(i dont quite like this font)
As i was saying, so before you know it, i'm going to catch the phantom. Just parted with slightly less than half a K, (yup) to pay for the tickets first. And, cant help cant help but feel the pinch that's eatting into me.
That's the thing about me. I' dont feel anything spending the money, and the guilt comes that ONE Second, make it millisecond, just before i blink my eye.. and OUCH, there goes another burnt pocket.
There's alot of things i've actually spurlged on. Delved into luxuries (to me) which i've probably not done so. How come i cant take it so carefreely? (Well, that's prob because i'm not rich!!).
Well, will be watching phantom with my favourite people.. it's the company, (i'm trying to think that so that it will feel less).
And a list of many things i'll intending to do:
1) upgrade my not-working canon power shot.
2) Extend my wireless network to the whole of my house, currenly, the coverage only last till the living room. this is not good. i Either have to get additional access point or relocate my wireless router.
3) Get a laptop so that i can appreciate the wireless house. ( Missed that ever since my lappie died on me)
4) Cambodia trip... hopefully with my new camera
5)
Actually, there's more but i reckon one should not be too ambitious at one shot. I should deem myself DARN capable if i can complete all 4 above in one shot.
Some guilt streak poured over me like a downpour over the last few days. More determined than ever to sort out my life, financially, socially, workwise-ly, physically.
It's time to sort out. To clear. To declutter. To Clean up. SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE.
Software:1) Company desktop
2) Family desktop
3) Thoughts
4) current projects
5) New projects
Hardware: 1) company desk
2) my desk
3) my room
4) my drawers
5) my wardrobe
6)
as usual there's more but i'm happy if all 10 items are sorted out.
Regards,
A happy- idealistic- trigger

I love my cable tv!
I Love this show. I mean, i love it in the modern, un-sappy, relatable and realistic kind of way. How sometimes, people grow, think they move on and how despite you like to think things change and yet somethings just doesn seem to go away.
Seriously, why only point one finger? Is it suppose to "induce" a negative connotation somewhere?
Besides these two, i am sad to announce my favourite HK drama series have come to end, this law-enforcer show which i believe they show be showing in either channel u or channel 8 soon. This father who totally appreciate life and it's meaning, a blessed soul who travelled lots, ate lots of exotic food and wrote his adventures, his successful barrister wife with two lawyer daugthers. You'll be hooked when it's out.
==========================
I admire people who leave behind legacy. Authors, Researchers, Anarchologist.Inventors. Artists. Fine, i do realize these are the key, celebrated careers. YOu might argue that everyone leave behind something. Engineers do too?? Do they? Like.. erm, un-finished analyzed data? Are these the modern legacies left behind? Not passed down by generations but rather but the next fresh entry or experienced worker who hopped in to take the baton?
But people always say, as long as the spirit stays, it doesn matter whether the person lives an eternity. My question then is: how far, how extended will the legacy go?
Thomas Edison built the first light-bulb. His invention will go as far and as long as civilisation and literacy continue in mankind. I doubt his name will ever be forgotten, ever be segregated by continents as long as one uses electricity.
What about u? Me? How long do you think your legacy will last? One - two generation?Three if you are lucky? Are our legacy... measured by our wealth? The amount of money, property you leave for your generations? Or, do we rely on our living legacy aka our descendents to lit the torch?
Of course, great achievement comes to those who toil for them. Thomas tried 2000 times before the first light bulb was successfully built. Do you or I have that patience? Or have we lost the faith?
Sudden Random thoughts. So drastic from how it first started out. Haha. Inspired... yes, yet again, from the movie "National Treasure".
Yes, i believe i'm a fan of puzzles, intrigued by clues, treasures, and the thought that everything pieces together... is exhilarating.
That also explains, why i'm setting up a Unlock the Locks+ Piece the Puzzle as my telematch station for the party next week! And i'm telling you, i got this idea way like 2 weeks ago.. before i caught NATIONAL TREASURE!!!!!!Yes, i'm going to get a hostage from each team, load him with like 15 locks, with a piece of puzzle attached to each lock. Unlock the lock, get your puzzle, piece them up, and rescue the hostage!!!!!
I'm psycho. Dont bother saying it out.
