20110705: Flying Time & Space

At half past 2011, it's the annual month of July again, the Sun has turned making nice shadow during early morning and hot late afternoons. The world is flying in a different time & space. Lady Gaga, big square phones with Identity, unforeseen natural disasters, 2 part final episodes & social networking.
It's the best of times, it's the worst of times, (IMHO) anytime is a good time to live in, as long as we're breathing.
Will the land open up like what we saw in movies about disaster?
will we experience an apocalyptic days without sky?
Some care, some doesn't, most are busy living their lives everyday to take note or lay their concern for this end to all meaning of existence.
Some even tried to force fear by announcing judgement day while the end didn't bother to come, hence causing skeptic non-believer like me to live another day.
If I were a farmer & thank the Sun for shining each day, would that make me a Sun worshiper? but since I'm not a farmer I would still be eating the vegetable simply shone by the sun, making me accountable for the thirst & hunger fulfilled by the enlightened of leaves. In the end, that is still indirect sun consumerism no matter how they tried to conceal or sugar coat it.
When talking about space, there might be a coincidence in how things come to be. Like the volcanic ash from Chile blown by the wind & harassing the air space over Australia. Never could I imagine, ashes as big as our feet, shooting up in the air, and then coming down on another continent across the sea. Didn't bother to really look it up in the internet, but I did found some stunning pictures of the volcanic eruption. Makes you wonder from the safety behind the screen, are those natural earthly entities? or green tights space suits humanoids master-stationing & manipulating the clouds?
What if tomorrow never comes? If it comes, I'll let you know tomorrow. Peace out dude. :D :D :D

20100628: Needless Things

I am surrounded by needless things (a.k.a clutter) due to the former habit of shopping & constantly picking up dead chicken. I'm not one of those impulse buying type though, I hope. Recently I have this stronger urge to reduce demand and increase supply so that the price of things will fall and they will become "ded-chickieen" for me to pick up. It's become like a cycle to achieve my goal, the only thing to do is to wait it out. Hmmm.

How did I conclude that I'm not an impulse buying type? First off, I seldom use my credit card, picking up points for exchange of gift is beyond me. I was having shopping session few days in a row with parents, siblings and friends. I found that people are more prone to spend when they're with their friends rather than relative. One thing is I did not spend money on buying my things during my parents' recent vacation here. LOL, except for the $10 France world cup Giordano T shirt on cheap sale. Hahaha (had to laugh at those Francee' for crashing out, next team I wanna sabo I will buy their T-shirt). For that except for paying for all my parents' shopping expenses, food and utilities stuffs, I didn't spend another single dime... So, only $10 for the whole 5 full days of my parents shopping getaway. Conclusion, I'm not one of them people who feel overwhelm by the hugeness of the high-class shopping center environment, seeing something overpriced and wanna show off they can spend their hardearned blood & sweat money against their normal better judgment in an air-conditioned place full of people waiting to service you with a smile as if their salary depended on it. Nah... not my thang.

This urge I had for reduce demand and supply, well... Me and my buddies conclude that after watching world cup we should do green tiles, green roofing and green everything. One of the goodness that becomes of this is to "j00" g00ogle map's accuracy satelite spy cam on our roof top. Going green and recycling maybe good for our earth. So, if we demand less, people will produce less & mnc company like the one I'm working for will have less customer demand so our supplied output will be less, hence reduction in OT working hours & green house gas emission & I can go back home while the sun is still up & have some quality time daily to update my blog instead of 1 time in 2009. That's the green life all stemming from watching world cup & insomia. Ding...

Ded-Chickieen, there are few types
1) Dead due to sick and throw out in trash.
2) Those kampung chicken crusing in mid air & kena windscreen.
3) Walk walk pok-pok & suddenly the "kai" pokkai drop dead from over feeding a.k.a heart attack.
4) Old & ripe enough to become brands essense of chicken
5) Chicken that wouldn't lay egg & won't die
6) Good chicken that got thrown out for no reason
7 ) etc . . .

Now about achieving my goals, I looking back I think I set them too easy. So, the only thing to do now is to wait.

20100614: Milestone

Sitting on the milestone, I looked back by the road,
This piece of rock marks a certain instance in our journey,
As the people pass us by, I turn & looked with my own eyes,
Their joyful face, non expression and innocence.

As I felt the cramp creeping up my leg, I knew it was time again for me to move on.
Good bye my dear friends and gang, we'll meet again where ever it may.

I wish all of you the health bliss & happiness.
Afterall, this is the only life we have, You only live once so find the meaning of it.

Cheers...

20100607: All That You Can't Leave Behind

Mixed emotion flow on Monday . . . for no reason. The weather this morning is as unpredictable as can be; what's certain is: "It's a good morning for sleep zzz."
Same as Saturday, I could sleep for hours on this morning which feels like a day after storm in a long vacation... cuddle up in bed like a chipmunk in winter.
W A I T UP!!! it's Monday, I could not do like a weekend. #$%^&* !!!Woke up ate breakfast and head off for work; following that day to day routine & timing. Heck, I could be a robot. except for the 24 hours thingy.
A seemingly serene monday on the working front; will knock off early to catch a movie (catch a Nightmare is more like it).
Seems I can leave it behind for now [ to do that, you'll have to be ahead a few layer ;-) ]. Chow.... baby.
Song from U2 "Walk On"
"Leave it behind
You gotta leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress up
All that you scheme
You gotta leave it behind"

20100524: I Remembered Like It Was Yesterday

Couldn't believe what happened this morning, a drop of bird 'droppingz" flew like a b o m & landed on my bed while I was just a few feet away. It needle-eye-ed through the window grill, my towel, my hanger and unstoppably shot like an arrow to its target.

I seems to recall similar incident happened about 15 years ago when I was in Kuching.

The difference is, now I stayed on the top floor in Singapore, flocks of mocking? birds flew by every morning, afternoon & night,

I guess this is "D" day they decided to practise their aim. @#$%^&*.

Well... no matter, there's good SUN these few days & I already washed the "thang" off quickly.

I wondered if those birds fancy the cloths we hung out as target practice bull's eye? Leave the bird brains for the birds. :-)

This motivated me to buy Jackpot, but my number didn't "kena" today's draw.

Like Robin Hood Senior said "They rise and rised again, until lambs become lions. . . Never give up. LOL.

20100505: Green Zoning

Staring from the greens, I took my coffee in the morning cold.
As I gaze out across the field, the misty air in front of me.
Slowly... the sun would rise, the yellow ray broke thru the white.
At the early dawn, not a human in sight, I can only hear my own delight.
Without reasoning or insanity, the sound of silence can never appear.
Just whisper... gentle on my left ear, it's time to awake from the warmth of bed.
