Things seem to be stopped at where it seems to be over the past two weekends, i spent my sat packing my room and sun teaching tuition.
Busy weekend i have, days in sch passed fast... perhaps due to the fact that i am having afternoon lessons.
Suddenly it dawned on me that Chinese New year is coming.. I din realised that its this weekend.. though i am always ranting about wanting to shop for clothes for new year.. haha
In the end it is those who went with me to shop getting the clothes..
Anyway during one of the lectures that i attended.. i came upon a new phrase.. Gross National Happiness..
Believe me i am not joking... there is this place named Bhutan where it is not so developed yet... though for most country where the govt are concerned about their economy and the (GDP) Gross National /Domestic Product, this place actually focuses on the spritual health of the people there....
I thought it is rather interesting..... Gross National Happiness. if there is ever any chance i would visit the place i would certainly like it a lot.. however they do charge tourist a fee when they visit and they count it by the number of days u spent there... Touring there meant that i would have to spend a bomb N it also means that the place is not so open to the tourist. I think it is their way of controlling the visitors to the place in hope of preserving most of their culture...
I hope that this week morning lesson that i have. i be able to survive through... its now like 2 am and tmr i have lesson at 10 am which means that i have to wake up at 8 plus.... I hate morning lessons.......
PLus this sem i got a lecture at 8 AM in the morning.... I think i am crazy... i think those who knew me also would feel that same way.... wads worse is that its a language lecture.... I hope i can stay awake for the lessons and not stoned....
