it's somewhat close to half past twelve.
i've just completed my two assigments for M.A.D club. Mum's fast asleep because she hasn't been sleep much these few days thanks to some nonsensical course which bombards their students with tests. Dad has left for work because he has a boss who probably lacks brain cells in some part of her as she is asking people to finish their work at night when it can be done during the day -.- But on the flip side, he gets a day off(:

Since I've got no one bugging me here, I took some time of to finish reading some emails[at last]. There was this one in particualr, that actually left an impression on me. It's sent by my cousin, eons ago, just that I've not read it till today.

Basically it contains some photos(no virus), of people smiling. However, they are neither the richest nor the healthiest people on Earth. In fact, they mainly comprise of the opposite. more than often, it is the group of people living way below poverty line who truely appreciative what they have instead of complaining about their situation. Physically handicapped members of the society can come up with the courage to step into the society and get themselves a decent job, but many who are able-bodied end up in jail. They have to resort to stealing because they cannot get a decent job? It doesn't sound that convincing.

Through our daily life, we can see, some of the people who score A2s would be grumbling about the few marks which would make their result slip so much nicer. We see people falling through an endless cycle of desire to fulfil their material needs. We have friends who never seem to be contented.It is in fact less important to get everything on our wishlist than to learn how to be contented with what we have, because our wishlist would always run on. Just as we strike one item off, another comes in. Of course, it is easier said than done.

P.S: Apparently I cannot upload the pictures into blogger so I you want to view it, just drop me a msg.
