Well hello there!

I guess TV makes many things look better than it really is
Is a mid-life crisis really that bad? I mean, maybe its just me watching too much TV. But all the men I've seen on TV going through a mid-life crisis don't look too shabby. Slouching on couches, beer in hand, drunk, untidy room, watching TV or playing video games, scruffy beard. WHAT'S NOT TO LIKE IN THAT PICTURE?! Sitting at home all day, enjoying TV, video games and getting wasted while you're at it. On a daily basis! I'd say that's the life right there. And if I had to guess, a mid-life crisis would be working really hard to earn money so that you can eventually, in the bigger picture, enjoy the fruits of your labour but in turn you find yourself working so hard to earn that money that you get sucked into this really thick vortex of working really hard and you can't escape and you realise that you're not enjoying anything anymore at all so you quit your job, take all that money you've earned and by that time you've forgotten how to enjoy yourself so you just sit on your couch and waste your fortune off on booze, grow a scruffy beard and that to you, is enjoyment, making up for all those lost years of slaving for nothing that ever was of any importance to you and then you realise that this isn't enjoyment, this is a mid-life crisis. And that is where it begins. After the realisation. You start going back and forth. Should I go back to work, should I stay like this, this seems fun, I don't want to work, you get tired of doing this every single day so by the end of the day you drink yourself half to death and you wake up with a splitting headache but after awhile you don't feel it anymore. And by that time you'd be able to think clearly and continuously about what you should do in your life. But you still keep drinking, it doesn't work anymore because you've drank so much you're almost immune to the effects of alcohol and by then, all the money you've worked so hard for has been wasted on getting wasted. And that my dear readers is when you get back on your feet and start your life over, to get more money of course. But that's just me, if I had to guess.

There is a fundamental flaw in the line "Forgive and forget". Forget forgiving, just forget. That works too.
To err is human. To forgive, divine. That's a whole load of cliche crap. That's just an excuse used by the entire human population to get every other member of the human race to forgive one another. Here's one for the modern era, and for the ingenuous crowd: To err, is human. To really screw things up, that's human too- Assisted by technology and/or nature.

Again, School is useless.
Its done. Its cleared. The windows are open. Life begins (or ends) now. Exams are over and done with. Time for everything else. Or nothing at all. In a way, I pity all these subjects. Because in the coming months, I will forget everything. All that I have worked hard for will be reflected upon a grade and that's all folks. Select all, delete!

Divine intervention
Dear God,

Please give me the strength to go pull through this dire time. Give me the will to carry on so I won't falter. I will be ever so grateful. And I will accept whatever help you grant me. So please, I beg you, grant me a car.


P.S. I love you

God probably works more like this
Dear God,

I realise that I have asked for too much. And the outcome of my wish is solely dependent on my actions. So I picked out a car that I liked. And stole it. Therefore, I hope you will forgive me for this sin.

But why
Why is it that to have a sweet tooth, means to have a fondness or craving for sweets. I mean, if we actually had sweet teeth. Who needs sweets?

My sister is a mean cuss. But then I guess most older sisters are mean cusses. Don't get me wrong, I mean that in the most heartwarming of ways. She once told me to make syrup sweeter, add more water instead of adding more syrup. I believed her. That was the last time I ever believed her.

Before this
Before I was ever academically inclined. I was a brat. I watched a lot of TV and my results were just borderline. I really couldn't be bothered. But my parents were a pain in my, at the time, cute little buttocks. Always wanting me to study, always giving me heat. They'd criticise me, say that I was lazy, my attitude is horrible and whatnot. They'd assume I was one of the worst students in my class. And I'd always say to them, "Mr Miyagi say, no such thing as bad student, only bad teacher."

! Fear not my friends
Exams round the corner. I do some of my best thinking under pressure. Mm ba ba de Um bum ba de Um bu bu bum da de
Pressure! Pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure! That burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
Um ba ba be Um ba ba be De day da Ee day da
that's O.K. !
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out !'
Pray tomorrow, gets me higher
Pressure on people - people on streets
Day day de mm hm Da da da ba ba
O.K. !
Chippin' around - kick my brains around the floor
These are the days it never rains but it pours
Ee do ba be Ee da ba ba ba Um bo bo Be lap
People on streets - ee da de da de
People on streets - ee da de da de da de da
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming 'Let me out !'
Pray tomorrow, gets me higher high high~
Pressure on people - people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love
But it's so slashed and torn
Why - why - why !?~
Love love love love love
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance
Why can't we give love that one more chance
Why can't we give love give love give love give love give love give love give love give love give love
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And loves dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure....

Does this guy not have anything else to do?
So yes, Olympics are on. And I love my sports, and I really have nothing better to do. More like I don't feel like doing anything else. Anyway, as I was watching the olympics, athletics was on. Women's Heptathlon Javelin Throw Group A. A pleasent surprise greeted me. There on the screen, was a pretty face stepping up to take a throw. So I was like, well okay, so there are a couple pretty faced sportswomen in the world. Then, I saw another pretty face, then another one, then another one, and another one! This is the best olympics ever! I get to watch sports! AND cute girls! I mean, their bodies are probably more muscular than mine, but they have pretty faces.

The olympics
Woohoo! Olympics are here. Phelps is inhuman. Singapore's finally gotten a medal. We are no longer a loser country! And some events in this are absolutely dumb. Take the 20 Km walk. That's a good walk gone wrong. The competitors are coming in all sweaty and out of breath. If you just tuned in, and you wonder, what event did they just complete? And you see that is the 20 Km walk. WALK. Now that really messes with your mind. When did a walk ever get that tiring?!

Showing you how
La, I've got to tell you I'll make it better. But I know there's something I needed to say when I was out. So maybe you were better alone, I know I'll make it home. She told me sweet thing, run a labour in your shoes. Touch me 'till I follow in love. I want to help her but maybe we were better alone. I want to show you how and then we walked out make it made now. I said I want it but I'm never alone. I want to show you maybe we were something uncool. I want to make you sing.
