One Friday, December the eleventh, Mr. Cassidy, a rich oil tycoon, comes to the office to give Lowery $40,000 to buy a house for his daughter's wedding present. Lowery asks Marion to deposit the cash and she said she would. Instead, she packs up and heads for Fairvale to see Sam, with the money in her purse. She ends up at the Bates Motel where she meets Norman Bates, a troubled young man who seems to be obsessed with his Mother. After Norman fixed Marion dinner,they had a little chat and she goes back to her room for a shower.

Chan Teng's philosophy on philosophy. Part 1

Philosophy seems to be a very profound subject which ordinary people of average intelligence do not need to be bothered with. There is often a misconception that to embrace philosophy, one has to be the modern-day Socrates and constantly ask questions which seems to have no satisfying answers. Following thisline of thought, many would neglect the idea of philosophising; thus crushing all possibilities accepting philosophy as an essential tool of leading a meaningful life. However, philosophy is merely a subject that attempts to understand the general principles and ideas that lie behind the various aspects of life. Philosophy is crucial for one who wishes to lead a purposeful existence for it liberates one from being trapped in various assumptions made by their society, allowing one to discover what is true and what is not.

This is evidence that the High School Musical franchise sucks big time. Below are four of the best songs featured in the film. All the songs are by The Beatles. Hope you guys would like it.
