I am sick

Three days straight of windsurfing nonstop, and I am now stuck in bed, without much motivation to do much at all! My nose is all clogged, and my skin on my face feels as thick as cowhide... But again, I am really happy to say that I am improving... though a bit slowly, but I am slowly improving at windsurfing. This is really an arduous task of having to discipline myself to have good footwork on the board so that I can turn faster, but hopefully, it will pay off.

That said, I am really impressed by the wind in Singapore now, and the 25 knots everyday(for 3 days now at least) is really helping with the amount of time I get to spend on the water! Finally, after the amount of time, days and days waiting and getting totally drunk waiting for the wind. Now I know what all the guys say about going to the beach...that it is a total waste of time unless it is now! Monsoon!

Right, other than that, I just attended a good mate's wedding yesterday, and I realize that all... wait, a lot of my friends are getting married, and they all seem so darned happy it's scaring me! Not to mention that they are also asking me as to when my turn is! Oh well, let's let time tell what life has in store for me huh!

So well well, I have to get a project done, and yet, just like everyone else(I suppose) I am distracted in the evenings by everything there is to distract, the festive cheer and all the other crap that is going on! On that note, I should try and start now, and I'll see what comes outta that in 2 hours...

A totally cyclic life

I have realized that, just like a part from the show i just saw - Planet 51, that my life always feels almost perfect, and then just like that, everything seems to come tumbling down. Nothing goes my way. I realize that when I am thinking of solving all that shit that is coming my way, I really like a conducive environment. One that I have been striving to have almost all my life. Unfortunately I too realize that this environment is oh so easily screwed up, and I am constantly having to sweep the floor, clear the table, an whatever not else, just so that I can even sit there to surf the internet!

I really wonder what would encourage others to be more tolerant and understanding toward you. Hinting, asking directly and encouraging is obviously not working, and I am really wondering if there are simply sides of us all which are so self-centered that we lose sight of what is better for us in the long run. I have been trying to find an answer to that for so long now, and I am beginning to feel totally lost. I thought getting away would be good, for me to re-think what I want and how to go about getting it. I thought talking would be good, but again, it takes two to talk. Well, i think I better get started on getting actual work done rather than bitch about life... As usual, and perhaps, though it has never worked, maybe this time, time would solve it all...
