Just came back from reservist yesterday. I initially had my reservations about attending reservist. You see, i am not exactly a fan of wearing green uniform. But i must say i had quite a good time, mainly bcos i practically did nothing but slack and i had a great time talking cock and remembering the good( and bad as well) times that all of us went through last time.

Army isn;t as bad as people perceived it to be. As long as we dun stay for too long. A few weeks is fine. Now that reservist is over, i am back to my nua sai mode.

Explanation of Nua Sai Mode:

1) Do nothing
2) Surfing and Reading Blogs
3)Watch TV
4) Sleep long long

Till the day i start work. Dunno when.

Feeling bored these days. U can't blame me for feeling so bcos i have been doing practically nothing since i returned from New Zealand. Yes, nothing for the past one week. Not that i mind it because sometimes i enjoy doing nothing.

So, beside out shopping, (yes, i splurged when my income is zero) i just read. Reading some investment books which the company tasked me to. Of course, i learnt a deal from those reading, totally different from what the school has taught.

I have been feeling very angsty these days as well. Probably i am feeling emotionally disturbed when all my friends have started/going to start working in those prestigous firms. Ok u can say i am a bit jealous. Hey! At least i am being honest ok!

I suddenly have an idea yesterday. I was actually hoping that my company would let me start work later. I know i want to be with my company bcos what they are offering to me is exactly the challenge i am looking for, but i hope that i can do some contract work in some bank such as in Operations of sort to learn more things, know more people.

But crazy! I would also panic if the company postpones my commencement date! Maybe they will take me in after all and all sorts of nonsense will arise.

Haiz..Dunno what i want!

21 June 2007. I am still slacking at home. Many of my friends have already started work or going to start work. While i am still bumming around at home. Not that i dun have a job, it's just that i dun wish to talk about it as i am afraid it might die a premature death. Nothing is confirmed until i really started work.

Market is really very good. Graduates from my cohorts are really doing very well. Some companies they are in. All those big banks. Looks like they are on the way to making it big. And i am stuck at home for now. Haha!

On a lighter note, i have decided to sign up for a Jap Language course because i am too bored and i think it's a good way to keep myself occupied for now until August. For now, i am still taking life easy. I can make it big or bigger than my friends! Just watch out! haha

Perhaps it's time to blog about my trip to New Zealand but i am just too lazy to. Lazy to upload the pictures that i have taken. Perhaps when i have the mood to do, i will do it.

But the trip can be summed up in a few words. New and Fun.

The trip could be more fun if not for the tight budget that we had. I didn't do Bungee jumping or water rafting.

But the trip made me realised one important thing. I adapt pretty well and fast. It bodes well as my next trip will be a longer one. I am not afraid of leaving my comfort zone of not eating local food, not familiar with the surrounding and the constant challenge of being independent in all my decisions.

Perhaps i have really grown up and ready to brace a totally new life experience. I certainly look forward to a new experience that is to come in the coming months!

I want everyone to make a bet. How would i die?

Actually, i kinda know the answer. I would probably die from stroke or heart attack.

Why?

Because:

1) My ill-tempered nature which lead my blood pressure to rise very often. According to Audrey, I get ' lou hei' (Cantonese for agitated) very easily.

2) I like to indulge myself with killer food. Oyster.Burgers.Fries.Crabs.Prawns.Squid. Yum! Yum!

I need to do something about it! Should we all go for a vegetarian meal pig out at major temples one day?

I have been following the blog of one of my friends very closely for a long time. Though i do agree that i am a kaypoh sai, a part of me is also concerned about how people's life is doing.

There are some perspectives which i do not agree on, and it is not directed at anyone in particular.

I do not agree that anyone to love anyone to the extent that you live your life for the other person. I try to rationalise that i may not know what relationship is because i haven't met anyone whom i love. Perhaps but it's hard for me to visualise myself to love the person to death. That's why i cannot agree with actions like losing sleep over someone, losing your focus over someone.

Thus when someone has total control over your actions, emotions and sleep, then there is serious problem with you. Simply because other people don't own our life and being master of our own body, the only logical and simplest thing any human being can do is to assume control of our body.

It's not that i dun understand how heart wrenching a failed relationship feels. It's just that if it fails, you cry until u go blind will not salvage the situation. Then jolly well feel sad for the demised relationship for a week or two and bloody hell move on with ur life!

Seriously, there are more things for us to be concerned about than just our own relationship. It's not merely chasing the dollar ( i don't want to be seen as superficial). There are issues that warrant our attention more. I would rather save my tears for the poor elderly who need to take cleaning jobs to earn a living, or more serious social problems.

Very often, we tend to be very myopic in the way we see things, because it's always ME, ME and ME. We can never get out of the whirlpool of problems when we always focus on ourselves. Not to act noble and save the world, just need to learn to grow up.

I bet all these need not be taught by any god. You just need some common sense
