traditions...

how relevant can traditions be??

im still not very convinced why traditions are that important..

yah yah.. they are reflective of our roots.. jus because our fore-fathers are not born in singapore means we must look back to their roots, why can we make our own roots??

the competitive nature of the time now, compared to the past, can these traditions still work? the inflexibility, inconvenience and often irrational practices are beyond my understanding.. yah im a ignorant brat.. but then can anyone prove me wrong at how these traditions can be so inflexible and at e end of the day, u wonder if e "opportunity cost" that you are paying is abit high?

can tradition allow us to survive in this competitive world? yah im the new generation of ppl whu are individualistic.. but, from another pt of view, im not the only one in this world! time dun stop for me, and definitely wun put the whole world on hold just for me so that i could get back into the survival game on a level playing field!!!

i sometimes feel ashamed of myself for having these thoughts recently, as if im devoid of emotions. but i cant understand nor can i find reasons why wud u wanna find ways to put ur life on hold when someone pass away. the world still rotates and ur life still carries on. i know its emotionally traumatic but i feel we should instead find ways to carry on, to gather the courage and strength to overcome this barrier, our life does not stop..

i gotta write this long post to vent my frustration, although i shld really be studying. im facing a high possibility of unable to complete revising b4 my test. no im not an elite, im jus a normal ordinary student, trying to understand what is happening to my life.

I NEED A GOD DAMN BREATHER!!! and its of high irony that sch become my best excuse to get one. GOD DAMN THESE DATELINES AND AMOUNT OF WORK!!!! ARGH!!!

har.. feel much better after venting.. i tink i can finally study in a positive mind now..
