i need retail therapy

Who came up with the concept of "therapy?" The Greeks. Who can do better healing than a half-naked masseuse/masseur. Recently completed another short novel - Winter's End. It's a thriller about a murderer who intentionally gets caught. The police are unable to find out who this person is... initially he seems to be a record-less, name-less, background-less person. In the end they find out who the murderer actually is. I wished the author had been more dramatic in uncovering who the person really is, and how he is related to those who investigating the murder cases (there has been a string of murders and apparently this John Doe was responsible). What motivated him to murder? Revenge/Avenge+Murder=Therapy? You tell me. I'm reading two other books at the moment, "The Way We Speak Now" and "The Dice Man" The Dice Man is crazy. Many many allusions to the Bible used in this Book. Very very contemporary... liberal. That's enough adject...

sunday morning

Well this happened a long time ago. One fine Sunday morning, Daron woke up late and decided to have buttered bun for breakfast. The bun was frozen, so he thought he would microwave the bun. Before microwaving the bun, Daron sliced the bun into half and spread butter on both halves. After setting the temperature to 600 degrees Celsius, for two minutes, Daron skipped to the living room to catch a movie. The following pictures illustrates what happened next:

no I still use Windows XP

Hello, Found out that even though I'm still running on Windows XP, I can actually get the Windows Vista look! This is how my desktop looks like now. After installing, my laptop became slower. I'll see how I manage with the new-found look and the acquired slowness.

to all of us who work behind the scene

A quote by Henry Rollins I found while reading up on singer, Joshua Radin "Listen to the stage manager and get on stage when they tell you to. No one has time for the rock star act. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they are completely unimpressed with the infantile display that you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they will be there hours after you leave tearing it down. They should get your salary, and you should get theirs." I could feel this ... from the tip of my hair to the end of my toes.

spinning in my head

It's Saturday night/Sunday morning. I should be asleep right now but weekends only happen on weekends. This Sabbath was quite interesting. The church pastor will be talking about Sabbath-keeping throughout the Sabbaths of this month. He mentioned the necessity of saying "No!" to requests. That's a skill I have yet to master. Another point he brought up was that the Sabbath is meant for communion with friends, family, and God. Well, some people will have to take that seriously. A few updates for this week, I think you know that I have rearranged the room, and I am on the verge of buying some traditional-Thai looking furniture/items to fill the room up. Don't ask me why I'm buying these things when I'm close to leaving. Yes, I've started using this traditional face wash and cream. Many of my friends are using it and it has proven worth trying. Look at the blue!! What's in the lamp? What's in the book? What are you looking at? Zits galore. Pls pe...

wednesday morning surprise

Looks like we're not in Thailand anymore! Can't even see the goal posts nor could you clearly see the SA building Where is the library? It was like Ivonne and I woke up in the set of "The Fog" of "The Mist." We soon realized that we were not warped to those Hollywood sets due to the fact that Tom Welling and Thomas Jane were not in sight. I would want to wake up like this more often. I would also really LIKE to wake up on a bigger bed, a bigger pay, a bigger brain, a bigger 'body,' not-so big zits, and the list gets bigger. Could I PLEASE TAKE OFF from work today?
