Computer addiction - part II

The reason I chose to do this comic is because I find that computer addiction has become a severe problem in Singapore. It is not uncommon that one faces the computer for more than 2 hours playing. Not only will this affect their studies, their social lives are greatly affected as well. Many people regret wasting their precious time playing comptuer games only when they grow much older. This is a scenario I do not wish to see. I hope to use this comic to serve as a reminder to all those who are becoming like a big time computer addict, that it is time they reflect upon their actions. I urge all the computer addicts out there to think of ways to help themselves turn around before it is too late. Why let computer games ruin your life and future?

Black Eyed Peas- Where is the Love?

The main point of this song is to promote anti- discrimination. It brings nothing positive, only provokes negative thoughts and outcomes in the end. For example, discrimination only surface more hatred, and people are suffering and some even dying due to these discriminations.

The thing that draws my attention most is the chorus of the song:

"People killing people dying,
Children hurtin you hear them crying."

It shows how sad and serious the situation really is. Ultimately, it also affect the children greatly. It is inhumane to be discriminating others in the first place, and now that it has been developed into such a serious situation, I find that something must be done to prevent this from happening.

"Whatever happened to the values of humanity,
Whatever happened to the fairness and equality,
Instead of spreading love, we're spreading anomosity."

I strongly believe in equality. In this cases it is obvious that some people do not. However that does not give us rights to look down on others that are different. It is not as if they are more superior in any other ways, other than the special privileges they have given themselves. Whatever happened to the love that ought to be existing?

Miley Cyrus- The Climb

Miley Cyrus- The Climb

I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing,
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I,
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes I'm gonna to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb (yeah)

There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle,
Sometimes you going to have to lose,
Ain't about how fast I get there,
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb (yeah yeah ea ea)

Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Whoa a oh oh




I particularly chose this song as it teaches us that life is always full of obstacles. Most of the time things does not go the way people hope it would, yet one must always try his best to overcome the obstacles in life. There is only one difference between those who succeed and those who do not. Those that are strong will succeed in the end, yet those who succumb to fear and other factors that made them stop halfway will end up failing. This song also reminds us that if there is a downhill of everything, there will be an uphill as well, meaning to say that one will eventually reach a point where he can only get better. If one can endure till that time comes, he would most probably succeed in whatever he wanted to do in the end. Even so, there will still be times where even after trying hard, one still cannot get the preferred end result. However, look at the bright side- It will be yet another experience for one to learn, and thus not making the same mistake, if any, in the future. In a nutshell, all of us must learn to look at things optimistically, have faith and do not lose sight of one's dream and goals. If there is a mountain of obstacles in front of you, just try your best to climb over them.
