"If you work for a living, why do you kill yourself working?"

A year ago, this quote wouldn't have ring a bell nor lit a lightbulb in my head, coz it was the uni days. No work, no job, no obligations.

It is beautiful, how a movie - 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly' is able to conjure such starkly epiphany, simply because life imitates art.

When I was jobless, I swore to hold on to a job no matter how tough the job is. It is amazing how idleness can drive an individual to make a resolution as crazy and mindless.

Today, I am not backing out from my resolution, as I think it (in some perspective) encourages me. Nevertheless, ever pondering the meaning of this quote, I had come to a point and learn to ask "Do you really wanna be in a crazed Rat Race?" Calling it a race is unfair, as there won't be a winner, just as true as the race will never end.

Learning to give and take, win some and lose some. It ain't a uni subject, and it ain't hard to do. It's amiable to be eager in tasting success. At the same time, it is also important to know when to 'slow down' or 'be at ease'.

don't stop, but don't break your back either,

good luck

I Punched the Little Girl

Dear Mr. Sandman, please bestow upon me a good dream tonight. Because I loathed the one I had for my nap, you know, the one where I punched a little girl.


In all fairness, did you expect otherwise? A dream that begins where I lost my credit card and a strange little girl starts to annoy me, I feel that it's completely justified (in dreamland laws) that I hurled a punch out of frustration.

In retrospect, it's kinda stupid waking up from a relaxing nap hurling a punch that landed on my laptop. Yeah, my laptop! Ouch!

So, here's the deal. I've never had such violent dreams such as this and it worries me for fears that I might turn into the Hulk with uncontrollable rage. Imma take things slow at work and YOU provide me with sweet dreams - at least 6 times a week, starting TONIGHT.

A pretty sweet deal, eh? Done!

Here's to a good night and sweet dreams.
