National Sad Day

The prime minister's wife pass away today. As weird as it may sound, I feel kind of sad about it. I mean I don't know her personally, only through newspapers and television but I feel sad about it. I voiced it out to my aunt and my sister and even they also agreed with me. I just feel the need to post an entry today yet I have no idea what to say. Maybe I'll think of something while I bathe later. *sigh*

Heaven and hell, which you rather be in?

That's the current state of the place I'm working. The company occupied the 2nd floor of the building when I was training there two months ago. Now I'm back as a temporary staff for a month to earn some extra cash. The company has also expanded downstairs and now occupy a section of the ground floor as well. Ironically, the ground floor department is also the hell part of the company where everyone is currently rushing to complete a project. Late nights, extreme pressure with a short-fuse devil running the place. Now picture heaven upstairs, where everyone is doing things at their own pace, datelines are negociatable, you still have a hawk eyeing at you, making sure you're not slacking too much but otherwise it is still heaven compared to the condition downstairs. Where would you rather be?

I told my dad about this and he told me the theory of "you always worry about two things in life". When you're alive, you worry that you might get sick or worst still you might die. When you're sick you worry whether you will ever get better or then again you might die. Finally you're dead and you worry whether you'll be going up heaven or down to hell. When you end up in heaven you thought all your worries will be gone but then again what happens when all your friends happens to be in hell? In the end, sometimes people prefers to go to hell just to be with people they know, shaking hands with friends.

This is the same case. I'm up in heaven, bored to death. Staring at the computer, feeling sleepy at times, feeling unimportant since I'm not pressured to perform. Sometimes I go down and visit hell where everyone I work with during internship training is currently is down there working their ass off. You feel the energy going around, the drive making you work and perform. It's even ironic that the devil likes me a lot, my friends always say I got a pinch of evil in me *shrugs* but I didn't get sent to work down in hell because of my short time here, they already started the project before I came in and it will take time for me catching up things, by then my one month might be up. So what's the point?

Then again, I'm not here to promote how wonderful hell is. Hell being hell, everyone down there has gone bonkers. A previous colleague of mine who work with me when I train a few months ago has turned into a grumpty gal, not to mention it's fasting time. As the saying goes, "a hungry man is an angry man". When you're in a team, you'll have a sense of responsiblity. Therefore, no matter how much you dislike it, you'll end up working late nights, come in on Sundays to complete your work and all with an angry devil behind your back, ready to pounce on you anytime.

So, heaven and hell, which you rather be in?

D.E.N.G.U.E

Dengue fever is on the rise especially here in Penang and everyone is worried about it. What's more, I get at least five mosquito bites every night I stay up late, sitting in front of my computer. I'm lucky nothing has happen to me or my family and are taking more precaution on this matter. Imagine if five mosquito bites comes from the same mosquito and if that is an aedes mosquito I'll be dead soon. Therefore, mosquito sprays are very much in used right now, though I dislike using it due to enviromental factors I figure I have to save myself before I can save the world. T__T

Someone dug my dead blog from its grave!

Oh my god! I'm seriously in a state of shock right now. I was telling a friend of mine about my new bloggie and he replied to me "I thought you already had a blog?" followed by the link http://vinice.pitas.com/

I can't believe he kept that link for so soooo long. I was shocked, touched and well still shock. I think my heart miss a beat that time. Seriously, I think he just make my day.

Hiyashi - who is typing in a serious state of shock.
