Confusion

If you want to solve
All the confusion-problems
Of your mind,
Then resolve to live
Inside the illumination
Of your heart-sky.


Read the signs i was told....read the signs...

Sustainable Development - Reality or Utopia?

Sustainable development for Singapore means growing our city state in a way that:

Is efficient: we develop with less resources and waste
Is clean: we develop without polluting our environment
Is green: we develop while preserving greenery, waterways and our natural heritage

This way, we ensure that Singapore can enjoy both economic growth and a good living environment for ourselves, and for future generations.

I might have something to say about that...

What next?

Writing the master thesis was a challenge, simply because it was time consuming. But whether i felt it carried sufficiently quality is a highly debatious topic to me. Much too debatious for anyone to listen to. I didn't feel as if i really acquired a whole lot of knowledge, much less say skills.

It was just like a build-on from my Bachelor's FYP skills, and i didn't feel as if it was a giant stride forward. Is it normal to feel like this after one finish writing his thesis?

1) How much of the thesis should u take ownership for?
2) How much can a supervisor stoke your interests or steer you towards highly academically challenging thoughts and fields?
3) Could supervisors still fulfil their duties if they are supervising a topic they don't exactly have a very deep knowledge of?

take a trip and hopefully the answers will surface by themselves...

an excursion...

even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.

feel like eternity

i've got to stop creating unnecessary work for myself.
I dislike some people, but perhaps its only life that we learn to deal with them,
and come to appreciate them for who they are at a later stage of our lives.

The end of a chapter, and the beginning of a new one.
Uncertainties can be managed, but the process can be full of angst sometimes.

Cities are like humans

A city is just like a human. You may think of it as 2 systemic components:
1) taking inspiration from the blood circulatory system: we can try to introduce some form of cycling of the metabolic throughflow

2) taking inspiration from our digestive systems: some things just cannot be recycled and becomes wastes to the sinks provided by nature

while 2) has been the more common target by technocrats for improvement, 1) has received less attention. How can Singapore improve on 1)?

the path towards sustainability is a challenging one.
