Born in the wrong era? No. There is no wrong era.

everybody's in a rush. finish this, go here. finish that, go there.

"don't get in my way or i'll glare a glare that condemns you to hell even if you did just waste only 2 seconds of my life"
what's with the rush? it's not like you're actually going anywhere anyway.
alot of us are prolly just running very quickly around in circles with no real destination in mind.

we may or may not realise it. but either way, we'd prolly still be too caught up in the circle thing to bother. and thinking takes up too much time too. time that we'd rather spend doing pointless stuff. or maybe, we could in fact be doing all those pointless stuff just to forget that we don't know where we're going.

now, in all honesty, do we matter that much?

we think the world of the things that occupy us, but really, do they actually make that big a difference to our existence?
something may so overwhelm me now, but in a few months time i could prolly just look back and laugh at the sheer triviality of it all. life isn't easy. and many say that it isn't even fair. that's their opinion.

i think when the curse of sin died with Christ, the peace that we can have as a result will surpass everything else liao. our biggest boo-boo is solved. all other problems are nothing in comparison.

whatever it is, i think it's a lot more simpler than what many of us make it out to be. and it doesn't need to be so rushed also.
i would like to smell the flowers without being pushed, thank you very much.

the other thing about rushing...uhh society rushing..is the noise.
alot of people = alot of noise. whether it's shopping centres blasting music. or shops trying to get your attention, or just people talking, add them all together and it just gets very noisy. too much of it gets on my nerves. please.
it would be wonderful if we could all just keep quiet for two minutes. heck, one minute also can.

haii. now that i think about it, technology makes life more complicated also. ironic hor?

handphones got so many buttons that you don't really need and prolly never use. even if they don't have the buttons, they have the functions...that you don't really need and prolly never use. use tv also so complicated. aiyah what digital cable la. so many functions and so many buttons, fries my brain cells. do medical checkup online must do this and do that and print this and that. do a silly maths paper now need some gameboy advance advance advance that costs 175 bucks and that has more buttons than my previous calculator which prolly already has more buttons than all my previous consoles added together. not to mention now consoles also getting more complicated.

last time, mega drive: put in catridge, press "power", play.

then, playstation: press the big open button, put in cd, close the lid, press the green button, play.

then, playstation 2: on the power at the back, press the reset button, press the open/close button, put in dvd, press the open/close button, play.

now, all the consoles look so complicated...what with your blu-ray and hdtv and wireless systems and online play and media centre and what nots. the wii looks the simplest of them all...and it looks like it's gonna become the most successful too.

heh, i wonder if we'll all die without electricity too...
