@ EQ Blonde

What I meant was, while there's nothing much we can do with the "control", why don't we be creative and look for sources that might give us the withheld information.

And, I am totally with you for what you said about the "free speech" and the sensible way to form an opinion.:)

@Crys, well, that's the thing about free speech. There are flooding news on the media, we don't necessary have to listen to or believe in what they told us. While there's no control, anything would possibly be there, all we have to do is to gain the ability to step back and learn how to see all these things. You will have the ability to have your own opinions. 

But not something selected and approved for us to see, and that's all we could see. :-) 

The way I see it, that's not very creative!

Yes CC...Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie (above) and I attended the same university:-)

Here she is with my close mentor and Professor. I call him Professor P.  And he's the coolest guy. 'Drove a Volvo back then. Aced his class which was a lively marketplace of/for big ideas all about using the humanities to enrich the world and he writes me the longest recommendation letters (and sentences just like other beautiful and positive minds out there). So, next time an ignoramus tries some nonsense about Brevity, smile and remember Sting's very relevant words.

@ THiNKTaNK

Thanks for accepting my friend request too:)

I've read some of the other blogs, insightful! And your reply too. Appreciate that.

@ EQ Blonde

Well, for the media and control system in China. I am not so sure what's to believe and what's not to believe sometimes.

Make sure you have reached out for other media sources before jumping into any conclusion. Personally I find those of Hong Kong have been quite unbiased. The censorship here in China is not bullet-proof :P just be creative lol

Liar Liar...You just don't want to compete with Damaris Lewis or Kate Upton

Ok...Well, I'll make a decision when I have a chance to see your page...which if memory serves me right, is locked.

:-D 

Too much paper work! 

I choose the alternative. :-p I am not felons nor heartbreaker... ... but Shenzhen stuffer :-D

Alright then. Settled.

You send me your application signed, sealed, placed inside the glove compartment of a Victoria Beckham approved Range Rover Evoque coupé Dynamic, Ebony & Pimento interior (preferred)...with Panoramic Roof view and most importantly, driven either by:

1) Damaris Lewis ...or

2) Kate Upton

And I'll happily send you my Terms of Service.

*Alternatively, you may deliver the accommodation application yourself. We do not discriminate against blondes. Unless they're convicted felons, heartbreakers...or...Shenzhen Stuffers:-)
