some of my personal opinion

ok... for those who dont know.. i actually went offline at around 9+ coz i was feeling tired... then i went to watch tv.. and now i am back online again... to blog... coz i have some stuff to sae.. and if i dont sae it now i might forget it later and there goes my thinking...okok call mi dao li wang.......
okok.. i was watching GET REAL and 20/20 on CNA just now.. and the stories behind it made mi feel that sometimes ppl are focusing on the less important stuff......Get real was talking about abandoned senior citizens and 20/20 was telling the story of oprah winfrey and her work in africa.
Get Real.. they were talking about senior citizens who were abandoned by their children coz their kids have work and they are all alone now.. old.. and have to support themselves... so.. y is the children treating them this way... most of the time.. the answer is that its the parents upbringing that caused the children to think this way. From an interviewee... she said that when her children was young, the 1 thing that she focused on was her childrens education. And coz there was so much emphasis on the education, family morale wasnt taught, and this caused her to lose her children when they got older.
To tell the truth, i feel that my family is undergoing this situation. We very seldom have family outings and once we get home, my dad will go to his computer, mum will do her stuff, sister will go to her room and i to mine... little time is spent together.. but there is still a bond there, and i will keep it there.
Though education is important.. i personally feel that the important part is not about getting a cert so that you can find a job so that your life ahead is great. The actual important reason is so that you know what is gg on around u, know what we should not do and what we should do. Eg. about AIDS and how we can prevent it. Everyone now is focusing on the rong things in life, is getting a cert that important?..... ppl are realli getting more selfish these days. thinking only about themselves... that getting that cert and losing other things....
Many ppl always sae that we are real lucky to live in the place we live in now... and not to complain about how horrible life is in singapore coz ppl in africa are worst off then us... though i myself complaine about it too.. but i must certainly agree to that sentence. We have all the good things in life that we dont treasure them and worst still, complain about it... having enough is enough..... but its just human nature to want more... but just dont over do it... the children in africa dont even have proper water to drink and enough food to eat.. no roof over their head and no education too.....
Thinking back about all these stuff.. another thing i wan to sae is about song lyrics..... i realli feel that the lyrics in Christina Aguilera's songs are real meaningful... eg.. Beautiful, The Voice Within and Can't hold us down.. Micheal Jackson also have songs that mean something... Black or white, Heal the World... etc.....at least they make sense and ppl should realli think about it... rather then singing some love songs that onli reflect on your feelings at that moment..... y not just make some sense into ur songs that can change a persons thinking in doing a good deed or changing the persons life ... And 1 thing i found out is that alot of mandarin songs actually are meaningless ... to mi.. meaningless as in... it does not change the thinking on ppl's mind about making the world a better place....or maybe someone can name mi a title that can make mi realli change my thinking about the world, i tink zjl has 1... cant remember the title....
These are the songs that i feel will make mi sing it with more feel......unlike those sad love songs that MC is requiring mi to sing ..
okok.. so... actually.. what i want to sae is that its important not to be so selfish, try and help others around you and not forget about morality.... that is because you are living on this earth where there are other human beings with u... so its the same earth isnt it!
