My entry for today has got to do with one of my friends.
How do you achieve happiness?
Personally I find it's that drive that makes you strives for your goals, ways to make your dreams come true. It's the process whereby you plan and do things to get to that finish point.
This brings us to my next few questions...
How do you measure happiness?
What does happiness means to you?
Am I happy now?
I'm having some problems trying to answer those questions.
Juz a quick re-cap of what I did over the last weekend.
Sat: Stayed at home and rest, proceed to join my friends for a drink later at nite.
Sun: Went blading at ECP.
As I was standing beside the bar counter and while zooming pass the beach @ ECP on sat and sun respectively, I found myself mumbling, "Hey this place brings back memories. Sweet memories."
The irony is, the sweet memories brings me misery. Hahhaha Funny rite...
I don't feel too good, after blading... Maybe because I asked J along. I shouldn't have.
Sometimes, I just hate the way things turned out for me. I hate myself for creating so many problems which leads to memories that come back to haunt me.
Life is such.
Oh by the way, I just love this song:
Ironic
An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face
A traffic jam when you're already late
A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break
It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
It's meeting the man of my dreams
And then meeting his beautiful wife
And isn't it ironic...dontcha think
A little too ironic...and yeah I really do think...
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought...it figures
Life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
Life has a funny, funny way of helping you out
Helping you out

That's one of my secret favourite songs too.
Have you read the Chinese Book "Wei Cheng" (A Fortress Besieged"? A fantastic treatise on irony.
