The Greatest Show on Earth: The third side of the story
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2010/07/third-side-of-story.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Thursday, July 29, 2010. The third side of the story. How did our relationship boil down to this situation? That, will be another story for another day. Today's story is about understanding my father, more accurately, his pedagogy style in teaching children and loved ones. Also, about seeing in my own eyes the very things I failed to trust before. All this just because of a different vantage point. It certainly made my usually unaffected ...

The Greatest Show on Earth: November 2009
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Saturday, November 21, 2009. A long and expensive Saturday. Furthermore, I had to buy a 4.20 pounds return train ticket to Birmingham. Arrgghh. Nothing can quite described how I felt there and then. Nothing. Life was toughest then, really. I decided I would just return back to university by myself. Took bus back, transiting at the main bus station (that cost 2.70 pounds). Stay in university and don't go out. Thursday, November 12, 2009.

The Greatest Show on Earth: I am still a child
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2010/08/i-am-still-child.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Wednesday, August 18, 2010. I am still a child. If you think that leaving your family and home for a land thousand of miles away will lead to you grow, sometimes, it can be so wrong. What is the defining difference between this two "homes"? I am still a child. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Magic is practice. It's training and experimenting, while pushing through the pain to be the best I can be." David Blaine, TEDMED 2009.

The Greatest Show on Earth: May 2011
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Probably no one comes here anymore. But I hope you still do. I don't fully understand my own emotions well, let alone being able to express or act upon it. Hence, at the end of the day, ignorance is the safest answer. But also the potential to hurt is a lot less too. I do not know what to do about it or even what to feel about it. Unsurprisingly, my first reaction is to be pessimistic, feign ignorance and pretend ...

The Greatest Show on Earth: 30 Aug is special
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2010/08/30-aug-is-special.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Monday, August 30, 2010. 30 Aug is special. Thus, it must be surprising to find that she is celebrating her 60th birthday. Well, it was for me. My mom is sixty. Isn't people who are sixty your grandparents and not your parents? Aren't sixty year olds suppose to be living the "slow" life, winding down? My mom is a remarkable woman. From what I have been told, my mom have been a bookworm since young (scary! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Greatest Show on Earth: December 2009
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Tuesday, December 15, 2009. The Horror that is DOTA. It all started last Thursday when everyone declared "holiday". Out came the computers into one of our kitchens. I only got to play on the last day as. 1 Mine's a Mac. 2 I did not believe that DOTA could bring such fun into a person's life. 3 I kinda had better things to do (finishing my seminar work for the next day. In the end, I went to class without any sleep! From next Friday (18/12...

The Greatest Show on Earth: Sticking out like a sore thumb
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2010/08/sticking-out-like-sore-thumb.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Monday, August 30, 2010. Sticking out like a sore thumb. At 0830, I arrived at the National Library Building in the middle of town. I followed my sister in her car to her office, which was near the library. Thus, I am here THIS early. But apparently, 0830 is not early at all for some of the Singapore students in the library, even if the study lounge opens at 0900 and the libraries at 1000. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Greatest Show on Earth: June 2010
http://samantha-chin.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
The Greatest Show on Earth. Life is one big show. This is my show. Friday, June 4, 2010. What a shame (again). Although this time, it is more so than any previous times, considering I am almost a third way done with this milestone called university life. (what? None of us could think of anything. Dated this post to be published again on 4 October 2010, which is the first day of my second year. Hmm Will it work, future-me? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
