			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;The harder you plan, the harder destiny hits you.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anyways, so personally I never thought I would ever get a blog. But here goes, unexpected things happen :p Let&#8217;s take a second to ponder then why I decided to start a blog. Is it because I want to lament about my life and want everyone to hear about it? or is it because I want I want to say things about people and things that a civilised etiquette wouldn&#8217;t normally allow?</p>
<p>Second&#8217;s over. Well, your partly correct but moreover I decided to do this because of one conversation that i overheard between two guys. First, let me introduce you to the backdrop. We were being shown this documentary by Al Gore on global warming called &#8220;An Inconvenient Truth&#8221; in the auditorium (It&#8217;s really good &#8211; watch it if you have the time). So about halfway through the thing, this dialogue occurred between two Chinese guys (no offence guys).</p>
<blockquote><p>Guy1: eh.. this thing so long sia.. they make it as we&#8217;re gonna die tomorrow la..</p>
<p>Guy2: aiya.. it is important want.. at least can miss the stupid bio lecture.</p>
<p>Guy1: oh yeah..</p>
<p>Guy2: you know what i think.. they say that Americans contribute maximum to global warming right.. (with a serious face) so that why terrorists are good.. they kill Americans.. that way global warming decreases..</p>
<p>Guy1: sia la.. i never thought of it that way.. i agree man.. the terrorists themselves do not cause any pollution..</p>
<p>(This is the original speech of the conversation. Any words that you do not understand are in singlish, ignore them and your life will be much easier.)</p></blockquote>
<p>Incredible! By now I had lost all interest in Al Gores rambling about how everyone&#8217;s doomed unless we change and was mesmerised by this conversation. It went on to more and greater ideas &#8211; even to the height of destroying the humankind and rebuilding ourselves from scratch. But I think you get the general idea. I was so sardonically impressed by their intellectual conversation, that I decided to start a blog to share the ideas of these great people with you. Enough of this. Let me introduce myself.</p>
<p>I am an average Victorian living alone in a hostel. Why? A simple reason &#8211; its not everyday you get paid to study <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  I love hanging out with friends, my laptop and most of all, thinking. I could spend hours thinking about anything, may seem weird, but that&#8217;s what I love doing &#8211; this blog is going to be filled with my thoughts which may sometimes range from nonsensical to complete gibberish. And just one more thing about me &#8211; I hate people who give advice they can&#8217;t take and people who stick their extra large, smelly noses into places where they don&#8217;t belong.</p>
<p>Currently, even watching you hair grow may seem more interesting than my life. All I can do or have to do is study because I got my prelims soon (normally it wouldn&#8217;t matter &#8211; but if I don&#8217;t do well I won&#8217;t be paid to study anymore *boo* and would be sent back to where I belong *hopefully*.) Another question &#8211; If my prelims start next week why am I sitting and typing this blog which nobody really cares about? It is because I need a break (actually my books &#8211; I got stuck on one problem and ended up nearly throwing the book out of the window.) So I suggest that if you want an idea of how I really like to live my life, come back after November 5th &#8211; the end of my exams *wooohooo* and you&#8217;ll be shocked by the change.</p>
<p>Anyways, you have come the end of my first post ever. If you are still shocked by that conversation, a good night&#8217;s sleep should cure it. But if you are impressed their word, kindly call the police, put yourself in a straightjacket immediately and when the authorities come, request to be sent to the farside of Pluto as soon as possible. For the rest of you, comment if you wish.</p>
<p>Cheers..</p>
