'Random'
It seems a long time since I've blogged, and it seems that the end of the month is coming soon. It only means my holidays are ending and the university is starting. I'm pretty quite nervous and scared. For my entire 12 years of education in Singapore, never have I been so looking forward to my new school year or whatever you call it. It seems that I've been wanting this since I was in JC, but then when it is really there and ready for you take on, I dare not to go forward to take it. Probably this is what I say University jitters.
It seems my blog is somehow still alive and kicking till this day with some visitors to the tagboard. I don't blame people for not coming to my blog. In fact, having a tagboard there only imply one thing: You want people to come to your blog and comment on your entries. I too also wish to have people coming often to my blog and at least know an update of me, knowing that I'm still alive and kicking.
I sometimes do not really know what to blog about for there is really nothing that fantastic and good to blog about. I do not wish for this blog to become a daily life of mine type of blog. i would just be damn boring to the readers as well as the writer. There will always be a time when thigns get saturated, just a sugar solution. When you keep the glass of water constant at the room temperature, and you add sugar. You keep adding sugar and stirring it without adding water or even heating it, and there will be a time when the sugar can dissolve no more into the water. Same thing here. If a blogger sarts to blog about his or her everyday life, it would be interesting at first, but slowly it would start to get the nerves of the readers, and the readers would feel that it is repulsove and boring to read the blog entries anymore. This is the point of saturation. I really do not know what to write anymore. I think probably I wait till next month and write some more.
For now, the mind is a blank. And 'YOU' are running in mind, aren't you tired?

'When you..'
Sometimes I really do not understand why would I be dwelling on this topic of friends, but while I was on the way back from home, I couldn't help but to think about it.
I once heard people saying that friends are like our eyes. Our eyes never get a chance to meet each other, but they are able to blink together, tear together. I was wondering why friends could not be based on this principle. I was thinkin very hard, and I came up with some plausible theories.
Firstly, we are not eyes. We are humans. Being able to blink together, tearing together is part and parcel of the biological reaction. Imgaine if your eyes do not blink together, blinking as and when they want, or just a millisecond or even a nanosecond, I think it would quite a disaster fo the humans or even any living organisms that uses eye lids. Thus, the theory of eyes being able to blink together, tear together seems applicable only to a certain extent.
Secondly, the theory of eyes could probably be used in relationship between humans. If a relationship between any people is close, you could feel their safety and feeling. If you are superbly close, if something is wrong with the person, you would sort of feel it immediately with your sixth sense or even feel the true tone though a fake tone is used while talking or even messaging. I do not really know about this but probably the sixth sense is a bit far fetched. But I guess, if friends could be like the theory of the eyes, it would be quite perfect, and friends catching up once in a while would be fine. Perhaps once in like 1 to 2 months or even 5 months.
I guess I shouldn't really talk so much about friends, as I'm sort of not in the position to say or even say loads of opinion about it. I could not really understand what to do except just to be aware of my situation.
I was thinking of something to say and I think it's quite good as it was quoted from somebody and I guess I wouldn't want to say the name.
When you are in darkness, let me be your light and lead you out of darkness.
When you are tearing, let me the tissue to wipe your tears away.
When you are being gripped by fear, let me be the plier to ply away your fears.
When you are about to drown in sea, let me the buoy and help you safely to the shore.
When you are about to break down, let me the technician to reinforce your structure.
When you are feeling tired, let me be the bed where you can rest fully and comfortably.
When you are feeling happy, let me be the champagne and spread the joy with others.
When you are feeling upset, let me be the punching bag for you to let out all your frustration.
When you are feeling bored, let me the car to drive you around and cheer up.
When you are feeling at a loss, let me be the compass to give you directions.
When you wish to talk, let me the reciever on the other end.
When you have a problem, let me be the problem solver for you.
When you wish to pour out your sorrows, let me be the cup to contain your sorrows.
When you are unwell, let me be the nurse taking care of you and ensure your recovery.
I don't know what to say about this, however, I do wish if only I've got a chance to say all these. And if she could accept me, it would be such a marvel. However, it is all but a dream.

'I Do Not..'
I do not know but probably I am not a very good person to count on.
I do not know how to communicate with people.
I do not know how to relate to people.
I do not appreciate the beauty of friends.
I do not appreciate the talents that I probably have or probably no talents.
I cannot relate to people as I can relate to non living things.
I suddenly do not know why I've got such feelings, but it just dawned on me about these when I recalled what happened on last Saturday. I still could not comprehend what was discussed and understand the differences pointed out. I could not understand that if both communicating and talking is some form of communication, why can't the word just be talking and get over with it. I understand that an effort is made to differentiate the word 'communicating' and 'talking' with a factor of 'heart to heart'. However, I feel it's not necessary.
I think both are the same as for the factor of 'heart to heart' is subject to each individual. Some people would just listen with their heart and try to understand; or there will be some people who would just listen, and if you tell them that you wish for a 'heart to heart' talk, they will still listen with their heart, and give advice from the bottom of their heart. However, a heart to heart talk would not necessary mean to meet face to face and talk. It could also be done through all other means of communication such as emails, SMS, MSN chat or evn a telephone call. Inventions of communication tool are there to help us and easing up the path of communication. Why would one still want to meet face to face is then said to be communicating with heart to heart? I could not comprehend this fact well.
Recently, my tone of speaking is said to be more sacarstic. It is probably that I did not notice it myself, for last time I do notice it and would soften the blades. However, I finally realise that these blades cannot be as soft as I tuned them to be, but rather, they are blunt but has high damaging power. Probably this is the after effect of working in a highly political situation for a long time. You would always have to be very careful over the choice of words you use, using sacarsm to poke and get back at who you wish to get back. My apologies if the sacarsm had gotten you. However, normally my choice is not sacarsm, for the sacarsm I used would still be much more obvious. If you feel that I have shot sacarsm at you, you just feedback. Should sacarsm be shot at you again, you are probably the target. If you got an explanation from me about the sacarsm, it would only be the fact that you think too much into my words and choice of tone or language I used. I don't mean anything, I will apologise to you if I do. However, if you step on my tail, and a little sacarsm should be acceptable right?
I really do not know what to write anymore, however, what are the most important is the weight loss and this erratic mood control. If not, I'm in for a terrible shit.

'Laugh! Why so unhappy for?'
Some funny pointers to be shared:
Lesson 1:
A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings. The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs. When she opens the door, there stands Bob , the next-door neighbor. Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.' After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves. The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs. When she gets to the bathroom,her husband asks, 'Who was that?' 'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies. 'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'
Moral of the story: If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidableexposure.
Lesson 2:
A priest offered a Nun a lift. She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg. The priest nearly had an accident. After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg. The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again. The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?' The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.' Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way. On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'
Moral of the story: If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.
Lesson 3:
A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp. They rub it and a Genie comes out. The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.' 'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.' Puff! She's gone. 'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.' Puff! He's gone. 'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager. The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch'
Moral of the story: Always let your boss have the first say.
Lesson 4:
An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing. A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?' The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.' So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.
Moral of the story: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.
Lesson 5 :
A turkey was chatting with a bull. 'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.' 'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.' The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree. The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the secondbranch. Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree. He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.
Moral of the story: Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..
Lesson 6:A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field. While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him. As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was. The dung was actually thawing him out! He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy. A passing cat heard the bird singing and came toinvestigate. Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.
(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.
(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!
Have you had a good laugh? Laugh more, it's healthy why bother keeping your face so glum or unhappy?
