Listening to: Savage Garden - Tears of Pearls
Come Undone
I've finally experienced what it means to be a mindless zombie, or to live in a world gone mad, without reason, without thought, and without even knowing that you were caught up in it...
Went out with my JC friends today, arranged a quick meet-up session at Brewerkz for dinner as it was one of their birthday's... things quickly went downhill after that with a friend acting like a crackpot and attempting to lie down on the seats in the restaurant... complaints or comments about boredom... and finally ending up at a LAN gaming shop playing mindless games... and the graphics and gratuitious violence was sufficient to keep them enthralled... until tiredness claims them in the morning I guess. I'm not disparaging them... it's just so... mindless. I find it so difficult to put it into words - simply because I don't think human beings should ever have these kinds of experiences...
Then again I can't really blame them... it's a simple way to escape the hurt and the meaningless and the hopelessness outside. It just brings them to a different level of meaningless and hopelessness in the process.
Other matters - just when I thought it was safe to breathe a sigh of relief... I find out I have to massively re-do some of my work.. hip hip hurrah. As Prof Chua says - I'm a masochist.
In the news - WP is back from Berkeley... Jeremy's and Limin's birthday today...

The death of you...
