its funny how life twists and changes and before you know it you're doing something completely different and probably so far fetched from what you had originally expected or planned. its also funny in consideration of that how everyone preaches that you gotta have some plan or direction in life, but is it really so worthwhile to make an effort if things just change and alter with whims and fancies that are probably beyond your control or comprehension? perhaps some plan is important, to add structure or direction, but I can't help but wonder if by doing so you're really just limiting yourself to your limited knowledge/experience. you think you want to do something and just that, but maybe it's only because you don't know any better. but to what extent do you trust your knowledge of your ignorance? socrates (or one of those old guys) said that the wisest are those who know that they know nothing, ie aware of their ignorance. and the most misguided are those ignorant of their own ignorance

a year ago i was sitting around segamat sipping over-sweetened tea doing jack shit but surfing and chatting. now i'm close to being assistant project director of one of the biggest (and most ruckus-causing) projects this company will ever see. among other, unmentionable-in-public-realm things. some things never change though .. i'm still sitting around surfing and chatting too. 'cept its not coffee and not tea, and made just right ...

maybe we should just hop on, strap in, and sit back and enjoy the rollercoaster ride (but i hate rollercoasters!). because ultimately, what control do we have? control in this world only really comes with clout .. clout only comes with power, power only come money. and while a select lucky among us have sufficient clout to steer their rollercoaster ... the rest of us tend to get tagged along.

random sidenote: ok i told ch i'm blogging, he doesnt know what that means and i couldnt be bothered to tell him. and some how or another through a blur-5 line conversation he something seems to have gotten the idea that blogging is jerking off to porn. like, wtf?

oh btw Punisher sucks. or more accurately, Punisher as played in malaysian theatre sucks. I mean, bad enough the movie itself was weak, it didnt help that every 5 minutes something was cut or censored .. its like, "blah blah blah you gotta di... *snip* *bang ban..* *snip* *punisher standing looking incredibly blur* *snip* *silly lame attempt at stupid jok...* *snip*". and what the hell was up with the guy and the guitar and the singing at breakfast??

john travolta did a pretty good villian ala-swordfish style, except towards the end his character pretty much seemed to have degenerated into just barking find-him-and-kill-him orders and random goons.

nice cars though. 2004 corvette, XJ8 and a DB9 among others

and bear in mind .. things left unsaid don't imply there's nothing to say. it implies just the conscious choice to leave them unsaid
