satire

i dun even know how to spell that high-brow word but if you are reading this, you get what it supposed to mean..

quoting a friend who says that blogs are for fags. it seems indeed that it's not dignified for a grown-up man to be whining to no avail but should be rightful in his fight and pursue for ideals. which leads to many exciting blogs we see online.

mr brown is well known by all for his guts and opinions made public. however, it was much a concern for garmen (quoting rockson.blogspoot, which incidentally is another opinionated blog) that one person's opinion made public may influence and sway innocents minds to a skewed perspective. maybe i can justify which a theory i have learnt in school, NUS, the self-proclaim world class university, that sometimes when a person is confused, another person's interpretation could hav given him the convenient platform to board and assume his thoughts. so maybe the garmen's concern is not unfounded.

then it goes to people who gives insightful writings about religion. it's especially to gain appluase from general public when you are writing from a "objective" view and commenting on the religions which are, in the eyes of many, causing trouble. the clever and wise (if you think they are) people seemed to hav objectively found the root problems of conflicting interests. as what my DM in sch school hav said, 宗教是用来谋人类的福利的， 不是吗？历史上有的是君王用宗教和思想来控制人们。千万不要反过来被宗教控制。however is it true? it's a matter of your worldview. (if little ark pple are reading, wonder if you can relate to your lessons)

does it only takes famous bloggers to give satire and remarks about situations? nope. there are natural writers who engaged people to keep up with their blog entries becos of their views on things happening around, e.g. hall. and that is what SHAM set forth to do. to be a voice for shearites. www.sheares.nus.edu.sg/shamnet to be a voice to speak about things unsaid. good intention but i guess more gutsy opinions are needed.

things have been said about life in hall bout no one has said much about JCRC. isnt' that what sham is supposed to do? people hav been talking about the order of comms opening is wrecking plans of year ones who tries to accumulate enough points to stay for next year. seniors do comment that publicity is up by a notch this year. and all these are left talking in the rooms only.. sham sham. live up your name.

till now, i have failed to achieve my aim. that is to write about things and comment about happenings. reason for failing? i am not aware of what's going on. i am stucked with things i am not very interested at this moment and yet not engaging myself in things that really interests me. a frog in the well i am becoming.
