Life's Monotony...

I found a litany containing life's monotony. Although I didnt really find it per se. I've just always had it idling, pushed to the back of my head. If you try really hard, you will know which litany this is. One of those whimsical nursery rhymes, provided to amuse our tiny little brains. Yes. You have. It is exacly what you thought...


Itsy bitsy spider,
Went up the water spout,
Down came the rain and washed the spider out,
Out came the sunshine,
And dried up all the rain,so,
Itsy bitsy spider went up the spout again.


And they say we lie to kids by covering the world in rose coloured candy wrappers...

In The End

(It starts with)
One thing
I don't know why
It doesn't even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind
I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time

All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away

Its so unreal
Didn't look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn't even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when

I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter

Take a Break from the Norm...




This is a rough sketch of a cross section of the candy coated chocolate coated peanuts I got from my cousin. They're from Bay Swiss and are extra crunchy. When sucked, the colour lasts longer than M&Ms. These truly never melt in your hands (even though they're sweaty). Very yummy.

I give it a 9/10.

Box is pretty too ^^

Back to School :-P

well.. today was my first day at school (hehe).. it went pretty well.. the environment compared to ozemail is soo laid back.. like even though i was informed that today was a pretty quiet day.. a quiet day at ozemail meant i got like a 2-5 min break between 2 calls...

its quite an interesting job.. like the title is help desk/technical support.. but i'm part of a team that looks after the systems (mac and pc), networks, computer maintenance, application support etc.. so really i'm like a system admin, network admin and technical support officer all in one..

and did i mention the pay is like heaps better than ozemail?? :-)

Redbull NO MORE!

ok.. last night was bad.. went out for drinks and chatting etc wif a whole bunch of people..
as most of u know i don't drink alco.. so i buzzed myself with coffee and 2 redbulls... when it hit about 1:30.. i crashed.. headache.. stomach queezy... felt like i was going to collapse..
felt worse than my alco experience over a year ago where i got alcohol poisoning.. that experience turned me off alco.. this experience has now turned me off redbull... :-/
