Maturity begins when we're content to feel we're right about something without feeling the necessity to prove someone else wrong...
Right, the problem of my computer doesn't seem to be the cable I identified yesterday... Will require further testing to pin point the problem...

恢復
Practice is about increasing your repertoire of ways to recover from your mistakes...
I think I've finally discovered the reason behind the instability of my computer - an unreliable cable... Removed that cable this morning and everything worked fine immediately... Though I can't really confirm that is the exact cause until my computer has been running fine for the next few days... The cable looked perfectly fine but I threw it away anyway...
Last weekend was not bad; didn't get to use my computer at all so was forced to spend time out of my house... Though I was out most of the time, I didn't spend much money... Perfect way to spend your weekends...
Someone suggested a very cheap and special dating activity - having cup noodles at the top of Mount Faber... I boiled the water from home and brought it to Mount Faber in a thermal flask... By the time we reach, the water wasn't boiling hot any more but still enough to cook the noodles; only problem was the lack of it... The flask wasn't big enough so we didn't have enough water for 2 full cups... We still enjoyed the noodles though, just no hot soup to warm our cold stomachs... Only when we were leaving that I remembered there are petrol kiosks at the foot of Mount Faber; we could had bought the cup noodles there and brought it up just in time for it to be consumable... But that would totally ruin the fun of doing this as it is the effort required that makes it interesting in the first place...
Well, that's the most interesting part of my weekend... Went for band practice on Sunday morning and not much activities after that... Will be going Batam with my mum and cousin this weekend... This would be a weekend that I'll have to spend a lot...

缺眠
Using your time at night is not efficient; you'll need to sleep more than you used to recover...
After sleeping for only 2 hours, I'm back at work again... Amazingly, I don't feel any different from my normal days... I do feel sleepy, but that's what I feel everyday... Haha...
Last night was a total waste of time... Met up at 11pm for ice-cream then went Changi beach to look at aeroplanes... After which, played pool at Queenstown and finally supper at Bukit Timah... By the time I reached home, it was 5am already... I usually wake up at 6am everyday to prepare myself for work but set back an extra hour today to get that precious 60 minutes of extra sleep...
Seems exciting? Nope... It was very boring... Then again, its who you waste such time with that matters...

回顧
You are enslaved only because you allow it...
I just read through my entire blog since day 1 and its pretty nostalgic... Remember my last post talking about me always talking in riddles? Well, quite a few of my past entries were like that and even I couldn't understand a few of them... Haha... Just realised how good I am at making people confused...
The way I write haven't changed and there's no indication that I've matured much since then... This sort of means that I've been pretty matured back then right?
Though things have not changed on the surface level, there is a slight change in my personality from 3 years back... I got hold of some articles and it changed the way I think and react to the world... This change made me very confident about myself; probably too confident at times... I wouldn't say its a bad thing though, it got me out of many unfavourable situations and into many favourable ones... I'm in a very different position than I was back then and it wouldn't be obvious by just reading my blog...
Looking back at those posts, I tried doing some of those quizzes again... Not surprisingly, I'm more evil than before...

還原
Ever stop to think and forgot to start again?
Back to work again... The long break was good, it made me want to stay at home lesser now...
The past week of work was boring, its still boring now... Its not that I have nothing to do, but there is no direction and urgency in doing it... We're given 2 days to do something that can be done in an hour... What's more, the 2 days is very elastic - our manager isn't that free of a man so we'll have to try and catch him and the 2 days may become 2 weeks or so...
Though I don't stay at home that much now, I'm looking forward to weekends more than ever before... Made new friends and met up with old ones, opening up a lot more opportunities and activities to do...
Yesterday, someone said she'll have to keep alert whenever she's talking to me because there's always a double meaning to things I say... If she didn't concentrate, she'll miss a lot of things I'm saying... Haha... She's one of the few who catches most of what I'm saying... or rather, what I'm NOT saying...
I just realised I'm always talking in riddles, creating lots of questions and answering them with more questions... Why am I doing that? Hmm... Why not?
