No one's blogging.
You can blog about random stuff you know. Ideas, insights, or daily observations of the world around you. About your own on-goings, your own recent life, your aspirations for yourself, for your group, anything.
If you lost the username and pw, please message me. I'll be more than glad to pass it to you.

What defines commitment?
Attendence?
Faith?
Practise of the Dharma?
Closeness?
What is commitment to you?
What is sbm to you? A place to learn? A place to make friends? A place to have fun?
What about your life? You're always going at this hard rock music pace to ever slow down and appreciate the music each footstep creates.
It's not too bad to slow down, contemplate and find your objective.

Sometimes I wonder if the improvements in technology, or, to be specific, the invention of mobile phones has caused human beings to be less conscious about the issue of latecoming. In the past, without the presence of mobile phones, people had to be punctual if not the other party would be left in a sea of confusion. But now, with mobile phones, people often carry this attitude of "aiya, just call him and say I'll be late".
Has anyone ever wondered it's not just a point of whether people worry for you, but also a responsiility and more importantly, it is an extremely important form of courtesy. A time wouldn't be set in the first place if both parties are set to wait for each other to arrive. Similarly, a time is set so both can meet up and hold whatever activities they planned. It gets irritating when people are late, everything gets delayed and then you're late for yet another activity.
If one is late and has informed the other party on an earlier basis, especially when an activity is held on a group basis, to me, it is forgivable. But if one is late just because the bus was late, because s/he underestimated his/her own preparation time, then i would say it is a lame excuse. All these ought to be included in the "time estimated for one to prepare so I can reach there in time".
Being late causes other people to nurture this bad habit in them as well. Because they will always have this attitude, thinking, "since the other party will be late, then it's okay if I'm late for a little while too", and everyone is late. Say, a group planned to watch a 245 movie and planned to meet at 2 at the nearest mrt station, everyone is late, tickets are sold out, there goes everything.
In short, latecoming is
bad. lol. okay. TATA!

We had our auditions for SYF today and I learnt a lot from my instructor, Ernest. A lot of people over-memorized their monologue and in turn, forgot their lines. Meanwhile some focused too much on each and every line, so much so that they forgot all about putting their feelings into the lines. This set me pondering.
Many atimes, we focus so much on letting something to rise politically and in strength that we totally neglect the well being of each and every member. Likewise, we always focus on what appears to be good--not forgetting your lines, but in turn, you left out the most important thing of acting--the emotions, the most important thing within a group--the bonding. I'm just voicing some views of my own, no offence to anyone, but to me, whether a group is strong politically is not important. To me, what matters most in a group is the spiritual bonding as well as the friendship, it's them that keeps the group together, and eventually bring the group to rise. Slow, but powerful.
Just something random, oh well. bye!
