Spent the whole day listening to his Harvard lectures. Really very intriguing. And i think it boosted my knowledge of philospohy up by a few notches If only lectures in NUS were that interesting. The sad thing in NUS is that students are not that vocal. I am one guilty party. We still have the fear of what if we say something wrong, it will seem as though I have thrown my face. This what i dub the "classroom malu-ness" syndrome. This is the result of the asian upbringing and most importantly, the passive learning of the Singapore education system.

Really regret over watching the F1 race and the soccer matches. F1 race was exciting, to an extent worth my time, but the soccer matches, disappointing results and coupled with the lousy display of professionalism of the teams. Disgust. First paper was ill prepared. Questions were easy if revision had been done early. Regret.

Procrastination is a pain the ass. It is not entirely a bad thing, it serves as a wake up call. But then, people fall back to their comfort zone,once the painful period ends.

Rest In Peace, Dr Balaji.
