Notes from the Greenhills Promenade

1. High School Musical is full of stereotypes. Don't let your children watch it too many times for they might confine their views on what life is or how people think. For the record, I would also like to state that I was... uhm... being.... what's that word? Oh yeah, diplomatic, when I watched this. Btw, bring coffee along if you are very... diplomatic in your movie preferences.

2. Greenhills Center exists on a chasm between two worlds. The world of the bourgeoisie and the middle class separated only by a few meters of concrete roads and walls. It's quite a contrast.

3. The noisiest and most crowded places are always the best places to talk in secret for everyone's minding their own business of listening to what their companions are talking about. You are already having a hard time listening to that guy blabbering to you across the table that you will not be able to hear that guy in the black suit whispering to his friend on how to make a bomb from household materials.

4. The invisible hand principle, put forward by Adam Smith, can also be applied to matters outside economics. It's especially fun seeing the invisible hand work it's wonders on people.

5. Corollarily to the above statement, the laissez faire principle (means leave it alone) can also be applied to real life.

6. Time and, unfortunately as I have realized, money, flies when you're having fun. Ugh, my wallet is on a diet.

7. After watching HSM3, I suddenly have this strong unexplainable desire to learn how to waltz. Please, someone, teach me!
