Eh so long never post already, haha yeeshin motivated me to post!

Now it's third week of holidays already, doing bio SIA now. Everything about coronary bypass angioplasty and stem cell tech. Cheemology uh.

Oh yes, sabbaticals was fun. Stained glass was cool, we got to cut glass! We score the glass and break it with our hands. Like, PIACK! then the glass broke nicely. Can cut curves also, just a little more troublesome. I did a tree! Soldering was cool too, I got to use a new soldering iron hah. Only grinding was horrible. The first time I put too little water so the glass bits wasn't washed down by the sponge, and everything flew towards me. So you can imagine what was I thinking then. Didn't even dare to sweep them off. Haha went to wash them away in the basin.

Philosophy was. Wow. Talked about things we don't normally talk about. Like what is truth. One thing happens, but there are many different perspectives, as of how do you see and analyse the event. So which perspective do you regard as truth? This kind of thing. And why do we do good things? Are we all selfish? Does God exist? What do I believe in? Do we do things because of the consequences or because it's our duty? And some ethical issues, about death sentence, discrimination ect ect. Heh. Sounds quite abstract and cheeem, but seriously it's not, if you really think hard. And lots of movies to watch. We watched part of batman. The detonater part. Learnt how to think properly, and importance of reflections.

But there's one thing that bugged me since the module. We talked about hiring someone who was a prostitute as a PR manager for a company. And I was disturbed by the way the address a prostitute. Everyone, regarded the job as a-wrong-thing-to-do, or a disgrace, where people who's in this profession are victims of circumstance. That in this case, she improved from her 'mistakes'. Well, I mean, it is one's opinion, whether your body is something that cannot be made used of, or compromised. It might be your religion, your values, that you cannot tolerate prostitution. But to some people, virtue is not a dominating factor. Just like a scenario, if your father commited a crime, would you be truthful and send your father to jail or tell a lie to protect your father? In this case, it's the weighing between importance of honesty and filial piety. There is no rights or wrongs, because it's the order of priority. Same for this case, to us, it might be virtue over, for example money, but it might be the other way round for others that do not share same values as us. So who are we to say that prostitution is wrong? It all again, depend on how we view this.
