nature vs nurture debate (genes vs. environment, innate vs. learned, genotype vs. phenotype)
probable question i might tackle for my first assignment, give me your advice if any.
"what is punishment, and does it really work?" Investigate from persepective of psychologists, with expertise in the area of learning.
anyway, taking 3 modules only this sem. Psych, Mgt and Mkt... out of which, mkt seems rather boring. we shall see...
lots of readings to do, lots of assignments coming up... too much work, too little time.
lots of other committments
looking for job to earn some additional cash... anyone with jobs to introduce?

have a pact with Avril that she'll save 15-20% of her pay each mth, and ill save 50% when i start working. perfectly possible... just a matter of discipline.
money goes into our new shared account...
agreement that we should save around $30-50k at least before thinking about marriage
important to have a target to reach, so that we wont be doing things aimlessly
but of coz, things can change... as time goes by... money factor, time factor etc.

Arsenal to have new yellow away jersey next season

having a headache now
feel really tired after school tonight
perhaps ive been studying alittle too hard... haha, CLEMENT CHENG - studying hard?!?
serious... too long a period without reading and studying, feeling the stress now
but looking forward to doing well, getting gd grades... bleah!
new table doing the trick
for those who need motivation to study, i feel a change of environment or having something new can help spark a change and make a difference in your life. Try it, it works!

some facts of life...
life is hard and not always fair
we live by choice and not by chance
habits are the key to all success
goals are dreams with deadlines
you have to give up something to get something
psychologists cannot predict all the people all the time, but they can predict some of the people some of the time
the road to success is always under construction
statistics are just like mini-skirts, they give you good ideas but hide the most important thing
intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them
in relationships there are problems and deep within the problem lies the solution
life is a game of cards, the way you, the hand that is dealt you represents determinism, the way you play it is free will
and most importantly, the quote that is close to my heart, as i say it over and over again.
