Thoughts

November 16, 2008

It has been a very long time since I have time for myself for self reflection. This may appear random, but bear with it.

The girls I fall in love with are either leaving, left or attached. None of them seem to be keen to stay a while longer to find out how great a guy I am.

I mix my healthy supplement mixed fruit powder drink with lime coke because it tastes better that way.

I have a mountain bike that has been kept in my house for 3 weeks now and I still couldn’t find time or company to take it for a spin.

If some art film director decided to film my life, it would look like a disaster movie, or a hopeless comedy.

When I sing, I scare children away. When I dance, I scare the hell out of the neighbours downstairs.

My best-est buddies are asking me to get to know God. I know Him, I just don’t believe in Him the way they do.

I wake up too early for work, and I get home too late from work.

I have not been eating regularly, or healthily.

I still love South Park.

The only thing that is going right for me are the train timings – they never run late.

But I’m thankful that I’m still insulated from the financial turmoil.

I realised I missed home too much. Maybe it’s time to pack my bags and go home for a visit.

God be with ye

I woke up yesterday morning wondering where does goodbye come from. I mean, do you ever wonder? Why do we say ‘goodbye’ when we part? And I always have people asking what’s the ‘good’ in goodbye. You know?

A dear friend left on a jet plane yesterday. I didn’t get to say my goodbye’s. I am not good in these kind of things anyway. But if there’s a remote chance that she’ll end up here, I would like her to know that she is already missed. And while the world is not as big as one thinks, I do hope she picks up the phone when I call. I’m too old for late-night IM and skype. But I do wish her the best, and a reminder that I will send her the part of her she left behind.

Goodbye, it seems, came from God be with ye. Fitting, don’t you think so?

So dear friend, ’till we meet again, God be with you.
