A philosophy book
Please go and read

UK bestseller
The Pig that Wants to be eaten: 100 experiments for the armchair philosopher
by Julian Baggini


"Examines received opinions, things we take for granted. and dissects them entertainingly."
-The Times(London)

It makes me go "omg wah." *starts thinking hard* every flip of the page. and it kinds of OPEN up your brains.
It's not only about religions, it's about every human behaviour.
It's very not tiring to read because its like thought experiments, like short stories. then one story only 2 or 3 pages. so it's very easy to read, and easy to understand.


Here's an extract:
(I type out one. See i take the trouble to intro this book. because i think every human as a human ought to read it.)


First, the world runs itself according to physical laws. God is not required to turn on the rain or raise the sun each day. But, says the Livingstonian believer, it was God who lit the fuse and set the universe in motion.

Then, however, we notice that nature is far from gentle and kind. There is terrible suffereing and downright evil in the world. Where is the good God now? Ah, the believer mantains, God made things as good as possible, but human sin can mess things up.

But then even the blameless suffer and when they cry out for help, no God answers. Ah, comes the reply- as their God retreats further and further into the shadows- the good that comes of this suffering is not in this life, but in the life to come.

And what are we finally left with? A God who leaves no trace, makes no sound and interferes not one jot in the progress of the universe. A few miracles are claimed here and there, but even most religious believers don't seriously believe in them. Other than that, God is absent. We do not see as much as his fingernail in nature, let alone his hand.

What then is the difference between this God and no god at all? Is it not foolish to mantain that he exists? If God is to be more than a word or a hope, surely we need some sign that he is active in the world?

haiyo. that kind of feeling.
walao. so like i just bought a conditioner, you know those small small type very cute ones.
people buy to bring out lah, that type.
then i just wanted to tear off the price tag to make it nicer,
then i saw "sample not for sale"
i feel quite abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz lor.
haiz.
actually i shldn't be lah.
because it's a shop and they are doing business.
and it's not expensive lah.
and people do sell sample stuffs even though they clearly write "not for sale"
like little perfumes samples in sasa.
but i still feel abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.

this kind of feeling is like very not worth it kind of feeling,
because actually you are not cheated and you like what you buy,
but after you saw something it makes you FEEL cheated because you know others are taking advantage of situation, but actually you never lose out and in fact you like that thing you bought.
but you still feel abcdefg.
humans.


(btw it feels very good that you actually have decided to do something yourself. then suddenly someone say want to do with you. yeah it feels good when help comes along whole-heartedly and voluntarily. such true and real relationships.)

guys and girls
guys endure big pain. like go to war, shed blood, etc
girls endure small pain! like poke pimples, hair wax, etc

guys seem to all think they are handsome stuffs.
when watching a show they will imagine themselves to be the handsome good prince.
this is not good. because it's a show of arrogance and BU YAO LIAN and BHB-ness.
girls seems to have lower self esteem and easily doubt their self worth.
when watching show they will compare themselves with the pretty princess and complain how ugly and fat they are, instead of imagining themselves as the princess?

Hmm why is it that in the world, there are fewer guys than girls?
This is unfair because it makes the guys like "rarer"
Just like pokemon, people all want to catch the rare ones, isn't it?
Lucky no more boys over girls thoughts nowadays.

Last time when i was young i used to want to be a boy.
(not to the transsexual kind of extent lah)
Because it's so much easier to be a boy?
no pregnancy, no period, no need to sit properly.
HAHA but now I think it's much better to be a girl.
BECAUSE IT"S FUN TO BE VAIN
FUN TO CHIT CHAT
FUN TO SQUEAL TOGETHER
FUN TO SHARE SECRETS
FUN TO GET EXCITED OVER NEW DRESSES
& GIGGLE LIKE CRAZY.

I still can't really understand how transsexuals feel, such a strong desire to become the other gender.
I guess I would never understand, so don't need to try.


What about you? If given a choice, what gender would you want to be?
(Or would you not even want to consider the question because we are not really given a choice)
(Then again, normally people would want to be the one they are already, because used to it already what)

just stare at the sky.






































I blog but you don't have to understand.




2:16 AM



(my nail damn nice right. natural glow one. the light i guess.)

hehe. still remember the early in the year when i thought that colour changing was really cool.
need to find my love for chemistry back all over again.
walau so hard to do :( (but the paper is soft)


I blog but you don't have to understand.




12:41 AM

for ZHI
heh. my brother thinks that im this idiotic sicko nerd who has social problems and dont have any friends in school. LIKE HAHA?
(then again he might think that im typing this cause i want to prove to him that im popular but actually a loser)
(then again he might think he misunderstood before)
(then again he wonders why im typing so many then agains)



When things are over, i think it would be easier to analyse the problem out and really say out true feelings.
Because it's over there's nothing really you can do about it and people will not try to compare what you think with the real thing and disagree with you and blah, so it's easier to say when things are over.
when things are over. hmm.
very difficult to understand again. BUT NEVERMIND YOU DONT HAVE TO :)


I just think alot. so i blog lor.
Like blog is a place you can say weird things which you want to say out loud but it's not possible to say out loud? i mean you do talk with your friends and all, but in real life you don't grab a person and start talking all emotional stuffs and life issues all of a sudden right? because it is weird.
And because i blog so emotional, then you start thinking im this DEEP EMO person.
like hello? who dont think about life?
OK, no need to explain so much.
I just thought if everyone were blind how good would the world be?
No prejudice whatever. haha.
Actually I sometimes really wish Internet would be gone and disappear into the stars again.
Really exposed to too much lah.
And so many wrong information.
You see now so many dead blogs, when our generation die then there would be alot of DEAD BLOGS.
I can imagine like one million years later when humans invent new technology then the people would be looking at our blogs for their HISTORY LESSON and analyse our thoughts.
LIKE SO FUNNY RIGHT!!
I know I imagine too much.
And I keep using the word HUMANS like i alien like that?
HAHHA.

I dont like to be dependent to anything. though must admit in this world surely will have things that you cannot live without. but try to minimise it to the least lah. esp superficial things, like using comp and handphone. I know it's very hard in this kind of world. But humans didnt need all these stuffs! Like whatever you seriously dont have to treat this seriously because im just thinking ALL THESE, in real life, i still check my phone like every half hour, online like everyday, watch tv like nonsense.

(my brother treats what i blog seriously. like very. Of course i appear retarded and stupid in real life lah, because im such a fun and happy person. You can't expect me to start talking my life thoughts to you on the bus in real life right >< and like have heart to heart talks while watching tv, while eating rice, while smelling your fart -.-)

Humans need to learn to differentiate jokes and facts.
Everyone is deep inside, thats why we are humans, but yeah probably someday some creature better than us humans will take us over and then we will be kept in zoo like how we are keeping monkeys in zoo now( from a curious incident of the dog in the night-time, it's a book title, silly!)
So like i think everyone is deep, like can THINK. It's just some people can express themselves, some cannot.
Some prefer to pretend that they are not deep, some wants to show to others that they are very deep.
But point is everyone can think, but what do you really think about?


.
.
.

Anyway my life motto is to 过写意的生活.
you can spread this life motto.
I enjoy good food, good scenery, good times when you learn new things, try new things,
and of course im grateful for and cherish the people who i eat good food with, enjoy good scenery with, and think things with.
Omg im so clear with my life that im a proud freethinker. (fangxian, stop it, getting religionist again!)




:D THE SUN MAKES YOU HAPPY.

check this out. It's fucking funny! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hgsw5Hg0Agh

Just thought that in this kind of world, photos are all overrated..like the bestest, happiest moments often don't get captured.and all the photos only portray manmade happiness.

this is like freaking hard to understand, but nevermind you don't have to.

nothing can replace the human memory.muahaha.

before the internet, i guess teenagers don't enjoy taking photos as much as they do now, right?

I think Xiaxue is the best blogger, because she is really very smart.She can really write fluently and smartly.

Even saying that she's smart is like an insult for her because she is like smarter than smart.whoohoo.I'm so glad she has like so much "blog power" (in the sense that she can actually write to like tell people to think) and she is using her blog power smartly(her thoughts for religions, smoking, etc). I may sound like I am someone who deeply affected by her blog and like having thoughts led by her thoughts. NO. It's that I have thoughts and I thought that her words really speak out the deep thoughts of human minds. And it's really great that her words are so strong and powerful.

It feels quite warm when humans start discussing about life issues and start analysing human reactions. In plain words, chatting and gossiping is FUN FUN! gossiping is not talking bad btw, it's idle talk about other's personal affairs.

heez.
shopping buddy/secrets talker/funny bestie/ rubbish









Some of the Two0ne07 people






3/3 and one not 3/3








MEAN THOUGHTS:
If life is fair, people living a great life would die early,
and people living a bad life would live longer.
THEN AGAIN, living a good short life is like enough already
and what's the point of living a long lousy life?
just more sadness and sufferings right?
Is life fair?

I hate to be the one knowing all the inside story.
Because it sucks to know that people are all thinking the wrong stuff.
walau.
i am getting disgusted by something pretty. gosh.

I am still living a happy life despite all the unhappy things.
because all the abnormal and unhappy things have no right to make me sad
~hurmphs!








everyone is supposed to be sad but look at linkai and me laughing at shafeeq!

teachers
(there are real examples in my mind. i still remember who was what. but no names mentioned at all! except MMC lah!)


in primary school,
there were some teacher's favourites,
either better in studies or born with a pretty face.
yes it was quite obvious.
in primary school,
there were those cute kids,
they had more friends and teachers would like them better too.
haha. i guess it's quite hard to put the looks aside and not favour any students more, it's quite hard to not like the cuter children more lah, i mean, who like ugly children?
then in secondary school,
some teachers laugh at you openly.
straight in the face.
If making fun of a student is being straightforward,
woah the society very open minded hor?
some teachers dont bother to teach,
maybe not dont bother, just that dont put in enough effort?

teachers play a very important role,
though in the end it's actually all up to yourself.
am quite glad i met some great teachers through all these years.
(why i am talking like im going to graduate? HAHA.)

this year form teacher is ...FUNNY?
(almost everything under the sun can be described as funny -.-)
I think(everything is what I THINK only, no need to get worked up ok)
JI DONG. YA DONG. GUO DONG.
MMC is like too used to being with good students,
that's why she like very shocked at our class attitude,
and the constant comparison of us with the class two numbers in front of us,
haha, quite a good experience for her i guess.
She keep nagging at our laziness, i think hear too long already then will also think about it, quite true, WE ARE LAZY.
She really hate tuition teachers, it's funny everytime she talk about tuition teachers.
"dont follow your tuition teacher hor"
"i dont care what your tuition teacher teach you"
there was once she HEART DEAD with us already, but because of the liang cha and the book that we wrote,
she like "want to help us again"
amazing what a few words and action can do.
"if you dont help yourself nobody can"

Right. But still, she cannot teach LEH!!!
but math is about doing it yourself.
(ok im saying all these like she is my favourite teacher, but dont misunderstand ok, she isnt :P )
But she has alot of wise/funny quotes.



25aug "Long fingernails doesn't improve your math"
28aug "Why you don't do exercise? Don't give me this kind of face...You are the one can do it"
12sept "Am i right? Yes or no?"
"Am i right? Yes or no?"
.
.
.
she just kept saying this after each sentence
totally funny shit. and you are to reply YESSS


"oRHkEH class.."
19sept "I see holiday dono it is how happy"
23sept "You arh, blur like sotong. i got bad impression of you"
yeah she said that to me. poor me.
but i told her the truth.
i told her that her bad impression were false impressions.
24sept "You cannot live without reasons. so must write reason."



Actually if you really talk about studying,
i think textbooks are more than enough,
they explain alot.
I think the purpose of teachers are to provide some sort of human contact with us,
and to provide some sort of entertainment,
and maybe to FURTHER explain things(like one funny english teacher who talk until about her house furniture)

so memorable.lmao.
