I Can't Believe Shuffle Is So Coincidental

Somewhere out there,
Beneath the pale blue night,
Someone's thinking of me,
And loving me tonight.

Somewhere out there,
Someone's saying a prayer,
Then we'll find one another,
In that big somewhere out there.

And even though I know how very far apart we are,
It helps to think we might be wishing
On the same bright star, A
nd when the night will start to sing
A lonesome lullaby,
It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the
Same big sky.

Somewhere out there,
If love can see us through,
Then, we'll be together,
Somewhere out there,
out where dreams,
come true.

Cruel

With all the current situations happening, I had a strange feeling. It was like a nightmare and I wanted to wake up, but I couldn't, because I was already awake. It was an incredible disappointment. Life can be really cruel...

Why not do something nice today?

Yea...Why not?

What do I like about doing nice things? Well...I like it when I do something nice for someone, perhaps maybe as little as donating 50 cents to charity or something like doing community work for an association...Why?

I like to bring happiness to people. I like it when I see a smile on the faces of people I have helped. Yea that alone is rewarding to me. The joy of bringing joy to others...Who says you cant have your cake and eat it? Heheh...

People tend not to do nice things cos they feel its a hassle or maybe that its inconvenient to go help someone. Or maybe cos they stand to lose rather than gain...

But...if only people actually see the joy of bringing joy to others...I think the little bit of inconvenience (isit really that inconvenient) would be just a small thing as compared to the rewarding smile you receive from someone you help in the end:D

Haha and wats there to lose? Maybe you lose some time (No I don't think it's a waste of time!)...maybe you lose materialistic stuff (donating)...But every time you do that, it makes someone happier and it gets you a step closer towards moral enlightenment...

So yea, maybe you can even start by staying up to encourage your friend on as he/she completes her assignments...Something as little as that can really go a long way:D

So you ask, when should I start? Well...now's a good time! Why not start today!

Note to Readers

This blog will still run no matter what happens.

If you are mentally able to manage major setbacks in life and able to take a step forward, you will get stronger.

A old chinese saying went "Failure is the mother of success"

Basically I disagree, for the only failure is when you have totally given up. Perhaps "Setbacks are the mother of success" will be more accurate.

Yep...This blog will still run.

Roots Revisited

Remember the post on http://maturemrna.blogspot.com/2008/05/roots-in-mathematics-root-or-zero-of.html

I hope I did not outgrow my roots...

It's time to re root!

Race against Racism

Do pledge your support here along with the FIA's Racing against Racism campaign. http://www.everyrace.net/

Basically, allow me to quote my idol Felipe Massa from http://www.formula1.com/news/headlines/2008/4/7671.html:
“The whole Formula One community should get behind this campaign. Formula One is a global sport and we should use it to promote equality wherever we can.”
Felipe Massa, Ferrari

Ok I guess I may be a little late in posting this (I did pledge my support to this campaign since it started on 24th April, so technically I'm not late), but better late than never!

Being an F1 fan, I see myself as part of the Formula One community too. In my opinion, we don't need a campaign before we can start racing against racism! This can be applied in our lives as well. Since I started school, I've been working with people from all races. We are here to enjoy life and learn to the best of our ability and prejudice and racism will never be a factor in that. In the Thailand Jamboree I went on, I had the unique once in a lifetime opportunity to meet up with scouts from other nations and learn about peoples' cultures. I throughly enjoyed myself then, and I feel that Jamborees are sort of "mini racing against racism" campaigns as well! (So you could say I've been part of my own racing against racism since 2005!)

There may be people who do not support this campaign, which is sad because we are all human afterall. Nothing differentiates us. We may speak different tongues and believe in different things but our goals are mainly the same - Peace on Earth and existing together in harmony!

Yep so thats about it. Though racism in itself is a vague issue, I have and will support my anti racism stance. Kudos to the FIA for their Racing Against Racism campaign!

Life

Must go on despite difficulties...

Thank God for the break given to me. 3 day break. Good time to close up any gaps and misunderstandings in schoolwork.
