I came across an article from straits times online regarding singapore birth rates and I find that what the professor said about the situation in singapore totally true. The article is titled, "Fathers, please step up".
'A fertility rate of 1.23 children per woman indicates that life is not that optimal for young women in Singapore. You can gather from that that Singapore women have to make a choice, either to have children or to have an active professional career,' he says.

Will this situation change for the better with the newer generation? Or will the boys now follow in the footsteps of their fathers? I wonder...

Love... indescribable...
Love can be so many things at the same time. It has existed since humanity begins or maybe perhaps longer than that. It can be so confusing and yet so simple, so big and yet so small. I wonder if I can ever grasp the whole meaning of it by the end of my life journey.
I watched a show that inspired me to do more for someone you love. Sometimes, love, is about letting something grow, even when you want to help it. Just like a butterfly. You need to let it squeeze out of the small hole by itself in order for it to fly later on.
