Ah... The joy of a perfectly cooked egg.

It's the little things in life that really get to me. I read about the awe-inspiring mountains, glorious waterfalls, the fierce bubbling spark of victory at the end of a long quest. Nothing compared to an egg boiled just right.

The white not too rubbery, but not a dribbly mess. The yolk round, substantial, yet soft and delightfully chewy. And two of them!

Let others say I am inward-looking, unaware of the larger things in life! Yes, there is much to experience, vast areas of knowledge to conquer, blah blah. At the very least no one can accuse me of not ever finding contentment. Most of us spend years chasing trophy after trophy, never pausing to marvel over the little things, like a child's' smile, the wind and the leaves, a trail of ants, or a perfectly cooked egg...

Wahahahaha... I shouldn't even be on this... I should be gathering my notes, preparing for my kickass presentation tomorrow, doing my homework, brushing my teeth, cleaning my room, getting into shape, writing my award-winning novel...

On second thought, I take back the brushing teeth thingy.

Oh well. On the bright side, I'm practicing typing with more than one finger without looking at the keyboard! Yay! (trust me, if it weren't for spell-check you'd be reading a different language.)

I was reading this article on TheSite.org (check it out, great place) about how the joker or the clown of a group aren't taken seriously when they have problems. As in deep mental doodoo (emotional trauma and the like). Think about it. The person with the gags, with the jokes, who makes you laugh and/or roll your eyes... The guy/gal who always has that big smile (or maniacal grin, take your choice)- with problems like depression?

Sure, I may be taking a rather extreme/stereotypical view here, but still. Humans are creatures of habit. We get used to people behaving/reacting in certain ways. So when that person changes, do you notice?

I'm confused too.

People hardly spend any time in the present. They're either thinking of the past ('I should have done this, could have done that...') or the future ('What if... I have to... worryworry...'). So, it leads to situations like 'Woah! You didn't use to be that tall!' (take it metaphorically.) They don't notice the said person changing bit by bit each day. One day they look up by accident and finally see.

So, yeah. Em. In conclusion... er.

Focus on what is in front of you, because it sure won't be there forever. There's plenty of time to worry about the future tomorrow.

Good night all. I still need to clean the keyboard...

Hello... I just felt like typing -something, anything. There's this emptiness inside me right now. It urges me to write. Write and write and write, write myself away...

One thing that really annoys me is how my head is always fragmented. Well, something like that. One piece tells me the emptiness is just all imagined. Another is so sure its there, eating me from inside. Yet another is chiding me for being stupid, it can't kill you. And yet another is trying to remember that article from the mass of useless miscelly in here... (is article spelt right, even?)

I suppose I'll use this for the holidays, this blog. Maybe not (there go the pieces again) I don't know.

I have to clean the keyboard soon.

heya... am testing...
