Yoo hoo. Miss me? I didn't get knock down by a car, F&N didn't swallow me, I'm alive and kicking. Just that my mundane 8.15-6 life has got nothing much interesting to blog about. And the IBM of mine is seriously getting on my nerves. I'm thinking of getting one day of MC, just to make time to go down to CIT to get that damn laptop fixed (then at the same time I will visit the doctor in school! HAHA. Cheap thrill)
Work is, hmm, how should I put it? Super mundane. Its tax comp after tax comp, piles of files (eh, it rhymes!), form C, P&L blah blah over and over again. But then there's a saddistic part of me which kinda likes it, and another more normal part of me which can't really stand it, like how alot people can't. You know how people go crazy when they deal with nothing but numbers. Contradicting, I know.
Anyway, I was reading some Singapore Budget 2007 Synopsis published by EY and I saw something which the head of tax (of EY) quoted from the book "The World is Flat" by Thomas Friedman:
"Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.
It knows that it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up.
It knows that it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death.
It doesn't matter whether you are the lion or the gazelle.
When the sun comes up, you better start running."
I found it quite interesting. But a BIG SIGH kinda interesting. But well, that man is fried! HAHAHA.
