doing evil men some good

its a new year so i guess its good to (try) to do men some good. here goes:

A Message by George Carlin: 

*edit - thanks P. lol.*

(apparently Georgie here labelled this article a sappy load of shit but hey, it sounds quite cool and i feel like sharing. lol):

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings
but shorter tempers, wider Freeways,  but narrower viewpoints. We
spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. 

We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too
little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too
tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk
too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We’ve done larger things, but not better things.

We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We’ve conquered the
atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan
more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and
small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are
the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete…

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe,
because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a
cent.

Remember, to say, ‘I love you’ to your partner and your loved ones,
but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the
precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the
moments that take our breath away.

found this in kenneth's blog. he extracted plenty of meaningful others too. feel free to visit em.

and hey, life is still good no matter what. never take something routine for granted alright? :)

cheers, and happy cny again!

next station, akach nau.

akach nau; planet pluto in plutonian. but technically, relegated to a star because its too small. and faraway. very. :D 

greetings people.

im really really really really really really really really REALLY sorry for not updating my blog as often as usual. please allow me to explain.

the dog ate the telephone cable. brought him out for a brisk walk hoping that i could salvage the pieces out of his poo but to no avail. so no internet for me. dont worry guys, i grounded him and bought extra cables for snack already. :P

then he mengamuk.

okay really. so my super duper reliable plane earthlings call ufo crashed right in the middle of pluto, disabling me from going back to civilisation at least for another 3 months. all in all, okay, i have internet, and im back to university, for a week until cny. lol.

tronoh, akach nau.

architecturing the timetable this semester alone thoroughly sucked. the great highly advanced university decided that you know, in order to suck it more, just for the fun of it, down the server and disable access to the newest timetables the day before semester started. hoorah.

okay lah. cant blame them lah. theyre just too kedekut busy to invest on a bigger server to accomodate flocking students. :P

lazy tapir in malacca zoo. a highly recommended holiday destination for budget-less holidays. :P
