On the many horns of the many dilemmas - Journey 26.10

I'm sitting in front of the lappie, doing my weekly "skin-ripping" face mask while painting my nails in [I'm fondue of you] on this blue Monday night. It is good.. sometimes, to have a little 'me time'... a little solitary moment.

Watched [Marley & Me] over the weekend. It is not a bad flick though I find that the story was more about John Grogan, Jen and his brood... not SO much about Marley as typical Japanese doggie films would have depicted. So, the movie title didn't really suit the movie.. (as of how it had been filmed) I haven't read the book, so, can't comment much on the literature. I thought a name like [The life of John Grogan] would have been more suitable. There is nothing really significant about "Marley and John" except that the former had been a notorious, hard-to-train alpha pooch and the latter is well, just your regular likable John. Anyhow, watch that show for yourself. I like the character played by Jennifer Aniston. She's someone whom has had insanity moments, outbursts and the sanity at the end of the day to understand what ultimately went wrong, the issues behind her anger... and the courage to own up and apologize when due. These are qualities that not many women have... I can say. It is a good learning pointer. =)

I haven't been thinking about the things that I should be thinking. About school, career, choices, wants, needs, steps... I simply ABHORE making "life-changing" decisions... when I am not at all certain of what I ultimately want or do not want. Every decision made involves opportunity costs... It is not all that simple to identify the cost variances of each choice that is to be made... An economist probably wouldn't even be able to help me on this one. Aiks.

How many more cross roads am I going to come to in this journey of life? Why does it seem like some people have it easier when it comes to making life choices and directions? Are they born with a map that tells them where to head? Or am I born without a map, or was I born with one but I got lost as I didn't even have a minute sense of some navigation skills?

I hate this part of the journey. Absolutely hate it.

  1. Hiya, not sure if you remember me. :) You asked me about the everyday minerals spree. Well, I've organized one and a few of my colleagues are keen. Do come by my blog @ www.sanses.com for the spree info. But I will be ordering tonight, cos I 'opened' the spree last Thu. =)
