Gosh....i think this is my busiest day for the month of august. Seriously. I wake up to getsome clothes washed and then clear my room and cupboard and then i suddenly realize that we're leaving for Taiping tomorrow.....sheesh! So soon? And i thought the weekend was taking its time to draw near. So, basically its been getting all my stuffs ready, going to get bus tickets for the 3 of us leaving tomorrow and then planning my whole itinery for the next 2 weeks minimum in order to be in a stable condition.

So anyway, then i went to the temple to thank god for my results and do a special pooja and that took a bit of time. Then we had to go get a card at the mall for my uncle's birthday for which we're going up to taiping. He's turning 70. Gosh....would u believe that? It's not even the big five-o. It's like SEVENTY! Well i'll just reserve my sentiments to myself since i bet even he wouldn't be too happy about turning 70.

Anyway, today my blog is gonna be a bit the short since i have to get a few things done after this and my parents keep calling from the hall even though they don't quite need anything....ehehhe....parents will always be parents. When i'm in good mood, its nice to know that they miss me even though i'm a room away. When i'm in a bad mood, some of you have probably heard me complain my life story and how much of a pain in can be. For my mouth painful then to your ears i guess 10 times more painful huh? Awww....shucks....sowwy yeah? To those who have had to hear me unload some burdens.

I heard that my friend was sick today from another friend of course. Feel terrible i can't be there to see her. Maybe i can make it soon. We'll hope she ends up feeling a lot better. Take care of yourself and god bless you krystle. We'll be around for you no matter hoe long it takes.

Anywayz, it's good night for now. And my blog is gonna be idle for awhile since i'll be outta a computer again as long as i'm outta this house and that might even be for 2 weeks. If i manage to get access then i'll surely pen something k? Else i'll just have to update this site one shot when i get back. Good luck to me for Ericsson. And to the other xnetwork-ians, good luck as well yeah?

Hmmm.....its weird.....i don't seem to get life sometimes. Whenu least expect it opportunities come knocking and then when you hope its like u've been hit by draught u know? And yet, i've seen very optimistic people who tell me to never give up and keep on hoping on life. The same 'life' that chooses to mock my beliefs and toy around with my emotions like i'm abroad a neverending roller coaster. Then someday, that ride stops and i'm told that when i reach that time, i will be free of everything and anything and here i'm thinking "What if i don't finish everything i want to do within that ride?" Do i then wanna be secure myself with a seatbelt and not get out from the roller coaster of all human beings called life? Such is what makes up our days and night and yet we still go on persistently wih no clue as to how life will end or what lies before us in our individual horizons.

Today, i woke up pretty early....about 9.30 a.m.....pretty early by my standards lately.....and then i got inspired to get online and check up on my jobstreet applications. The regular 1-2 matches with no offers and then i go on to mail. Now this is a luxury i gave up on for around 3 weeks due to trips up to KL and then a stroke of bad luck with my modem getting fried in JB. Then as i was printing out some stuff and updating my site and talking to this certain Papaya i know, i got called by Ericsson. Like WHAM! Ericsson?! And yes....i mean the huge reknowned telecommunications company. Even MY mind's still reeling. After weeks of printing and sticking and typing and posting, i get called by a company i didn't even apply for. So i go tell my parents about my pending interview and i see their eyes light up with hope. Argh! The deadly weapon of anticipated guilt i will be going through if i should not get through this interview. Immaterial of how much i know, whether i qualify or meet their demands. I got an interview and that's more than what they need to know.

So after informing them, i come back and get my first genuine smile for the day. A nice feeling creeps inside as i think of my pending interview and as fast as that joy starts to spread a feeling of dread creeps stealthily into my heart as well and i shake my head and tell myself not to hope. Should i take this as a sign? Hmm....maybe....and maybe not. So the best thing i do is to wait and just take the day as it comes. No hoping as it will only bring hurt in the end. As terrible as this is to some of you out there, it happens a lot. Probably not just to me, the oh-so-paranoid one....but also to others who care not to be optimistic. Why you ask? Well....lets just say its been getting me through a lot of rough spots throughout my 21 years of this life. And its like a jinx if i suddenly start just hoping and not worrying....ehehehe....weird but true! :) Want one of those air-hammers to knock my head and hear it go "Boing!".....? :)

Meanwhile, i can plan for other things that i'm more sure of like wat to eat, what to watch on tv, what to wear, when to play with my pets and simple everyday stuff like that. And you know that best part of all? I'm actually savouring the moments i do everyday things for myself because i know i'm not gonna be remaining in this cushion of comfort for long.

That's it i guess for today....nothing else has happened. Had lunch, watched a vcd and then lazed around most of today and will be online awhile more but i think i've thought myself out for today. Seeya later alligator!
