if you look at my side navigation carefully
i have added a few links to "MY READS"
wat i read durin my free time..
and they are good stuff..
TAKE MY WORD FOR IT

the first THREE
"yawning bread"
"Mr Wang"
"Dr Huang"

are commentary websites which usually touched on topics close to home ie SINGAPORE..
the style and depictions by author of Yawning Bread might be alittle bias .. esp towards the attitude and treatment of homosexuals in singapore
he is PRO_GAY movement and is ernestly fightin for the rights of them in singapore. But still he offers very detailed views on some of the topics in singapore
for most of this topics, there are very details explanations and useful links to the causes and the effects of the various topics

the second, "Mr WAng", is a lawyer who blogs about the current affairs from the viewpoint as a citizen and parent..

the third is a reader of "Mr Wang" but nonetheless passionate about the affairs of singapore..

my current read

Singapore Education System: On the right track?
exploring the various attempts by the government to "improve" and "strenthen" the educational system

the education system had been too restricted and limited..
talents were recognised as those who were good in MATHS OR SCIENCE..
glad that the government decided to change it and widen it to various aspects..

good for those who are not academically inclined..

have a friend who wasnt strong in "MATHS n Science" but she excel in music and languages but during our time, there wasnt any emphasis in such aspects and she had to follow along the "education path" that the governement had laid out.

Now i wish her success in her passion for music
heh
i remembered i was so shocked to hear that she stopped piano for years then jumped 4 grades when she decide to continue
i applaud her
there's a will there's a way
time is not a factor ..

if u are passionate abt somethin BESIDE "MATHS n Science"
hope u find the calling soon
and fulfill it
