HAPPY NEW YEAR!!


Quote :  The reason of a resolution is more to be considered than the resolution itself - Sir John Holt


well, well, well.. what d'ya know, its already 2003.  happy new year to all.  may we prosper & live peacefully for years to come. 


huh? resolution?  what resolution? oh, new year's resolution?  since y2k, my only resolution has been not to make any resolution.  it's the only resolution i've kept so far.. ;-) 


so, the mind boggling question of the day/week (coz i've to resolve this issue by end of this week, really)  is, to get it or not?  you see, from the last vacation trip my friends and i captured our 'moments' on videos.  the problem now, or more of a dilemma really, is to either do the editing and burning myself or pay some guy to do it for us.  neither of us have the gadget... yet.  the plus points is, if we were to get the connector thingy, it'll save us $$ for the next vacation video.  the cons is, non of us really knows how to edit a video or how it should be done, etc.  decisions, decisions, decisions!  i think i'll check out some sites, get more info before committing 100%.


so fast 2002 went by.  did 9-11 happened that long ago?  what difference or good did it bring to the world, one wonders....

Yes, the earth is your dumpster...


i don't get it?  didn't your parents taught you about cleanliness?  or didn't your teacher when you were in school??   or you are either plain lazy or just don't care?


i cant help it, i saw it happened twice in a day.  both "crime" done by kids that looks like they are old enough to know about such things.  but then, both of those kids threw rubbish in the care of  an adult!  and the adult, as usual, just ignores it.  didn't say a word, just choose to ignore it.  TYPICAL!!  if it were my kid, i'd ask him/her to pick it up and dispose it in the dustbin.  if there were no dustbin around, i'd ask him/her to keep it until we find one.

Few days before the new year...


i'm so glad i've paid all my bills. *phew!*  that was hard work.. really.  money comes, money goes.  i just don't get it - i work 5 days a week, 4 weeks a month for a measly sum, then see it quot;vanished" in just a few clicks (coz i pay my bills online that is).  oh well, life goes on.. and on and on and on until you die of course.. :-/


i had a great weekend.  i did some laundry, cleaned my room, cleaned Tomtom & Bubu's & the turtles crib and played some games.  i so love "syberia".  it's my kind of game man!  it's eerie, but doesn't have the grossly shooting and stuff.  just plain puzzle solving.  i should get more of these types of games, to practice thinking outside the box so to speak.  good for treasure hunt.. hehe


i really need to get somebody to fix the bathroom light!!
