V Day, be happy?

Charles Dicken's London in his writing, has always been sad, dramatic and depressive. Such a gloomy place I would say. That's how Sweeney Todd was pushed to the edge, ending his miserable life with such a cold and cruel murder. Who to say he is wrong? Or right?

When life is unfair, it haunts you even in your sleep.

You might be more hardworking than others, but yet, you might not be successful.
You might put in most effort in your work, draining yourself to to the edge of insanity, but yet, you might not get the recognition from your superior.
You might been the one most caring and most willing to be there for him/her, but you might not be the one he/she loves.
You might help out the most in your family, but you might not be loved and respected like your brother.
He/she might be the nicest person to you, caring and loving, and understanding, but he/she might not be the one for you.

The world is never fair, most will agree. I agreed too.

A friend said to me that Valentine's Day is pointless. I understand that. Gifts, roses, cards, dinners etc. It benefits most to those cunning businessmen. Many people knows that as well, but yet, we still wish each other Happy V Day. Perhaps, all of us are just hoping for a little bit more love in our life, to brighten up a day, to broaden up a smile, to enjoy one more day, in the midst of naive imagination, thinking that we found happiness for real. Naive it may be, but really, this is just a hope for humanity and for having a better life.

Disabled again..

Today.. is another sad day for me. They just disabled "e-messenger", which ended my pleasure of keeping in touch with friends lately. Sigh.. exactly 14 more days, and I'll be out. Just have to be patient. Had a long talk with my boss. Many things that we've talked through and I appreciate his acceptance over my rather harsh comment. We're more like friends now, rather than him being my boss, or me being his subordinate. Frankly, it's been a long 5 1/2 half months. Unhappy i may seem, but i do learn alot while working here. Strangely, i think i might even missed this place..

School No Fun!

"So, how many homeworks you have today?" "8." "How many done?" "4 more to go, with a spelling tomorrow and a dictation on Friday." "How are you doing today?" Face slammed to the pillow on the floor... "T...i...r....e...d...." Thats the usual conversation little Paul and I have everyday after school. 6, 7, sometimes 10 homeworks per day. Thats what little Paul is having everyday. Today, he cried over the tiredness of having to do so many work. Although he's more on the sensitive side, but still, is this how our education system deal with our kids? And, today, he brought a time table for examination through out the year, which the 1st exam will start on 13th February, 5 days before Chinese New Year. (WTF!!) That means he has to start studying the not-so-familiar words. 22 days into the new year, and he has to worried bout doing good in his exam. What's wrong with the teachers, school and the Ministry of Education itself?...

Stupidity

Life has been a mess for the past whole week. Juggling between work and family is not my strength. I certainly missed mum being around. He just lost his respect from all his children. He knew it before and he definitely knows it now. But he's just too arrogant to come back and admit that it's his fault that things turn out so badly. I confronted him for his actions last night. I have never raised my voice against him, but yesterday, it's just really unbearable. If I knew what happened later after I left, I would have screamed my lungs out and bring my brothers along with me. Last night, what you did is plainly stupid. Stupid, for leaving your family behind. Stupid, for seeking for comfort from others while your wife is here waiting at home. Stupid, for not caring over your children. Stupid, for ignoring your responsibility as a son, a husband and a father. You have definitely lost what you had all this while. All because of your ego, arrogance and stupidity.
