The weekend passed by like a breeze, shoooo...... two days gone, back to uni on monday. This weekend wasn't too productive, didn't do much, just stayed in and basically watch movies and soccer. Gosh.. weekends could be quite dry over in melbourne sometimes unless u have a car. Most of the time I feel that my day's wasted cause I usually get up at 1 or 2 and by the time I get up the day's already almost over. But yeah.. weekends are sometin that I would looked forward to.. eventhough it could be boring. IH had their open day today, it's good to see parents bringing their kids around the college, smiling and feeling satisfied with the tour you provide them. Most of them looked really amazed with the college. For me, it's 50 bucks earned!
Yesterday, a friend of mine asked me... what's the purpose of life and what's there left to drive you on when you feel your life has no purpose. I gave him an answer, but I don't think that really answered his question. I told him life's a challenge everyday and he's gotta challenge himself everyday. I just wanted him to feel better but I actually do not know. I am as lost as he is. That's one thing I can't understand till now. Sometimes if u asked me, I would say, I would rather be a char kuay teow seller and at least all that I have to think about is to improve my char kuay teow and look at my customer's satisfied face instead of having to study hard and get a job in the complicated corporate world. Sometimes, I sit down and ask myself.. why am I doing this..? What satisfaction do I get from what I'm doing..? Is this really what I want to do..?
I guess life is a cycle that we can't explain but just go on with it. You don't always get the things you really one. You might not be perfect, but you just have to fight for yourself and improve yourself. Things might not look good some times. But hey, you still got plenty of time! Your life might be better tomorrow or in the later years.. just gotta be patient. Everyone has their day and everyone will eventually get what they deserve. It's just like a boat drifting in the ocean, it will eventually find a right and nice island to land on one day. It might not be sure of its direction right now, but when it locates the island, there is where it'll go.
Shit.. analogies again.. hahahhaha.. I should be writing short stories! Haha, enough of preaching.. time for some SLEEP! Have fun for the rest of weekend everyone!

i'll tell you, and your friend whats the meaning of life. i once asked myself, and the people around me. until i came to this answer, "its all about playing roles". see, you're playing the role of someone's child, someone's friend, ,some teacher's student, some stranger's laughing material when you do something silly in public, you influence! you touch the lifes of many around you, and you may not have realised it. think about it, think how you made a difference to the lifes of many others around you. and its a good thing, something you ought to reflect on and continue touching the life of many others to come because some day you WILL be someone's partner, somebody's parent, perhaps a role model to others.
n kee hong, thank u for being someone's mahjong kaki.
Well that sounds very reasonable but on the account that u dun think a step further...such as...wats the point of playing roles then...wat happens after u acheive n fulfill those roles then...wats the purpose behind all these...hmm i guess being a kid is the most fun of all for not knowing reality
thanks for the comment karhseng, damn long din play mahjong, hands getting itchy... hehe..
well wat karhseng said is damn true..if u r somebody to someone or if u r someone to somebody it shud at least mean something to u!if we keep asking ourselves wats the purpose of life then in ur whole life all u do is keep finding the answer to that question!u might be at a point of ur life where u don have a goal or u r at a lost but while finding ur goal go enjoy ur life, be yourself, live life as though there's no tomorrow n stop asking urself wats the purpose of life n u'll enjoy ur life much much more!
well, i'll die quite satisfied thinking i've managed to make a difference to the people around me.
i'll be glad if, when i'm absent in their lives they'd miss having me in their lives.
i'm being thankful for having people around with all sorts of behaviour and they too, to the least did have an influence on how i behave.
for all these, i'm happy to be a part of this world. does it not satisfy u to know that u've made a difference to the people around u by being in this world, rurouni?
well, another fren of mine who beg to differ says sex is the ultimate goal in life. but i'm not too sure bout this, haha..
