⇨A Tiny Note from my Heart. the time on my com reads 11.36pm. i'm not of a slightest bit tired. i just have an urge to blog. just something. this entry, might not be the best written story ever but it tells a tale of my true feelings, right now. a news report last wed was about an np student who passed on due to an accident during her sch trip at tioman. the deceased, was my childhood friend's sister. cherry, the sister of my friend, the parent's apple of the eye, the girlfriend of her boyfriend. is gone forever, before she had the chance to bid farewell. i bet it must have been the most heartwrecking moment of their life. i bet it must have been difficult. regardless of anything, i wanna send my warmest condelences to the family & wished that they stay strong. we face life & death. we're all humans. but why do we always need to lose someone till we realised its time to treasure? speaking of treasure - just how many of us have contemplated but never done so. i can see that now the physical world is revolving to a virtual one at an increasing rate. so fast that it scares me. well, nod your head if you're one of those who checks for updates at facebook at least every 3 hours. say yes if you're one of those who tweets about everything under the sun at least every hour. i guessed i should be standing up now cos i agree to having both of these traits. first there was ICQ, then, friendster, msn came in and today, facebook or even iphone 4 for the matter. technology is created at such fast moving rate, soon, the physical world will be depleted. there's online shopping (blogshops), internet banking, social networking and even online studies. i could foresee closed shopping malls, demolished schools & missing banks. humans will all be out of job. there'll be so many lazybums around, i could picture myself as one of those super duper fatso in a desperate state, crawling clumsily across the room to reach out for my com or iphone! hmm.. what's exactly in a human's mind? is virtual world that important? now the word important. whats our priority? this is something i've been asking myself lately. i wanted to be wealthy. i took up a degree. i was ambitious. so much so that i could picture myself standing at the foot of a building, yearning to reach the highest level without climbing the stairs. this is something i feel, everyone at my age would be thinking. but remember, the elevator to success is out of order, you have to take the stairs. i bet i was too innocent or rather, shallow-minded. i regretted not reading up on books. i regretted not using my brain in the past. i regretted now being wiser. i am twenty three this yr. i have an elder brother and both ageing parents,who put so much hopes on me but what have i achieved today? i didn't ace my studies, i wasn't happy with my work. i idle around whenever i have time and think about what clothes to wear all day out. is all these important? no.. i don't think so now. my father always says: time & tide wait for no man. all of a sudden, this phrase seem so meaningful to me! therefore, i better not waste any more time. i better not get too engrossed in the virtual world. i better love my family & friends more. i better take one step at a time, i better make wise decisions, i better think twice before i act, i better make actions louder than my words.. i better sleep now coz its late! nites...
