Random Blabs

I recently read a note written by a friend somewhere online. It struck me instantly, on how people change over time; that with each event that took place in one's life, we're slowly changing. We will never be the same person we used to be, whether we like it or not because every single thing you experienced in life leaves a mark in you.

Things happen. We forgive, forget and get over it. Back to square one, or so you thought. Every square one might not be the same as before. Because as a person, we grow. It's a constant process and it's not in our control to stop changing.

We sometimes fail to understand events that take place in our daily lives, people's reactions, choice of words, every conversation you've had, every single person you knew, strangers alike,how things unfold they way they did.

Beyond control they were.

It's up to us to not let ourselves be affected.

Oit, DONE!

Sometimes we got so engrossed in work that we forgot the very essence of quality time and the corporate world humour.

We work with impossible bosses with impossible deadlines. Impossible deadlines means losing your sanity and when you have a bunch of cockoo people, things don't go in a straight line.
On top of that throw some of the most impossible people ..

"I want this, yesterday."

"Meeting starts at 9. If you're here at 9, you're late."

Impossible deadlines puts everyone under pressure. This is a chain reaction. Your boss give you impossible deadlines because his boss is giving him the same impossible deadline, if not worse. So he's simply "cascading" his pain to you, and subsequently you to others.

I want this line and this paragraph to be amended. Change all the reports.
1 months later (testing included), DONE!

We need to change this field, change the layout, change the colours. We need to interface with this this and this to get maximum slice of the pie! Get this done, no matter what.
3 weeks later, DONE!

I am not happy with this. We're incompetent. We need to revamp this entire system. Find a replacement.
DONE!

You will notice how different things used to be and how things are now. Small things used to take longer time to be completed. As time goes by, the more impossible, the more massive the project size, the shorter time it takes. We don't like things to complicate things and we like to keep the peace.

DONE. DONE. DONE.

The Laws of Attraction

I don't know how to explain this.
In Hokkien, they call it "miao yen".
In Bahasa Melayu, "Jodoh Kucing"?
In English, I haven't figured out a term for this yet.

Honestly, have you ever been stared at by cats?

This cat actually came running when I was walking up the stairs while holding a can of 100Plus in hand. Okay this one didn't stare at me, he was looking at that can of 100Plus. Guess cats don't just live in a place, they behave like they should be. Badminton Hall resident the blue eyed cat.

God.

Mamak cat. Can't even see the face. He walked over when I took a seat at one of the chairs. -_-

Is this getting ridiculous?

I realise its not food. Cos I wasn't eating or having any food source with me. Or do I smell like food?

Either they stare or they give me this look.

Other's will give me this. Back rubs and rolls.

What do you think?

Outrageous

I'm sitting in this hall listening to a lot of crap. I couldn't keep count of how many times I rolled my eyes.

It's no doubt that everyone is affected by the slowdown in the economy, white collar workforce not spared. Even though The mothership Did not face direct hit, but everyone seem to be jumping at chances to blame it on the economy and make some quick cash.

I'm absolutely TL.

Find me a readable piece of news

Do we get more insights when we observe hard enough?
Or does it come quite easily? Just a glance?
Or do we always act smart and always think that we were right about everything?

A wound might heal over time.
A scar remains for the rest of your life.

There are things I don't know how to deal with.
It's far beyond what my current state of mind is capable of.
Or so I thought.

I've got some thinking to do.

See ya.

Winds of Change

We don't know what space looks like.
Where's the starting point and where exactly is the end point.
Scientists claim that it's expanding and accelerating as days go by.
New planets are discovered, way beyond our solar system.
Could there be another planet like Earth?

Weather's gone crazy
Wild fires, flood, storm and drought
Humanity fighting new diseases and viruses
People dying
Lakes are drying
Glaciers melting
Oceans rising
Nothing is as predictable anymore.


Is it time for us to be responsible for the damage we've done to our planet?
