I can't believe this!

Recess is over?!

I can't believe it!

I can't believe that I was having this flu for the WHOLE WEEK?!

And I can't believe I slept like nobody's business this whole week?!

Oh gosh... the work piling up... *breathe in... breathe out*

Stress control needed. >.<

Innocent Question 93

Why is it that only one side of the bread for burgers has sesames?

Mummy Pig says if the bottom bread has sesames, the sesames will all drop off. But when we flip the top bread, the sesames don't drop, right?

Next time when you order a burger, try asking for a double-sided-sesames-coated-burger and see what they say.

Losing appetite

I guess many girls will want to be in my shoes. I've been losing appetite (and thus weight) since school started in August. I still force myself to eat, but I don't really enjoy the food anymore.

Yes, I can still tell if the food is nice (or not). But it doesn't matter.

In fact, I have so little appetite that I dread meeting up with people for lunch/dinner/supper. That will put me in the spot of having to eat.

So yea people, stop asking me to eat. If you're dating me out for lunch/dinner/supper, I wouldn't be there. :X

Ignorance is bliss

It's good to be realistic, but sometimes, when the matter doesn't even concern you, ignorance is bliss.

What do you wish to see?

Referring to this case, the subject in question, Gopalan Nair was sentenced to 3 months in prison. For more, click here.

We learnt in Media Law class defamation and their defences.

I have absolutely no doubt that Justice Belinda Ang Saw Ean's reputation was hurt when Nair commented that she was 'prostituting' herself in court. Of course, he didn't mean it as real prostitution, but any 'right-thinking member of the society' would have linked her with some sort of relationship with the Lees.

So there's defamation, but are there any defences?

Truth? It's almost impossible to determine if what he said was true (or false). But given the legal and political system set up, the basic assumption is that the court will uphold justice and therefore, Nair's comment is fundamentlly false without evidence.

Fair comment? I don't think so. Neither do I think that there's any privilege, both absolute and qualified, in this situation.

Law aside, Nair said he'll appeal and that he had no regrets (although he said he could have "moderated" his language). This particularly, struck me as jarring.

The maximum sentence was a year with a fine. Is three months enough for him? What then do you think should be a sufficient enough punishment, not considering the fact that he is now a US citizen and Singapore might need to maintain healthy relations?

May peace reign over Buddha's head

An ancient 'sleeping Buddha' was found in Afghanistan!

May the love and peace continue to spread far and wide! ^^

Innocent Question 92

If you are to have one child only, will you adopt or will you want your own 'flesh and blood'?

How about when you can have two or more children?
