The centrepoint of political reviews - "To err is human, to forgive is against school policy". Sunday, March 28, 2010. Lion's Home Visit March 2010. However, my juvenile presumptions amazingly changed through a short 2 hour visit to an old folks home, a CIP activity organized by our school aimed to help us understand these people better, and learn how to interact with others that lived in a drastically different environment form ours - an environment without family and loved ones. I started in Chinese "H...

Youth are spending more time with nearly every form of media than ever, according to a report released Wednesday by the Kaiser Family Foundation. They spend more hours on the computer, in front of television, playing video games, texting and listening to music than an adult spends full-time at work.

The centrepoint of political reviews - "To err is human, to forgive is against school policy". Monday, December 20, 2010. Why China kicked Google out. Today's China is definitely not a true blue communist country, nor is it a democratic country, but one day, with more Chinese being western-educated, and with the world being increasingly globalized, it would have to path its way to democracy, or part-democracy. If the central government does not solve these problems before releasing democratic powers to t...

How high is your IQ? What school do you attend? However, research has found out that intelligence is not just about IQ, instead consider these questions instead: What are you smart in?

The centrepoint of political reviews - "To err is human, to forgive is against school policy". Tuesday, August 31, 2010. You can be an unemployed NS man, and continue to be unemployed for another ten years of your life, but be assured that you will have $10, 000 waiting for you in your CPF. That is the government's promise to citizens with effect to today. On surface level, it may only seem like a token policy but in fact, there is a deeper meaning to this "award". Personally, I feel that as citizens, we...

The centrepoint of political reviews - "To err is human, to forgive is against school policy". Monday, November 30, 2009. The difficulty level is not an issue to students turning off Chinese. According to my experience as Primary School students, I suspect the main factor is that the teachers who are teaching the kids are too old-fashioned and cannot appeal to the students at their level. This reveals that kids nowadays (sadly including me) are more and more spoilt by their parents and demand more. T...

Few months since I posted. this time its about a trip to Kampong Glam to do some community involvement work. The trip was quite meaningful and I think some of my experiences there are worth sharing.

Besides unhappiness amongst the public, it seems that local companies are also angry at the new raise in retirement age. Although in my last post, we have established the conclusion that it is necessary for the old to work, so as to balance out the working : non-working ratio, it is also vital to take a closer, more down-to-Earth look at the older section ...
