Update version 3.14159265359

It's been awhile since my last post because of 2 reasons:

1) Holiday in Phuket
2) My effin' e-speed has been acting up again


Anyways, just to update you people briefly on my trip to Phuket; It was extremely fun but also extremely tiring because I barely got 4 hours of sleep the whole time I was there. Tee hee hee... The night life there is just crazy, which is mostly due to the large sex industry over there. I wasn't surprised to see prostitutes and 'what-nots' everywhere because that's always been known about Thailand but seeing it in real life and hearing about it are two totally different things altogether.

The sad part of my trip was that it was only 3 days and 2 nights long. And to make things worse, I spent half the trip on an airplane. My flight schedule was Brunei-Singapore-Phuket-Kuala Lumpur-Singapore-Brunei. Don't ask me why my flight was like that, it just was. Furthermore, I was detained by custom officers at the KL airport and not allowed to leave the airport because of my 'stateless' issue. Thank God that I was able to convince the officers and still make it in time for my connecting flight. But after all that, I think the trip was definitely worth it and I would probably do the whole thing again if I could. Hehe... =D

That's all for now.

A day in the life of me

Please read the instructions carefully before attempting:

1) Wake up - Always start by waking up to turn the water heater on; Lest you want to take a cold shower in the morning. Return to sleep after switching the heater on. An alarm clock which allows you to set two different alarm times is handy in this situation because it saves you valuable minutes in the morning which could be used for sleeping instead. *Warning!* Prolonged repetition may lead to a zombie like state when carrying out step 1.

2) Wake up (reprise) - For this step, an alarm clock with a "snooze" button is necessary. Once the device is in place you may use the afore-mentioned button to gain even more valuable sleeping time. This button may be used 2 to 3 times in a row..................or 7 to 8. Whatever... *Warning!* Using the snooze button too many times will result in hurriedness.

3) Shower (15 mins or so) - A shower in the morning refreshes the body and keeps it awake longer. **Note: Peeing in the shower, although gross, can help to keep the time spent on this step to a minimum. The same goes for brushing your teeth.**

4) Outer appearance - Start by laying out the desired clothes. Wearing underwear is optional as according to your preference. Put on the pants and belt before proceeding to fold the sleeves of your shirt. Gel your hair and then move on to facial care. Next, put on your shirt and end with tucking it into your pants.
**Note: Be sure to check that your fly is closed before proceeding.**

5) Breakfast - Just skip it.
*Warning!* Not eating may cause death...

6) Driving to work - Take a few mins to say a prayer before departing. If you are to drive like me, you're gonna need all the protection you can get. *Warning!* Traffic may cause boredom.

7) Work - Spend the next 4 hours answering phone calls, processing orders, typing emails, drinking water, going to toilet, filing documents, being scolded, making jokes, complaining, pretending to work and answering all of your boss' questions. **Note: Not necessarily in that order.**

8) Lunch - Meet up with certain people for lunch if they are available or skip it if they aren't. Return to work late.

9) Work (continued) - Refer to step 7

10) Driving home - Let out a sigh of relief at the completion of step 9 and take a few mins to say a prayer before departing. *Warning!* Driving at excessive speeds may result in a testimony at YDM.

11) Shower (leisurely) - Just as a shower in the morning prepares the body for the daily activities, so does a shower in the evening prepare the body for the night activities. Be sure to scrub every single part of your body and also to take a moment to admire your physique (or lack thereof)

12) Dinner - Refer to step 5

13) Night activities - This step is ad-hoc and will change from night to night. Common activities include going to the gym, hanging out at the mall, watching a movie, playing video games, blogging and worship practice.

14) Sleep - Ensure that your alarm clock has been set and turned on for the next morning before proceeding to facial care. Upon completion of facial care, double check the alarm clock and switch off the lights.

15) Start from the top again

Lazyness begets lazyness begets lazyness begets lazyness...

Lately I've been so lazy that if I was in a race for the world's laziest person, I'd finish last...... Have you ever gotten the feeling that you've got nothing to live for? Hmmm.....
