In This Politically Corrupted World...

If you were hanging from a cliff and all you needed was a fuck to save your life, George Bush would just stand there on top of you with a pocket full of fucks and say, "You know I don't give a fuck." -Chris Rock

When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. But when I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist. -western philosopher Cameron

No matter what side of argument you're on, you'll always find people on your side that you wish were on the other. -Thomas Berger

There is nothing more corrupting and destructive of the noblest and finest feelings of our nature, than the exercise of unlimited power. -William Henry Harrison

A New Dawn, A New Day, A New Life

Recent updates in my ordinary, average life (for whom these may concern):

1. It has been two months since I started working at CD, an advertising company in Damansara Perdana which is full of interesting people and events. The meaning of the two initials remain a mystery, boggling the minds of many since more than a decade ago. The job? Proofreader cum editor cum writer (multi-task beb) and to those who think ini kerja remeh dan mudah, think again. It's excruciating. Seriously. It is.

2. I am now occupying 1/3 of a flat in Flora Damansara, which is a 5-minute drive or a 10-minute jog or a 20-minute walk to and from Damansara Perdana. Being the environmentalist that I am, the everyday journey on foot to and from the office is sheer poetry. (sheer terror during thunderstorms) Living on the 22nd floor of a 24-storey flat, life after work will always revolve around home, as there is nothing else to do and nowhere else to go. It sucks.

3. The MORE I eat, the THINNER I get. (???) This would be a flawless victory to those from the other gender, being able to consume non-stop but showing no physical change. But for us guys, being too thin = erm awak ni ada isap ape2 ke? (no human organ implied here) For the upteenth time, I've had the same problems with my mom and sis everytime I meet them during the holidays. I need to gain weight!!!

Enough updates for the moment. (bos dah usya lain macam. tray penuh tapi dok ber'tenet' plak) We'll meet again, Insya-Allah. Semoga aku terus sabar menempuh hari-hari baru yang menjelang...
