the entry where my cerebrum does the talking

the following are a couple of examples of what my brain throws up from time to time, albeit in an altogether haphazard, loony fashion.

in a world where alicia keys has become the standard de facto for elevator music, logic is ... well, logical, and there's no two ways to a math answer, i have always pondered upon what it would be like to be living on a plane where all sense of rationality was thrown off balance. what if poverty was the ideal norm, social crimes were celebrated, and the pinnacle of dsytopia was what everyone seeked? would a society as such self-annihilate?

after a month-long hiatus from gym and an even longer sabbatical from work, i have begun throwing myself into the throes of these two entities. as rewarding as the gym workouts have been after only a couple sessions (i am after all a mesomorph, according to my friend chronos), i seriously am beginning to doubt the theory of "you reap what you sow" when it comes to my profession. nevertheless, i am not giving up hope. yet.

valentine's day is around the corner, and being single, though not miserable, is a straight ticket to not enjoying this occasion at all. i do hope the damned cupid aims a shot or two at me the next year around. i certainly cannot fathom the idea of being single two years in a row.

i would like a well-balanced life like most. i simply don't fancy staying up till the eerie hours of the morning and getting up the following day still tuckered out, despite the adequate (but irregular) hours. the past two nights have been pretty eventful for me: i was in a deep slumber before midnight beckoned, though i slept for way more than ten hours on both accounts. reminder: reel in the sleeping hours for other activities.

so, what goes on through the back of your head?

any occasion sucks for me. it's all about celebrating loneliness, if not, then to mask the loneliness of humans by being with more humans.

Life is full of up and down. Always be positive so you are able to deal with any challenge.

When compare your health, family & career with your loneliness & pain in the V-Day, the V-Day issue
is not that important right?

Now, the important thing for you is to have good sleep every night. Sweet dream. >.<

Friend, it's really a question of whether you see the glass half empty or half full. Look around you - you have a family, a band of alcoholic friends to hang out with, a job, a comfortable house, a nice Pinay maid - and elsewhere, we know how bereft people are with the basic necessities of life. It's not too bad to be single for 2 consecutive years; at least not compared to being single for 27 years. :P

V-day isn't meant to make singles feel bad. It can be celebration of freedom! Cherish it!

(chaos) holding onto hopes gets tougher as each day goes on. so many things happen around us that makes us lose faith. hold on, hold on, i tell myself, every single day.

(lcfu) i should totally do a weekend trip to malaysia. i would really like to make a trip to malacca. very nice place to do photoshoots. you be my guide?

(tyc) positivity, my friend. =]

iruffcookiedough said...

(kp) sorry for giving you insomnia, but you're such a happy go luck-ier, i am sure you should have little problems in that area.

(mundane_creater) why is that so????? i don't see the link AT ALL. haha.

iruffcookiedough said...

(rex) enjoy your nandos! envious much!

(anon aka imy) haha. thanks for the invite, but i think i would rather wallow in my self pity than to infect you with my misery. have a happy valentine's day!

(lek) lek, lek, my friend. when is our next alcoholic meeting? thanks for your counselling. =]

Well, by now you should be able to give yourself a pat and declared that you're survived the VD. Anyway, it's not as bad as you think, you already have several ppl here waiting to date you :P

And having doubts about your profession is definately better that having no profession to doubt about.

Cheer up and get yourself a drink :P Hahahaha!

(km) thanks, km, for a belated v-day missing. =]

(kooky plum) that means you have more reasons to sleep late eh? don't think that much anymore already. it doesn't bode well for a good night sleep.

(lcfu) sounds good, maybe end of this month or the next?

iruffcookiedough said...

(chaos) when life throws us a curveball, remember to grab it by its horn and ride it out until the sunset. =]

(no name) much appreciated! >.<

(daisy) when you acronym-ised valentine's day, i tot you were referring to venereal disease... haha. thanks for the consolation, ^^

kOoKy pLuM said...

yeah i should get out of this vicious cycle of sleeping late. but i guess my only consolation is that i sleep late and wake up even later.
