I am typing this blog as I am doing my work concurrently. Being really busy recently. Makes me kinda think that my life revolves around work and more work. Come to think of it, the last movie I watched was King Arthur and the last time I went on a date with someone was like.... Damn. I can't even remember when. One of my friends reminded me recently that life doesn't revolve around work and more work. There must be a purpose behind all this shit that I am doing. Like what my manager always said; There must be a purpose behind the purpose. Well, the reason why I haven't asked anyone out for such a long period is beacuse of work. I remember the last time I met up with someone socially and not for work, I was late for near to an hour due to work. I was lucky that she was my friend. Can you imagine if she was someone that i am interested in? I think I would have been screwed. Anyway, this doesn't mean that my friend was not piss with me for being late. I still owe her a round of drinks at Harry's Bar.
The Olympics had just ended and S'pore again ended with no medals to show for despite all the efforts being put in by our sportsmen. I am not disappointed by it. I mean we should applaude their efforts. Most of us tend to judge people by their results and never by their efforts. Failure to me is just like a stepping stone to success. It is just like cycling. You must first fall before you can cycle. This is the same as life. To tell me you want to succeed but don't want to experience the heartbreak of failure is a joke. To people who never fail in anything before, I would say they are either lucky or they had never even try it at the first place. I think 90% of us belongs to this group. It is just like a lot of people have a lot of ideas on how to make it big. They can talk all day and even when they are old. It is just like building castles in the air. They just have no actual foundation. But what is stopping them? Failure. They just can't accept and live with it. I am in no way criticizing anyone but I really hope that people around me will understand the fact that failure comes to all people who make it in the end. Sometimes, taking back a step is not dropping off the pace. You need to do that so that you can leap further and higher.
Anyay, just got a nice song from Kenn. It is from the Wedding Singer soundtrack and the lyrics is damn sweet. The title of this song is Grow Old With You by Adam Sandler. Here it goes;
I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
All I wanna do is grow old with you.
I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice, growin old with you.
I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold.
Need you, feed you, I'll even let you hold the remote control.
So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink.
Oh I could be the man to grow old with you.
I wanna grow old with you.
Sweet right?? Cheers.. ;)
