Lingering thoughts

Been thinking quite often these days, one is about a letter to one of the local paper's forums. Actually it came out from Jingkai's mouth lah but anyway this person was suggesting a death sentence for hit and run criminals. Most probably the idea came to him for the recent case of a taxi hitting someone or some vehicle and didn't stop.

As I watched the news where the one of the local vehicle repair workshops got a plaque from the SPF for being an alert and vigilant citizen blah blah .. it just came to my mind, what would I have done if I hit someone and there's no one around and the person I just hit is confirmed dead. It would be a farking dilemma wouldn't it? I would surely be in one, now does that spell any troubling traits about me I wonder. As Jingkai told me he would surely stop since he didn't want to be forever haunted by this incident, I also searched my mind for a piece on conscience.

What if you surrendered and admitted to running that person over? If this law is passed then you'd better be prepared for a noose around your neck. Well that just means game over right?

However if you ran, well you would probably end up hiding for the rest of your life, probably in any country if you can really get out in the first place. And being haunted by that incident forever. I don't know which is better but both options aren't that good in the first place.

I also realised that my studying pace is so freaking slow compared to my peers. Most of the time JK can finish revision way ahead of me while Zeff can really chiong last minute and yet know his stuff much better than me. So now really quite worried about this, I mean this isn't just about acadaemia but part of a life-long process. Learning self improvement is very important and I also realised I have quite a lot of other flaws. That day while I was revising M&C I realised there was a mistake in one of either JK or KC's drawings/workings/explanation. Though I knew it, I just didn't open my mouth to spit it out. Weird right?

So after a day of thinking the next day I forcefully made myself explain how a circuit worked to KC. Hur hur.. that was really silly and yet enlightening. Machiam doing a mini presentation.

So much for weird traits about me. Have you searched your soul today?
