ViVa La Domestication!

"6 cups of coffee isn't good for you some people say, but then again so is smoking, drinking and having a girlfriend, yet we can't seem to stop now can we?"

The word domestication seems to want to stick in my memory. Why? I have no idea. All I know is that whenever I hear the word "domestication", I think of those sexy french maids. And thus, there you get the title of this post. ViVa la Domestication!

It's been a while since I've written anything and nowadays most of the post are just pictures I took (don't worry, there's still a picture here), but there has been some issues popping up around me that I just have to give my views on. It concerns the youth of this nation and also the future generations. It's something that has to be pointed out so that everyone can see it in plain view.

But before I write about the ills that have befallen us, here's a random picture taken by me. Who? Well, it's me. Doing what? sitting bored on the monorail going somewhere. Where? I don't really remember. That's my random picture of the day. Untill I get off my lazy ass and go somewhere that's picture worthy, there's gonna be a lot more self taken pictures. Laziness... it's a gift, and a curse.

I've been around and about for around twenty plus years and I believe I've gathered some knowledge of how the world works and through my astute observations I have noticed that people are getting married quite young these day. Just recently, three of my friends have gotten hitched. Gave away their freedom for responsibilities. Responsibilities... the word gives me goosebumps. It seems the trend now is to work for at least a year, save a bit of money, then get married. Why would you wanna do that? That money should be put to better use, use it on something more worthwhile, like a dslr camera(ehem2), a PS3(in my list of future buys) or even a flat screen tv to play the PS3 on. From being my money and my money alone, now it's what's yours is mine. Sharing is caring....
I'm not against marriage or anything, but what's the rush... don't waste your youth on responsibilities, enjoy life. Responsibilities are for old people. Thirty somethings. Or at least 28 somethings. This epidemic seems to be spreading fast and wide and before you know it.......... it's like they say, "youth is wasted on the young".

Remember those lazy Saturday mornings when you got up early to watch the Saturday morning cartoons. Shows like the Road runner show, Ninja Turtles and even to some extent Pokemon and Digimon. Cartoon shows with absolutely no substance. Times were simple, we were easily entertained with seeing a coyote get hit by a train week in and week out. Shows that are perfect for TV. But it seems those lazy Saturdays and Sunday mornings are no more. Children are no longer watching mindless cartoons. And with satellite TV invading our homes now, you would expect these kids to be in front of the TV 24/7 watching crap loads of Cartoon Network or Disney. The sad thing is they're not. They're tuning into channels like TVIQ. What you say? you heard me, TVIQ. Show's like How to? or Clever (you kidding me? Clever). What are these parents teaching their kids nowadays? The TV is called the idiot box for a reason, if you wanted to learn something...Go read a book!

(I'll just like to add that there's absolutely no point of having a preview button if the preview looks nothing like the actual post)

Next time wear some shoes

"To think of all things, it was a balloon that ended your season. Well, at least there's next year. Hahaha!"

As i was lying about on a Sunday, I suddenly got this bright idea to go out for a walk and snap some pictures around the hills near my house. So I went out put on a pair of selipars and went out on my adventure. And what a mistake that was. What I thought would just be a 30 minute walk turned out to be a 2hour hike. And wearing selipars was the worse idea ever. After all the hard work, all I got to show for it is a few crappy pictures and feet that hurt like hell. That's the last time I ever go for one of my bright ideas again. Sundays are meant for lying around and doing nothing.

Well, here's some pics that I think made the grade.


This is the first pic I took. I like the texture of the tree.



I call this one a fine frenzy. Notice how the one branch is focused while the others are not.



The green of the leaves plus the evening sun set. Nice.



After the long hike with selipars. This is the best view I got. I know, what a waste of time.



This, I took on the way down. It reminds me of an oil rig in the middle of the sea at dawn. The only problem is it's a construction site in the middle of the city at dusk.


I wanted to post pics of the blisters on my feet, but I think it's best not to.

Welcome to the World

"Times are changing, things will never be the same again. The wheels have already been set in motion, and i'm in danger of being left behind"

Just some potraits of my nephews that came down for the weekend from up north.




The pictures seems a bit grainny, need to learn how to edit these things out. One for the future, it seems.

on a different note, here's a shoutout to my new niece........ welcome to the world.

Around and about

"It's driving me crazy... but still, wouldn't want it any other way"

Just some pictures I took while going about in town taking the public transport.


The never arriving train... 45minutes, ridiculous.



Escalator, leading to the LRT



A bit blurred, but what the hell.

This is what I spent my one free day on.

"Why the hell doesn't anyone listen to me? If they did, their lives would be so much better. Being a level headed individual, it's a gift.... and a curse"

The new Scarlet Jo MNG add. I don't know why I went all the way just to take a picture of it, but I did and it's done. I have to say, not bad, not bad at all.
