Far fetched day dreaming..

If anyone of you guys watched scrubs, you'd be familiar with J.D's imagination as he always does when someone says something interesting. I always have these moments when someone says something, a picture pops into my head. So the other day, I was sitting in front of my pc at work, thinking of the stuffs I could do at home. I had one of those moments, i was thinking about immortality.

What if, in the future, we could use the phrase "forever 21" and it actually means something. That age will not be a barrier, and no one would fear death for it will be non existent. What would the world become. Would it be a better outcome or would it destroy us all? If you have the chance to be like what you are now forever, would you? You'd keep your youth, which most tend to lose once we reach adulthood. You be young forever, you could do things in 50 years that you were not suppose to. You can have more time for more things, more goals to accomplish. Time will not be a limit, 24 hours a day will mean nothing, for you have eternity.

If mankind can live forever, it could change everything. If mankind can live forever, precious earth resources will continue to be used. When the last drop of petroleum has been mined, humans will think of a way to create new fuel sources, this will result in new advancement in technology. In a few years time, someone would have created a new type of transportation. We would have discover and built a machine for teleportation. Lightspeed can be achieved and we would be in touch with other races in the galaxy. Maybe at that time, there would be a international galaxy federation, earth would be invited to join because we have achieved the speed of light. Next thing you know, it's just like you're in a star wars movie, light sabers will be a reality, space travel if like travelling to the next town.

Poof! Back to reality, my boss just walked pass me. If only we could live in our imaginations.

Turn on your TV's ! (or torrents). The season has ended. For the summer, you would have nothing really interesting to watch. Though, i would be looking forward to Psych if it returns. The following shows have already had their season finale.

1. Grey's Anatomy
This was a great season for Grey's. Izzie suffers from cancer as Meredith and Sheperd takes the next step. We still see the other side of Callie Torres as she dates Arizona. Hunt and Christina were together but Hunt nearly killed her because he has post war trauma. It was an emotional roller coaster. I left the finale to the weekends because it's a two hour special. Can't wait!

2. Supernatural
Lucifer has risen. Where would the story go now? The angels were actually trying to raise Lucifer while Castiel didn't agree and wasn't on the rebels side. Lilith was the final seal and Ruby was actually playing Sam to make him kill Lilith. It was a great season for Dean and Sam Winchester. Looking forward to the next season!

3.Lost
I haven't caught up with Lost for a while now but the last episode i saw was Ben was judged by the island and her dead daughter appeared, asking him to not hurt John Locke or she will kill him. It's getting less draggy and i'd be finishing it soon.

4. Heroes
I have not watched Heroes for this season as it was getting kinda draggy and boring. Though i have the complete season and will watch when i have the time.

5. Fringe
My favourite show, alongside with Supernatural, The Mentalist, Lost and Grey's. If you love mysteries and the impossible in the world of science like teleportaion, mind reading, dark matter, human experiments, this is a must watch. You'd be a fan in an instant!

American Dad and Family Guy also wrap up their seasons last Sunday. The last episode of American Dad is funny as hell while Family Guy was so-so. Most of the series are going to end soon such as The Mentalist, How I Met Your Mother, Two And A Half Man and much more.

The show i'd be looking forward during the break would be TOP GEAR ! My favourite automotive program returning on June 21st!

I guess it's time for bed. I will end this post with a song. Some of you would have never heard of this band, but they are good. Feature on Grey's Anatomy Season 5 Epi 20.

The Rescues - Break Me Out

Until Then.

Epiphany (Not Really)

There are a few things that i planned to blog about but i keep forgetting. It was never a habit of me to write down the things that i wanna blog about because, well, i like to be spontaneous. But i realize that we cannot be that all the time. Somethings need planning, need time to work on it, need time to practice. Spontaneously will only bring a fair outcome, well, to me, i don't know about you guys. I used to think that i do not need to go through my points during a presentation when i was in diploma, i felt that since i can speak, why can't i do it during a presentation? I ended up looking for words to say, pausing, ummm-ing all the time.

This does not only apply to speaking, but also decisions, actions, work, all sorts, but i think girls like guys to be spontaneous. It surprises them when guys do something out of the box, something they would not usually do.

I watched Yes Man yesterday. It was a good movie, i would say. After finishing the movie, i sort of think to myself. Am i shutting myself from the real world? Everybody has a group of friends they really trust and would do anything for them, do i have that group of friends? When opportunity comes, i don't have the confident to say yes.

I remember there was once i was asked by a fellow course mate to help out in a event for our school. Become the Emcee for the event to be exact. I thought to myself, i would not have the confident to stand up on a stage facing a crowd and speak. So i decided not to. When i come to rethink that decision, it was a stupid decision to say no. It's a opportunity for me to step up, no harm done. I think i'm not really a risk taker. I am scared of what will happen if i fail. I only do things that i'm confident i can achieve them.

And there were a few times where my classmates asked me out, i refused because i felt akward. Honestly guys, no offence, i thought that i was the "wierd" one in class. I could not get into the circle. So i decided to box myself up and stay in my comfort zone.

Sometimes i think that people think that i have everything, great life, good friends, good results, but i do not. It's not a bed of roses for me. I'm just like every single soul out there.

All these things that i have done, was because i did not have the courage to actually try something new. I did not say YES because i'm afraid of the outcome. There was once i thought that i actually overcomed the phase. But i realize that, psychologicaly, we who are afraid tend to shove ourselves back in to our comfort zone, telling ourselves everything is alright. A naturalist, doing nothing about whatever that happens.

Looking at myself, i would say that i do not have really good friends. Just good friends, not the ones that would stand by you no matter what happens. It's rare to have friends that will be by your side because i feel in this era, people are all egoistic, fighting for themselves, fighting for survival. My life ain't that sweet either, but there are people that are worst than me out there, i shall not compliant. There are times when i had good friends, really good friends, but i let them slipped away, didn't bother to make contact, catch up, all just talk no action. Slowly they just forget, forget that you ever existed. Because you did not bother to keep in touch. Yes i believed that happened. It is also that all of us has just walked our own path, meet new people, new life, new environment, the old one just got replaced.

One thing i really hate is that people have this thought that since i have a girlfriend, i don't really need my friends anymore. I would ask, " Why didn't you ask me out??", " You got girlfriend what...". I hate that. Doesn't mean that i have a girlfriend i don't wanna hang out with my friends. I have time for both my girlfriend and my friends. I hate that when people have that idea about me.

I think i need to start to live the life, grab the opportunities, take risks. Say Yes to more things. You never know what you would get when you say Yes.

Lessons from playing poker. There are always up's and down's in life. But if you dare to take the risk, it might just pay off.

*P/s, picking up advice from movies is never a good idea. Please do not try anything silly*

Until then.

*O Ya. I'm back in Penang. Going back to KL on Saturday. Industrial Training starts next week. Anxious but excited.*
