how to untangle???


i was reading 熊寶的塗畫日誌 and felt that things have sort of become a bit stuck.. halted.. not moving.. you get the drift..

i think there is a time when everyone hits a plateau.. a time of just plain nothingness.. well, sort of nothingness.. i don't even know what the hell am i on about here.. maybe just a sense of urgency as time keep on passing by quickly..



















let's not dwell on that too much.. since today is the global launch day for iPhone 3G, i thought i'd post some photos gathered from the net... looks kind of cool.. a bit tad expensive on its own, but still..

070108 the halfway mark...

today is the 1st day of July in the year 2008.. the half way mark for this 2008th year in the AD..

a look in the calendar, it lists today as the the 183rd day of 2008 and there are 183 days left before we enter 2009..

so a half year has gone by.. review time i guess for many of us living in dire conditions brought about by changes in this half year.. were we prepared for it?? are we prepared for more of it?? is there more to expect?? more questions for the next 183 days before 2009..

so far this past half year, we had to adapt to new changes in many facets of our daily lives.. there was that 0308.. then there was the increasing global oil price (futures) that caused our local pump to
increase in its retail price per liter (doh!!).. which gradually effected many things.. and shrinking our spending abilities.. if only i could strike the jackpot on sportstoto..

there were of course those tragedies that happened abroad.. it was disheartening to see people suffering from natural disaster and yet others trying to make money out of it.. or gain some celebrity out of it (attention ms. SS... please shut up!!)..

so far 2008 has been uneventful.. with one thing happening after another.. or perhaps we live in a world bombarded with too much information that our brains are conditioned to only take in the bad and forget that some good happened too..

well.. to the next half..


the 2008 summer olympics will be held in beijing on the 8th day of august, 2008.. which before was too politicized.. please, there should be a "segregation" of sports and politics.. this is the stage for the many people who have worked hard to hone their skills and perform at their best for their country and personal glory at a world stage.. do not use this as a means to promote personal agendas.. it is the wrong forum.. COMMON SENSE and BETTER JUDGEMENT and COURTESY..

of course, there are some more hollywood movies to grace our screens.. so watch out for those.. but since everything has gone up in price, i would probably just stay at home..
