Yea, that's what it seems like recently, no? Haha >.<
Actually i have lots and lots of crap to do and i haven't gotten started and i shouldn't be doing this but oh well -.-

• Today I didn't feel too good from the start. Maybe it's something to do with stress (wait... who has stress??? I'm stress-free!!!! >.<") or something about sleeping at 5.30am and waking up at 6.30am (with a 2hr nap before that, of course) or some emotional baggage (seems quite alot better today... thankfully. I won't know what to do if it didn't.) etc... but i felt nauseous all the way, even now, even though I'm much better, especially after sleeping for about 4 hours (wasn't planned... I flipped a page of Time magazine, then conked out). So in the morn, I ate about one small bite of sausage bread and gave up. The sausage tasted very grainy and my stomach was in a tight knot (still is... somewhat...) and the bread tasted like weird fluff that wasn't edible. Recess... drank a cup of hot tea and ate half of a small chicken burger. I'm sorry to waste food, but I really couldn't take eat anymore. Then it was out class monitor's birthday and I wanted to eat a slice of cake and have fun with him but i was very afraid that I would just puke the pile of cream out later...  Then I found a black Ipod touch and returned it to the Student Affairs Centre (SAC) and someone picked it up later and gave me a thank-you SMS. I was quite delighted (: (助人为快乐之本！It's one of the zuowen topics hmm. hehe :D) Then for dinner I ate about three-quarters of my food and gave up. I think I accidentally "learnt" this from someone who didn't eat much at all the day before! Poor person... >.< forgot the breakfast menu, but that person drank a fruit shake thingy for lunch and had cup corn for dinner. *stares accusingly as said person*
• Thought a little bit about seniority while I was singing in the shower. I think the natural procession (for me at least, and perhaps those leaning towards such traditional Chinese beliefs) is for people to gain more respect the older they get (unless they really don't deserve it). So taking me as an example... I think I admired my sec 3 and 4 seniors back at VS, such as one called Ashwin Thapa. I think he's Nepalese cos for choir camp he once taught us a few words and we had to repeat them as his checkpoint. (sub-point: I think the more you give, the more you get back emotionally. So as an example, of course people who find say reading distateful won't touch books, won't read, and won't get the knowledge from reading... and so they continue to not read books. Whereas those who read books know about the benefits of doing so and will continue to do so, and the more they read, the more insights are gained. It's like a positive feedback process.) SO anw. Yea... the older people get, the more natural it is for people to look up to them, due to accumulated life experiences, etc, and simply from being older. I think that's why my juniors kind of deferred to me a little when I was in sec 4, even though I don't feel as though I've done anything to deserve that respect. So now that I'm in JC, I look up to my seniors who are one year older than me... yet somehow they seem to exude that air of maturity that I can only hope to have one day. And so perhaps we look up to older people simply because they are older, and older people get more smug as they grow yet older, simply because the number of people who are still alive and senior to them dwindles. So the young respect the old, the old respect the famous greats of ancient times...
• I've been going around showing off my newly pimped (stuff added) iPhone. So as seen below, The button is now protruding. It feels kinda weird. And to those who say it seems sort of girlish... It's cos it's a birthday present (one of two parts) of iphone button things from a female friend (known her since primary school). I was so happy I immediately begun using the sticker, heh. Oh, well... Girlish or not, I have to put up with this button until I get bored of it/ rip it out when it's old and spoilt. And then: I have three more to use! hahahah  :P

• Everyone seems to be crashing on on Steve Job's death. I initially felt that Apple was pretty much moot about ten years back and Microsoft was The Thing. But now, I view both companies rather equally, becaue they're both successful in their own ways; as Time puts it, Apple is absolute, dictatorial, exculsive, while Microsoft shares its software with many other companies. So anyway, back to Jobs: I thank him for creating an easy-to-use iPhone (really user friendly, but I still don't find it doin anything much. But there's simply no better phone in the market to turn to). While everyone's praising Apple and Jobs now, perhaps the flipside of the comany and the man that was behind it has been largely glossed over. So I don't know that much too, but if you interpret the exclusivity of Apple's products in a different light, you find that apart from being attentive to your needs, they also tend to inhibit experimentation and the adding on of new things to them. So Jobs instead of catering to the needs of the consumers actually created a need for them, and they (we, whatever) have embraced it. Anyway, he really did revolutionise our everyday world (however much I don't see the need for an Ipad or Macbook, even though I would like something like that that runs on Windows, please. I'm not a Windows fan but I tend to resist change and so refuse to adapt to Mac OS.), so this is why he has tributes being paid to him and all. Even critics don't deny greatness when it has to be duly accorded.
• You know the the pic showing Job's silhouette in the bite of the Apple logo that's been spreading around like wildfire and created (not the first person, though) by some Taiwan poly student? I'm pretty blind, so if there's any stray bit of hair at the top of Jobs's head I can't tell whether it exists or not, so I essentially see a bald head. So you now what's the first name that pops into my mind even though bespectacled bald figures asccociated with Apple are probably Steve Jobs (plural? haha).....                  Mahatma Ghandi.                                                               .... So yeah, a peace-loving figure is tilting his head and giving a solemn look to Apple. The possible interpretations are endless. Heh.
• Anyway... Steve Jobs really looked quite different in the different phases of his life, from a handsome twentysomething year old dude to a slightly filled out 30-40 plus and then to white balding hair and growing beard and then growing more bald with his frame becoming skinnier due to his panceatic cancer. Oh, why must the greats always die early...
