Some things have to be said.

Had a load of things to write about. But this blew me off man. Will write very very soon.

Epiphany

Just received news that a friend of mine passed away recently. Bolt from the blue indeed. Felt like I was poleaxed when I heard about it when my friend told me about it.

Strange isn't it... I wasn't even particularly close to him, and it's been nearly 10 years since I last saw him. But, found myself remembering past times, remembering the fact that he's barely into his twenties... like me, like all my other friends. And what's scarier is that feeling of helplessness that comes over you when someone you know or care about gets into something bad. And there's been more than I've ever thought possible in this few weeks.

Gods... it's terrible. Unbelievable almost. Guess we all feel immortal, all of us, we all know we're gonna die some day, but when? We never believe it'll happen to us. At least I never did. Eye-opener eh. Yaolong got into a car crash last week as well.. didn't seem like much to me then, just relieved he wasn't hurt. Now the implications hit me... all the what ifs, and what nots... Guess anything can happen, anytime. Carpe Diem. Live for the day. More than just a quote - guess I'd better live my life that way - enjoy it, never know what's gonna happen anytime. Heh.. easy to say that eh... hope I can actually pull it off.

Sad news aside, I still got lots of backlog of writing I've wanted to blog about. Yet reading my notes (yes i do take notes when i want to write something but haven't got the time - not that it helped this time), I think some have become irrelevant - or so backdated that I don't even feel like writing it anymore. Not that my feelings have changed - or the issues changed. Just feel weird writing about it. Guess that's more food for thought eh...

Anyways, here's a cool quote I found, that amused me rather - with the aptness of it all:

“According to most studies, people's number one fear is public speaking. Number two is death. Death is number two. Does that sound right? This means to the average person, if you go to a funeral, you're better off in the casket than doing the eulogy.” -unknown author

Some Dilbert comics to cheer myself up ;)
Bleh.. every found yourself being ignored/unwanted? Is that being overly sensitive or what? Sigh... don't know... and maybe don't wanna know either. Ugh

Laziness

Bleah... Been wanting to write SO many things for so long. But never got down to doing so thus far.
Will do it tomorrow as soon as I get back!

Haven't been able to keep to my diet & exercise plan fully... esp. the diet part. Argh.. sucks to be me *whine* ... at least still keeping up with the exercise portion. Ganbatte!

More updates tomorrow!

Some interesting comics from Dilbert (interestingly pertaining to what we learn in school, and our feelings about it!) :
