bloody hell I didnt have enough time to finish my last essay... boo! I was halfway thru discussing single parenthood when the examiner said stop writing or you'll be considered cheating! I covertly wrote 'cohabitation' and 'family functional, definitions change'. Sigh, I wonder if the marker will get it. And I realised I got the control theory mixed up with conflict theory =( Too much time spent on religion.
Note: I DID NOT use vis-a-vis in any essays
Ate at Munchie Monkeys for lunch. Their pasta is overpriced and didn't taste so good. Is Chicken Fettucine supposed to have sour chicken? I don't know what they used to marinate but it's weird. I prefer the Arts Canteen's carbonara, and it's about 3 times cheaper too.

was really bored from waiting for imminent doom at YIH. hahaha.. Luckily I didnt go back hall or I'd be caught in the raging downpour.
Surprisingly time management was much better even though I spent 50 minutes on multiracialism. On the contrary, religion wasnt very well developed in this one. I don't know why. but I couldnt come up with more points for the rationalisation of religion.
Note: I DID NOT use vis-a-vis in my essays. Ah well, so much for sounding pretentious.
It was a relief to have finished two papers. Looking back, I'm glad I took sociology modules as it helped broadened my mind to what's going on around the world. (or what
went on since I am still not in the habit of reading current news) I learnt how social structures can impose constraints on the individual and sociology is all about learning beyond the individual. I learnt how the highly trumpeted ideals of meritocracy have a hidden flaw in them. I have a slightly better understanding of Singapore society, although I was a bit sick of reading the unintended consequences of multiracialism, CMIO, pro/antinatal policies and the like.
Oh and I learnt a new metaphor in one of my readings: The Scylla of McWorld and the Charybdis of Jihad. Sounds deep right? What's more, it's a
greek analogy. I love greek myths.
