Dear 'M',
Hope by definition refers to a desire of some good, accompanied with an expectation of
obtaining it, or a belief that it is obtainable. However, people use the word hope so widely, giving us a question of whether all hopes are obtainable? Promises and hopes, are they similar or are they related to each other? Obama has made many promises to the Americans when he took over the reign as president of the United States of American. These promises brings about hope to people as the country tries to step out of the dark and trying times of the Bush era. However, if these promises failed to deliver, hopes will be dented. This shows the inter-connection between the two words. So far, he has indeed delivered some of his promises to his people, giving more hopes for a better future for not just US but probably the whole world. However, it remains to see if that will last throughout his 4 years reign as president.
The recent case of the flu outbreak has put a breaks on the world's recovering economy. This gives me a thought of whether the reign of humans on Earth is drawing to a close. Recent article of the Earth coming to an end is fueling more fears of the approaching Armageddon and the "inevitable" extinction of the human race. Besides the solar outage reported recently, there is also the previously discussed topic of the "big wave theory" that will occur in December 21, 2012, the same year as the solar outrage reported. Is the end near or is it just us being too paranoid. Some of my friends are actually thinking of "why should we even study and take examinations when the world is coming to an end". From my point of view, a positive thinking is what we need and we should persevere on reaching our goals no matter what because tomorrow is something you cannot predict nor can you assume. Only then, hopes can be attainable.

Dear 'M',
Another semester had passed in my university. A lot of things had happened; both good and bad, but it was a worthwhile experience. Although many things had not gone the way I wanted it to be, I'm contented with what I have now and will continue to thrive forward in my life. Have been really busy this semester and didn't really expect my university life to be so hectic. I'm not the one I used to be in terms of conscious capacity but as I continue with my adventures to seek more knowledge, I have come to acknowledge something more important in life, something that I have so far overlooked. Many of you probably will think what it is but you could be mistaken. It's something in life that most had overlooked and might never realize. If that thing were to be some genetic mutation, it would be a silent mutation, never will be detected unless you go about sequencing the DNA sequence and comparing it with the wildtype template. I will not share it here as I feel it is best to be found by each individuals, rather than someone telling you what it is. Alright, I spent 2 hours revamping my blog and it's now two thirty in the morning. Time to go to bed as I need to wake up at six later to go to school for briefing and meetings. Goodnight my friends. Beyond the horizon, there is another one, waiting for you to discover it. ^_^
