November:

 创意如何减少垃圾 each festival we relish, leaves mountains of litter. 

Change. Work, think, solve, repeat.



Different spices from different cultures. Kopitiam curry meets fujian noodle 

Cumin cardamom caraway 

We live in a bowl filled with spices.


3 kinds of spices

Aromatic spice

Add layer aroma, help aroma, deflate 辛味


Personalities in each spices. Multiple roles, following different cultures and recipes to shapeshifter its purpose but it still has its base, 


pulling in all flavour, into a heat explosion, understand their temper and delivery, their religion, their thousands of faces in each logic of language, speak life 


Grab its tongue of tradition and pull out creation. 拆解 组合 创作 I cannot forget my roots.


When you see me in a bad state, just know that it is when I am feeling really really painful inside. 

But you don’t have to say anything, no. regelated

All you need to do is to hug mom tightly.

As I finished speaking, my daughter came and hugged my tightly.

And my tears flowed.


Everyday I wake, I have one more day to live

I have one less day to live.


Darkness pries apart your lips and teeth, forcing himself into your mouth. He is cold, dirty, oily, and he swallows you inside out.

I open my mouth and Light pools in, its curling heat filling me whole. 

A painfully pure clarity clears my head, and my hidden cracks shine.




short story on determinism, and a false hope that is no more than a trapping in the end


when i was young, my father asked me if i thought the world was fair. I said no. he said why not? I said, if the world is fair, 



Who do you want to marry when you grow up? Dad said. 
I will marry your mother.

Why? asked dad, shocked.

Because I am a fair person.

How is that fair?

Because you married my mother, I will marry your mother. That way, it will be fair.

ABSURDISM, EXISTENTIALISM, FREE WILL, POSTMODERNISM

 After the war, Introduction The first world war threw society into a state of disillusionment, and a fracturing of the staunch belief in morals became prominent, sparking literary advancements that challenged romantic ideals, advocating for a new perception of stability and sensibilities. In the poem Gerontion by T.S. Elliot, the modernist stance of fragmentation and the pursuit of purpose lies in man’s actualization of himself. Meanwhile, Samuel Beckett’s waiting for Godot written in the post-war environment of World War II can be viewed as an attack on modernism, rejecting its ideological claims to legitimise purposeful meaning that interprets the world of Estragon and Vladimir with a Grand Existential Narrative . Nonetheless, both these arguments provide a post-war lens that views life without inherent importance nor singular purpose/essence, resulting in the rise of ‘absurdism’— a search for answers in a world that offers no true answer . In this essay, the aforementioned conc...

7 WAYS for achieving your purpose

 CHOOSE YOUR DIRECTION make use of free will.   Jesus and the blind man. Why does Jesus ask him what he wants when it is obvious he want to see? Choose area (learning, marriage, finance, friendships) of importance to you, and make 3-10 goals. What measurable  and compelling goal is possible? Set the goal, and then you have the direction. Reticular activating system: it helps you find whatever you are focusing on.  E.g. Search for blue items. Okay, how many purple items are there? you don't know. Because you only focus on what you look for. Your brain gets excited and get power the moment it knows what direction it is about to take. Decide  your exact deadline when you will achieve it. Also, ascertain what you want to sacrifice . (time/money/patience/difficult situations) The price will be  "Where there is no vision, people perish"-Solomon  CHOOSE YOUR REASONS Do you have insight to yourself? Be a person of deep water, look deeper. Introspect. What...

Conflating the liberty of freedom and burden of choice, and finding the balance in between

"...the individual ceases to be himself; he adopts entirely the kind of personality offered to him by cultural patterns; and he therefore becomes exactly as all others are and as they expect him to be...The person who gives up his individual self and becomes an automaton, identical with millions of other automatons around him, need not feel alone and anxious any more. But the price he pays, however, is high; it is the loss of his self." -Escape From Freedom by Erich Fromm, first published by Holt, Rineheart and Winston, New York, 1941. http://www.alternativeinsight.com/Escape_from_freedom.html and then comes the question many strive to answer; what do we risk to lose when we are already in an individualised state of mind? Even more, i think. The attraction of the self makes it even harder to conform, whilst the pressure for conformity never ceases—in fact the pressure exponentially increases—staring you down through that bright screen all day and for most of the night.
