snapshot no.1408

people, lifestyle, culture, society

time now is 11:17pm. 12:17am tokyo time. :)

i've posted a final entry over at shinjukupore. well, do check it out. i guess i still do miss the trip, haha. but as i said, the blog serves as a nostalgic journal of our time spent in tokyo. in a good way, that is.

been observing the japanese people while i was there. and i've reaffirmed that aspects relating to people and society as a whole really do intrigue me alot. i would unknowingly make a mental note on human behaviour and other related stuff that i see, then i would want to know what attributes to these differences as compared to the local society here in singapore. i believe i've found what i really want to study in future (besides media of course) after my national service. and i do want to work towards that. hopefully 2 years worth of plain following instructions a.k.a. a dog's life will not change my mind too much.

which by the way, the fate of yours truly is sealed on the 14th of june.

sitting here now and in the distance the planes all flying in to land at good ol' changi airport. air traffic seemingly heavy. waiting for my barcelona man united match to start. and for vel to return from her supper.

a random read about dumbo on wikipedia. and i do empathise with dumbo for being ridiculed all the time by other people about his big ears. and ultimately being suppressed by all the negative vibes surrounding him. but alas! he surprised everybody with his flight capability. and i believe that the more significant thing to him is not earning the respect of others, but rather rediscovering what he's worth and the path to happiness regardless of what people say. well, if i were dumbo that is.

and yes, big ears do bring happiness in disneyland, at least to vel and i. i'm using this picture of us as my handphone's display. we're dumbeebos! love it, haha =)

perhaps somewhere else in many different parts of the world,
dumbos are waiting to take flight too.
