Hi. my first entry in close to half a month...did not think it worthwhile to do so before that cause nobody was writing.

agree with ethel about this: there are times when i think of myself as just a moneygrubbing thing who works just for the cash. it really seems pointless, esp when one goes to the so called real world and find that you are under the mercy of the employer, the people you provide the service to (whatever it may be) yadda yadda. i have grown a lot in the last month or so but i wonder whether growing up just means becoming more practical and inevitably, more cynical in the process.are we just to become working machines to do the bidding of the employer, whoever is on top of us in the hierarchy?i seriously do not think that we really require brains in this society...on the contrary, think something that is against the norm and face the wrath of many.
