Turned Tables

im feeling under the weather....and it's not a very nice feeling even though i overcome the initial throat infection quite fast in just a day. That was considering i ran out of doctors' prescribed lozenges long ago. i was blogging about something half way but got too tired coz i think the issue was a bit the serious. It was just a response to mariah's article on gay guys. Well, the only summary i can give in regards to the AIDs epidemic being largely due to the growing gay population...well....i would say that it's not the only reason.



It's a culmination of different factors and not forgetting that it is due to the popular myth that only gays will get AIDs which lead to the problem being even more massive than before especially among the heterosexuals. It can happen among heterosexuals especially if they switch partners ever so often. SO seriously, there is no point finger pointing right now as to which is the actual cause. Just think about our children who are the innocent victims to our complacency and that they will never have a future over something that they didnt do. Let's just strive to put a stop to the epidemic before it's too late.





As usual, I would say that I may be rather liberal in my thoughts whether over the issue of race or one's sexuality because bottom line is, we're still humans trying to survive every single day and finding the meaning of life. Yes sometimes we tend to think alike or do similar things which easily make people justify us in a broader perspective and it may not be a fair judgment especially if not all of us do that. Whether or not we like it, we get involved in it indirectly. Of course I do get peeved whenever single people like me are being called a potential heartbreaker or worse...a slut...just because we talk to someone else's husband. Like what? Single people can only talk to other single men or women? Who set this rule? But people can say what they want to say...do what they want to do....we just cant shut out society. What to do...we just carry on with our life.


But generally, I think that we should not look down on others just because we dont do those things that they do which we condone. Just think, we dont like it when others stereotype us but we stereotype others? I mean we're all not perfect in the first place and then after writing this, I will stereotype the next person i see. Someone said that there is a racist in all of us so it cant be helped. But that's like saying we lack the ability to think. We can try to not do it so much or think about how it is like if the tables are turned.


So come on, banish those ugly thoughts and we just concentrate on ourselves rather than nitpicking others. I will do the same thing too..coz..well...who knows...i may be guilty of finger pointing too unknowingly.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
