Discussion on marriage.

A few of us from work went to dinner the other day and ended up with a heated discussion on
Marriage: before/after, are rules important?
...or something like that.

Not surprisingly, the view of the 2 married ladies differ from the view of a single lady. This interesting debate went on for some time between them with occasional input and summary from me and Brandon.

A well deserved break

Felt a little guilty about leaving office. But I thought, what the hack, I deserved a break. Goodness, I don't even take MC.
Went to minnie's shop yesterday with adam. He wanted to take some shots for minnie. We went around scouting for good locations. I as usual, was there to have fun and be the idiot I love to be.
Me on cannon

Of course there was also some time for some quite reflexion.

Thud! Apprentice! And a worrying message

Must thank Lin for lending me Thud! Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Where is Mister Vimes when the world need him?

Watched the Apprentice. No matter how much people and evidence points against a single person, the person will always very strongly believe that he/she is right. So much for human huh. The scary thing is that these are the "cream of the corp" from all walks of life; if these people are incompetent and such jerks, what are the chances that the people at the top are actually any good, or that they even care?

Anyway, just tried to apply for financial aid for my course in NUS and that this message that says that the application period is over. Great. Now what?

William Blake, balloons(again), and the forever to do list

Stumbled across the works of William Blake, a 17th century poet, painter and printmaker. Very interesting and thoughtful verse. Example:
'The hand of Vengeance found the bed
To which the purple tyrant fled;

The iron hand crush'd the tyrant's head

And became a tyrant in his stead.'

How often we do the very things we disapprove of, and become the very persons we dislike.

In my personal life, lots of chores and tasks to finish and in work, even more so. Friends have commented that I carry an ugly frown where ever I go. Gave up trying to finish work, instead adopt a guerrilla attitude.

Jul asked me about doing balloon sculpting for this year charity walk. Finally something to spark up my life. I was getting bored.

Have a few dinner appointment coming up.

Piss off at work by an injustice (again), there is really something very wrong and unfair about the way we do things, sigh, if only the voters know. Seems like I'm making enemies left, right, center; our unofficial motto stilly stands: Untill we are good, at least try to look good.

Got my permanent offer today, considering.

Too tire to string sentences together.

No news from the U yet. W'll see how it goes.
