I don't know what to blog about. I've spent the last 2 hours studying through my lecture notes, and only in like the last 15minutes did I realise what the whole purpose of the lecture was about. The feeling of being lost is terrible, but after knowing you're lost, then finding your way back is so fulfilling. But also so brain draining. A sad and painful trade-off.
I read a headline in the Singapore news, about managing the side effects of distributing food vouchers. Not the most interesting of headlines, I know, but it caught my eye, because I was studying it in lecture the other day. Very interesting to see what you're studying in real life. Unlike primary or secondary school, where the purpose of study was so hard to put into perspective.
I read a Aussie headline as well, about some kid who got killed in a shark attack in NSW. So sad that things like that should happen, but when you go surfing at 8am, and are the only ones in the sea, you don't really give the shark too many options. It's strange how after an attack like that, a family mourns the lost, and yet specialists in the field try to defend the sharks actions saying things like the attack wasn't with the intention to kill, but possibly just one of curiosity where the shark wanted to find out what it was, and the only way to feel for a shark is through its mouth. How comforting is that supposed to be? The only way to feel is through the mouth.
