First paper over.

Jurisprudence paper is over. Four more to go. Next one is HRM on 20th, 9 days to prepare, it'll be alright. 3 hours is honestly not enough to cover jurisprudence, so much for me to say and argue about yet so little time! Only managed to answer 3 out of 4 required, damn my time-management skill is really bad. But i'm confident that i'll pass.

Moving on to another subject. I find suicide intriguing, i mean suicide the phenomenon, it's not like i'm contemplating committing suicide or anything. I was first scientifically introduced to the topic through my sociology class, Emile Durkheim the researcher that one's supposed to be familiar with in relation to the subject of suicide. Recently, i read an article citing that 2 groups of South Koreans, 5 and 3 persons respectively, committed group suicide. Then i read the comments from fellow netizens, one caught my attention: "It wasn't their choice to be born. Why should they be forced to stay? It's kind of mean to bring someone to this world, without their say, and then tell them they cannot leave. Just another form of kidnapping. - 'Dan' " And i thought, wow he's right.

Another mind-broadening moment. That's all for now. Goodbye~~~
