make life easy

Here's a pic that shows how you can make your life more difficult. While the chain may serve to make it harder for stranger to slip their hand through the door to open the door fast, it makes it harder for you to leave the house easily too. But do not worry, soon your muscle memory will kick in and you can solve the maze in seconds. When that happens, that's when you get a bigger/ more complicated maze.

While some people come up with inventions to make our life difficult, there are also people who try to make our life easier. Remember how difficult it was to color within the lines. My pre nursery picture coloring book is nothing to be proud of either. So Toronto Zoo has come up with the perfect coloring book for toddlers who love to color animals (effortlessly). The 20 page coloring book allows kids to stretch their color creativity as they alternative between the 5 Crayons of snowball white, polar white, frost white, igloo white and the popular Arctic white. So is this 5 colors or 1? I would think its more like 5 shades of the same color. Kids no longer have to worry about coloring outside the lines anymore. They just have to make sure they use the polar white, and not igloo white, to color the polar bear.

i think i like Polar white more than popular Arctic white.

investment

From the Straits Times' article, Woman now 'owns' the Sun, a document issued by the notary public declared Ms Angeles Duran as the owner of the Sun.

The owner of the sun (yes, the sun in our solar system) said "she now wants to slap a fee on everyone who uses the sun and give half of the proceeds to the Spanish government and 20 per cent to the nation's pension fund. She would dedicate another 10 per cent to research, another 10 per cent to ending world hunger - and would keep the remaining 10 per cent herself." wtf and wow. Talk about an eye for investment.

then won't tropical countries have to pay more than temperate countries to use the sun now? o.O

tonight

The library was freezing and dry. The wet weather caused the temperature to drop further; the cold penetrating. The two mock papers I tried today were long and intense. Despite all these, the day ended surprisingly relaxed and enjoyable. It could be the tempo. It could be my improving ability to follow the beat. It could my company I had for the evening. It could be the people. It could be the possibility of finding another social life/interest outside work. It could be the stupid jokes during supper. It could be a lot of stuffs. Now I look forward to Thursday, it's like my secret other life.

All good things come together on Thursday.. and Sunday too.

Totally sums up my evening. It was a good night.

read

Instead of studying for my exams, I ended up reading Zachary Burt's Blog. It's a pretty good read, especially the post on "what makes people click with each other".

i clicked with it immediately.

card

I came home one night and I saw a birthday card on my table. It's handwritten, home made and had kiddy stickers all over it. On it, it says...

Happy Birthday,
Brother!
I know there have been
times when I bugged you,
teased you and pestered
you. But on this special
day, I just want to let
you know. . . . I PLAN
TO CONTINUE! :D

some people are just looking for trouble. (:

[Thank you. It almost turned me into fuzzy, cuddly teddy bear.]
