have a nice day

Due to my work-dance schedule, I have not had much time to write posts. So I shall randomly post interesting pictures to fill in the lapse between meaningful posts. I believe the staple below can singlehandedly revolutionize office friendliness man.

"don't you want one?"

Golden Ray Migration


I first saw it here and I felt the need to re-post this on my own blog. In 2008, Sandra Critelli shot this excellent photo of Golden Rays off the Mexican coast:
She said: “It was an unreal image, very difficult to describe. The surface of the water was covered by warm and different shades of gold and looked like a bed of autumn leaves gently moved by the wind.
“It’s hard to say exactly how many there were but in the range of a few thousand.
“We were surrounded by them without seeing the edge of the school and we could see many under the water surface too.
Golden Rays grow up to seven feet across and migrate within the Caribbean.

surreal indeed..

Truth is I have no idea where this is bringing us. It feels good now. So it is probably the right decision for this moment in time. Let's not think too much.

just go with the flow.

hip hop

Hip hop class is not just a dance class. When you rehearse a 2 minute choreography 5 times in a row, it is also an aerobic fitness class. On top of the physical demand, it requires a certain amount of focus, coordination and teamwork to get the moves right and everyone to move in sync. I'm usually dripping with sweat and breathless after it. Recently, my dance instructor brought hip hop class to a new level. He came into the class and announced to us... "Guys, we are going to try back flip."

"Back flip. No problem. Just give me time to train"-cj
Hip hop is now a gymnastic class as well..

split second

The van blocked all our view.  I popped my head out to clear the blind spot. A split second later, I spotted the incoming car 2m from me and a kid running past me onto the road. I was not able to react in time. The kid is out of my reach. Thankfully, the car braked and brushed slightly against the kid. The driver lowered his window to scold the kid, but the kid had already ran off. Did the careless kid realized that he could have gotten knocked down?

For the mere split second which i was helpless, the kid could have got injured.

quote

“One man is unequal to another from the very beginning, and there is nothing you can do about it. The democratic principle infringes the rights of those who are more intelligent, more talented, and harder working; it places them in a position of dependence on the foolish will of the stupid, talentless, and lazy, because society always contains more of the latter. Let our compatriots first learn to rid themselves of their swinish ways and earn the right to bear the title of citizen, and then we can start thinking about a parliament.”
