Hey everyone! it seems like a long time since I've posted on this blog. Maybe because it IS a long time. =="

Anyway.School has been so stupid nowadays. Do I go to school just to learn about how to make a stupid Sky bag to sell to consumers, therefore increasing revenue, therefore increasing profit? Do I go to school to learn about the sex poetry that old men in the 17th century wrote to their mistresses? I think not. Even if we learn where the points intersect on the circle using proofs or the wavelength of a gamma ray, we still wouldn't know how to survive in life in 10, 20 years time when we're calculating our electricity bill or figuring out how much money we can save buy buying groceries from ALDI.

Take this certain person for example. She's 30-something, migrated here but took her mum with her to cook and clean with her. When she couldn't find a job except for those laboury MacDonalds jobs, she said it was too TIRING! What. At least you're making money. When my dad came here with just a suitcase, he did washing up for like, $1/hr. And he still managed to become successful (in a way I guess.. >< ) and my mum who used to live in a cave.. xDD And my dad's Viet patient who was a refugee with $5, no English skills and nowhere to live. Guess what he is now? Some boss of this big company.

At Youth Group when we were doing skits on the patron saints of World Youth Day, my group was doing one on St Maria Goretti. When she was 11, her neighbour went to rape her but she told him that it was a sin and God wouldn't want it. He stabbed her 14 times and left her to die. Before she died, she forgave the rapist and prayed for him to be able to go to Heaven with her.

Reflect on the story.

Back to a lighter note. My hairdresser (who is also my maths tutor's wife who is also my mum's patient) says my hair's being damaged from tying it up too much. Eep~ My brother is getting more annoying by the day especially since he went to high school and learnt all this swearing. I need to do VD. I need to sleep.

Okay, is this long enough for everyone? It certainly enough for me.
