My holidays

Apart from the continuation of work schedules, i set aside sometime to head out to Bangkok and clear up my environment.

I went to Bangkok not long ago. I believe there are big events on the hill, just awaiting my presence. I believe there will be a big challenge up ahead, in terms of time and effort as well as sacrifaces needed to be made. - frostdude

The Bangkok trip was an eye opener even though it was not my first time there. I guess it was a good getaway to spend time with my dear father whom sometimes i take very little care of. Forget about all those television shows and movies, this is the real deal and sometimes i regret not seeing eye to eye with him, though he can be a little pessimistic sometimes. I had two whole days with him and i guess i might have influenced him a little, seeing that he gets through the day and come home with little stress. When he's overseas with my mother, she makes him so stressed up and forgetful of things that even after the trip has ended, she's nagging about other jolly SHOULD-HAVE-DONE things.

Aside from the trip, I had a big clean up in terms of room and electronics. Well, like they say a room is an essential belonging that reflects a person's life and personality. I try to keep things in order and spacious coz they say space allows someone to breath and think out of their mind. Well books are in order and files are ready to be punched.

For electronics wise, i threw out some old printers and CPU casings, totally rusty. I had my two hard disk checked out. Managed to clear and cleaned up all those stored junk since September 2009. I believe this is the best and only long holiday i'll ever experience since my days after O levels. My days after O levels have been a straight run non-stop followed by army a few days later and even during army, it was a test of luck, tolerance, dignity and a reluctant's days work.

The next holiday for me is like probably a short 2-3 weaks term holiday followed by another long stretch of Final Year Project work. after which graduation and the road ahead is gonna be monotoneous and painful.

And lately, health has been an issue. It's bleeding every day. Painful as it might sound, water is the solution.

I hit the movies and tv series real hard this holiday. I had a whole list piled up on media player, and it was back to back compliation. Bioshock 2 and Mass Effect 2 were brilliant past times as well. For Alien vs predators, i think the game is juz too wide and dark, abit sickening.

My video making frenzy has taken a tow and i've decided that maybe its not as promising as it sounds after all. How would i put it? hmm, like many say its a dream and we should pursue it but another side of me tells me, what for? its time consuming? and its a short lived entertainment for what achievement? personal joy and satisfaction? That does not measure up to anything. I guess the laziness has gotten the worse of me.

As much as holidays are good, i believe its time to get my mind, bones and eyes working again. And perhaps lessons to learn should be reviewed on the past entries. I believe next term which is in 2 days time, i will choose a better team. I guess a team should be one which i can control and interact with and team members must not be seen as a competitive threat. That insight and view should be greatly present and forseeable before i ever pick a team member in my group.
