Remember the Name.

Names carry a certain significance. Mine is self-explanatory. Let me go on to expatiate more about the names. Mainly, the names[chilly-peak][Pinnacle.Of.Shadows] all stem from something that Ben Ng said to me today. In chinese, its gao1 chu4 bu2 sheng4 han2, saliently, it means that it is very chilly at the pinnacle. At the pinnacle/peak of greatness, you will feel very alone, and very emo....

Return of the Condor Heroes, a novel,also depicted this sort of loneliness with this character. Du Gu Qiu Bai. He was supposedly the best swordsmen, but he was lonely, at his acme of power, thus, he wished to be defeated. But he never did, and he died in loneliness, his only friend, his Condor.

It is very lonely here, supposedly at the "best" school in SG. Daily Competitions wear out the fragile human spirit, bones are broken. Friends become rivals. And many other evil behind-the-back stuff that happens within the "elite community". *Shivers*

Here's hoping that nothing untoward would happen..............
