Inspiration nation

My good mate TP just started a planning job for an agency. She kept on asking everyone what inspires them.. Just came across this and this and couldn't help exploring more and more. Next time I get one of her all-friends emails at least I have something to tell her

CNN do it in 19 minutes

... and my housemates and closest friends do it in 2 months. It will be two month on the weekend and I'm hoping something will change by then...

Rational vs Irrational

I love it when people are not afraid to talk about their believes in rational and irrational, science vs religion vs God vs spirituality. Had an awesome conversation at Amarath (very delicious, thanks for not serving us desert tho past 11 pm, which we were dying for) about the role religion and the notion of God plays in using cre to modify genes to help find a cure for cancer. Which to me raises a whole bunch of other questions. Do we need the research? Have we humanity put an unnecessary burden on natural resources already and curbed the natural human culling process? Do we have to test the new medicine on third world countries and disguise it as 'help'? And do the researches actually do it for their passion or the pay? Too many unanswered questions too walk away with at the end of the night so made GW miss his train home, sorry about that G! And of course it led me back to this, without a god, life is only a matter of opinion.

I suppose that is a bit of a intense start of to this blog, I don't intend for this blog to make sense to anyone, and especially not me as I am still trying to figure it all out myself. By all I mean just the little bits of life that do make sense to me. And fear not that will probably be the one and only religious related post for a long long while. 

On another, lighthearted front, walking home bumped into my to housemates and very close friends who had a bit of an accident with hair-dye and ended up looking a bit like a baby chick mixed with skunk option. As a girl, never do your own hair. Unless you are a super pro hairdresser with eyes on the back of your head (that would look very weird, and I am sure uncomfortable in a hair dying scenario). 

Hoping to see GW again before he scoots off back to his newly adopted home country. While I ponder the meaning of life, the briefs I have to write today and a trend watch report that I'm dying to read.
