Those little short cuts
Visualised by archtomato On Sunday, July 5, 2009 at 1:47 Hrs | Minimum B.S.
Ok ok,
Of course we all try and save time. Cutting corners, little short cuts. But no matter how much time you save, at the end of your life, there’s no extra time saved up. You’ll be going, “What do you mean there’s no time? I had a microwave oven, velcro shoes, a clip-on tie. Where is that time?”
But there isn’t any. Because when you waste time in life, they subtract it. Like if you saw all the Rocky movies or those medical examinations in NUS, they deduct the mistakes and wastages. So you’ve got to be careful. You can take the Concorde to Europe, but if they show soul plane on the plane, you’re right back where you started from.
To me, if life boils down to one significant thing, it’s movement. To live is to keep moving. Unfortunately, this means that for the rest of our lives we’re going to be looking for boxes. When you’re moving, your whole world is boxes. That’s all you think about. “Boxes, where are there boxes?” You just wander down the street going in and out of shops, “Are there boxes here? Have you seen any boxes?” It’s all you think about.
You can’t even talk to people, you can’t concentrate. “Will you shut up? I’m looking for boxes!” After a while, you become like a bloodhound on the scent. To me, if life boils down to one significant thing, it’s movement. To live is to keep moving.
Cheers.
ps: To live is to keep moving.

Ok ok,
You know you’re getting old when you get that one candle on the cake. It’s like, “See if you can blow this out.” The other thing I’m not looking forward to is when they have to help you with the blow. You know those birthday parties when everyone gathers around behind the old person and blows with them? It’s sad, because old people don’t know that they’re being helped. They think, “Hey look, I’m blowing all these candles out. And I’m just inhaling. I’m in good shape. I’m going to live a lot longer.”
Cheers.
ps: I wanna die young.

Ok ok,
What if suddenly all your believes were called into question?
Up is Down;
Black is White;
Scriptures fiction;
Home is Thin Air instead of solid air.
What would you do?
Cheers.

Ok ok,
So basically… its simple. There’s a decision to make. You look at every angle. every possibility. everything that could go right. Everything that could go wrong.
You look for EVERY reason to choose both sides. You look for EVERY reason NOT to choose either side. Result? Ridiculously confused. even more so than when you started this mess.
Let’s try that one again…
There’s a decision to make. You look at every angle. You ask yourself, “what do i WANT?” Then you ask, “can i live with that now, 50 years later and after im dead?” If the answer is yes, you’re golden. If the answer is no, try another angle.
So basically… its simple.
Cheers
ps: Its Simple …

The Newsman’s a Dad Too

Ok ok,
All fathers are intimidating. They’re intimidating because they are fathers. Once a man has children, for the rest of his life, his attitude is, “To hell with the world, I can make my own people. I’ll eat whenever I want, I’ll wear whatever I want, and I’ll create whoever I want.”
All fathers think one day they’re going to get a call from the CID. “Listen, we’ve completely lost track of the situation. You’ve been watching the news. What do you think we should do about it?”. That is probablky why u find so many fathers watching the news without fail.
Cheers.
ps: Not a fan of the news.

Ok ok,
I am so tired of having to come up with another little outfit for myself every day. In fact, I will say this—and I think many people agree with me—I think eventually fashion won’t even exist. I think someday we’ll all wear the same thing.
Because anytime I see a movie or a TV show where there are people from the future or another planet, they’re all wearing the same outfit. Somehow they all decided, “All right, that’s enough. From now on, this is going to be our outfit. One-piece silver jump suit, with a V-stripe on the chest, and boots. That’s it. We’re going to start visiting other planets and we want to look like a team.”
Cheers.
ps: Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Committing 2 Commitment
Visualised by archtomato On Tuesday, June 9, 2009 at 16:57 Hrs | Minimum B.S.
Ok ok,
One way to end the relationship is adultery. Yes, Adultery. Now that’s a heavy thing. You can’t just have an adultery, you must commit adultery. But you can’t commit adultery unless you have a commitment. So you have to make the commitment before you can even think about committing it. There’s no commit without the commit.
Once you commit, then you can commit the adultery, then you can get caught, get divorced,
lose your mind, and they have you committed.
But you know, some people actually cheat on the people that they’re cheating with, which is like holding up a bank and then turning to the robber next to you and going, “All right, give me everything you got, too.”
Cheers.
ps: Committing 2 Commitment.

Life is a Storm

Ok ok,
Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. You must look into that storm and shout as you always do. Do your worst, for I will do mine! Then the fates will know you as we know you: as archtomato, the man!
Cheers.
ps: One of the best from The count of Monte Cristo.
