c h i p s

I just noticed that these days, I don't blog as often as I was before this. Even with all the work stress and loads of workload, I notice that I blog more often when I was still working.


Hmm...


When I was still working, I feel that I don't have enough time to blog. But now that I'm not working anymore, regardless of the extra time that I have, I always feel that I STILL don't have enough time to blog. Why is this happening?

I remembered I read from somewhere that the amount of time you spend blogging isn't really affected by your daily routines. It all comes down to whether one has the initiative to sit down, turn on the PC, go online, and blog. I have to admit, yes, sometimes I'm just lazy to blog. Well, who doesn't experience this as well? But a blog which has less frequent or outdated updates will definitely have less visitors and overall, decreases the traffic into the blog itself. Referring back to my own blog, well, I don't really give a d*mn about the traffic that goes to my blog. No, that doesn't mean that I don't appreciate every single visitor that drops by my blog. I thank all of you that drops by and takes time to read my gloomy, dark & uninteresting blog. Moreover, my blog does not have loads of ads and stuffs which may provide profit to me anyway. It's simply a place where I rant every single thing I feel, and think. I have to admit, sometimes I discuss about uninteresting topics and also topics which may lead people to negativity and bad habits, but that's how my life goes. People say that life is a box of chocolates, I feel that my life is more like a pack of chips. Some 'chips' are nicely in one piece, where as most of the other 'chips' are either scattered in smaller pieces or produced uneven due to transportation impacts and manufacturing defects. Same thing goes to our life. Seriously, I don't know who is the person who says that life is a box of chocolates, everything even and nice to hold and indulge. I beg to differ on this, I just feel that my life is just....so rough. Happy times don't last long enough for you to enjoy it, sad & lousy times lasts just too long for you to understand the word 'suffering'. Take the 'bag of chips' again. Tell me, how many times do you buy a pack of chips which you have ALL even, nice and perfect chips in it? Never? Instead, most of the time, you will most probably get around 50% compressed air, 20% perfect chips and the rest is scattered and spoilt chips (burned, etc.) in your bag of chips. Take the compressed air as the time we sleep and being idle, the perfect chips as happy times, and spoilt chips as lousy and sad times.


Tell me now, is life really a box of chocolates?


Enough for now, I'll need to get packing for my 3rd vacation spot.

Wondering what's with these bus tickets?

Yes, you're right. You're just so right. The 1st image on top is the bus tickets to/from my 2nd vacation spot which I just came back yesterday, while the lower image shows the tickets to my upcoming 3rd, 4th & 5th vacation spots. A picture paints a thousand words, so basically you can see which place(s) am I going to next.

Newcomers to my blog may think that I do part time bus ticket sales from the images above, yeah, it really seem to be that way from the number of bus tickets I have now. What's more, it's all from different bus companies! Hmmm....


From another perspective...


It seems like my funds are running out fast....I mean, real fast. Simply buying these bus tickets today already cost me close to RM100, what's more some of them are merely a one-way trip ticket. And to add salt to my wounds, this came by while I was at my 2nd vacation spot. There goes my 'round-Malaysia-on-my-car' plan. As such, I leave the transportation issue to our express bus, which, to my surprise, didn't increase price...yet. All the bus tickets that I bought are at their usual regular price, and no significant increase in price as expected. Well, a good news here...but what about other costs e.g accommodation, food, etc? These costs will definitely increase in line with the increase in petrol. Sometimes, it's not easy to plan a vacation, but what's for sure....


Travelling alone is bliss for me.


I feel so........free.

Yes, you read that right.

I'm affected by flu.

Well, nothing fancy, really. Just that getting sick again and again during these few weeks really suck. Most stuff can't be done when your body is down, and mind you, this is no ordinary flu. It's one heck of a crazy @$$ flu minus the fever part. My nose is 24/7 blocked, I have bad sore throat due to breathing using my mouth, and worse thing is I'm experiencing headache every now and then. And after seeing the doctor to get some antibiotic, the flu doesn't seem to subside anyhow.


Crap.


And that's not the best part.

The best part is that I'm leaving to my 2nd vacation spot, 1st thing in the morning, tomorrow. Yes, regardless of my health condition. Somehow (as expected as well), people tell me that "you won't be able to continue your vacation with your health like this". But hey, I got hit by a serious crap flu and yet I'm leaving for my 2nd vacation already. I'm the type of person who like to get things done as planned. Not even health will stop me unless, well, I'm lying on the bed and got into some deep sh*t disease. Once the plan is on at the specified date, I'll try...no, let me rephrase that...I'll definitely make it happen. From a nice perspective, it's called sticking to the initial plan and trustworthy. From a worse perspective, it's plain stubbornness and stupid.

Anyhow, I'm already packing now.

Wish me all the best, people.

v a c a t i o n -- p t. 1

It's been almost a week since I left my frustrating job, and now, you ask, "Where & what am I doing now?"


Well, most people asked me the same thing over & over again, and pity me, my answer is the same. No offence, but it seems like I'm constantly repeating myself to everyone that....


I'm going to several places, among them Pahang, Terengganu, Perak...and I won't be looking for a job yet until my funds run dry.


*Well, I know the last part sounds childish but heck, I've already started saving for this fund ever since I got pissed off with my previous job. *


And this is no ordinary pain you would have known of.


Ignore the self babbling above.


Back to the topic.


I'm currently at my 1st "vacation" spot (notice the quotes; it's not actually a real vacation but it's more like a place for me to chill out and get some nice, deserved rest). Actually, I've been here since Monday, and today (Friday) is the last day I'm here. Going to return home this evening, and gosh, my b*lls almost broke when this came to light. Lucky I've already filled a full tank for my car for my ride back home. Ohh, I drove all the way from home to this "vacation" spot. Bad timing for a petrol price hike. SERIOUSLY.


Ok, need to go buy the famous biscuits here for Mum and grandma. More updates on my vacation later.


*It's really been sometime already since I last felt so......free.
