TAG-ed

I can't believe I got TAG-ed.
Worse, I can't believe I am following this TAG ritual.

Thought #1 I hate chain mails. Especially useless, annoying ones. And instead of forwarding it, I always delete it. Which is why I am surprised I am writing this.

Thought #2 Kids have great ambition. This is before they get jaded and cynical. I remember I wanted to be a teacher, pilot. I think I wanted to be something else every 6 months or so. I don't think I ever thought about how much each profession made.

Thought #3 When you are asked to think about anything, thats when you go "what should I think about" And when you are trying to tell yourself not to think so much, you end up thinking "don't think so much" over and over again. Freaking annoying and ironic.

Thought #4 Good tasting food are not as healthy, as food that tastes bland. Maybe its just a mind trick. The forbidden food, like oily fatty stuff, sweets, tastes yum yum.

Thought #5 I just went through a filtering, to decide what I need to put down. Some of the stuff, too personal, some other stuff, to related to what I just said, its almost like a continuation. If we were bold and fast enough to write down everything we think, we'd be tired for sure, but would we be happier?

ok, thats all.

Hee Hee..

I got a new testimonial!
I looooove testimonials. Thx thx!

I had a huge list of to do things for this wkend and how much did I get done, not much at all.
I spent most of today, visiting places and going with friends to check out new houses.
Saw some really cool, spanking new places. Damn expensive as well. We saw a bunch of half a mil places. Its really nice, and we were kidding around how 6 of us should just get it and 2 peeps share 1 level. So, its like a condo/apt with 3 levels, each level has its own room, washroom and living room, with the kitchen on the main level only.
Its actually pretty depressing to look at those places, because it only makes you realize that you dont have the means.
Of course, these nice places are good for more than just 1 person.
I was talking to this dude on Sat nite, and he bought a place, with a drive of 35 mins to work, with no traffic, so with traffic it takes an hour or so, or a lot more if its rush hour.
I just think its crazy and the reason he bought it there, was cheaper for the space. A 4 bedroom with 1 person living in it only. Good thing is, he is getting it for investment purposes and he plans to sell it next year. Bad thing is, horrible traffic and it doesn't help that gas now costs an arm and a leg.

Anyways, can't compare. I am still busy trying to figure things out for myself. =)

I took a jager bomb last nite. It was nasty. I didnt know how it would taste like. I can't believe they mixed Red Bull with Jager. I had a slight after taste of cough syrup or something medicinally with the jager bomb. Yuck!

Went to the bookstore yesterday and happened to pick up this book, titled "20 something, 20 everything". It talks about the quarter-life crisis, faced by many of us. And specifically, it is speaking towards a female audience. It was actually pretty scary to be reading it and relate a lot to what is actually being shared by other people. It asks a lot of questions, which I still don't know answers to. I had to put it down, because I was almost scaring myself, with all those questions. I am thinking about picking the book up, and just coming to terms with what I want to get out of life now. :)

Interests

Its sad to know that I don't do a lot of things outside of work.
I have a list of things I want to do and life I don't want to just pass by me, but I barely notice it slipping as I slouch over my desk.
I am debating about money vs career vs life.
I do want it all, but at what cost?

A lot of "I"s in this post, but I feel finding a balance is important to me. I am only stiffling myself by doing nothing. Not to mention all work and no life makes me a stressed out person. And stress hurts.

Plus, I am paying for my gym without using it. I should make use of my membership. Thats my goal for now.
Also, I want to pick up something else. Learning new things, make things, do little things I like. I miss all that, without realizing it until now.

Some of my friends are going back to school. I want to too, but not yet? Will I have trouble picking school up again?

........ er..... .......
memory lapse! thats all!

Wireless

Its good to have wireless connection. I am able to update my blog now, while I am waiting at the dealership for them to service my car. Why can't I take a loaner? Well, for one I don't want to drive back and drive here again. Its too far.

Anyways, so I have been able to do a lot of my email catching up using free wireless here. However, there is this girl who is also waiting for her car's service and she was flipping through a magazine. I move from the couch to a table, where I can put my laptop down so I can type properly and she also moves to sit somewhat behind me. I mean its a huge space and there are so many open seats. Heh.. I am sure she just decided to plop down there because of some interesting magazine, but still. =p

Not a lot new. I am trying out G Talk now. I have only IM-ed 1 person so far and haven't used the "call" feature yet, so its too early to give an opinion on that. Very simple so far. Maybe too simple? But I believe simplicity is important, because its all about simplicity for G products.

I should seriously start watching my finance but once you decide to watch what you spend, you feel like shopping all the more. Its really weird, but I haven't been shopping much lately, at least I don't think so. And now that I know I should watch my spendings, I just want to go shopping and getting stuff. Maybe its the stress. You know shopping is an awesome stress buster. But its only temporary. The stress comes back in greater dosage when bills appear.

I think I need a change. Change something. We'll see how things go.
