Going Bald

Going Bald


Many ask me this question. Why did I shave my head bald?

To some I said "Saves shampoo."

To some I said "Lazy wanna comb hair."

To some I said "I went back to National Service but as a trainer this time."

To some I said "I joined the go bald and donate to Gaza charity."

And yada yada yada yada yada...

Well, to those of you who are still curious, here's the complete and truthful answer as to why I decided to go bald.

I have tried many hairstyles. Ranging from geek to clean-and-smart to stylish. Most people prefer my stylish hairstyle which is very long. However, I take comfort over style.

While having long hair is stylish and makes me look cool, it was rather irritating to have it blown in my face when there is a gust of wind. Also, since I ride a bike in uni, I end up having "helmet-hair" which makes me look completely weird.

Hence, choosing to be more comfortable and more "free", I decided to go bald.

Also in package are;

I don't have to comb my hair.
I don't have to use so much shampoo.
I don't have to put up with hair in my face when the wind blows.
I don't have to worry about my hair being in style and not losing is "cool-ness"

There. The truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I hope it has cleared up some of your questions regarding why I cut my hair bald.



Oh;
p.s. I intend to remain bald.

Rubiks Cube & Euthanasia

My Interest In Rubik's Cube


Well, I have always been interested in the Rubik's cube. I first encountered it at my cousin's house during Chinese New Year when I was much younger. However, I have never been able to solve it. Naturally, therefore, in my childhood years, I lost interest.

Only recently, in first semester that is, I came across it again. And this time I was interested to try until I would manage to solve it. I tried and tried using common sense and still could not get it. It was when I first saw it again after years that I found out there was a formula to solving it.

Hence, I bought a Rubik's cube myself and learned the formula from Lisa. To this day, I'm still trying to solve it even with the formula. However, my few attempts have failed so far. I shall continue trying.








Euthanasia


Euthanasia is explained as a form of mercy killing. In other words, you take away someones life either out of consent from the person itself or the family members.

This usually happens with hospital patients who are suffering from extremely serious injuries and have no hope of surviving. Example; those who are currently living with a life-support system and without it, the person will die instantly.

In some cases, doctors administer a drug to "kill" the patient in a painless death. Some other cases however, the doctors remove the life support system or termed "pull the plug". Most of the time, this is done with the consent of loved ones as they may not be able to bear to see the person they care so much for suffer to such an extent. Sometimes, it is the patients themselves who suggest the move as they may not be able to take the pain any longer.

In my personal opinion, this move is a very subjective matter.

One is that people have no right to play god and decide when one dies. There is a reason why we were brought into this world and there is also a reason why we are allowed to survive albeit with the help of machines. Just what gives you the right to decide that you should end his/her life? Is it because they are your loved ones and you know best? How would you know? Did you ask them before you made the decision? Well, obviously not. How would you know that the person is actually fighting with all his/her might just to stay alive so they can see their loved ones again?

It is said that when a person has the will to live, they will continue to live on no matter what. Even just to be in this world for another second. There have been cases where a patient is hooked onto a life support system but with the possibility of recovering dies with no reason. It was not because his body failed of the system malfunctioned, but because he lost his will to live.

Two would be the possibility that the family can no longer support the medical bill and have no other choice but to end the suffering on both sides.

Three is that the patient may have left an earlier note to end his/her life should they be in pain or any form of suffering and when the doctors inform that the person has no chance of regaining consciousness.

There are so many other reasons for this action. Many countries have banned this act as they deem it an immoral act and it is still a form of murder.

Each reason may be reasonable at the time of action however, no one will know what to do until the time comes. Each family and each person's personal view and decision can only be made based on their feelings at the time.

I cannot condemn this act nor can I agree to it. What is our right to judge those who have done it? They have their reasons. Some may disagree by saying that it's inhuman and give every possible kind of reasons. However, have you been in their shoes? Can you feel how they are feeling right now? Can you understand what is going on in the family or individual?

God never gave us the right to take lives, nor did He gave us the right to judge people.
Euthanasia is an act only one would know when the situation arises.
That is when one will know what it feels like.
That is when one will know how hard it is to make a decision.
That is when one will feel the suffering.
Then is when one will truly know...
