‘Race’ is equivalent to species. Two organisms are classified as different species when they are unable to produce a fertile offspring.

Therefore, there is no such thing as human races. There is only one race, the human race.

Most recent scientific research into DNA shows that the genetic differences between two persons of the ‘same race’ are greater than between two of ‘different races’.

‘Racial characteristics’, i.e. phenotypes (what we can observe) like the color of the eye, skin, or shape of the nose are merely consequences of climate.

In Singapore, race and ethnicity are not distinguished. This implies that our thoughts, behaviors, emotions, i.e. culture, are products of our biological inheritance.

Therefore, if you’re born Chinese, you have to learn Mandarin, you’re supposed to celebrate Chinese New Year, and gambling is in your blood.

“The Bell curve is a fact of life. The blacks on average score 85 percent on IQ and it is accurate, nothing to do with culture. The whites score on average 100. Asians score more…the Bell curve authors put it at least 10 points higher. These are realities that, if you do not accept, will lead to frustration because you will be spending money on wrong assumptions and the results cannot follow. “

--: Lee Kuan Yew, 1982

“A reading of the evidence cited above suggests that Lee has always had an agenda based on the racial and cultural superiority of Singapore's Chinese population.”

--: Michael D. Barr, 1999

我喜欢停在最完美的那一刻，把它封起来，然后悄悄地离开。

谁也拿不走。

它是我的。

请原谅我。

我珍惜，所以我不敢再度碰撞。

相信我。

封起来，它就会是永远的。

像酒一样，越来越漂亮。^^

雨是从天空跳下来的东西。
到了地面，它等候太阳把它吸回天上，变回云。

风会把它吹到别的地方。
等它厌倦了天空，它又会调皮地跳回地球表面。
这样来来回回地重获自由，厌倦自由，放弃自由，等待自由。
跟我一样。

我是从天空跳下来的东西。
到了地面，等候着太阳把我吸回天上，变回云。
风会把我吹到别的地方。
当我厌倦了天空，我又会调皮地跳回地球表面。
这样来来回回地重获自由，厌倦自由，放弃自由，等待自由。

累到半死。

不顺利的一天。

赶最后一趟地铁回家的一天。

在离家一个车站的巴士上，电话震动了一下。

伸手要取它，却把包包里的东西掉满地。

体贴的陌生人弯下腰，努力地帮我拾东西。

匆忙下了车，看了看简讯，啊，她又被爱了。

原来快乐和幸福可以这样传染的。

真的很奇怪。一霎那，我竟然把不如意忘得一干二净，笑得像个兴奋的小女生，

忙着向电话的那头的朋友打听事情的来龙去脉。两边的傻笑互相传染，一发不可收拾。

回到家里，察看电邮，真开心，我又被爱了。

好像是思念，但是不知道在思念什么。

很模糊，以点头绪都没有。

还是，

难道

这是寂寞？

寂寞

怎么到来，怎么离去，从来都不留痕迹。

我刚刚连续做了三个噩梦。

其中两个关于你。

另外一个我已经忘记了。

在4。25AM 梦醒的我，马上上FACEBOOK察看我的噩梦是梦还是事实。

事实上它是个噩梦。

噩梦里它感觉就是个事实。

你还没回复我晚上发的EMAIL。

直觉告诉我，你今晚过得很开心。

这种对心爱的男人的放心，以前从来没有过。

或许是因为我们的相爱，是在充满正面力量的夜空下发生的。

像小BABY在妈妈肚子里就因该很开心的逻辑是一样的。

我知道明天中午你就会在告诉我昨晚做了什么事，去了哪里。

话也不多，总是吸取精华，告诉我最无聊，最在意的。

我回来快一个月了。

刚回来的时候，我们的夜空很像。

后来新加坡夜里的空气变得温温的，好几夜月亮也不见了。

月亮跑去你那里了。我也好想过去。

像包装得像精美礼物的及时炸弹，轰炸你的世界。

因为我们的故事，如果还有下集，就应该轰轰烈烈。

Koi hak jao, Baby. =)

你的世界因你而创造
过去现在未来同时跑
没有什么难以办到
只要清楚就确定目标

有爱的拥抱就是解药

生命的奇妙太多思考
让我们不相信神话
成长的路上太多责骂
让我们更渴望被原谅


专注欲望你就会得到
毋庸置疑只管去想像
别再烦恼什么我不要
抛掉伤痛来迎接美好

持续的绝望就是炸药
生命的碰撞太多火花
让我们更期待释放
成长的跌倒太多警告
让我们不再像赤子般奔跑


有爱的拥抱就是解药
生命的奇妙太多思考
让我们不相信神话
成长的路上太多责骂
让我们更渴望被原谅
渴望被原谅

IT'S SUCH A WEIRD THING TO BLOG FROM PHONE.BUT I'M SOOOOOOO LOVIN IT!!!!!!HAHAHAHA.----

GIST OF HIM

一个人。
得到另外一个人那么单纯的真心相对与思念，

这种幸福让我觉得，
呼吸不是为了排出二氧化碳，吸取氧气。
心跳不是为了把血液推向离心脏很远的脚趾头。
吃饭不是为了有力量爬上回家的路上那排很长很长的楼梯。
工作不是为了有钱买更多漂亮的衣服。

甚至，
我觉得漂亮的衣服无法让我更漂亮，
那排楼梯并不惹人讨厌，
脚趾头离心脏也不是很远，
二氧化碳换氧气的科学也可能是某些有钱有力的集团舍下来的骗局，已得到复杂又巨大的好处。

什么都可能是假的。
什么都可能不重要。
当然，在这地球上累积了一些经验的我，知道这些所有的 “什么”，大概也包括你在内。

我天生的乐观，碰上你那超越我能够接受的爱惜，开始有点不知所措。
我不要变成悲观的刺猬。
幸好我没有。

我每天就只想对我所爱的每个人好，让他们快乐一些。
对我所碰到的每个生物多点关心，让他们一天顺畅一点。
有点像中了大彩请大家吃饭的概念，不过我的这种行为是一种自然又很正面的反应。

因为我快要快乐得爆炸了。
所以我必须分享，才能得到一点平衡。

我以为我会因为非常想念你，然后痛得哭泣。

结果在同样没有星星的夜空下，我居然觉得你在附近。
我记得当我惊讶VANGＶＩＥＮＧ的夜空没有星星时，你什么也没有说，只是笑着把电车开得稳稳的，让我觉得自己很愚蠢，但是很安全，很幸福。

现在我抽着你抽的烟，一滴眼泪也没有流。

或许我仍然觉得，认识你，是一件很快乐的事情。

Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

骗子


是的。他是个骗子。
被主人遗弃在猫婆婆家门口的他，跑到电梯门口徘徊。
婆婆的女儿发现了他，叫他别站在那里，很危险。
当时的他，还很小，很可能手脚会跌进门缝。

他出了电梯。跟在婆婆女儿的后边，溜进婆婆家，混在众猫当中。

婆婆喂猫时发现了这个不速之客。

他因此得名 ------- 骗子

本来对我无动于衷的他，原来很爱被 SAYANG。

Re: 我的身体。

我的身体。


我的身体，大约20Litres。
大得容得下很多怪怪的器官。
什么形状都有。
什么功能都有。
什么颜色都有。
有时它们会有点坏掉。
那时，我会觉得我的身体，一阵阵痛。


我的身体，大约20Litres。
大得容得下很多怪怪的想法。
什么重量都有。
什么程度都有。
什么CONTEXT都有。
有时它们会不被认同。
那时，我会觉得我的身体，一阵阵痛。


我的身体，大约20Litres。
大得容得下很多怪怪的情绪。
什么味道都有。
什么浓度都有。
什么效果都有。
有时它们会不听使唤地膨胀。
那时，我会觉得我的身体，一阵阵痛。


我的身体，大约20Litres。
大得容得下很多怪怪的回忆。
什么年龄都有。
什么清澈度都有。
有的已被记忆扭曲了。
有时它们会发疯似的纠缠我。
那时，我会觉得我的身体，一阵阵痛。

其实我的身体不过屈屈的20LITRES。
其实我的身体满小的。
小得容不下我的理想食量。
小得容不下姜和羊肉汤。
小得容不下太多的电话号码。
小得容不下太多的秘密。
小得容不下太多的疑问。
小得容不下更多的背叛。
小得容不下太多的期盼。
小得容不下太多的不安。
小得藏不住太多的眼泪。

THE STORY OF A 7-11 BEAR

THE STORY OF HOW THE BEAR ENDED UP THERE.

Genre: Melodrama
Running time: 2min05sec

1 ROOM. 48 CATS

SHUGO CHARA

My New Addiction...

STILL MY FAVOURITE AFTER SO LONG.

LOL.

LOVES!!!

the sad boy returns

After near 3 months backpacking in China, he was commanded back. Look how sad the boy looks. I can see it was an amazing trip with lots of near-death experiences. But always conclude these experiences with one thing.

"As I stand in front of the huge snow mountains, desserts or whatever, which can swallow me and take my life away casually, I feel so powerless and humble. I used to think that with mind power, knowledge and will, man can do anything. "

OK. here's what happened to him once he gets back to civilisation.

.

He is mentally paralysed by civilisation and urbANISATION!!!!

lol. he's trying to mimick the NBS Human resource management cow. I love the caption i had for this pic on facebook.

"HR cow and it's calf"

Here's the people who summoned him back.

Mama choosing what to wear tommorow. And the judging panel was bored.

OK here's the "next day"

The reason why these people are so excited and had summoned the sad boy home to singapura.

Then they had some fun with the hat....

And they had some fun with the cow...

OVERALL, this whole event made them a very happy couple.

(but the food SUX)

SYNCOPATIONS OF A PICTURED SUITE

THIS IS 

THE MUSIC VIDEO 

DONE EARLIER THIS YEAR.

please view large

MEOW!!!

SMOKIN HOT

THIS, is SMOKIN HOT.

AND THIS! IS FATALLY CUTE!!!!

TOO CUTE to be found abandoned in Singapore construction site!

At least should be found abandoned in Japan construction site lo.

Awwww.....~ If you have a big house.....................ADOPT ME! THen I can adopt this cute angel! 

The thought of it growing big and strong is so nice! I want!

有手机就得对人随时做出反应与回答，迟到的回应还得交待，

这样的责任对我而言不是理所当然的。

我不喜欢。


回复简讯对我来说不是立刻的。

我需要时间用心地想，思考，决定。

我不能边做一件事，边思考。 因为对我这种脑来说，什么事都得思考。
Can't Multitask at all. PLUS 我一分神就会把思绪忘得一干二净。

或许这表示我这种人需要很多时间来做很少事。 但是我保证，每件事我都用心地做。

我不喜欢科技这样催着我走。很烦。很他妈的烦。

我就是喜欢看东西看很久。有时候看很久还是看得不如别人清楚，细腻。我一点都不介意，这不是智障。我有很好的眼睛，世界有很漂亮的东西和事情。
我享受看东西看很久。
这是我生活的方式。

我有时候会有很不方便的想法。

像是想让所有有知觉，会痛会难受，会高兴会满足，会这样的动物，我都想让它吃得饱，睡在温暖的地方，在安全的地方度过短短的人生。

当然，这些动物也包括我的家人和朋友。我不是只关心猫狗。只是猫狗都会满足，而很多人都不会。所以我只有信心帮它们得到快乐。

如果你吃得饱，谁在温暖的地方，在安全的环境过着日子，请你不要觉得我为这些猫猫狗狗做那么多事很无聊。
因为我有信心让它们度过快乐的一生。

我没有任何信心让任何人一辈子快乐。
让人开心大笑的笑话我会说。我真得很会说。人家笑了，我也真得很开心。当然很多时候自己也觉得很好笑，所以是一起笑的。但是为小动物寻找一个安全的家更有意义，因为走向快乐的通道它们已经懂了，就是知足。

我也是人，我知道，人比较难知足。
可能因为比较聪明，可能因为比较emo。
可能因为比较复杂。

没有怪任何觉得我很无聊的人，包括我的家人，和我的朋友。
可是很多时候很无奈，很烦。

请相信我。
我看小动物，我看了很久，我用我很慢的头脑看了很久，想了很久。
它们真的有知觉，有想法。
同样的情况，换你去承受，你的痛，你的不喜欢，它们也有，同样地有。
不会因为它是猫，是狗，而不痛。

请你相信我，从而尊重我。

因为我很确定，我要过这样的生活。

Cassie(white) and Brandon

Ah sor, Mao porpor's sidekick caregiver found these two kittens abandoned at same place the brothers were abandoned. There's a skatepark nearby. They ran there and hid on the tree, refused to come down. Seeing a thunderstorm approaching and the frightened kittens sticking their butts on the tree, Ah sor climbed a bit (I looked at the tree, I dunno how she did it!!) and got them. They keep screaming until she put them in a box. Upon knowing that they're safe, they stopped the noise-making and slept. Lan is supposed to adopt the brothers, but due to white face's surgery, I din't know how long the adoption will be postponed and hence recommended Lan to adopt Cas and Bran instead, cause they need home more urgently. That park is home to many huge adult cats and they are not friendly to these little ones. Lan was nice, upon seeing the photos that i mms him, he agreed to adopt them. It was a big thing cause he's been interested in adopting specifically the brothers since the post went up.

Looking at the shaky video Lan posted on his blog with cassie eating, switch over to drink, and back to eat and back to drink...aww..

All the quirks came out. When one of them finish does the business, the other one will jump in the litterpan and start burying the "business" with the "businessman". lol.


=) Cute stuffs. ok. Gd night. =)

A GREY ENTRY

ADOPTION POST FOR A GANG OF CATS
[ They all stay in a rented one-room flat in Toa Payoh with an old lady. She brought these cats home, picking them up with a number of places. Lots of them were abandoned. She did not spay them, and they hence reproduced. She did not bring them to the vets either, leading to many of them falling sick.

Volunteers went in some time ago and brought all the sick cats and kittens to the vet, cleaned up the place which was full of faece, and also taught the old lady how to keep the cats safe and healthy. Now that lots of them have been nursed back to health, they would need a home-sweet-home to belong to.

The 6 kittens needs home urgently. A place for them to wrestle and grow healthily into fine cats. Adult cats are also looking for home!

Kittens include: Black ninjia and sibling, Challenger(white) and siblings, Mixed Ranger.

Names inspired by the way they speed around the apartment and wrestle.
View them here!
http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid...

email me at doletart@yahoo.com for adoption.
Please entitle subject of email "A gang of Kittens and Cats up for adoption"

*refer to http://pawpledge.wordpress.com/ for background story. ]

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok, and so, I went to the apartment to take videos of the cats and volunteers at work. And I have to say, this gang of cats are SOOOOOOOOOO soulful and interesting! My fave couple has got to be this pair of adult black and white who chill out together on dining table all the time.

Black is always giving gazy eyes, and can get paranoid at times. White looks TOTALLY LIKE BRAIN in Pinky and the Brain!!! lol. in cat form though. looks fierce but when you sayang it, it purrsssss like a baby.

THE DOORMAN
Found abandoned at Nicoll Highway.

The Wise Master

Always looking at the kittens wrestle with a wise I've-been-through-that look.


Greedy Ginger
I forgot this one's name but it is half blind, with the working eye not working well. Full Ginger.
Despite the blindness, EXTREME GLUTTON!!!!
eateateateateateat........amazing!

THE LOVING COUPLE

White nice tail walked over and carefully detoured to go to the side of his partner, machiam dun wanna wake her up. She woke up and looked up at white. White gently lick her nose and neck. Not those agressive cleaning style, but seriously gentling and slowly, which I have never seen.
In a corner of the one room apartment they layed, grooming each other and napping together. Simply sweet. Sweetly simple.



2 RANDOM CATS

THe left one is to me the most GORGEOUS CAT I've ever seen. got biege patch design. Light crystal blue eyes. Extremely Shy. Belongs to the being-the-cupboard gang.

being-the-cupboard gang

Juxtaposition of the Junior B&W with the senior B&W.
The black and white kittens are constantly in a battle. I named them black ninjia and challenger.

BLACK NINJIA


CHALLENGER


CHALLENGER'S SIBLING

MIXED RANGER


Challanger and the other kittens were sent to the vet some time ago to be treated for various sickness, eye infection etc, and are now healthily(tribute to jasmine er) ninjia-ing around.
However, Sick grey was too ill and has yet to recover. Today when the volunteers come in, Sick grey is looking sicker than alive.

SICK GREY

Volunteers immediately phoned Super Mario the taxi driver to come over to pick up the kitten and send it to the vet. Although everyone knows that it's not going to make it, we're justa group of humans who believe in hope (I mean look at what we're doing, trying to rescue animals and rehouse them. there's so many of them out there.) So the volunteer funding this rescue decided to send it to the vet. I went along to jaga Grey and interviewed Mario while waiting for our turn.

Mario with Grey at James Tan Animal Clinic

Mario is a 64 years old taxi driver who has been volunteering to shuttle sick strays to vets. He started keeping his first cat 10 years ago. Since then, he understood how these animals do have a soul and mind just like ours. He then started picking up unsterialized strays while he drives around the island and send them to the vet. He is also a caregiver of his region. He feeds the strays there and currently has a few cats and 2 dogs in his family. He shared with me so much tips, how to get SPCA vouchers for spaying strays, free diagnose every saturday at SPCA etc.

Soon, it was Grey's turn and we went in. Head shakes after head shakes. Body temp too low, too skinny for drip, way too weak to survive. Grey was hospitalised with the team promising to "do their best". And we did what we were suggested to do, "expect the worst".

Hence, I wasn't totally shock when a call came the next day to tell me that Grey is not going to make it, but it still hurts.
Cause where you placed hope, you cared and prayed. And it sux when after all that you've put in, no magic was granted.

Grey has left us but remembering it's painful meows in the vet's while looking into my eyes, I'm glad that it's off pain now.

This post is hence in loving memory of Grey

[photo taken before going in to see the vet]
