Oh yar, I do want to talk about desposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, who has been sentenced to death and was executed today.

No doubt he was a cruel dictator, but given his authority, it was inevitable that he abused his power and ruled Iraq with an iron grip... As the saying goes, absolute power corrupts absolutely. It can also be argued it's due to his totalitarian rule that Iraqi did not face the quagmire of troubles that it is experiencing today. And perhaps it was also his bad luck that Iraq is plentiful with oil, causing the Bush Administration to target him.

The American administration is a very pragmatic one, and of course being the world's sole superpower enables them to coin terms and cook up incidents to suit their political purposes. Like Pinochet of Chile, who was perhaps an even greater dictator, and engaged in various human rights abuse and corruption. But since the American government had given him the mandate to rule, he was awarded the freedom to do whatever he desired.

Moving on to another example. After emerging as victors from the Pacific Theatre of War in WWII, the American administration did not persecute anyone from the Japanese Unit 731, a notorious organization which had engaged in the most atrocious of acts. Why? Because the Americans wanted the results from their bloody experiments.

Double standards perhaps, just goes to show that it's often greed that dictates politics...

Rest in peace Saddam.

imagine this. U are waiting for a bus, all the buses come except the bus you want to take... eg. 157. And u start getting worried. Then suddenly 4 157 come at one shot...

That's exactly what happend with my OG. after waiting for so long, I suddenly got info about my OG all at once... lol?

And the ridiculous thing about OGs is that it's based on academics... like 01 being the best and 12 being the worst... Not really discrediting this system, at least I am more aware of how cmi i am...

Wahh must study in JC liao!!

i shld have studied harder... thanks

Sian... my OGL still haven't called me yet... really starting to get impatient and maybe a tiny wee worried...

Becuz of this i didn't dare to go out in the day... but in the afternoon i was REALLY sian so i went to hang out at West mall. Ate at KFC (i know this is fattening >.<) and was walking around. Nearly bought this shirt which looks pretty nice but looks a bit dull

Wahhh why has EVERYONE gotten a call from their OGL except ME!!

i am getting 1. panicky 2. worried 3. pissed now...
bleargh

Today was a pretty fun day...

Firstly it was sleeping late. Then after a heavenly *beauty* sleep, I went to Jurong Point to meet up with Ali Alwyn and Hong Cheng. Cos they just returned from the spanking new Jurong West Gym (wow...)

Anyway Ali left first cos he apparently got a date with 3 hot babes... ice skating somemore! So we had the super healthy (and tasteless) Subway meal!! With the hunky Alwyn and Hong Cheng.. wahh i really feel inferior next to muscle men ><

Looked around for bags at Jurong Point but the choices are really limited. Really i stress. Eventually we decided to hop down to the city area for more choices...

The crumpler bags were nothing special imo, and incredibly overpriced!! Though Hc bought a nice bag with my advice hehe. The adidas one not bad - nearly bought it but din like the color. Eventually settled on a DC bag xD

School's starting soon... and i haven't gotten a call from my OGL yet!!!
