Nice Familial Song

So recently I've been listening to songs by Keith and Kristyn Getty. This one is called "A Mother's Prayer". :)

Flexibility

A Tembusu Fellow/Professor that I have bumped into many times at Tembusu commented that the one thing that stands out between students/colleagues at ivy league universities and Beijing/Asian universities is that:

On the negative side:
The U.S. ivy league/competitive students are exceedingly kiasu - they can argue with the professor for one whole day for merely one mark - when that kind of time can be spent in understanding the material better to gain perhaps 10 marks more in the final exam.

On the positive side:
They are flexible; they find a way to do whatever they want to get done. One roadblock? No problem, try something else. If no? Try something else. If no? Try something else. Repeat till mission accomplished.
Asian students/colleagues - upon hitting one roadblock, they wait for the superiors for further instructions, or for a solution.


I think Malaysians are a bit of both.
Look at the elections and the creativity of the Malaysian politicians.

Lol. I just hope everything goes safely,
that the people have some integrity and consideration for others in the midst of emotional turmoil.

On a side note, I think it's about time I make some plans and stop eating the bread of idleness, which is very bland.
