Post-Christmas Euphoria

Hey hey.. It's me again.. 2 weeks since my last post, here I am, basking in the joy of Christmas. Yeah, I may be Hindu, but that doesn't mean I can't accept and embrace the joyous, celebratory occasions of the other religions - the presents help with the transition. Oh, and not to mention the partying. Gotta love the partying. It all ends as of 2nd January 2006 though.. it's officially my cut-off date for partying late, not that there's been much of that either. So the new year's celebration is gonna be the last late night I'll have in a long long time to come, gotta get to bed before 12, up before 8 and hit them books hard and fast. God help me.

Back to the euphoria I'm feeling, it's predominantly due to spending the Christmas eve and day-of in the company of those I treasure so. On the eve of Christmas, my time was well spent at a party with my current circle of friends at college, well, the ones who were at that particular party anyway. I really do wish i could spend more time with my friends who are averse to clubbing, but really... averse to all vices? I don't understand people who don't have vices. How could you not want to be with the hottest guy/girl? How could you not feel jealous or envious of those who have more than you do? There's a limit to indifference, I've been there... Just ask me for my pictures from Adelaide, now there's indifference to plain old looking good. I had vices back then though, dota and whatnot. Not having vices, is to me, the equivalent to not having standards. Vices are things we wish to attain, acquire, own. There's absolutely noone who is totally content with what he/her has. Maybe Buddha, but noone else. I bet if Buddha knew he couldn't end all suffering and poverty in the world, he would have a vice or two. No offence meant to Buddhists out there, but Buddha didn't end poverty and suffering. He showed us how to deal with it, and how to minimize the risk of causing it. There's pain and suffering everywhere... Oh dear, where's that euphoria gone..?

Happy birthday to me...

No, there weren't fireworks from the rooftops spelling my name out in huge flaming letters in the sky... Celebration is not quite there yet... Of course, I can legally gamble now, just waiting for a chance to go to Gentings... I need the cash, BAD. Buying the Oakleys was probably a little extravagant, but I don't care.. I'm happy widdit. Kind of mixed feelings over the past few days, United dumped out of Europe balanced of the birthday high, constantly going out for dota and futsal balances out the time i have to spend at home, housework and pretending to study. Damn, my middle finger hurts... No, noone bent it over backwards after i displayed it to them, there's something under the skin that prevents it from straightening up completely, i gotta go to see Dr. Shun on Monday, he'll apply Local Anaesthethic and i'll pretend to know what's going on with his kids in UK, and after the operation, it's off to the state assembly... Wonder if i can drive after the operation. Oh no!! No dota after the operation!! Dammit!! Hmm.. futsal still possible though. We'll see...
I gotta ciao for now.. Gotta go visit the grandmums, hope there's some income there.. I gotta live this month.. and save some for a trip to Gentings... wish me luck.. lol. Take care guys...
