just a quick post.. had updated some of my earlier posts.. considered tt i didn't have time to finish up my previous NDP post on e issue of emigration.. or rather i don't feel like it.. -.- cos i think to put forth a good argument, or at least a decent one, would require research of which i have no time..

anyway to put it in a nutshell, having travelled to a couple of countries with a rather decent duration in each (at least 1 week? lol), i think singapore is really still the best place to be.. listening to e arguments brought forth by ppl who have contemplated e thought of emigration, i realise tt sometimes they have yet to consider e entirety of factors tt are important.. like security (military or job), presence of natural disasters, tax system, estate issues, native citizens vs 2nd tier citizens (think PR), cultural differences, language differences, cost of living, quality of living, healthcare system, education system, freedom of expression, pension/CPF.. just to name a few.. quite often, only a few of these factors come into play as push factors, without consideration given to e other factors..

had my 304 presentation today.. disappointing would probably sum it up.. seemed tt my part had lacked quite some bit of substance..

well, i think i should start talking about something more uplifting.. lol.. tty and emu were commenting e other time tt my posts were sorta pessimistic.. so let's talk about my all time favourite topic: dreams!

think my lazyness (going back to sleep after a natural waking) has probably cost me to have an uncertain impression of e stuff tt i have dreamt about some days back.. and tt's not really good, considering tt i think i've conducted some important stuff in it.. as a background, there are certain things which lucid dreamers often look out for in their dreams to signal to them tt they are dreaming (these things are called dream signals, if i'm not wrong.. :p) some of these include:

1.yr hands look distorted, twisted.. basically they look weird
2.e clock face looks weird or e time on e clock didn't make sense
3.e light switch won't work

so in e dream tt i was talking about, i think i've done e normalization of 1. ie. to make my hands appear normal instead of weird.. i am less confident however, tt i successfully did e normalization for 2. i think i attempted, but failed.. haiz.. i guess tt would just mean tt i have to try them again in my next dream..

i would think tt e normalization of 3. would be pretty hard to perform.. considering tt i don't remember having experienced darkness/dim lighting conditions in my dreams before.. it'll probably be in e league of e dream dream in it's difficulty level (i hope i'm exaggerating though.. requiring 4 yrs to execute a stunt is not exactly fun)..

just yesterday e conditions were very good for me to take control of my dream but fate was to have my hp alarm wake me up.. darn.. -.-
