“Two Things Define You: Your Patience When You Have Nothing, And Your Attitude When You Have Everything.”

Hahaha, was trying to casually stitch multiple recordings and photos that were poorly taken into one video, and it turned out quite well (to me)! 

I was exploring rooftops and hoped to have a peaceful dinner on the rooftops with the spectacular urban landscape. Things didn’t turn out well initially, as I was caught by a manager just a moment before the lift opened. Luckily I managed to circumvent him later by befriending a Bangla worker there and he guided me around with authority. 👈🏻– although it isn’t cool that way, but at least got free narration for the entire tour on the office building 😝

Kudos to those rooftopers out there. They are terrific. The whole process I was preoccupied with fear&anxiety… it’s like entering into a condominium as an uninvited guest and going into the ⛔️restricted area (both by policy and by law) 🚷👮‍♂️

I find this app #digime is so cool! 😎 It collects and organises all my data in 1 place, putting everything at glance 😍 Totally free.

It's the last year I'm taking art. Yayy!!! 🎉(It's rubbish to me🤕) I scored 64/100 which is good enough to me. Hahaha, I actually appealed for sympathy😆: Done by amateur. Pls be lenient. I guess it worked because I scored higher than a friend whose drawing is more complex 😅 Then the Mr Bean one I got 5/10. 😕 Yet, honestly I think it's one of the best portrait I could ever create 😶

This post is so helpful. It covers the basic of CSS coding in order make a good, responsive website. 😃 I actually applied the newly acquired knowledge to my Tumblr blog and it works‼  😄

Usually I didn't calculate: Today I just realised that I do at least 20-100 questions/day. Unless it's word problems then just 20 only. 😅 ⁣ I really hope I can make it for 'O' Levels—all subjects! 🙏 https://www.instagram.com/p/BvMOnxIn0SFMvVznk48pGcccVlSaBcK-M7CUKw0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=11oh1wvw8o9tj

Wow, seems like this “first impression” thing is scientific, known as the Halo Effect. So conversely if you’re late the first time, that negative trait will form an overall bad impression of that you.

This means that the unmentioned bias is real…… if you seem clumsy during the very first encounter. 😝

The halo effect

People who are nice are often perceived as being more physically attractive, due to a cognitive bias known as the Halo Effect. This is because being exposed to a single positive trait of an individual causes us to form an overall positive impression of that person.

In the United States 🇺🇸, there are 2 sides of the aisle on the resolve of gun violence – gun deaths that killed tens of thousands every year or firearm injury that affects up to 70,000 yearly).

One advocates for more gun control (common sense), while another believes in more gun rights. The latter may sound counter-intuitive, but with proper research, I realised their belief is justified.

There is only 156 mass shootings in 2016, and a total deaths of ~800

Unlike the partisan narrative that some try to push, gun violence is less severe than how it is purported. This allows the Conservatives to dismiss statistics as “rubbish” and biased. Most of the gun violence deaths are suicidals, and mental health is a whole new category. Even if gun is banned, and a person determined to self-kill, it won’t stop the person from doing so.

Gun Right advocates also believe that more guns could be more effective in stopping mass shootings. For example, in the event of a rogue actor trying to carry out mass killing in the public, an armed Samaritan could come out to quash the shooter while waiting for police’s arrival. This helps to mitigate casualties and fatal deaths. Here are some real-world cases of aforementioned possibility.

As a result, unless guns are universally banned in the country and rigorously enforced, partial or compromises are ineffective and counterproductive to gun violence homicides or mass shootings.

Nonetheless, Gun Right advocates are also hell-bent on the solution of more guns to reduce gun violence deaths. Opposition would point to the success model of Japan and Australia of eliminating gun deaths by banning it and gun buyback programs to reduce firearms in circulation as their statistics. Unfortunately, Gun Rights also have their own statistics to substantiate their point.

If you look carefully, more guns ownership have no correlation to more gun deaths.

It is just the way of how we present the same piece of information.

Hence, that is why Gun Right advocates think to the contrary of the rest of the world and maybe this phenomenon is caused by the fact that criminals do not voluntarily relinquish their access to firearms and therefore an inadequate gun buyback or restriction program will instead put those law-abiders in greater danger. Gun prohibition is only effective in the long-term.

how many more fucking kids have to die in school because these selfish ass lawmakers don’t see the the importance of making stricter gun laws

If you really want to do something, you'll find a way. If you don't, you'll find an excuse.

This is one of the most heartfelt moment in my secondary school life. 😌 Coming from a neighbourhood school, it’s a privilege to be a participant and I’m truly contented just with that. 😇 Different people have different achievements/pivots (whether in games, sports or academics), I’m really happy to formally become an Olympiad medalist in Biomedical Science. (It’s not the best Olympiad as compared to other ~5 Olympiads, but I’m still vv delighted) 🥉🎊🎊🎊 PS: I sacrificed Informatics Olympiad (N.O.I) though. 😅 (at Loyang View Secondary School)
