says a friend of mine, "there cant be platonic relationships between a guy and a girl unless there is a certain characteristic in the other party that you find slightly replusive." i shant debate about the truth of that statement.to each his own, really.
but funny how there's always something about the guys i admire that i simultanteously dislike too. it doesnt stop me from liking them more; at times i think it's this very characteristic that makes me even more protective of them.

hmm.i think i can be quite irrational at times. but then again, im merely giving justice to that cliche that "love is blind". so.

when words read a million times over but still never a bore.(unlike my exam notes that are boring me to tears)

every morning an endless battle ensues within me. the gravitational force that's tugging at me back into bed and the equally strong urgency derived from a pile of never ending work that's making me move towards my breakfast drawer. usually the one that requires me to travel the shortest distance ends up victorious. the bed of cos, which goes without saying. unless the force on the other end is simply too great a draw- a growling stomach maybe, but almost all the time, it's about work that's loading as if each piece were under the influence of gravity and the only way it could go is down onto me. sometimes i wish both forces work in the same direction.
so they say the world's first eco-city, Dongtan is all but bad news, being sustainable not only environmentally, but also socially, economically and culturally. im not sure if i will embrace this idea as warmly as i should. after all, being an advocate for out poor environment for the longest time, i should be overjoyed that at last, some sort of concrete action is taking place. still, there's this nagging feeling in me that this eco-city may be just a veiled attempt to get rid of marshes in the region to create more economically viable areas--it's urbanisation all over again, only that it's marketed with the eco label. think about it. it perturbed me when i read today's papers and a minister was quoted saying that Dongtan will be created over wastelands, thus no harm will be caused to the natural environment.first of all, can agricultural land near a large ecologically significant wetland be considered a wasteland? even if we presume that this agricultural land is ...
