Hello me, long time no deep thought XD.
Anyway nothing really interesting happened over the past few days. Hrm, lets see... Well i met Jess randomly and top man as she was looking for a gift for a friend. Expensive taste huh XD. Also i was just walking around parkway the other day and like 5 people trying to sell some chinese jinseng started talking to me... in chinese... i just said like @.@.. and kinda just said wo pu cha tao... dunno how to spell that so nvm. Haha and 2 taxi driver's thought i was chinese... I dont see how that is even remotely possible -_-. I mean indian ok... but chinese ??? Just because of the way I talk. I hate this prejudice that malays must have the "malay tone"... I know i don't really have it but i grew up in a family that speaks english 99% of the time so i guess that contributed to my voice tonality. Ok w/e. So yeah thats it for yesterday...
Wednesday went to study at airport with Jolene Jinyi and Leslie haha. Quite productive for me :D but at the same time quite... @.@.. Trying to teach Jolene math is so HARD. And whenever i said X (cube) she would laugh and i would be like ... lol ok... Well that jsut portrayed my failure as a teacher. Cancel that of my list...
Ok well since i have nothing interesting to blog about from now on i shall talk about the concept of money because i was thinking about it as i handed a note to the petrol station cashier to buy milk tea.
Money is something that we see people cowering over everyday. When you see a man walking his dog, he's probably thinking why did i spend my money on this dumb dog? When you see a housewife washing the dishes, she's probably thinking how much would my water bill cost? Is it more profitable to just eat from disposable plates? When you see the average student walking to the canteen, he's probably thinking, WHY THE HELL DID MY PARENTS WASTE MONEY TO SEND ME TO SCHOOL! I WANNA WIN 10000000 DOLLARS AT WCG SO MUST START PRACTICE NOW! So as you can see, money is a very complex unit of measurement that some person created so as to annoy the shit out of other people. Of course, anyone who say's i don't need money as long as i have _________ is probably lying.
Here are the few phrases that people say when they feel like they don't need money: FSDS ( Frequently said denial statements)
FSDS 1 : I don't need money as long as I have you ! Actual thoughts: Omg where am I going to find an expensive enough valentines present
Basically saying this statement is just to tell the person you love that you DONT WANNA SPEND MONEY on them and they dont have to spend money on you.
FSDS 2 : Money does not make the world go round Actual thoughts : The earth rotates on its own axis haha..... I <3 money
So you see this person is just trying to say that you don't need money to live your life. Well essentially you don't need money to live a GOOD life. The world itself has been made for man to live on, but now money is a prerequisite to living. Though you can be happy without money. Does not mean you can live without money. Perhaps you live a 3 day extremely happy life without money. Of course is not everything but nonetheless you need money.
FSDS 3 : (Upon receiving a gift) Aww it's the though the counts. Actual thinking : WTH IS THIS NUB SHIT PRESENT ??!!! But still....
You see basically it is the thought the counts and that is what reaches the heart, not money. But if you just simply make something out of the goodness of your heart for your loved one sometimes it is not received as well. If you continually give them "from the heart present" then your just saying your not worth spending money on. Occasionally it is important to spend MONEY and get a nice gift. Just once.
FSDS 4 : Here you go charles! Sweet for children's day :) Actual thinking: Why the hell is the school spending money to make children have cavaties.. Oh hehehe... wait those little demons have to miss a day of school :) :).
So you see even teachers the so called child lovers sometimes hate children because of money. They wonder why they are not being paid more whereas the children are getting money in the form of sweets. So you see money is somewhat evil in this sense because it creates a vicious cycle. But then we must remember the hard work the teachers labour through every day in order to teach their students. labour of Love <3. So they sometimes have a write to think as such.
In conclusion money is clearly a necessity in our lives because it has created and built upon the infrastructure that our ancestors developed. I myself will never say money is not important because its a blatant lie and i don't want to go to hell for such an insignifacant white lie :). So you see, saying money is important actually can send you to heaven ( If your not a murderer, pilferer, robber, lawyer, stock broker, garbage man, horse rider, assassin and whatever else.. i am too lazy to list down). Hence money is important though it is not everything :).
P.S Happy life =/= a long life sometimes. So don't burn your cash on the stove like the Germans :).
Joke of the day: A local United Way office realized that the organization had never received a donation from the town's most successful lawyer. The person in charge of contributions called him to persuade him to contribute.
"Our research shows that out of a yearly income of at least $500,000, you give not a penny to charity. Wouldn't you like to give back to the community in some way?"
The lawyer mulled this over for a moment and replied, "First, did your research also show that my mother is dying after a long illness, and has medical bills that are several times her annual income?"
Embarrassed, the United Way rep mumbled, "Um ... no."
The lawyer interrupts, "or that my brother, a disabled veteran, is blind and confined to a wheelchair?"
The stricken United Way rep began to stammer out an apology, but was interrupted again.
"or that my sister's husband died in a traffic accident," the lawyer's voice rising in indignation, "leaving her penniless with three children?!"
The humiliated United Way rep, completely beaten, said simply, "I had no idea..."
On a roll, the lawyer cut him off once again, "So if I don't give any money to them, why should I give any to you?" (Lawyers are evil and will go to hell :D)
