happened to pass by the tv and saw the news clip on the cip project at the one room flats in marsiling. the bad housing conditions, that look on the faces of the lower income groups, that sparkle in the eyes of the children just because they get computer lessons at the void decks? why do the lower income groups look so different? i mean, perhaps it's understandable in the way they carry themselves but we all started from infants right? why can't everyone look the same? i mean, the world is never fair but i dont want anyone to tease them. i dont want them to be scorned upon. but who's standard is the right standard anyway? to begin with, standards are but standards. so no standard has been right given the premise that the world isnt fair, right?

it warms my heart and pains me to see that sparkle in the eyes of lesspriviledged children. so glad that they get their share of childhood happiness, yet, frustration or something i dont know what - i cant figure out yet. hello? i had art lessons, dance lessons, swim lessons, storytelling (!?!), drama, arithmetic, chinese classes [although after all those lessons, im still like-that-only la, but that's not the point. haha], and here, the kids are clad in faded clothes, jumping with glee cos they are having lessons on old coms?

here's when i feel my 24hr fever was nothing.

the world isnt fair. and everyone's a victim (and benefactor from that). yet, when i harden my heart and think pragmatically, why do i think that the world need not and should not be fair.
