Haha. I took Mo's advice and now everyone and anyone can leave comments! Yay. But I got a guestbook anyway.

Oh look at Mo's comment! She was wondering where does all the stuff go since black holes doesn't seem to have depths. But then even if black holes have depths the stuff can't possibly stay in there cos then it won't be a vacuum anymore and it will stop sucking in stuff. And I suppose the vacuums remain as vacuums right? So the stuff it sucks in just... disappears into thin air. There wasn't even air to begin with. So that means you can't atomise if you get sucked in either right? Cos atoms are still something even though you cant see them and there isn't air for the atoms to integrate into. You know what, there must really be another dimension, and that dimension must have alot of rubbish.

Why does every one think that we can time travel? It doesn't sound logical to me that you can turn time back. Then how come there isn't such technology now? Well anyway if we really can time travel then it'll be so cool! I wonder if we can change stuff while we're time travelling too. Then we can go back in time and fix problems like pollution so Mother Earth wouldn't be in the state it is in now. And we wouldn't have to put in so much effort to cut down carbon dioxide emissions. But then alot of people will lose their jobs.

Oh Mo! I didn't realise that you watched that show too! It was so sad!

Anyway, I was in town with Shunhong on Sunday and this two people approached us to do a survey. It was a Da Vinci Code survey. Haha. Shunhong thought they were doing PW. I thought it was pretty obvious that they were from Church. And they started asking us questions like whether we think the stuff in the book are true and shared some experiences with us cos we weren't Christians. So after that I asked Shunhong whether he will go to Church when he grows up and he said of course and that he will want his children to go to Church too. I asked him why, and he said because his heart tells him to. Quite right huh. I suppose it will be wierd to have been in a methodist school for 10 years and not believe in Christ. But his parents goes to the temple and when you're young you just do whatever your parents do. Oh well he said that actually he should alr be going to church.

Oh, I saw an advertisement on television for NUS Business School. It shows this Caucasian girl who just received a letter saying that she've been accepted to NUS and she and her mom just went SINGAPORE! with absolute joy. Haha. It's kinda corny, cos it just doesn't seem right that Caucasians should think that it's prestigious to come to Singapore and study in NUS. I know NUS is one of the better universities in the world. But all the really REALLY prestigious universities and colleges are in the western countries (the whole world wants to go these uni, not just Asians alone), and Asians always think that western countries are much cooler in terms of their lifestyle and size and all. So you always see Singaporeans go Wow! Yay! when they get to go overseas to further their studies, and the school doesn't necessarily have to be better than NUS. If it is, well, all the more better. But you would think its wierd if Caucasians are so happy to be coming to an Asian country to study, with all the western discrimination against asians and all. I wonder what the advertisement is trying to say. It looks to me like it's silently admitting that Westerners are of a higher class than Asians although the basic idea it's trying to convey is that NUS Business School is very good. Oh the advertisement ended with the mother telling the daughter that there are lots of cute guys in Singapore. -_-.

hellios kiat! I didn't realise you'd moved. Truth is, didnt check much recently cos the frequency you blogged at your last addie was not so much. hahah...so i came here and was quite surprised. (:

haven't seen the advert yet, but sounds rather cheesy. VERY cheesy. as cheesy as the ending of san1 ge4 hao3 ren2. heh.

sometimes its quite difficult to decide whether or not you believe in a certain faith. It's sorta like a matter of the heart, cos you will only integrate your faith into your life when you really believe and indulge yourself in the belief. Sometimes faith in a religion may also waver because of peers and media (like tom cruise and his scientology, oprah and Christianity), like how cool it is to be able to worship in this way, I WANNA SAWP THIS FOR THAT. omg. haha. hm... very hard leh. think exposing myself to more kinds of faiths would be helpful...

The da Vinci Code was quite good. (: ignoring the content la. History and faith is an abyss that kids like us will not be able to uncover at this stage of our life, and if we try to, we can only succeed in becoming more confused. I watched the debate on this book on CNA, because i was being a couchpotato and channel surfing getting fat. CONFUSING LAR. But, very intriguing, and (details are) very gross, hahaha.

I agree with you, that the world is nothing without religion. There already are innumerable unexplainable things in the world. Without Father, or Heavenly King (that covers for Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism) how can miracles and supernatural things be accounted for? I sincerely DO NOT believe that science will be able to explain everything one day. Like what sir said during GP, you will only come up with more theories to disprove theories, all because you've made assumptions in theory making.

The world is beautiful. with and or without politicks. :p
