Tiny bits and pieces

Still adjusting. My daughter is a transferee in her school. This is because we need to relocate after opening a small business in my hometown. She is still adjusting to her environment and classmates as well. Although not that plenty as compared to her previous school, still there are several notebooks and projects required. To address her needs, I bought her a file case for her small stuffs aside from a backpack. By distributing things evenly, this will help unload her back from excessive weight. One of her weaknesses is getting hooked with latest international Korean pop groups to the point of buying almost all things that have some connections with them. These include pens, tumblers, bags, and notebooks. Not only that, she sees to it that all her collections are well-kept and maintained; thus, I bought adhesive back pouches for her to use. I just hope that this obsession will not last that long because this will only add up to my expenses.

Thinking into deeper issue

Critical thinker. On rare occasions, I would transform into someone who is a “critical thinker”. It is when I would “think deeper” into some issues, internally contradicting everything that is different from my point of view. Sometimes, I verbally express my stand on something while hoping that others who disagree would not throw it into oblivion. Just like when I demonstrated how to use adhesive back pouches my own way. Actually it doesn't matter at all as long it serves its purpose. I have the freedom of expression’ as my defense. So what triggered “the critical thinker”, you might ask. Well let’s just say I’ve been reading and watching a lot of news lately such as politics, the death of a very well-known showbiz personality, and the upcoming election. History taught us that we have a presidential and democratic form of government, but I think the way things appear right now has become an oligarchy. By definition, it means a type where it is ruled by powerful yet not necessarily capable people. Just think of the rampant political dynasties emerging from the lowest seat in the government to the highest. They may not be that capable for the position, but power and money allows them. What a tragic scene actually! I’m not trying to brainwash anyone here. I’m just saying what I see from the other side.
