At times like this, I love my dad very, VERY much. *happy smile* Discussing different topics with him had been a favourite hobby of mine...my dad's knowledge and opinions about things really surprised me at times...they can be really profound. *__*
:) In anycase, he left me with more views regarding the topics and open my mind to more ideas.
Disclaimer: this are just my own opinions and thoughts about certain things, and they are in no way definitely accurate.
'Rules are everything. They are the way of life, they are restrictions, they are tools to control oneself, and they are definite. Without them, there is only insanity.'
Isn't it true? What's the first rule we set upon ourselves when we are born into this world? To live, and thus we cry for milk.
When you want to urine or shit, you go to the toilet. That's a rule. When you wake up, you brush your teeth. That's a rule. You wear clothes. That's a rule.
But these are things that you can choose to not do, right? What matters is the consequences of NOT doing them. Imagine yourself running naked in the public. It's not something you can't do, but what will the people think when they see you acting in such a way?
'When one says he wants freedom, what he really means is that he wants to follow his OWN set of rules, instead of rules set by others. Madness is the ultimate freedom, since there's no rules, thus one cannot even control oneself.'
It's not necessary to follow a rule, but you'll have to think of the consequences of not doing so.
Imagine there's a bridge. It takes you from point A to B. A rule is something like a bridge. You have to follow it to achieve/do/reach something. But of course, that is not the only way. You can simply swim over, instead of using the bridge. But you'll end up getting yourself wet. That is the consequence of not using the bridge(of not following the rule).
Not all consequences are bad though. Sometimes, when you go against the rule, you'll end up coming up with new rules that works better than the old one.
Regarding law, it is not everything. Law is there to control the bad rules formed by some individuals, such as criminals. A murderer can think 'I want to kill this person', and does so as that is a rule he made for himself. The law exist to control certain rules that might prove harmful to the society and the people.
Punishments are enforcements to certain rules, since some people might choose to be funny and disobey certain rules. The enforcements are there as an attempt to ensure that people obey the rules.
'Rules are meant to be broken- but rules aren't really broken in this case. They are merely remade.'
Rules changes from time to time and from place to place. Evolution and revolution symbolises the changing of rules. When whales moved from land to the ocean as part of their evolution, they were actually changing their rules from 'We live on land' to 'We live in the ocean'.
Thus, rules apply to all living things (even plants have rules).
But anyway, rules are meant to be broken is true to a certain extent as one day, the rules will change, and in a way, that's considered breaking it. A rule is broken when people no longer follows it. Thus when an old rule is pushed away for a new rule, that old rule is considered broken.

Okay, enough writing about rules. ^^;; Just writing down my main thoughts now so that I can refer back later if I forget something...
I had similar discussion with Kaiwen just last Tuesday...was doing Art & History homework again...to be honest, this module is quite taxing on the brain. ^^;; But it's fun, in a way. XD;;

I'm recently into Lovely-MocoChang aka LM.C (though I really like only two songs...^^;;)
The first is 'Boys and Girls' and is the second opening song for the anime Katekyoshi Hitman Reborn (though I didn't watch it. The quality of that anime sucks, even if the manga is love =_=)
^^; Those who had been paying attention to my 'what I'm listening now' tag on MSN Messenger will know that I had been looping it on and on for the past week.
The second song is damn cute. XD Talks about a pig's love for a lion~ (basically, a fat girl liking a handsome young man)
:) I like the Maya's voice, and to be honest, I'm surprised that they are a two-man band, Maya as the vocals and Aiji as the guitarist(and back up singer, I think)...I thought they are a full band after watching their Boys and Girls PV at first...^^;;

I wanna rec manga, really. But...I think this post is getting too long. XD;;
...
Ah well, shall go ahead with the rec-ing! 8D
Shall rec one manga today~
KUROSHITSUJI 黑执事 Black Butler
One of my Reborn-kahki rec-ed this to me, with an indignant 'You don't know?! It's Butler!Mukuro!'
*ahem* For those who don't catch the joke(in which I guess all of you don't), Mukuro is from Hitman Reborn, and the butler in this manga that I am recing now resembles Mukuro ALOT. *__*
MUKURO:
Anyway, I started reading it for the Mukuro-resemblance...but as it gets into the plot, it's quite interesting.
Phantomhive Ciel is the 12-year-old head of the family, with the mysterious yet charismatic Sebastian Michaels serving as his perfect butler. Sebastian can fight, make delicious desserts, extensive knowledge, perfect manners and solves tough problems that might post a threat to a perfect dinner party. But of course, nothing comes for free, and as you can expect, Sebastian is not what he seems...
So far, it has two volumes...though only the first volume is translated into Chinese...which you can find HERE: AT COMIC SKY FIRE!!

Okay, I wanna rec another one...but this is getting too long...(is there a word limit? >.>)
Shall post it next time then~ :) That's about it~ For those who have read to this point, you have patiences~ *thumbs up*
