Down to my final week of winter break, and what have I achieved? I managed to catch up with friends, had some of my favorite food, planned a surprise for my mum, watched loads of DVD, and read a few books. I guess in a sense, I did all that I planned to do before the holidays began. But it was not enough. I had days spent wasting time, sleeping for long hours. So lesson learnt, next holiday I'm going to plan out a better plan for the holidays.
For those of you who have heard of the famous national blogger Xiao Xue, you should read her latest post. A rather long, and insulting post to several individuals. What has this world come to, for fame, for fortune, people stoop to levels so low, just to eliminate their competition. It's agreed that competition is good, because it improves efficiency, it changes the attitudes and mindsets people have, to want them to strive for more, but at what cost? Does competition make us better people?
