40degrees celcius change
i was at rovaniemi and i went to a MacDonald which they called the nothernmost Mc. Although thats not really the point. As i observed those staff working in Mac and other jobs that we so called "lower positions" i spot some difference between them and those in my country. In my place the people that work these jobs are often applied by the elderlies or those who might be not so "perfect". however in northern EU i see people who is as normal as anyone else working in these roles. it came to me that the people take these jobs as jobs, jobs that is no different from any other just different in aspect. how innocently true is that! there's no jobs that is meant for a particular group of people. Jobs to them are just jobs. you have the right to work in a environment or position where u feel comfortable in and not being despise. Jobs should be open to everyone just like Scandi airline which amazed me with the stewardness on air. They are definitely older than my mum and they are of all sort of sizes round, tall, short you name it they have it. this indeed is a different phenomenon from our local airline with all the staff on plane all slender and covered with a mask of makeups. Mayb to them these is just a jobs that anyone who aspire to take upon is allowed to do so. But the problem here is that we have all been through compulsoy education that equiped us with a certain level of skills and no one is willing to take up those jobs that does not match their level of ability, so it is definitely to tell us people here to give all types of jobs a fair equal view.

Its never easy to have a hedonic life.
Maybe some day you can try thise hairstyle, get nike to pay u.
sometime i just ponder, to how a extent are we manipulated?Global warming, going to MacDonald's or not, legal to walk naked around?, what the fuck really...it seems like we're totally manipulted.or culturalised or we are jus so used to it!
Anyway on the other note, i gonna recommend you people a wonderful US comedy series called "The Big Bang Theory" its on season 3 now and its still never fails to make me laugh!!Its about the story that happens between a normal girl and her nerdies neighbour next door!go check it out!BAZINGA!

Murphy's Law
"Anything that can go wrong will go wrong."
It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenious.
Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.
Rule of Accuracy: When working toward the solution of a problem, it always helps if you know the answer.Corollary: Provided, of course, that you know there is a problem.
Nothing is as easy as it looks.
Everything takes longer than you think.
Everything takes longer than it takes.
If anything simply cannot go wrong, it will anyway.
Whenever you set out to do something, something else must be done first.
Every solution breeds new problems.
no matter how perfect things are made to appear, Murphy's law will take effect and screw it up.
You cannot successfully determine beforehand which side of the bread to butter.
The chance of the buttered side of the bread falling face down is directly proportional to the cost of the carpet.

Can we rely on science and technology to solve our environmental problems?
Yes- Science and technology can promote sustainability by inventing alternative energy
No- Alternative energy might produce another set of problems which leads to further environmental pollution.
Yes- Technology such as mass media allows higher publicity
No- To solve environment problem requires individual, national efforts to promote and execute
Mother Earth is sick and this is of no doubt. From former US Vice-President Al Gores documentary film "An Inconvenient Truth", we saw the truth behind our fast growing, developing World. The increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and the rising global temperature are all human-caused due to our multiplying consumption and production level which is at the expense of our environment. However, we did not grow with environment degradation ceteris paribus. With development our knowledge in science and technology escalate as well, and by relying on it, there is hope in solving our environmetal problems. Nevertheless, environmental problems requires much more efforts and initiatives to be solved.
We are able to rely on science and technology because from it we are able to invent alternative energy which is a solution for enviromental problems. Deforestation, globalwarming, air pollution are example of the problems our environmet faces and such ramification are largely human-caused. In the past due to focus on economic growth and living standard we have neglected the impact of our actions on Earth. Therefore only when people are economically stable and have a suitable living standard, we then realise the damage we have incurred on the environment. By using science and technology we can identifiy the causes of pollutions and rectify it using advanced technologies. Through science we are able to have a clearer picture of what damage are incurred and even statistical reports which brings wider acknowledgments from the public. After recognising the existing problems, we can then apply technology to investigate and invent neccessary tools to tackle against the problems. To reduce extraction of fossil fuels for energy which is one of the main environmental problem, inventors have use science and technology to introduce alternative energy such as solar energy and wind power which is deemed to be clean and renewable. Being the largest solar plants in the world, Solar Energy Generating System(SEGS) in Mojave Desert in America will be producing 553MW of solar thermal power when fully operational in 2011. With increasing operation of solar and other renewable energy plants around the World, our reliance of extraction of natural fossil fuels will decline over the years. Therefore, we will be able to mitigate the problems our environment is facing now.
However, science and technology might create further environment pollution in its effort to solve the problems. By considering alternative energy, we have assumed that such alternatives does not results in further problems. In fact, if solutions to the problems are not well planned and organised, the solutions can lead to further degradation of our environment. Nuclear power is a hot topic recently not only because it is a sustainable energy, but also the operation of producing nuclear power can lead to further damage. After production of power through nuclear reaction on uranium, the production will produce waste that emits radioactive substances that will affect human's health and causes cancer. Rated as the worse nuclear reactor accident, the Chernobyl disaster results in death and health problems of locals even until today. Although we can benefit from the derivation of nuclear power through science and technology, if the operation is not carried out in a organised and safe order, our environment could be at risk.
Nevertheless, organisations and policies are implented to ensure safety and sustainabilty is of concern. To ensure that countries with nuclear power plant protect the interest of the environment and the public's safety, the United Nations established the International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) to ensure peaceful usage of nuclear energy and inhibit using it for military purpose.Around the world, individual countries have also nuclear energy policy to keep gaurd the operation of production and the nuclear fuel cycle. Such policies ensure proper disposal of the radioactive waste after the production of nuclear power. Hence, relying on science and technology can solve our environmetal problems since it is effective in reducing pollution and also risk of alternatives.

People look sadder now, people look happier in the past
There was this article i read around one years ago that reported this Polish guy, he went into coma and was unconcious for 19years(its really miracle that he woke up). Before he went coma Poland was still a communist country but now he woke up in a democratic capitalist nation. Frankly speaking it must felt terrible and extremely difficult to adapt, its really like slping for 19years and you wake up knowing some of your relatives has passed away, seeing your parents looking so much older than you can recall, walking on a totally different road to the same home, its urbanisation i should say. Nevertheless, something i earned from this article was something he said, it roughly goes like this, "people now are always with a sulky face and with a cell phone always at their ears." This sounds like a rather truthful statement because how often can you exclude a person 19years from world and bring him back to observe the difference. Therefore this thought of modern people looking sadder, feeling more unhappy struck me. But why?aren't you richer than your grandmother's generation, aren't you healthier than 曹操?Is development taking place at the expense of our happiness? To a large extent i really does feel so. The competition we are put in are so tough, nevermind if we're forced or willing to to earn more. You have to compete more in terms of mentally. there are so many things in your mind compared to just 衣食住行(food clothes shelter transport) in the oldern days. You fear, fear of terrorist attack, fear of nuclear missile, fear of retrenchment, you fear everything. Your mind just keeps working because you just cannot stay at rest, and time after time as the mind gets wear out, you feel unhappy, stress, tired and in the worse case, go mad.How sad is it:(Is it possible to just lead a simple life that we just demand for our basic daily necessities?i doubt so, we're developed and aim to grow more, nobody will wants to demote in this competitive World.How often can we see fun and loving music videos like the above one now?We are surrounded by sex,drug,violence,melancholy genre of media, its just so negative!

Thinking of what to write...
Mayb after receiving my horrible essay result i got a real shock, the heartless critic, the simply unsympathetic lowlow marks just bring my heart to 5secs of pause and sharp brake to my flow of thoughts which have not seems to be recovered yet. I don't get to see things the way i did, the way i thought about them the way i analyse them. For me this is unbearable, i need to stop this horrible state!thats why i have not wrote for so long, this is bad for my blog:(
