And my favourite line of the day is,
"Flooded, burnt, baked and frozen,
grass can withstand it all."
- as quoted from the documentary Planet Earth
Zachary makes a mess of the living room and their mum asks both boys to pick up the toys before they are allowed a candy treat. Brandon is reluctant because he did not mess up the room, it was Zachary who did.
Their mum: "If you don't help your brother Zachary clean this mess up, he won't get to eat this candy."
Brandon (without missing a beat): "Does that mean I can have both pieces of candy?"

...coz' I have been gorging myself silly on mindless indulgences like Internet TV, Facebook games and simply doing nothing. I know it is therapeutic because I am longer afraid of my handphone's ringtone. Yes, long long ago, in a workplace galaxy one month ago, I was so keyed up I literally jumped whenever I heard my handphone ring. I have since changed my ringtone, haha.
So, life is a blissful blank right now. I'll be back when I snap out of this lalala state.
这一年来, 生活过得很紧绷,现在突然慢了下来, 需要时间适应。时间上的分配,金钱上的支配,都需要调整。
还好,因为摆脱了上班族的忙碌,不需要用消费来减压 ,恰恰适合缩了水的荷包。
对物质的欲望减少了,有点在为生活解毒 (detox) 的感觉。
