Well it's about a month. Time's relative so it's all good I say. So holidays now. 2 weeks precisely. Probably going to rot myself silly but it's still early, so I'm still optimistic. Sides, I'm hoping the assignment's going to keep me busy. Yeap. That's what I've resorted too. My sense of fun is now confined to a certain sense of impartiality and relief-depending on what assignment I'm doing-upon completion of an assignment. Go figure. Besides the obvious fact that I need a break and, I don't know, a revamp on my rather bleak view on life the holidays good actually...welcoming I guess.

So thats all one needs to know bout me. So on to greater things.

Ah mahl. I just got off a shower. So I'm too lazy. And sleepy. So consider this a prelude to another post. Meanwhile....

It's a monthly thing

this updating process. I am a firm believer that the propensity of updates is directly related to the amount of tags you get. Joy.

So, hypothesis aside, what to blog on.

Let's see I've been busy to say the least. I mean, relatively busy of course. What I do don't get close to the shit those med kids have to do AND YET they still hang out and club more than I do. Well, given the fact that I don't club-I mean the very word clubbing doesn't make sense, we could go on all night on what constitutes a club-but it's still a dismal attempt at a social life if you think about it. This is all in retrospect of course. Fact is I couldn't be bothered with my lack of gregariousness. I mean, we're all gregarious but some more than others obviously, but I digress.

So, let's see. Something interesting. Well, the US election's kicking up a notch. Obama and McCain just elected their deputies. And I'm no sexist, but you gotta be surprised that McCain, of all candidates-namely Obama-chose a female running mate. Namely I suppose because Clinton is the first person that comes to mind for a Democrat vice but one can understand why Obama wouldn't want to choose Clinton. Suffice to say it ain't good for the office to have 2 big names under one roof. Especially since one just lost to the other in the primaries. Then there's also the high propensity that Bill'll be seeing some Carly this time instead of a Monica. But it's intriguing how so much hype surrounds these elections. I mean you got Scarlette Johanson gunning for Obama, then you got Mayer going for McCain or Ron Paul, either way their Republicans. Truth be told the American election must be one of the most interesting elections. Even Pete Wentz is getting into it.

It just goes to show that economically, what either of these guys do isn't going to matter. It's precisely because of economic independence that there's this stiff competition. Cause if you think about it, if you're poor, and the current government ain't doing shit, you're going to want change. And if the next one isn't doing shit either, you're going to change again. And the choice becomes simple, pick the one that didn't fuck up. If you run out of choices, choose another guy to head the party and pick that guy, praying he don't fuck up. And now they're finding it hard to get people to actually vote during election. To a certain extent I understand why. My theory is, it'll all to do with complacency. If you're satisfied with what you have, why change the system? It was the same with Singapore, and still is now I think. It got to the point where the ruling party-PPA is it, or something like that-was winning every conceivable seat so comfortably that there wasn't really a need to vote, cause the ruling party would win anyway. Of course a couple years back the government found that the communist were suddenly gaining ground, very little I think, and the government got a little frantic. Kiasu people right.

But it goes both ways I suppose, where if you cry long enough and no one comes to your attention your just going to give up altogether. It's getting better now with Iraq I suppose. To a certain extent you gotta admire the Americans for standing up to their constitution of freewill and a right to vote. Truthfully, it probably is the longest standing democratic republic in the 21st century.

Bein, so ends my duty. At the rate this blog's going it'll probably be dead in a couple of months. I don't like it's probability of surviving. Or I should, less work. Either way, I've got a test. In a months time then.

P.S. Safina lost. Fucking Williams. I hope Janko kicks her black ass tomorrow, no racism intended of course. I genuinely don't like the Williams sisters. Tiger Woods is cool in my books. So is Usain Bolt. That guys just nuts.
