Dreams Beyond the Dean's List.

It is always easier to feature the elites, the outstanding, the winners, the scholars, the medalists, the success stories, and the minority, than those of many others, who too, walked through the gates, and graduated with their heads held high as well. If these are considered as sweet dreams, what about yours and mine? @NTU July 2007, Issue 66.

Its the way this society is shaped. See only the "good" things (note the double quotes), choose to ignore the others. And dreams (sweet or not) don't end there.

I suppose you read this issue of @NTU too.

Yea, that commercial is well thought of.

Yea, thanks for the welcome. This country has become abit too warm for my liking these days....

Just to name a few. There were gains and losses. Life's ups and downs. Of me, and those around me. I haven't been doing much deep thinking and thus less writing. Not enough time? That is probably an excuse. But it is true that I have not slept well for quite awhile. It is hard to explain the stress from work, where nothing goes smooth, and every step forward is a hurdle. Technology also had made it simple and addictive for us to mindlessly share. Share our thoughts in bits and pieces. Forming persona of ourselves to acquaintances and friends I hardly meet anymore. I remember experimenting with Tumbler, finding ways to post once, publish everywhere. It didn't quite work out. Even when technology made it is so easy, I have not been diligently editing and uploading photos of my darlin
