try writing with a broken mind


ok now i'm having a bit of a time in my hand.

ok not literally, you can't REALLY have time in your hand. i mean, how are you gonna hold time? you cannot even see time right?

different case if it's a 'TIME' magazine.

what i'm saying is, i have free time.

not free as in non-PAID. in fact, i am actually being paid for my time now because i'm in the office and supposed to crunch up numbers to please some people now.

i'm just have nothing to do at the moment lahh...

see? my scatter-brain still works. i'm still able to write non-sensical stuff even if i haven't been writing much lately.

ok that's an understatement. haven't been writing much, i mean. in real world, i'm like that small kid who went missing for many years, started to get forgotten, and suddenly reappeared all grown up and everything.

and people was like, asking the boy what happened during all those years when he was missing? and that boy just gave them a blank stare, lost for words to describe the traumatic experience.

except in my case, i wasn't traumatic, kidnapped or anything. ok in a very lose term, i was indeed kidnapped.

by facebook and by air asia.

i am totally hooked by facebook. you know, sometimes when i woke up in the middle of the night after a nightmare or a wet dream or when some big hairy stuff trampled over me on bed (ok that last one never happened), i briefly opened my facebook account to see for any new notification, or if there isn't any, just to browse through the latest news feed.

so uncool huh?

i just couldn't help it. everytime after i wrote a status update, i felt like a pop idol who has just released a new song to the public via vevo. would it hit 10 million viewers in 3 days like that telephone video?

i know it's just pathetic, but sometime you just have to live in your small little world, don't you? and when it is getting too pathetic that you feel like jumping off the ledge, you go and get away from it all.

and it truly helps when air asia released all those zero dollars deal.

so it is not my fault that i have been flying quite a lot lately. everytime when i say i'm flying off to somewhere, my friends would ask.. again?

which i think it's a tad exaggerated. i mean, how many flights are there per day, per year and to how many destinations? i could not have flown even 0.01% of them all, right?

exactly.

so you see, i have been busy measuring mostly the south east asian region corner to corner for the last year or so, i might as well have worked in google map plotting company.

even before i had time to upload the photos and write blogs about the trip, the time is always due for the next one.

but i'm back now. for now at least. i promise myself i will stay in this island at least long enough for my seat warmed up, which should be shorter than what it takes for lady gaga to release her next hit single, before i go browsing the online flight booking website again.
