Crash

There comes a time in a person's life where they wish to just slam their head in the pillows and just fall asleep. Unfortunately, it is not that simple

Google's latest assessment of insomnia says that half of the world's insomniacs have unresolved issues such as worry and etc. I stared upon the screen and wished it too explode. Then again maybe that is considered an unresolved issue.

Strange things happen when people do not get enough sleep. For one thing it is said their body coordination or stability gets well "disturbed"-lack of a better word, sue me.- Let's just say one tends to fall or bump into hard stationary objects.

It boggles me that when one third of the world are begging for sleep and are unable to, the other quarter are perfectly able to and trying not to. If only I was the latter.

Lame Jokes

"You are dead."

I was running on Christmas day. I did not know where I was heading. All I did was run and somehow I ended up in a florist. The lady asked me what did I want? And I wondered what on earth was I doing there Christmas day?

Nonetheless, there I was and it was as though my hand had a mind of its own when I took a stalk of yellow daisies. Next thing I knew I was paying for them to be wrapped up for my mum.

It was crazy. Yet it was worth it when I saw her face.

Sometimes people do crazy things without thinking and I suppose on that Christmas day, I went on an impulsive run just because I could.

I guess my point is, have you ever just stopped and done something that was spontaneous-even something as easy and meaningful as buying your mum flowers? It struck me that life is about these little stuff that happens. The memories of laughing together or just watching a movie. Its about the little things like running to a florist on Christmas day to buy a flower.

The thing is do you cherish those moments or do you let it slip through your hands?

Oh, Merry Christmas!

Spm is over and everyone is on a huge long break. Some are of overseas or outstation while the rest are stuck at home wondering what to do. Watching TV and going online is now the only entertainment. Boredom has set in and basically everyone is drifting. Some have taken jobs and started planing for the next coming year while the rest just go Christmas shopping or food hunting. The year is about to end and next year promises incredible change. For one thing, the US now has Barack Obama as its leader. Malaysian politics are still as scandalous and interesting as ever. And lets not forget Chinese New Year where red packets are given.

So go on and have a great Christmas and a brilliant New Year. The year is at an end, celebrate it!

Its 2.50 am, correction 2.51
I'm still awake, why? I don't even know why. All I do know is that I am still an insomniac. So what does a girl do when she wants to sleep?

Read. Sudoku. Drink Milo. Stare at the wall. Play online games. More Sudoku. Google-ing on ways to fall asleep.

Steps to fall asleep.
1)Think of something very calming. -calming... Milo swirling in the cup*stomach growls*hunger?
2)Make sure you have a comfortable bed in which you can get a good night's sleep. -bed.. it seems OK.
3)Soundproof your room.- It's Karyn proof..for now.
4)Read.-I did that. And I'm still not asleep. Gosh.
5)Adjust the lights to a level you are comfortable with.- It's dark, what am I suppose to adjust?
6)Get into a comfortable position, loosen any tight restrictive clothing. -makes me wonder, who wears tight jeans and etc when they sleep.
7)Practice deep breathing.-breathes in,breathes out. Am I asleep? Apparently not.
8)Imagine yourself sinking into the mattress.- *Sinking thoughts, sinking thoughts* Am I asleep? Ah shucks!
9) Imagine a swinging pendulum.-pendulum..hmm Add maths, spm, school, prom? Lizards?
1o) Count sheep.- One lamb chop, two mutton curry, three roast lambs...*stomach growls*

Gosh, when will this end?

April 3rd..

Craziness,

I was putting up my tree alone by myself a few days ago and I discovered a few things.

1) Bricks are hard to find. (don't ask)
2) Apparently I have x'mas songs in my pc. Question is where is the cd?
3) In a house that virtually has almost everything, I can't find any tape or wrapping paper.
4)X'mas lights have strange connecting wires. Very weird ones.
5) Channel 3 is weirder. I found ads that made me wish I poked my eyes.
6) I'm taller than the tree. =)

Prom...

I wonder... should I elaborate? Nah..

Life

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle and when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers .

____________________________________________

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full.
They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.
They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with an unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand. The students laughed.

'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.The sand is everything else---the small stuff.'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

"Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness. Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit grandparents. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play a game. There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal. Take care of the golf ball first---the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand."
One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked. The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of Beers with a friend.'

The rest is just sand.
