im bringin' sexxxyBACK!!
DJ YUEYman, i love having fridays off. its effectively a 4 day work week, and after 2 years of army where it was 5 days plus lots of weekends, this 4 day week is a Godsend.
time alone to reflect on stuff has been at a premium the last 6 weeks or so. it jus feels like life has flown by so fast. feels like yesterday i was preparing for exams...that was mid-june! then the holidays came..singapore..sydney..melbourne etc. and been back at sch for 4 weeks now. theres always some reading to be done...tute papers to do...a workshop to attend...jus haven't got time to breathe anymore... uni, on top of socialising and what have you...spending time wit my darling princess wai yan (kisses babe!)...jus havent had much time to myself, and it takes its toll.. hell, da xbox360 hasnt had a decent workout for about a month!!
allocating time to switch off IS important. i remember when i was a kid...i used to plan my life so meticulously with a little timetable. of course, back then life was blooody easy. between 6-7pm everyday i wrote 'walk around' on my timetable. that is, i used to walk around my house and do nothing..disturb my mum..re-arrange my books...look at my sega genesis games..jus time to do nothing. nowadays there isn't time for that. well, i COULD just waste an houe or 2 everyday to do nothing, but its not the same. when i do that now, i always have work on da back of my mind and i feel guilty.
the economists out there know all about opportunity cost, and it seems nowadays everything has an opportunity cost. maybe i put too much pressure on my studies...but i guess im jus some sort of perfectionist...or wannabe perfectionist at least. i dont know how people can pay thousands of dollars to go to uni and not even try. i jus always feel like i can do better, and i get super pissed off if i dont do as well as i think i should. i guess thats why i feel stressed out all da time.. i should probably learn to chill out...
this morning when i was at the bus stop eating my sandwich an elderly couple approached me and asked 'is that a late breakfast or early lunch?' haha. nice to have a city full of friendly citizens ready for a chat. anyway, we got da talkin and inevitably they asked me what i was studying...blah blah blah uni uni uni talk. then they told me 'enjoy ur life now...while its still fun. its all downhill from here'. great! but they have a point i guess. now i think life is tough..but one day im gonna have to pay bills...provide for a family...and actually pay my own car registration! life is bloody easy now! who am i to complain about the stresses of life when i was off at savvy getting smashed last saturday..meh...this post has been sounding sorta negative huh? and it has completely NOTHING to do wit da title. hahaha. well...it sounds worse than it is. everything is generally awesome..haha, but these thoughts just linger... hmm..well...
in the spirit of brotherhood..lets jus play CRAPS!!!!
