It was a pleasant surprise to actually get the chance to watch the final installment of Star Wars. I was delighted that I didn’t have to line up to get the tickets … being a replacement for someone who couldn’t make wasn’t that bad 🙂 The timing was ok since today I had a friend…

The 3rd Postmodernism?
Increasingly the term “postmodernism” or “postmodern” is cropping up in our conversations here in Malaysia or a recent seminar in Singapore actually had a workshop on it. When words are used to “exclude” or as yardstick of whether you are ok or even as a “trendy cool” word then it’s harder to engage in genuine…
Random Thoughts after 7pm
Elysia definately didn’t inherit my hair style .. I could never keep my hair up like that! Miss her … hope to have more time tonight .. I love it when she goes into “conversation” mode.

THE JEWISH UNDERSTANDING OF SCRIPTURE I’ve first heard of the name Levinas on the tips of a fellow…
Random Thoughts after District Meeting
Sometimes I wish everyday would be just a bright sunny day – and yet – the storms are never too far away. So often, I find myself living in between the extremes of these two opposites … one moment under the sun, at another moment under a cloudy sky. How will the next few months…
I am David
I use to make it a point to occassionally go to the International Screens @ GSC Mid Valley and catch non-mainstream, art house and foreign language films. I enjoyed all of the ones I’ve chosen to watch. Quite a number of the movies moved me to feel and to think deeper. This particular one is…
Cultural Creative?
You scored as Cultural Creative. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside…
