Happy holidays people. Yupps. It's been quite a long time since I last recorded the events and happenings of my life. It's been rather swell I suppose? Not like there's much to cheer about but who cares, everyday's a new day and aren't we supposed to take each day at a time?

I guess the reason why many people aren't really happy with their lives' cos they think a tad too much about what they want and how others are better at things that they want to excel in too. Or rather, some take things too personally, refusing to let their egos subside and allow it to rule their heads. I'm not sure about others but I do know that I've been happier these days, mainly due to the fact that I've been taking each day at a time. Don't get me wrong, I do plan for the future and make detailed plans and analysis of what's to come. All I'm saying is that we don't expect too much from others and the world. Instead of hoping the world falters and that we will be able to capitalise upon it, why don't we make the most of the situation and just hope for the best? Afterall, isn't living all about experimenting? Who's to say that we're second best, just because we didn't reach the top? I guess reaching the top's not all that important but rather, how we reach the top or how we attempt to reach the top's more important. Reaching the top's just a recognition of our work. But if that's the only thing that's going to push you to reach the top, then I guess on a personal level, it isn't really very appealing. Why do we need recognition to do things? I donno. Maybe it's due to that lil 5% of our brain or that male, ego-centric behaviour that most of us have. Not that I'm stereotyping, but apparently that's how things work? Pardon my lack of general knowledge. Haha.

Been reading a lil and also watching the NG series "My Brilliant Brain". I conclude that it is such shows that make people want to slash their wrists or want to jump from the Conrad or even from Bukit Timah Hill, hoping to roll down the hill and bump their heads into some rock that's so unfortunately placed there. We all aim to be that top 0.1%, often forgetting that we're in a much better position than 50% of the rest of the world. Aiyaiyai! Tsk Tsk! It's not wrong to want to strive for the best, I mean, that's what living's all about too, giving your best in everything you do but I guess it's bad to expect too much. Notice how we're always going in circles? Haha. Righto!

The week's been rather nice. Got to spend some quality time with certain people, had lots of fun, caught up with friends and yupps, it's been a rather nice holiday and festive season. Hope it's the first of many? I'm not sure, but I do know that I won't forget this season in a hurry. Give chase! Time's running away like never before. Was talking to Ah Lian on MSN last night and boy oh boy! Didn't really occur to me that 18 years past since my first Christmas. What did I say about time running away?

Happy holidays my friends.

It's been quite a rough week. Lots of things happened and I don't really suppose they're all that good. Took it out on certain people and I'm pretty upset that it kinda got to my head. So erm, yea, sorry to all those I kinda took it out on.

Having said that, I guess that's not a valid excuse. So erm, yea.

A's been over for quite some time and I guess it isn't really that fun either. Oh wells.
