this restaurant is gorgeous. Yellow Treehouse Restaurant, New Zealand was designed to be a hideaway from the city, somewhere the chic could dine in style but in the middle of mother nature.
Best part - the restaurant was built as a statement. The Yellow Group built it to show potenial clients that they can do anything.
However, the restaurant is fully booked for the year(!) and only 2,000 people have ever dines within its branches.
new zealand really pulling out the stops man... first LOTR then this.
in other news, if you read the papers today, 9 out of 10 MJC students scored distinctions for project work for the A's whereas only 26% from CJC and 85% from Hwa Chong getting the same result.
now, the papers are making a huge hoo-haa about how some teachers gave more attention to the project work module and some teachers just heck cared. For instance, MJC cited that they had to turn in 7 drafts before the project was approved and their teacher was very merticulous when coming to details and such. Whereas other colleges, the teacher saw 2 drafts, gave a rough overview for improvements and sent the students on their way.
my god, Singaporean JC kids, wake up and smell the common sense.
Not only are you implying you aren't good enough to develop your own ideas, but also that you rely heavily on others to validate and proof your work. do you honestly think that in the working world, your boss is going to check facts for you? or that he is going to allow you to submit 7 drafts?
by draft 4 you can go look for a new job already.
all i can say is that kids nowadays need to stop expecting help and to stand on their own two feet. sheesh, two page article dedicated to how reliant the kids are on the education system is appalling.
and parents, stop defending your children and blaming it on the teachers. you of all people know who unfair the world is. keeping your child wrapped in a tiny bubble isn't going to do good for your young ones.
whatever happened to good old resourcefulness and self-reliance.
