An empty…no I should begin with
something more positive. Happy New Year everybody! I do try to sound
enthusiastic at times. I have been watching Gaki No Tsukai… I should learn to
arrange my words better. Nah, on second thoughts I shouldn’t be too serious. I
have always been watching the aforementioned show what I meant to say, I watched
the latest one, the 2013 one. Without subtitles mind you. It was 6 hours long
and I enjoyed every minute of it. If there is one reason to anticipate the New
Year, this would be it. Every few minutes I would catch myself snickering at
the computer screen as if I had nothing to do with the world. So yea, the show
is sort of an escapism and very much so entertaining. Not for all though I’d
add.
I also just finished a book which
was the autobiography of APJ Abdul Kalam. It was impressive; I liked the
childhood, education and poetic parts of the book. The work part not so much. Maybe
because I didn’t feel the patriotism involved in the plot or it could be that I
felt that I don’t love my job enough to enjoy other people talking about how
much they love their job and how much passion they have for their career. Yes, bitter
indeed. Yes, I know it’s the wrong attitude.
I am pretty much bored. Yet I am
also feeling quite good for I am free and no one is bugging me. I hope I didn’t
jinx myself. Oh let’s talk about resolutions…I am pretty sure it was the same
as the year before and the year before that. Though, I’d like to fill my tiny
yet congested garden with more plants and flowers. You know because I am all
flowery and stuff. The irony.
I feel like I’ve lived for too
long to be excited for another year. It’s all about surviving, adaptability and
seizing opportunities, at least in this context. I am still trying to balance
all the aspects in life as to become a proper being. You know from physically,
financially, mentally and spiritually. I believe that a good human being is a well-balanced
human being.
I always think that upon writing
something and upon adding the letter, ‘I’ I appear so full of myself and
conceited. Am I really that self-reflective or in other words so insecure or….I
don’t know, again I shouldn’t be too serious nor should I care too much. Though
I still would prefer not to appear as like a person who thinks the world
revolves around him/her. You know, because I dislike those people. I hope I don’t
have to learn about myself as to how I have the same traits of the people whom I
dislike. Wouldn’t that be funny? In an un-funny way? Ha-ha
I bought an ice cream for someone
yesterday, the person only took a bite and then gave the ice cream back to me.
Oddly enough I happily finished the ice cream and yes, it was delicious.
I like being alone most of the
time…I don’t think that’s true. While I enjoy the company of me self, I enjoy
others too. Only that I am quite picky as to whose. You know, as you grow older
one has possessed the ability to most of the time differentiate who are
worthwhile and who are not. Also I think I keep on forgetting on how thankful I
should be for being granted many-many good friends from different backgrounds
and different ages. Again, I should be really thankful for having just a few best
friends who’d have my back when I am in need.
p.s. I just got back from one of
the big bosses office. What happened there wasn’t very nice. People were
bickering. The cause was as usual pride and arrogance. Not a good scene and
quite demotivating. Let us hope we become people with true sincerity and
humility. It is I think one of the most important and difficult of art/form one
could wish to achieve and strife for in one’s life.
That’s enough ranting.
Domo-arigato.
