Good Ol' Philosophy

Still remember that 14yrs ago..while in sec 2..we had a subject called Philosophy. Dat was conducted in a small stuffy corner on the 2nd floor of our sch gym..and overlooking the entire gym. --Just to digress...yesh~ this yr is my 10-yr anniversary from my sec sch graduation. no prizes for guessing this author's age accurately--
AS if the words of our philosophy teacher were not boring enough (i tink i will never forget tat she speaks sentences in the following fashion: "this example...is a...fine example...of boredom in our modern...................................age". i remember i was terribly irritated because she could never finish up the last word of each sentence in pace)...the room was equipped with a tiny wall-fan...all out to test our awakeness-threshold levels...
and we always had to bring along an A4 sized little red photocopied book of philosophy stories and sentences...from which we had to go through the sentences and dish out thought-provoking (more sleep indudcing!!) discussions.
up till now...i still dunno wat lessons i learnt from these..i mean my sec sch curriculum was full of quirky courses and unexaminable subjects. but these 2 sentences i always strangely remember. maybe cos they are somehow so duh..but yet so true.

All cats are animals.
But Not
All animals are cats.

Beats me wat i shd be learning from these.

But todae someone asked me why i dressed nicely (aka in skirt and pretty shoes) to work dat same dae. "Going out ah?" Usually clad in jeans and normal top. I briefly waved him off and said tat i just felt like wearing..no particular reason. And anywae the weather was so hot..i couldn't bear having my jeans sticking to my legs so i picked out a poor skirt which i haven't showered my attention on for a loong time. the pretty shoes were just meant to match the skirt. I think he didn't believe bcos he said something else which i din bother listening. haha~

so on my ride home..i suddenly recalled these lessons..and 举一反三...i can come up with philosophy sentences of my own too.

She who is going on a date* must dress nicely.
But Not
She who dresses nicely must be going on a date*.
*date can refer to frens' gathering..not only going out with bf lah

Yeah..so this goes out to U...anyone of U...who may tink tat All pple only dress up to please Other pple. Heh.
