King Of Procrastination
The title refers to me,of course.I'd try not to say that of anyone else unless that person absolutely deserved it...but it would a lot to beat me,I tell you.I should be at work,of course,but I promised myself I'd hammer out something on the blog before going back to reading stuff I am supposed to read but have put off doing for the past few days.These taskings will catch up with me in time,but the time has not yet come.
I did clear a couple of things I have on my desk which I was supposed to clear weeks ago.At least I got around to that.But now there are other stuff waiting for me.Two reports I have to read and glean learning points from.It wouldn't be that bad if I knew anything about those subjects...but I don't...not my subjects of interest.But I still got to do them because of they are taskings...later.I have also yet to look in depth into Saturday's recruit classifieds.There is an interesting place at Gallups for some research analyst or something...muahahah.Falls right into my lap...if I get round to reading the ad again.I've probably got to do it by tonight or something.
Oh,a couple of other stuff I put off doing as well.I had thought about catching AVP these past few days at either Toa Payoh or AMK,right after I knock off from work since they have shows at 5+ but I put that off too.I figured if I wanted to watch an action show,I might as well wait for The Bourne Supremacy and then write a review about it.I doubt I can write much about AVP or talk about the actors' performance (what could I possibly say..."the guy was impaled well..."?)but I suppose there will be action galore.Well,I'd wait till Saturday for the Supremacy.
Hmmm,I also can't go for the show tonight because I told my Taiwanese friend,Jen,that I'd be online to chat with her on the net tonight.They've got a typhoon coming and work is suspended for one day.Yippee!She asked me if typhoons will ever hit Singapore and I could only say I wish.Mind you,if it was such a impending disaster,she wouldn't have a guy trying to ask her out today for a movie because of the one day work cancellation.Apparently she doesn't want to go so she asked me to pray for the typhoon to hit...the crazy nutter.It'd be interesting if she went anyway,she'd get it from me non-stop...coming from someone who sounded reluctant,who couldn't let go of her on-off relationship with her Indian bf.Why would anyone want to hold onto a relationship that is making them suffer?I do understand the complex feelings involved because I was in one but now that I'm out of it,it's hard to sympathise.Just let go.Easier said than done?Or didn't even try?She did mention how come I've become so much more rational now when I was so emotionally-drivened then.I don't know.One have got to learn sooner or later,I suppose?
Oh shucks,it's beyond 4 now and it's raining cats and dogs outside.I should definitely end this now.Like the Seinfeld sitcom,this post was absolutely about nothing.So if you took or learned nothing out of it,well,that was the intention.
