Born in the wrong era? No. There is no wrong era.

and so it ends.
back to school blues.

well today was fun though.

lovely weather. great for a nice nap.
played with the hyper-salivator, crazy-legged joshua!
very fun, see him laugh especially(at the same thing), fascinating.

played a new game at chien chong's house also.
axis and allied(or allies cannot remember. but that's secondary.)
quite fun. i was hitler. and they were all out to kill me.

not very complicating ah.
just 40 pages of instructions.
took chien chong a week to understand the game.
and he had to draw up a table on the computer to organise his thoughts.
ya. quite a simple game.

wah piang complicatd like anything.
but eventually get the hang of it then not so bad lah.

dong and kc slept through world war 2. but not through 9-11.
saw a re-enactmnt-cum-documentary of the 9-11 incident. very saddening.

but lest i become self-righteous(i forgot who said this, vaugh roberts maybe), the more terrible thing, we must rememebr,is not so much that someone could go so far to destroy others' lives, but that each of us is equally capable of such an evil.

however, you could also see the good that man is capapble of, something more commonly seen in adversity(sadly). how people would risk their necks for others whom they've never met before. how others did whatever they could to save as many people as possible.

something worth noting is that a lot of people didn't know disastrous it was going to be. that many thought that the situation was under control.

many didn't know that they were going to die that day.

i wonder what i would have done if i was there.
i also wonder if we ever expect death. if we live like it was our last.
hmm
