Election Day

Alrighty, finally it’s Election Day!!! I’m a proud supporter of Senator Obama. He is young and confident and exudes charisma.
I was really glad to be able to catch about half an hour of the last presidential debate. Sen. Obama spoke with poise and simply by observing how he argued his point across, you would find him irresistibly charming by not just shooting down his opponent but explaining with patience how he would take actions according to his plans.
Take a look at their respective campaigning websites. You will immediately realise a difference. For one, Obama’s web pages are comprehensive and basically not trying to injure his opponent. Secondly, with so many issues to tackle, I felt that he has solutions to most core problems like how a parent would assist their children. There is a distinct difference in how they would like to improve the healthcare services. Finally, the candidate he has chosen to work with is Joe Biden. Great choice. I doubt Governor Sarah Palin would be able to guide America in times of crisis while Joe Biden would possibly be.
I am quite anxious and excited about the outcome. Best of luck to Senator Obama!
Yours faithfully,

Grandfather Lee: YOUR vision, not mine!

Mr Lee (Kuan Yew) is a well-respected figure in my family.  I shall take a picture of the biographies my parents have religiously bought some other day (maybe I should contribute by purchasing Hard Truths just to complete the collection).  Anyone who studied Singapore history would respect him in some way or another.  However, lately grandfather Lee seemed to be revealing his true self and not bothering much about how the current generation thinks about our society. Here is an article from New Nation, an online magazine I read. Former MM Lee Kuan Yew: The Singapore vision is your vision, not my vision. Pam Petite

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Love is Kind

So I went jogging and insisted on continuing even when the heavens gave me clue that it'll pour anytime soon.  It rained and I was drenched.  Since it was getting late, I had to walked on by to get home.  While I was at the traffic junction, a contruction worker sheltered me with his umbrella for a short distance.  I was really touched by his kindness.  Thank you, Lord for showing your love through the people around me.
