Choices: To Be Or Not To Be, That Is The Question

Let me start of with this: Does anybody still read this stuff anymore?! Ok, enough. I just made a choice. And that choice is to come and post on the blog, instead of doing something else. And this is called opportunity cost, in which case I believe that posting on the blog is the best option... ok, enough economics. Well, we make choices everyday, don't we? To choose to take the bus or take a cab. To choose to wake up early, or just lay in bed. Or so on and so forth. It is endless. We make so many choices everyday that we decide to stop counting the choices we make. Now thats a choice too. Man, this is crazy, I can go non-stop about this. And it is a choice that I wrote the last sentence. Argh, this is making me mad. Whatever. Ok, every choice will have a consequence. Be it minor choice, or major choice. How do you define minor choice and major choice? Well, minor choice have minor consequence, and major choice have major consequence, its that simple. Minor choices include, to take bus instead of cab, to use spoon or chopsticks etc. Ok, major choices include to convert to a religion or not, to tell someone "I love you" etc. Then theres medium choices. These include to go school or not, how much you decide to spend etc. And its real important that we make the right choices. Be it minor, medium or major, it is very important to make the right choices. To make right choices means to make the choice that will bring the most benefits and the least damage. And these benefits need not be for you. It can be for other people too. Just make sure the damage is minimal or best none. Ok, I suppose that I will have to make a choice to stop writing now. Choice made. Haha...

I Don't Know

It just seems like so long since I last wrote anything at all on this page. And I am wondering if anybody reads this stuff anymore. I just feel so tired nowadays. I just suppose its the insufficient sleep I am getting. No that I am rushing homework or what, its just that I love to sleep late. And having to wake up early is quite a torture, for me at least. Academic wise I suppose I still manage, but I don't know when I will no longer be able to. Also, I just feel so weak nowadays. 2.4km is tiring already. I am not getting good results for fitness. I didn't use to have these problems. 2.4km run was pretty alright for me. But now... well. Pullups no longer is an easy thing anymore. From the 7 pullups which I could easily come up with, I could come up with only 5 now. In the past when I was being "tekan" by scouts senior, 20 pushups was not much of a problem, but now, I had to really push to make 10. I suppose all these is happening cuz I became very slack. And theres many reasons for these. First, ever since I became a scout venture, I did not do much pushups, instead, I order people to do pushups, which in turn meant that I am becoming weaker. And, after my bicycle spoiled, I did not go cycling anymore. My stamina, leg strength all deteriorated. And overall, I have become much weaker physically, and I could feel it myself. Napha is just around the corner. I cannot afford to get anything less than a silver. And with my current condition, it will not be easy to achieve a silver. Thus, I must start to work my body up so that it will be once again toned back what it used to be! 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2....

I Am

totally stressed out to the point that I can break down anytime now and die on the spot. And yes, I am exaggerating. I am just a little stressed than what I had been in the past 4 months. I just had to wake up at 6.30am every morning instead of the 12pm in the past 4 months. Actually, I shouldn't even complain about this, I have friends who wake up at 4.50pm and 5pm simply because they live as far as Tampines and Johore Bahru. For the benefit of people who don't know why I say its far, Tampines is at the other end of the island from my college and Johor Bahru is on another country. I have not ended yet. For the first time in 4 months, I had to do homework. Yes, homework, work that is to be done at home. Although it is just very light work, but the thought of bringing work home to be done really bore me. And also, I have to stay at school untill 5pm? Not everyday, but staying in one place for so long really is boring. And now, I shall say that all the above things are not valid... er? No, I did not tell lies to you, I am only saying that theres something else that discounted all these complains. Friends. My new friends in college literally removed all these stressful complains. Going to college no longer becomes a strenous thing to do every morning, staying at school no longer is a boring thing to be done. Lessons no longer become a bore. All these due to my friends. And I thank God for this wonderful class of friends. Helpful, fun to be with, full of humour. These are enough for me to enjoy college life. A life with no friends really won't make it. Ok, I have work to be done, homework. Some literature anybody? Maybe geography? You can even have the choice of general paper if you like...
