More About Me

I'm passionate about

Seeking creativity, pursuing artistic career, successful relationships, exploring common mysteries of the world by watching Discovery Channel and National Geographic and doing my Business homeworks.

An idea worth spreading

There is a recent research based on a partial data that the future holds more of occupations regarding STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. (The Pictograph can be seen in Mashable.com's Graphics Section) John Maeda, the Rector of RISD (Rhode Island School of Design), supported the idea that 'A' is needed to be included. A, in this case, is for Arts. (History Arts, FIne Arts, Liberal Arts, any kind of Arts) Arts do play a big role in the world. Without Art, I believe that the world has lost its spirit of living since it will be not more than a dull place that lacks creativity. Past history is needed in order to create a better future and not to repeat same mistakes. I believe that it is obvious careers relating to arts are also expanding rapidly. The world may still be rolling on its orbit for 365 days a round, but something may be missing without arts. Products do not worth the price without good and creative advertisement. Therefore, I suggest STEAM instead of STEM.

Talk to me about

Scientific issues, social medias, rapid changes in todays' world in al-perspectives, psychology, business strategies, economic crisis, education, creative invention, artistic careers and Christianity.

People don't know that I'm good at

Critical thinking, Analysing, Creative writing, Advertising, Persuading, Calculative Designing, Acting, Dreaming, Singing, Imagining, Being curious and Motivating.

My TED Story

I am currently a TED Translator, I want my country to get engaged more in this resourceful site that is capacitated by a good deal of knowledgeable and inspiring individuals who are experts in their own field. I wish education to attain impounded minds but rarely inventive ideas by showing the kids a video by TEDTalks at a time at school they're in.

  A comment on Conversation: Abolishing the use of the term Atheism.

  Nov 14 2011: My dear, Frank Segro, I do understand that you found the term Atheist is not acceptable...
  I ask back to you then: what do you want to be called? :-)
  You should suggest yourself a more acceptable term, right?
  I know you would not stay quite when you are asked what's the belief, despite belief system.

• A reply on Conversation: Where do we come from & where do we go ?

  Nov 2 2011: God. *in my belief. And soon, I know that it will that of the world too.

• A reply on Conversation: IQ: The Best Method to Measure One's Intelligence?

  Nov 2 2011: Yes, this is the point of view I am looking for. :-) Thanks for your reply Gale. However, since this is a debate, don't you think people who possess higher level of IQ have higher chance to succeed compared to those who have standard ones? (in this case: they both work toward standing out of the crowd)

  A reply on Conversation: Where do we come from & where do we go ?

  Nov 1 2011: I do agree. We were all made of dust and will soon return into dust. We come from our Creator and go back again to our Creator in Heaven. Whether one believes in God or not, it's such a nonsense if we were born just as a body, where did our spirits come from?
  
  Remember, we are not human experiencing spirit but sipirit experiencing human form. ;-)

• A comment on Conversation: What can we do to get our intelligentsia to focus on the major problems of our time?

  Oct 31 2011: Back again to the "intelligentsia", is that particular group really the main factor of our major problem?
  
  We also take part and factors who indirectly support those problems with our daily actions.
  
  As citizens of the world, we need to think globally but act simply. It all starts from small actions to increase awareness. Just do our role as good citizens and respect the governors and other parties in charge whether they do their roles or not, soon they will feel bad for themselves if they don't.

• A reply on Conversation: Age old question: Who am I?

  Oct 29 2011: (cont) ME. MYSELF. full stop*

• A reply on Conversation: Sexism in Ian McGilchrist's talk The Divided Brain.

  Oct 29 2011: And the battle of sexes begin. I think it would be nice if things stay simple, but indeed it means living in fantasy since reality is a complex world.
  
  I do wish I could just escape to another planet and start off with strategies which solely involve peace where in it exists no economic recession, capitalism, political superiority complex and many other unsolved problems. With better lucks, hoping that it would someday be possible. Don't we all wish for better lives?
  
  Just felt like sharing these thoughts.

  A comment on Conversation: Sexism in Ian McGilchrist's talk The Divided Brain.

  Oct 28 2011: Oh do not be silly, my friend. I am a female and I am fine with it. You know, there's a MALE in feMALE. So, I do believe that male is also a representative of females around the world. There is slightly null of sexism in today's world. Everything is changing. The girls are running the world, is it a sexism? No. It is a fact. Don't get jealous. Click this link:

• A reply on Conversation: Can Animals Be Homosexual Or Bisexual?

  Oct 28 2011: Well, here I am, endeavoring to be as open-minded as possible. I do believe that anthropocentrism is always there yet humanocentrism is also there. Let me fix this up, in this context, the related subject is perhaps supported by facts that it needs to be the superior midpoint.
  
  Human beings are not only the most intelligent living creatures on this planet but also "have higher degree of intelligence, wider capabilities and a more sensitive sense of love; compared to those of animals." And this is based on scientific research and stated by Protagoras that man is the measure of all things. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protagoras)
  
  So, I do not made up my opinion by subjectivity purely, but also reality. Thanks for the link input, Raphaël! :-) means a lot.

  Oct 27 2011: Well, other than human :-) should put that up, I'm sorry.
