Stories ? xD

2009 started great !! Although not literally, didn't really slept well on the 1st day of 2009 even though got tired playing badminton and it was raining at night. Plenty of pictures / events flashed through my mind the entire night ... especially Abruzzi's =.= why did u come to me even when you're dead ! Been watching too much Prison Break ad. There are also a lot of random people appearing in and out of my dreams ... I feel rested in a way but it's more physically than mentally. Why is this happening again ?!

Well, despite having not enough sleep ... went on a movie marathon on the 2nd which was great. While churning out incoherant nonsense once in a while and having little headaches along the way it was a GREAT day especially when you have great movies coupled with great company. I really had a great time especially with those "moments-of-paisehness" , I just hope you did too xD

We went to watch Yes Man, Dark Floors and Bedtime Stories. Dark floors was nothing to shout about, the scare was predictable and the plot wasn't really going anywhere. The were too much use of symbolism that it became confusing in the end >.< It was trying to be an artsy movie and a horror movie at the same time which didn't really do it for me. The only reason I didn't sleep through it was because the noise is too loud and the promise of getting an explanation of the events that happened which didn't happen in the end. End note the movie sucked !! This is for those people who is thinking or was thinking of watching it. Just. don't. waste. your. time.

The night ended wonderfully with Bedtime Stories which brings me to a topic I would like to talk about for quite sometime but just didn't know how to put it into words. I will try =D

We often hear people say how much they would like to be a child again or like Peter Pan how they would never want to grow up. Life for most of us I guess, is more wonderful during their childhood years? Why is that? The world seem so mysterious and big when we are small. Every single thing is new to us. Anything can turn into a big adventure from a small toy car / truck (which reminds me I have a fleet of those use to be my pride and joy ... I think I still have the picture =D ask me for it if you wanna see haha). I still remember how a small housing are could turn into a racing track with just me and my bicycle or how it would turn into a safari when trying to cycle through an area with a lot of trees. The power of make-believe ? Life isn't much fun now that we've grown up and we've "been there ... done that" and that we know so much now. I think it's ingrained in our nature that we humans like to explore and discover things. Thats the natural curiousity of children that we all used to have within us or some still have (some define this as kepo but it's a subjective matter).

I think life could be as fun as it was for us during when we are small. The world is just as big and still need exploring. There are plenty things out there waiting for us to do and some may say they don't have the money to do it etc but I say, there are just things that you don't really need a huge inheritance to able to pull it off. Simple things that can be done out of your comfort zone should do the trick such as visiting a place you wouldn't go ? Go on an unplanned trip ( i did this the past sem hols .. it was fun especially without the planning haha) it doesn't need to be far. We have so many states in Malaysia and being in a local uni with friends in almost every state should cut the accomodation costs down a lot xD (i mean well if they are willing to take you in that is). I'm sure it could be worked out. All that is left is whether you're up to it or not. Life can be just as fun as you want it to be even though now that we've grown up and we have to worry about bills, the laundry, college activities, projects to run ... oh well I'm not that grown up yet to have many things to worry about =x Things would work out if you really want it to ... sometimes we just need to have a little faith =D

Oh yeah, and my maid left me today ... so I really have to worry about laundry, cleaning and food now T.T Another step to being independent =x I wonder when can I afford to move into the fortress of Barnitude (my own house) I bet it would be fun ... if only I can master the laundry, cleaning and food thing. And no I would not furnish the house like him. =D especially his collection, I have something better =x
