Read My Mind.

"The most depressed individuals are, more often than not, the ones who try to make others laugh. At their expense or not, I can’t really decide. But I do know that they do that in order to get themselves infected with laughter. If not, their humour wouldn’t be as wry, quick-witted or insanely weird."

"Laugh if you must. The last thing I need now is not being able to."

On the brighter side of things, today is the 21st birthday of a dear friend of mine, Selvakumaran. We’ve been friends for nearly 12 years. Happy 21st birthday, chap. Cheers and let the good times roll. Do what you do best, party on. =)

Absolute Blasphemy.

My considerably short pseudo-holidays ended quite abruptly and life
resumes as it is, no more less than lightning pace with barely any
break time in between to even catch a breather; with the usual 2 hour a
day lectures (which seems like an eternity), vexatious PBL’s, piling
reports, ever-demanding CSU sessions, and not to miss out, the non-stop
elevating stress levels of which I utterly dread looking forward to. I
guess it’s pretty much high time to work my ass off yet again, hitting
the books, enduring late nights burning the midnight oil with little or no rest
at all, over-dosing on caffeine and my personal favourite, catching
forty winks during repro lectures. Farewell precious holidays and good
night sleeps, welcome to living a life in a modern day hell where
lecturers are portrayed as demons conveying medical jargons through
lectures, as a form of auditory torture for the sins that I have yet to
commit. Pure madness. Still, I am available for yum cha-ing outings
along with the occasional lunches, as well as a few sessions of window
shopping. Simply beep me. Grocery shopping included. I know someone is
very happy to hear that.

I find that when I write, I make more sense than when I speak, not
that my writings are of any good as compared to the millions of
brilliant minds out there. I suppose it’s best to assume that I express
myself better in written words as to when I actually speak, or so I’m
told. When it comes to opening my mouth, I particularly tend to
complicate uncomplicated things like say, choosing the wrong words to
use and probably end up screwing up something when there can be
absolutely no way of screwing things up. My life is somehow closely
associated with making a mess made out of nothing. But, it isn’t
entirely my fault. Occasionally, or should I say, there’s always a time
when an unsettling presence out there with it’s sole purpose of
existence simply to disrupt everything in my way, comes my way. It is
plain annoying and it drives me insane, to the point where there’s no
telling as to what I am capable of doing. Murder? Nah, I’m not Jack the
Ripper, I don’t go around butchering people and ripping out their
intestines or hearts while mutilating the bodies with a surgical knife
just to feed my addiction for blood and gore. Let’s just say that if I
don’t bother to control myself, I’d kick that sorry son of a bitch in
the gonads real hard without any holding back or whatsoever.

###

I respect people for who they are and I expect people to
respect me in return. Life is mostly about giving and taking. You can
take whatever you want from me, but hey at least, show me some respect
the way I respect you even if everybody else thinks you’re a lowland
piece of shit craving for attention to satisfy your gargantuan ego, for
I am not a mat on the floor for you to step on. If you consider
yourself a level above the rest, royalty perhaps, go ahead and be my
guest, it’s your life and it’s none of my concern, just don’t go around
stepping on my tail and pissing me off. Seriously, go bugger a dog or
two for the good of all humanity. Simply because I appear nice and all
doesn’t mean that I’m a nice person. In fact, I’m not even nice to
begin with. Just so you know, don’t fucking mess with me but in case
you do, do watch your tail, I bite.

What goes around comes around, just you wait. Ciaoz.

Forza Man Utd.

Tuesday, May 8th, 2007

The past week was pretty eventful I’d say. First up, the good and pleasant news; The Red Devils triumph over The Blues to claim the Barclay’s English Premier League title for the 16th time this season, many many thanks to The Gunners who did us a huge favour by holding out Chelsea to a 1-1 draw at the Emirates stadium, courtesy of a Gilberto Silva penalty conversion, putting an end to Chelsea’s 2 year tenure at the top of the Premiership table. They deserve not to win once in awhile lah, you can’t expect them to entirely dominate English football and lift every single trophy there is right, no? Moving on to the not so good news; Poor Charlton was condemned to relegation last night by Tottenham strikers Dimitar Berbatov and Jermaine Defoe after 7 years in the top flight. To be honest, I kinda wanted Charlton to remain in the Premiership. With the likes of Darren Bent and Luke Young, I really do think they should have made the cut, but too bad life isn’t always fair, after all isn’t the Premiership all about the survival of the fittest (or the richest in Chelsea’s case)? Speaking of stuff other than football, a dear friend of mine got into a little accident in front of my house on the night Manchester United lifted the Premiership trophy. Regarding what happened, I have absolutely no words or rather I choose to not say anything, except the fact that it literally scared the living daylights out of me because I was inches away from where it happened.

Anyways, almost everyone whom I know of is in the holiday mood of late. Some of them have three months (lucky buggers), some of them, two months and the not so fortunate ones probably have maybe one or two weeks of holidays left? I have approximately 120 hours of holiday-ing left. Make that 119 hours. All the laughs are on me. Just when repro classes are about to start, my computer is beginning to go bonkers. I can’t use my Internet Explorer to log on into Hotmail, Yahoo, or even Gmail! Bloody hell. And to make matters worse my MSN is not working as well. KNNCCB X 100. I am therefore cut off from the world of instant-messaging until this problem resolves on its own, which would probably never happen unless I reformat the computer. All these computer problems that I have to deal with will only hasten any action of mine involving me getting a laptop, which I would very much like to delay first, until I am a 100% sure that I’ve made the right choice in selecting a laptop. That’s that.

Next up, ah yes, the Champions League…

I instantly knew at the back of my head that AC Milan was going to thrash Man Utd at the San Siro the moment reports stated that Gattuso (The Mafia of all Mafia’s) was fit for the 2nd leg of the semi-final match. How can any human go against a shit-ass-scary-monster like him? It is not possible I reckon, unless perhaps if you have another shit-ass-scary-monster in the form of a 28 year old Roy Keane at your disposal. Truth to be told, AC Milan deserved to win the match, they managed to dictate the pace of the game and Man Utd was nowhere close to scoring. With Kaka, a prominent figure in Milan’s attacking line up, coupled with some poor defending by the Man Utd lads, it was clear that AC Milan was going to cruise their way to the finals in Athens, where they would outplay Liverpool in all departments and go on to win the Champions League. Heh. Sorry lah, Liverpool fans. =P

Okay, I guess I’ve said enough. Adios and enjoy your day! =)
