The power to change
For all the brouhaha, what makes them think that girls would want to join VS in the first place? Let's not pick on the nittygritty like the lack of toilets for one. Ah the world's going INSANE. First with dunmanhighJC and the move and the syllabus and now this, looks like everybody's turning suicidal. The greater depression anyone?
I picked up this phrase while reading into Foucault's model of power:
Where there is power there is resistance.
It seemed all so lucid that obviously when people have the power to effect change there almost always comes resistance (with the except of Singapore ha). But soon my mind subconsciously deviated into this whole realm of physics where it actually made a lot of sense too, that a load has to be present for energy disspation in a circuit and hence where there is power there is resistance! Oh what a stroke of genius, I'm feeling like John Nash :)
Or maybe not. I'm just going crazy.

where there is resistance there is power. Power without resistance is "effectless". P = I x I x R. Perhaps that's why Bush needs an Iraq to attack..
