DIGGING A HOLE

DIGGING A HOLE


There are so many things clamouring and demanding for attention. Grrr!

Suddenly, the emails received per day increases by as much as 10-fold (Gasps! Imagine that!); all of which are academically-related (yes, not spam mail). Updating this communication network site, checking that Portal site. Collecting and compiling of documents. Networking with this, liaising with that. Brainstorming. Reading up on this, searching up on that. Replying emails. Keeping up with plenty of email loops. Exchanges of SMSes (for goodness sake, please just give me a ring. Well, not literally; though I seriously won't mind. One that's of white gold, please?). More emails. More SMSes. E-learning. Checking for new documents. Printing documents. Check email. E-learning. Read SMS. Check email. Reply SMS. E-learning.

I shudder each time I see new, unread emails. I sigh whenever the mobile phone vibrates with incoming SMS (for goodness sake, please just press the "dial" button). But then again, I am also tempted to ignore whenever I hear the ringtone ringing. In short? I want a hole in which I can burrow into. Away from the evil clutches of technology; far from the reaches of emails, SMSes, and phone calls. As elusive as the Phantom who lurks the opera house. Now you know where to find me if - and when - you need me. A hole, I mean. Not an opera house or Victoria Concert Hall.

I'll faint if the handphone goes "Chirp chirp! Fei ge chuan shu!" again for the night. Shhh! Be silent!

Thank goodness I still managed to find time to blog. Hohoho!



Guitar tomorrow! GASPS!



Despite yakking so much, I actually kind of enjoy it. Being busy. Feeling alive. Feeling useful. The things to do. The occupied mind. The buzz. The life. It keeps one from getting cranky and rusty.

Time for bed! As one advances in age, it is prudent not to neglect leading a healthy lifestyle and maintaining a social life.

Sleep earlier.
Eat healthier.
Cut down on coffee (3 cups per day just doesn't sound health-friendly)
And... Gyming on Friday!

That's life. It should never be a bore; or a chore. Life is all that you make it out to be.

Woot!
