Boy.. i wanted to write on my birthday but then i ended up not.. and now it is more than a week later only did i finally pull myself up to write one. Hmmm.. i actually thought of quite a lot of stuffs to say as i reflected on my birthday but i now seem to have lost quite most of it.. and this is my first post of the new year 2010!
I suppose i really have to stop procrastinating.. i now remember that i wanted to blog only after i have replied people's birthday wishes on Facebook, but i think i am just halfway done so if i go by the rate i am going, this post might just be written in Feb or March -.- so i decided not to wait.
Yup, procrastinating can just be my bane, (or something like that, if i did not use that word wrongly -.-) but, my memory too, i think. I think i can remember well but i forget stuffs easily, even recent stuffs.. well, the stuffs are still there in my head, and once i am reminded, i can recall very well. So as i am typing this, i realised, perhaps the solution to not easily forget stuffs is that i need to recall them often.
[after some 11 hours]
Yup.. i think i have lost my train of thoughts after taking a break to go for lunch when i started writing this post.
I have been thinking, of course, throughout the whole day on what to say. And i suppose it is true (for me, perhaps), that in order not to be forgetful of the things i have done and those that happened around me, i think i better recall and reflect on the stuffs that happened throughout the day by the end of the day before i sleep.
Why do i suddenly decided that i should be writing all these down today? Because i woke up early this morning from some dream whereby i was facing the consequences of procrastinating, having not completed the tasks that i am supposed to be doing and in the end, having to rush here and there. Thinking about it now, i can't really remember the details that made me felt so rushed (i actually ran here and there in the dream and it being so real, made me felt exhausted and tired when i woke up from it) but i suppose it is clear enough that i should buckle up and change. I think it is definitely a wake up call from God.
So yeah, what have i learned these few days? I have been putting time and efforts on the wrong stuffs at the wrong time, i.e. bad prioritising. I have been wasting time. Every day of this week went by so fast that come to think of it, it is now nearly 2 months after coming back home, and slightly more than a month away from my flight back to Melbourne and it will be about another 10 more months before i come back here, to this bedroom of mine which i have been sleeping in for about 12 years before flying off to Melbourne to study last year. What have i done or achieved in this period of 2 months? I don't know.. other than the 8-day trip to Singapore (it was fun and worth it, actually), the (usually) 5hours-sessions of playing LAN games with friends and my cousin, a bit of driving sessions with my sister, the suppers, a few outings and that's pretty much it. I also have been spending time at home pretty much these few weeks after coming back from the trip but other than helping around with the house chores (the maid ran away to get married) and recently, watching matches of Australian Open 2010 with family, most of my time would be spent being in front of the computer, like now -.- so i suppose that is why i don't feel like i have done much actually after coming back. Nothing much worth mentioning, perhaps? (other than what i have mentioned, i suppose)
Where am i going on with this post? I don't really know, but perhaps i do? My resolutions for the year, i suppose? A reminder for the future Ronan when he reads this? Perhaps i can start writing a memoir or something, seeing how i tend to write so much. But anyways, talking so much would not really make a different without the change of heart. I really hope i can remind myself to remember stuffs, to prioritise, to not waste my time and efforts on these temporarily stuffs. It all needs balance, i suppose? Oh well Ronan, you know what i mean, and i hope i can come back to update more in this blog in the time to come, and end it on a good note. Something like that? Haha oh wellllllll
Well, if you (not really you, future Ronan, but my friend, who has gone through all the hardships to continue reading till this paragraph here, OK, you too, stranger), i will end this post here with a little screen capture i took a while ago that i hope, would tickle your funny bone =D:
i don't know whether it is subtle but can you spot the irony =D??
Yup that is all for now.
