According to one person that I thought I knew claimed the above which I think includes the following since the person wished not to elaborate:
1) Being resourceful
2) Concerned about the safety of others
3) Being non-discriminative
4) Having some common sense (I am repeating 1 again)
I am bemused by this absurd paraphrasing while I get back to sorting out my never-ending laundry. And the sad and funny part of this whole melodrama is that I am not melodramatic or sad. I am just indifferent.

Rising Costs and Raisins of Reality
Increasing oil prices finally got to me this time around when I got my bus tickets. A whopping 30% increase?! Which makes you blink, slap your forehead and in the end reach your wallet and give up your precious dollars.
On better note, I think I am finally done with unnecessary baggage and feel less choked. Reality hits you hard even in tiny bits but sometimes it is for a reason or many. Feeling relieved, free, nothing crappy to worry about are one of such things. When you barely have enough hours in a day to worry about yourselves, there is no warrant to worry about people who could not care less.

Return to Reality
After gauging on food and books for the whole week, I at least feel better now. Typically, it means the usual psychotic amount of work is going to start soon. The holidays are given just so that we don't die by mistake and we can recharge our batteries to discharge them effectively for the coming months which indeed are grim and scary looking.
I feel that I have a plan but then again reviewing my past records on plans .... Umm lets just say that best laid plans need not only be thwarted by obscure things like luck and by the smallest of things; big things: like being carefree (other words: lazy) and unnatural contentedness are sure fire holes as well.
But then again, you can never be sure without trying and this is what I am going to do. I at least minutely improve each time so let us see how this goes ...
I am not all sunshine yet but it takes a little while to get there after what I have been through these past weeks ...

Post 300 Rant
With evaporation of the jubilant feeling after 300, with all the work consuming me ... I was at the end a living zombie with caffeine toxicity and with don't-know-what-else maladies. Feeling crappy and mundane on the whole.
Some had their funny-bone tickled by me, probably they had just brains of cuttle-bone. There was the idiotic fellow in the bus station blithering in a language he thought I could not understand on how we booked the tickets beforehand without paying. Oh you self-consumed snake, if you knew that we live in a place where access to the nearest ticket counter sets us 30 minutes back, you would know to keep your orifice shut. Plus all you had to do was ask the person at the counter not spout venom at people who were already late for their bus. It was his only silver lining, if not I would have given him a taste of my acidity. pH 0 that is ...
Though thinking back, my RM55 had probably gone to waste since I was squashed like a sardine in the bus back home: my seat could not recline while the seat in front of me hyper-reclined. PERFECT.
On reaching back, I was so tired that I spent and am still spending the days sleeping to rid of the tiredness of the past weeks. Minus the fact that I nearly killed myself eating too much yesterday, there is pretty much negativity flowing from me.
Hoping for sunnier skies at least today to stop sounding hysterical and undead.

WE HIT 300!
Not the movie 300 or anything but the blog has finally crossed the 300 mark thanks to some new readers and smart advertising.
Either way, it should just get better and I am deeply appreciative to all of those who drop by to hear what I say or stumble upon.
So, many thanks and great content will follow once I am free which is like 3 weeks from now.
Till then I am going for a slumber on the blogging front ...

Food
Don't know why I am suddenly into food but well they say you appreciate something when it is not there right?
Right now (I am not starving) but well let just say I am just eating to live. I normally live to eat. With pasta, potatoes (I'M LOVING IT) and goodness knows how many other great things not available here, it is no wonder I sometimes have the craving.
Either way, I am not sure whether I will continue on with the food series but anyway, this was a recently thought to me simple recipe which makes a great lunch:
Potato Salad
Find good potatoes, mayo, raisins, apples and whatever you feel to your liking and add them to the proportion you please and chill. It is that simple. Yeah, do not forget to boil the potatoes first and go easy on the mayo (really, you don't want to overdo it).
And tuck in!

Seriousness? (Not Worth It If It Involves People)
True.
Human beings are too hard to satisfy and honestly, it is not worth it as they can forget you in just a second. So, the message is that it is pointless being committed and pouring life into something that is plainly lifeless and corrosive.
Hence, just follow the take it easy policy. At least you won't be disappointed and will be surprised by what you might unearth.
Treasure in fact.
P/S I am certainly not talking about any "relationship" because its neither here and there.
