In the midst of a lifestyle change now.
I have no idea what prompted me to wake up at 6am everyday to go for a short run / gym @ the office before work. It was just a "I miss running" thought and that thought went viral in my little head and the thought then materialised. It was purely because I knew I will never have the resolve to run after dinner (talk about bad habits!). Thus, I have been waking up at 6am everyday for the past few weeks and feeling damn proud of it! I'm glad I have managed to do it so far because I also noticed a significant reduction in my sleepiness during work hours. Highly suspect a strong correlation between the two - would anyone like to do a study on that? =P

I also talked to my insurance agent on Monday, and apart from the panic caused by the parents' non-existent medical insurance, one topic we talked about struck a chord. He had noticed a trend in the differing leisure hobbies that "good school students" have and "neighbourhood school students". And so according to him, neighbourhood school students tend to play ball, sing karaoke, chat at the kopitiam, etc etc while good school students have more atas hobbies like reading. Though I maintained that I also do the activities that he does, it got me thinking on whether there really is such a segregation. I'm sure I read because I like to read, and it's a habit cultivated from young. Or is that the correlation with being in a "good" school? Confused much. This line between the two seemed to be demonstrated on a regular basis, the latest being my cousin maintaining that we (i.e. rest of cousins, uncles who went to fairly famous schools) do not understand him because he was an ITE student. Albeit now being an NUS undergrad, this was the sentiment that he had. Though we all refuted that as a possibility, none of us can really prove it, can we.
So is this divide for real?
