Life is great! But how do you measure what's great and what's not? How do we measure the good, bad, and great? Everyone standards are different. But is there a universal guideline as to which we measure things? I'm not talking about metric or customary measurements in math. I'm talking about the measurements we make in life.
Ever wonder why some people would think it's a perfect day when there's no cloud in sight. Or how about why it's a gloomy day when it's cloudy? Some people might think the opposite. A clear day might mean too much sun for some people and they tend to stay away from the light. A cloudy day might mean rain. Don't get me wrong, I sometimes LOVE the rain! But most people would hate the rain for getting them drenched and whatnot.
I don't know why but all of a sudden, it occurred to me that the only universal language (well that I know of) that everyone seems to understand or agree on is "YES" and "NO" with the head shaking. Have you ever seen someone trying to say "Yes" with their head shaking side to side or saying "No" with their head bobbing up and down? I never seen that unless of course you're trying to make an illogical point.
Is there a universal language? Is there one where everyone will understand without ever having to learn it?
But anyways, this was on my mind for the past few days. I figured I should just write all this down. And now that's out of my system, I feel very relieved and something lessen my load. It just bothers me that I have to get it out of my system.
There should be more but I don't know what it is. I'll probably find out in the future and write it down just like this.
Have a good day! :)

Just realized....
hmmm looks like i haven't even blogged for a year....usually it's like a few posts a year...looking back at 2013 made me think....
What have I done this past year? Anything worth appreciating? Anything that I was proud of? Anything that I might have been happy or excited about?
The answers to those questions is simple: nothing.
Ever since the start of this new job, I've been thinking alot and reading some interesting articles. I realized that I'm not doing enough. Enough for me to be content about my self. I just wish that lazy bone in me doesn't take over. There are many things out there for me to do and explore. I wasted precious time just doing what I want. I should be doing something about this but I don't have that kind of willpower.
Things I should be doing:
1) CLEANing my room :) (I don't get why can't I have my room the way it is. I mean I know where everything is)
2) THROW away old clothes. (usually i would just recycle them or donate them or reuse the fabric for other mending projects, but do I really even do any of the mending that is needed?)
3) SAVE any spare change I have. (I have a bad urge to spend any money lying around in my bag. Shopaholic? Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? I don't know)
4) DONATE to any charity of my choice. (well usually I donate to certain organizations. But nowadays, I donate to everything that I think deserves it! ^_^)
but will I ever do any of those things I should be doing? 70% of me says NO, while that 30% of me says maybe/yes. The more I think about it the more and more I become lazy and in the end not do anything.
