If I fall along the way

Something weird & funny happened yesterday. Actually, it's up to you to decide whether it's funny or weird or funny & weird. It depends on you look at life really. Anyways... It was a sunny & hot morning. I should have came out 15 minutes earlier. Now I'm gonna be late. Yeas, I can see the future. I tapped in 4 minutes late. That's a few dollars cut off my salary. Shit. I need all the cents I can scrap to get a ps3 by May. Another hopeful plan. That makes 3009. In my haste, I forgot to get myself a bottle of water. It really comes in handy. It keeps me from getting dehydrated. & looking at the weather, I reckoned I'm gonna need it more today than any other days. After a three day streak of rain at work, after going through three months of non rainy working days, I'm starting to enjoy working while raining. I get to wear this cool looking raincoat. I was brought down to earth by the intergrated weather application on my phone. It showed a Sun on S...

My Oasis from the living dead

Image
This is my happy place. My oasis from the hectic life I go through. I know I'm only there to work but whenever I step into the area, all my troubles fade away like ashes blown. Oasis's have a reputation of not existing but I can vouch for it this time. It is far from being just a mirage. I've always wanted to grow a beard since I was 16. The year before, I witnessed the best looking beard spotted by Germany's striker Kevin Kuranyi. I concentrated more on watching his great looking goatee than Germany's wayward football on the pitch as they were dumped out of the euro 2004 in the group stages. I decided a few months later that I needed to grow some sort of facial hair to attract girls. It's was the best idea I've ever had. I planned to sport a beard that will bs attached to the moustache & then be combined with my sideburns. Add that with a thick & long hairstyle & you'll get a boy who looks 30 years his age. Imagine how many girls are gonna...

You are what you drink

Have you ever liked someone so much so that you'd try to find her on facebook? Or how bout this then. You like someone so much, you try to find someone else with the same name as her because she'll never accept you. I can only say one thing for the aforementioned scenarios. You'll never find her. I'm speaking from experience. You'll find all sorts of people who shares the same name as her. & that will be the only thing they have on common. I know it hurts but what's another hurt in a hurtful life? Only once have I found someone I was looking for on facebook. It's easier when you know her name & which school she's studying at as the filters narrow the search. But yea, there are people with the same name in the same school as hers. This is always bound to happen unless she has a cool & unique name. But you wouldn't want to be going out with a girl with a hugely outstanding & impressive name like 'Nguejkh' or 'Warzsillikii...

La La Lie/Love

After seeing her for the first time last year, I wanted to see her again for the second time. I never thought I would though. What's more surprising is that I saw her for the third time just now. I know, it's crazy. But it's too true to be a miracle. Cuz miracles are magical. & magic is a myth. Too bad though I wasn't well prepared for those two encounters. If i include our first meeting, that would make it three. I should stop. Its only gonna hurt me more. I should prepare myself for things like these beforehand, even if the chances of it happening is 0.0329%. Because, life is unpredictable. This has never happened to me before. I never saw a girl I like again after seeing her for the first time so I never thought I'd see her again last week. But it happened. Nnow that it's happened, I guess it will never happen again. At least for the next 20 years it won't. I never even wanted to go to the competition hall today due to the lack of team members. Also, ...

The rock of Gibraltar

Recently, someone from work asked me why I nicknamed myself Gibraltar. Alot of people had asked me a out it before this. Some couldnt even pronounce the word. Well at least she managed to pronounce it right. The only reason she knew the nick is because I added her on facebook. Big mistake. I told her it was a long story so it's better if we skip it. But then she told me to cut the story short. I told her where's the fun in short stories. Also, even if I were to cut the story short, it will still be long. Just like a 4 year old kid who won't give up till she gets her candy, she insisted that i tell her what Gibraltar is at least. So I told her. No tears or anything flowed down her cheeks. Perhaps because she doesn't know the whole story. I guess to some people, the rock of Gibraltar don't mean much. It doesn't bear any significance actually but it does to me because of the promise I am determined to uphold. The person I promised to may have long forgotten about i...

My delivery system of honesty

I dont know why they invented the saying, 'quit while you're ahead'. Because of it, i ended up developing the mentality of quitting whenever im ahead. Imagine being in an F1 race where you start from the last position. You make your way to the pole position only to quit halfway as you're ahead of everybody else because you're preaching 'quit while you're ahead'. Its preposterously stupid. How bout this little scenario then. Liverpool players leaving the football pitch after scoring the 1st goal in the 1st minute. What are the fans gonna do if they change the rules that way in football? People flying in to merseyside from different parts of the world buying expensive tickets just to experience a live EPL match will have shortlived joy as the match ends only after a minute. I've always hated the golden goal rule. Yeap. But this is by far more heartwarming. I may have interpret it wrongly. Perhaps the saying is more for liars & gamblers. To stop lyi...
