woah it has really been quite a while since i last updated. have been really busy with stuff like mid terms and what not. had a chance to watch another good movie. 13 conversations. its a very dialogue based show, so if you are the sort that likes things to be happening all the time, this really isnt for you.
qiang's birthday is coming up and we still havent a clue what to get him yet. i was just saying to him that we will eventually resort to simply treating each other to birthday lunches like how people in the 30s or 40s do because they dont have the time to do anything else. but the idea is starting to grow on me really. i mean rather that buying something which may or may not be fully utilised by the other person (like dust collecting stuffed animals), we might as well have a decent mean together and the melange of great company, soothing ambience and sumptuous cuisine. i know i've said this about a million and a hlaf times but i'm really starting to enjoy and treasure good company and of course interesting conversations. i find cheesy small talk really superficial and mentally draining with nothing u can take away from the whole experience that would be of any value whatsoever. there is, however, a difference between small talk, and plain crap. now crap is something we could all really do with every now and then. a conversation that has no head nor tail, no meaning, no topic in particular. hell not even any sense for that matter.my sister has gotten me to start playing fifa manager with her. yes you read it. FIFA manager. of all people, me. not exactly the biggest fan of soccer, i guess i decided to just jump on the wagon for kicks (no pun intended) but i think it's starting to grow on me althought it's a rather buggy and poorly made game. soccer matches are quite interesting afterall. i guess partially its because in the game, matchs usually last for about 10 mins real time so there really is more tension in the air. rather than smearing the effect out over 90 mins. but man, the amount of moola these people earn. sports is the way to riches man. my mum wants me to make my kid play tennis at age 2. haha we'll see about that. ta!
