IN THE ABSENCE OF LIGHT, DARKNESS PREVAIL
7 January 2008
Windy Monday (29 Degree Celsius)
Evening @ 1900 (Singapore Time)
Listen: 勇敢 by 张惠妹
Mood: *Where is the DAMN Cow, man!*
I have finally decided to put on hold a couple of my “very excitingly conceived” theories. Ha, cannot blame me, I am busy lah, and besides, I have decided to finish like 12 books in a month. After which, you can expect more EXCITING theories in the writing. Provided of course, I don’t die of boredom…
Anyway, I think I have overstrained myself at the Gym last week. The muscle aches are gone but the pains between the joints remain. Damn, I should have just gone for the free weights instead of machine assist. You know lah, Machine needs you to awkwardly position your movement. SO I am weak… no choice, life is tough.
Speaking of weak, I regretted taking those fucking cold tablets and should just let the cold viruses do me in. That is, make myself damn jialat until can die from cold symptoms then eventually, the body immunity fights back and bingo, recovered fully. The Pills on the other hand works on suppressing the viruses but somehow for some reasons, it just lingers here and there. DRATS. Till now, like 3 weeks later, still can feel a little coldness coming in and out of my life.
Hopefully I will be stronger and mightier come Friday. Damn, still have that half bottle of Martel left after the Friday’s drink session. So you see, must Drink. Drink is good, it numbs your sense among other things and for those temporal moments, it is only YOU that matters. Of course, the pretty waitress has got nothing to do with me going again. Haha…
Actually these drinking, self inflict pleasure and perhaps sex are not so different from say, our animal instincts. We are after all selfish little bastards and besides, we live on pleasure seeking and for some pain. Therefore Bird’s theory holds that hope, the quintessential element in mankind survival, is what nudging people doing stuffs that they otherwise would not have done on any given day. Seriously, why you think we enjoy doing things that only we could comprehend like shopping and sex for instance. Because, for that short period of time, we are actively making ourselves happy (so to speak) as opposed to say work, which I am inclined to label it as passive and just forget the worldly trouble.
In short, depending on your belief/religion/karma points, we are nothing more than animals. I know some of you might be inclined to disagree and I totally respect your belief (that is, after I drown you in warm beer and feed it to the lions). See, told you I am a democratic bird.
Oh yes, finally got a call for an interview. DAMN MAN… It is like 3 months! Well, as I always bullshit myself with; Have Faith. Ya, except that it get really bleak as the day goes. Not entirely my fault though, if any, I blame it on the weather. Ok, so maybe not the weather, still if I ever come to power, a lot of the CEOs will be in deep shit. Till then, need to eat some humble pie. But I do have a little problem; don’t think I can fit into any of my work pants (oh SHIT). See lah, eat, drink, sleep, rot so long lah. Lucky my various business suit pants are still (if my memory served me well), wearable.
On the humble pie thingy, BB has insisted that I applied for this FA job. I see the job title my knees buckled liao. And upon reading the job description, I can’t even feel my own dick… Seriously, why would they even consider a lowly bird? Now come the fun part, it is like any tom, dick or harry can apply for. The catch? Nothing apparently. Wait for them to call me up for interview. And according to BB, it is going to be one LONG interviewing sessions, that is of course I am invited in the first place. But she is right, I have to start somewhere, somehow…
I think it is appropriate also to track my progress for the New Year so here goes
Book: The World is Flat (Current reading)
Run: 5km (So far)
Wish me luck my fellow brethrens and sisters!
