the shirts are not for sale

title: 3223 hrs

stop the trains
what trains?
what brains!
you no brain!

hoard it up
hoard what?
board what?
don't board it!

it is still
still is?
will it?
it still will!

you know, its entirely upsetting to write three verses of poetry not even remotely pertaining to the topic on hand. I like it though. Years from now, I'll be re reading this post and start to wonder what ailed me so many years back. Its obviously not very good layering if i can't get it years from now. 

On a more pensive note though, I've come to realise that people care too much about changing and nurturing the prodigal sons/ daughters. Its insanity but ever since I've started teaching my china boys and other kids, I realised that education is for everyone. Its not about making an extra effort to change the prodigal child's life. Its across the board and equal in every respect. I find it sad that teachers would reach out more to the naughty ones which i quote "because they have so much potential".

yes, we ALL know they have potential. Yet, just do your own thing and don't reach out to anyone special or if you want to reach out, reach out to EVERYONE. That way, they'd know that they're ALL special.

Its most perplexing when people preach to me about discrimination and whip their heads of unfathomable/ perhaps, unknown hypocrisy to treat others better than a certain other. To them, i just throw my hands up in absolute frustration and remark "AVAUNT, PERPLEXITY!"

Raw confusion aside, I've started on my study of fingerprints.

THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS STUDY OF FINGERPRINTS WITH ME, PLEASE IM/TEXT/CALL/NUDGE/FB( facebook, not the other definition) ME. THANK YOU! I will require your full set of finger- prints and a form filled up. 

I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH EVERYONE OF YOU! YAY!
