Stay in a place with such a nice view!

Tin's house view in Utah!

You better live your life well! You know how worrying we’ll be if you live in a nice place and still not the happy girl we want you to be?!

What’s your contribution to this world?

Posted by Eric Tan on Jan 17, 2008 in Browsing Web, looking at the world, thinkin' loud

“What’s my contribution to this world?”

This question pop up in my mind, on and off. Why? I’ve gone through the standard procedure of “birth, grow up, be educate and make some money“, and inherited the standard goal (or is it not?) from a simple Chinese family: “be someone useful”.

But, if you ask me this question, I’ll tell you: “nothing”.

Why? I don’t know.

Maybe you need to know “what” is useful, before you can do something useful?

Or, maybe “å?ªæ‡‚æ?µéŒ¢çš„地方長ä¸?出好男人”? (好男人)

I don’t know. Hope I can do some project like this..

Saw some comments criticizing the project.

Well, I don’t think it’s that silly after all. At least I know the idea is way better that One Laptop per Child. why? Who need a laptop when survival is a problem?

I know this will not be the solution, but at least this sounds like some kind of solution? At least I think distributing filters monthly seems a lot more feasible than distributing clean water daily. Just like giving fishing rod is better than giving fish, maybe?

Fifteen bucks for an article

Posted by Eric Tan on Jan 11, 2008 in looking at the world, thinkin' loud

I love magazines, I read almost any magazine I found. One of my favourite columnist is 佘宗明 (I found him from 《號外》). I’ll buy a magazine just for his article. That’s equivalent to about SGD15 and article. That show that I never control my financial expenses properly. But, that also show how good he is.

集体生活的人会想�脾气,一个人生活的人会想哭。

集体生活的人会当自己一个人时�想哭;一个人生活的人�会独自�泪,但当�到人,他们便会�也���了。

集体生活的人都把说�收在心里,一个人生活的人都��得�以把内心的说�尽情地释放出�。

集体生活的人�以��家里乱七八糟,但一个人生活的人便无�奈何地�把家居料�得整整��。

集体生活的人上厕所时会关门,一个人生活的人会赤��地在屋里走�走去。

集体生活的人哭了便会好一点,一个人生活的人�会愈哭愈伤心。
