand to a far extend. I value transparency in these bonds. I swore that the CME class really gets to my head when i was in primary school. But beginning now, i alter this mindset when i was refused by the ungratefuls. Frank, i was quite antagonised when people turn their backs at you. You share wealth & woes with them, but they never share theirs with you, especially the, wealth part~ Truth are horribly abhorrent, its always good to learn about it earlier. Being a devotee to the god(chinese), im trying to learn and let go. Akin to the many documentary films i've watched. I felt sad to learn about the true side of the life cycle.

I remember i was primary three when i first learn about the life cycle in the science textbook. It was simply interesting to know the fact that the omnivores shouldnt be eliminated from the cycle. They kill and i seriously dislike them who harmed the lovely animals in the past. I wished i could send them to another planet, of course without taking any lives. This was a forlorn hope when science said its impossible.

Watching alot of documenty films is beneficial to widening knowledge about life and science. It made me realise that each and everyone has a special role to play. Did it ever occurred that if everyone receives good proper education and holds a masters university certificate, by then who will sell you 200grams spinach which is required for dinner tonight? There are alot of questions of who will hold these positions which are considered lowly to the many. I asked my sister whos only 10. She told me these tasks will be left for the old age. At only 10, she almost answer my question perfectly.

I thought she might not be able to come with a satisfactory answer. Apparently she did. We always assumed there will be the uncles and aunties to undertake these lowly jobs. As true as it is there always are. Its quite upsetting to know that when people reached old age, your heads begin to abandon you as the new generation rise up to overtake your high-wages position. Along with the aging population, I agreed the lowly jobs vacancy will be filled up if the answer is that the old will be undertaking all these jobs.

As for my earlier perception, i felt that theres always a reason why certain people simply have no interest in studies. Venturing out into other arenas may be their strengths. Lets say by holding a significant position by selling food in the markets, a professional electrical repair man or the mailman who delivers you the bills for the month. I presumed that everyone will be holding a distinct certificate in 10 to 20 years time. Hope by that time, those man will not belittle jobs which doesnt require a certificate.

Back to the life cycle i want to talk about the man's role in the life cycle. Its a undeniable fact that in this world, man's empire will forever remain the strongest compared to the other living organisms. We had the knowledge, technology and weapons. In the wild life film, the scene where the predators prey on its food is often gruesome. I couldnt help but to feel my hair standing. The predators are brutal. They use their sharp fangs/claws to pierce deep into the flesh of the preys. Although the preys are not having their last breath yet, you can see the predators dividing it anxiously by toring them into pieces. As mighty these predators are in the wild, they still couldnt overcome their fear for the man, man's weapon. You see animals submit to the man under the eye of the powerful weapons we held. However the man becomes ultra- vulnerable when they have nothing. Next they replaced the preys as the food to the predators almost instantly. It was from one of the show i catched in the national geographic channels. In a sea of countless great white sharks, the 5 victims can only call out to god to pray that the sharks will fail in their attempts to capsize their small pathetic lifeboat after their sailboat finally settled onto the seabed few hours ago.

It was super exciting and scary watching how 2 of the 5 victims narrating how they spent their 5 doom days on the vast ocean. It was only 2 of them because the 3 had failed the "survival examination" They had to fight with the extreme thirst & hunger under the extreme weathers, that is scotching hot weathers in the day and terribly winter when the night falls. Other than that they had to beware of the hungry predators thats out lying underneath them. I thought they were lucky when the heaven had a short shower on them on the 2nd night. Eventually unable to withstand with the thirst, 2 guys A and B gulped down the sea water frantically on the 3rd midnight. In the afternoon of the 4 consecutive day, the 2 man begin to have hallucinations. I shall save the scientific explanation on why this happens after having lack of water and food in the body when u gulp down large amount of sea water which will lead to further dehydration. So on and forth. Soon after they begin to jump into the sea wanting to swim to their imagined claimed destination in front. Around 10 seconds right after they swam away from the llifeboat, they became the food of the predators who had been lying around since the first day. It was scary, very scary i thought. On the 5th afternoon, due to the deadly infection, a cut 4cm deep into the thigh took one of the girl's life. Throught the show, you can engage yourself deeply with the fear they had during the 5 helpless days they led on the sea. If the large cargo russia ship did not sail pass, we wouldnt have this story told. It was also when i realised with great technologies and such, we couldnt overcome almost everything. But the man still fall, when come face to face with the animals empty-handed. I think we should be leading our lifes happily everyday, at the same time bearing in mind, our thanks for the god and the ancestors.

I knew i will continue to live as a big child. And not to forget, a happy sweet 18 to my dearest brother. Happy Birthday.
