Dear readers. I have decided to stop contributing to this blog. Thanks for reading.
ever had one of those days when everyting fails?
was supposed to go to a 2 day department retreat at some castle. went to the train station on time. but the snowfall the past two days and the cold made the trains malfunction. can you imagine, a country that experiences -30C temperatures buying a train that cant work in the cold? so i waited 30 minutes for the train instead of 5. and when the train came it was packed like sardines. and the 20 minute trip now took 55 minutes. so i was late to the bus terminal and missed the charted bus the department provided. That would have pissed off my boss i guess.
on the way to the station in the train i realized my phone battery died. so i couldnt call anybody to tell them i will be coming late. i dont know if they waited for me, i dont want to ask. when i got there, just walked over to the other platform and waited for the return train. it took the train 40 minutes to get back to where i started.
did some labwork and ran the results. i had two plates, and one totally failed. and this is a patient sample which is difficult to get, and its cells cultured for already a week, and the assay took me 5 hours to do.
then i found out that my abstract submission deadline just passed a day ago and i didnt submit it in. i dont know why i keep thinking it was in 2 days time. my boss sent me an email and for the first time, his email had exclamation marks! not one or two but !!!! four marks. he must be jumpin mad.
someone called up and asked me to go for lunch tomorrow, then a doctor called up and said there will be one patient coming in who is critically sick. so i had to cancel my lunch. and then the bloodbank server went nuts and didnt register my order. and i dont know if the order went in or not and if it didnt went in, i wont get working material tomorrow but if it went in and i reordered, i will have wastage of material.
ggggrrrrhhhhhh

sometimes life is so busy, i wish i had time to relax
sometimes i wish life would be busier so i dont need to think of some things.
words pop in now and then
i want to pen them down but then
there woudl be so much criticism i would be condemned.
people say live life with no regrets
i regret alot.
little things, big things.
things i did not so much
things i didnt do, more.
innuendoes.
its like i cant say it straight.
too many people, too many feelings
even this.
i want to be here
i want to be there.
maybe a little bit of here and there: thats paradise.
wounds heal, but the cold cracks new ones.
whats the point of healing then?
look at the mirror,
i dont like what i see
thats what happens
when you are cheap
and go for ikea.
there's a reason why
the road less traveled
is less traveled
the air is cold
so are my feet
so is my heart.
i climb up a high mountain
and think im at the top of the world
until i look up
and see another mount
throw a ball
it bounces and comes back
thats fun
thow a ball
it disappears
you walk away.

I realise that this blog only has pictures, and thats because I've gotten to busy/lazy to think about things to write as its very time and energy consuming. But I guess a true blog is one that involves some thought and have thus decided to try to write, erm, type again, though infrequent.
Stumbled upon this site,
http://www.ideapaint.com/site/gallery_work.html
Its this amazing paint that you just apply on the wall and then can use regular whiteboard markers to write and rub off using a duster. When I get my own house, I'm going to paint one wall like this. So cool!
