Too Freaking bored in the office with nothing to do.. :(

Insights to the ISrael nations' history

Need to remember the fasinating pictures that I had seen in the photograph exhibtion of Israel by David Rubinger and Paul Goldman. first time i see such emotions and passions just in the pictures.. capturing of survivors of holocaust, celebration after the creation of nation 1948, settling from "illegal Immigrants" to nations to having the women in the army. ..

Additional comments from David's website about the above picture:

"What I would like to believe is a typical image of the Israeli Defense Force: There isn't one soldier in this line who is standing in the same position as another. Everything uniform about an army is missing. That was typical of the army of the '50's and '60's. No saluting. No Prussian drill. No bullshit. But it wasn't a bad army, by any means. One of my editors, a former US Marine officer, once visited Israel and commented, after seeing a few soldiers in the street, "They're about the sloppiest looking soldiers I've ever seen. But they sure can fight!"

Comments frm david's site: "Five years after the 1967 war in Sinai, I returned with colleagues to have a look at the battlefield. The wind had blown away the sand, revealing a macabre memento of the war. The hand of an Egyptian soldier who had found his grave in the dunes. Next to it was his helmet. His forefinger was pointing to heaven as though in admonition. No More War. But Sadat had arrived ten years too late for him."

二十来岁的危机

有人说人到了中年时期会有忧郁症， 中年危机设么的。我看我应该是有二十来岁的危机。其实 这是一个让人充满希望与赵气勃勃的时候。而我，不知为何的，却感觉到疲累。想做一些喜欢的，却又不知道是设么。虽然工作上也做得不错，但还是没满足感。 虽然还蛮喜欢单身的生活，也觉得人缘还不差，看到周沼的人都设立自己的家庭，就让我觉得为何我没有。

可能我心里这一刻，就像是向我的blog Name 说指的，Melancholic Joy, 藏着一个悲伤的喜悦。

Walking the dog.

Sometimes a person really needs to get out of their environment and have a change, be it change of job or whatever, especially if you are doing well.

With a new job in hand, it's back to ground zero when I need the help of others, to lead me. It's like a man walking his dog, the man knows where to go, but nontheless let the dog lead the way anyhow even though the dog might be walking aimlessly. I'm like the dog now.

Metro and Vain Men

I wonder how many people actually do bother to spend a lot of money on facials and what not.. At the max, it'll be about what, couple of hundreds every other month, isn't it? And i'm talking about vain girls even. I bought one clinque at what some folks might think is cheap of $80 and I already heart pain.

And there're articles about men who spend 1000 bucks on facials eveyr 3 months?? Thankfully there're much of them around.. else they make me feel like a man .. ;P

Ideas .. Ummm

Umm.. I wonder what would people put in their blog anyway, do they blabble on about what, they eat, what they do.. who they meet etc? *Yawn* ... Y would ppl care anyway? Now, my life isn't an adventure, nor am i narcisstic enough to keep taking Kawai pictures (or at least at attempt to be Kawaii) of myself .. Looks like i got to try harder.. any idea? :)

I love Breaking Benjamin and I never fail to wonder why they are not as big as the others like My chemical Romance who never fail to reach number 1 here in sg... So here it is those of you who love BB also, (and it's not BB Back btw) Cheers!
