Sups at Ice Cube with my supper buddy before he flies off to Taiwan! Yum. Today flew by so fast. Woke up at 12, watched Ratatouille on Disney Channel, then watched a couple of videos on Youtube and then night fell already.

One of the videos I watched was Zeitgeist, and it really impacted me alot. Highly recommended guys. Set aside an hour to watch it, it's worth it (Watch Part 5 onwards, I think Part 1-3's not as good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5pz1ZW59Ys&feature=related ) Definitely not everything in the video is true, but one thing for sure is that today's youths are slowly becoming so consumed by entertainment and mass culture that we don't think or question enough. All we care about is what's popular, what's cool, what'll make us successful etc. It's so dangerous because we're increasingly becoming a society of people brainwashed by popular culture. Watch the video! Don't take it as the truth but it will help you gain a new perspective on things. There's more going on in the world out there and it's time to stop being so preoccupied with our work/studies/play and start noticing it.

As soon as I get the time, I'm gonna borrow Brave New World and 1984. Hopefully during term break because once school starts again I'll won't be able to afford the time to read. It's so sad that I can only read one or two storybooks a year now. In secondary school I used to read a book every week. Haha yes I was/(wish I still had the time to be) a bookworm!
