monday's insight

Thank god there is no school on Monday. I was beginning to feel that I’m dragging my feet to school. But really, its boring, frustrating and confusing at the same time. Anyway, let’s talk about what’s happened lately.

I’m sure everyone’s heard or seen the news about the China lady who’s been chopped up to pieces, stuffed inside green plastic bags and thrown into the Kallang river, if I’m not mistaken. That’s just plain cruel man. Just imagine the pain the parents of the deceased are going through. The murderer is sick and inhumane, and I think he’s crazy too. But, let me side track for a while, craziness is our primal instinct right? I think I read this somewhere (thus spoke zarathustra, I think) and it makes sense. We’re all crazy, lunatics, madmen, insane, etc, etc in reality. But at one point of time, someone started acting ‘normal’ and everyone followed suit, because it feels right or they just want to be with the in crowd. So, what’s considered not normal now is the craziness, the insanity and the madness when it was the norm a long, long time ago. You’ll be asking me what’s my point or what’s the moral of the story right now and I’ll say that we’re all crazy. Ok, it’s irrelevant to the story but just remember that we look insane to the madmen. So don’t go mocking and laughing at people with loose screws or lost marbles. They’re normal.

Another interesting topic would be the one about the nude blogger on Sunday’s newpaper. Hey, what’s the fuss over a teenager’s nude picture man? Can’t they see that she just wants cheap publicity? By reading the interview everyone knows that she’s an intellectual who, most probably, no one cares to listen to so puts up a nude photo of herself in the net so as to be seen and heard. So what if she says she’s a self confessed exhibitionist? That’s just a nicer term for pornography, babe. Have you no shame, you SPG blogger? I guess not. I bet she loves the attention the voyeurs are giving her. Yucks.

I know I have no right to criticize her since my blog contains explicit content but there’s always a better way to be heard. Not just through nude pictures. She’s an intellectual for god’s sake. She should know better than to lower herself to that level. Ahh, no one’s perfect. But on second thought, it’s her blog and she has the right to put in what ever shit she wants to. So, why the fuss? Let her be then, it’s not as if she’s creating an exhibitionist movement among the bloggers. Blogging is a private thing gone public and so the public should just shut the hell up and stop mocking other blogger’s entries. Do you like it if someone mocked your entries? Ok, I think I should shut up because I’m part of the public and what I’m doing now is mocking my fellow blogger. Damn, right back at you di…

By the way, I can’t help but feel that everyone’s against me. It’s just so pissing me off. I can’t say this, I can’t do that, I can’t write that, I shouldn’t eat that and I can’t think that way. Hey, what the hell seh? Why is it that everything I’m doing is wrong and everyone is right? Who gave you the right to judge me in the first place? You can do it but I can’t?
Look me in the eye and say that you’ve never done and will never do the things I did!!! It’s so irritating to know that people think they are superior to you and that they know everything. Does knowing everything make you a better person? I don’t think so.

Ok, so I’m being too sensitive but hey, don’t tell me you’re not. We’re humans, we have feelings. Try as you might to ignore the feelings, it’s still there dude. Just accept the fact that nobody’s perfect. And one more thing, why should I do the things that people do?! I mean, if someone jumped from the 11th floor, should I follow him/her? Or if someone skipped lecture, should I skip too? It’s so hard living this life. There’s no such thing as an individual anymore. We’re made to move and think in batches. Is that a good thing? Well, it is when you’re in the army or something but in real life… Haiz, I think I’ve had enough of crapping about life. I’m getting kind of hungry and the smell of chicken curry is so tempting so.., Ciao..
