Its been a weird week for me. I don't seem to know what I'm doing anymore. Like suddenly I lost that will or drive to go on. I'm not saying I don't want to live... Its more of not being able to embrace the good things in live. That got me thinking... Maybe I was taking everything for granted so right now when things start to slow down or mellow down, it all seems like theres nothing there.
For example, the littlest of things could get my attention/reaction, regardless whether it was being happy or angry. Right now, nothing seems to really bother me or make me happy, not that I'm unhappy. Not being happy isn't being unhappy either. My life has literally come to a standstill. I think the world is moving too slow for me. Why is that??? Why am I feeling this way??? Am I becoming an ADULT??? HAHAHAHAHA!!!
I find it really annoying whenever you walk pass someone and you smell that awful stench of BO(body odour). Worse is if that person is wearing a not-dried-properly shirt. AWWW! The smell!!! URK! I have been experiencing that ever since school started on monday. Some people just have no clue!!! I have to endure that after a whole day in school. Its worse if its in the morning on the way to school! Its a real turn off and a bad way to start the day >.<
Bad stuff aside, I'll try to talk about some good things that happened. Yeah, its really hard to think of any cos nothing good has happened lately. Ya, whatever...
Last month, Indonesia passed a bill to restrict access to pornographic and violent sites on the Internet, while parliament has yet to pass a controversial pornography bill that aims to shield the young from pornographic material and lewd acts.
Earlier draft versions contained provisions that could jail people for kissing in public and criminalize many forms of art or traditional culture that hinge on sensuality, sparking criticism it could curb freedoms and hurt Indonesia's tolerant traditions.
Seriously???!!! Are you sure Indonesia??? Come on! I think thats a wee bit too much! To think that these people can come up with such laws. Its the 21st century already. People are having sex with other people that they just met. I'm so glad I live in Singapore. No offence to Indonesia or Indonesians. I seriously think they should re-think their decision. The most, they should just have some designated spots that allow such acts, then maybe if they perform such acts at restricted areas, then only should they be penalized, which does not consist of being jailed but rather a warning and if it happens again, a fine???
Oh man!
Sunday 6 April
Another random pic I got off the road. The car license plate looks like 'exam'. Its actually EX44M.
Monday 7 April
Nothing much happened today. I met Dan and Daus in town to shop and have dinner. They did the shopping, along with someone else... HAHA! Roslyn was at Wheelock so she came to join us for awhile and she got a nice blue tube from topshop. No pic though... I can't be sharing all the good stuff =) We walked around after dinner and ended up at my place. We played a game of monopoly till Dan went bust. Yeah, theres always a first. I was supposed to send them home but my dad didn't allow me to take the car. Oh well...
Tuesday 8 April
The lovely plant Roslyn gave me... It has 3 new 'baby' leaves!
Its actually quite huge now. I bummed around at home today cos I didn't have to go to school. So I took extra care of it today. Hehe!
I went to meet March and Dan for a movie later in the evening. I also bought a new pair of Pumas! The one I have been eyeing since January. Its still only 10% off after so long. Oh well... Its worth the $90.90. Can buy 4-D. HAHA! Speaking about shoes, I was clearing out my old shoes and I realised I have 21 pairs of shoes!
Ya! I know. Thats a lot for a guy. 3 spike shoes, 2 sports shoes, and the rest are all going-out and casual shoes. Make a guess, which is the new pair I got... Its a brown Puma pair...
Can't wait for tomorrow. I'll be cooking breakfast for the lovely wwgg and doing a whole lot of other fun stuff... Once again, good things are best kept to yourself =) Nights!
I was browsing the web when I came across this article on Yahoo!. Seemed rather interesting. That got me counting how many pairs of sneakers I had or bought in a year. 3 Pony, 1 Vans, 1 Reebok, 1 Fila, and 1 DC Shoe Co. Hehe!
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - Got a passion for buying sneakers? It could be a good sign, with a poll finding that people who buy three pairs of sneakers or more a year are far more likely to be a leadership type that other people.
Mindset Media, a media company that examines personality traits of different consumers, found that people who buy more than three pairs of sneakers a year are 61 percent more likely to have the qualities of a modern leader.
These qualities were defined as having ideas and vision, and a style with others that is both inclusive and decisive.
The survey of 7,500 people, using market research group Nielsen's online panel, found multi-sneaker buyers were 50 percent more likely to be very assertive and 47 percent more likely to be spontaneous.
Lauren Arvonio, a spokeswoman for Mindset Media, said sneaker buyers were more likely to fly by the seat of their pants.
"It is often said you can tell a lot about a person by the shoes they wear, and now we have some hard data to back that up," Arvonio told Reuters.
"What is interesting is that these personality traits held true across the board, regardless of age, income, or gender."
Previous Mindset Media surveys found that people who pay their credit card bills off each month were more likely to be "highly deliberate," thinking through their actions, but also less modest than others, likely to brag about their habits.
