I Hate People

Everybody should work in retail as their post-secondary requirement. I hate people in general. It may have to do with me being an introvert but I do like companions when I feel like it. After working in retail, many might appreciate what those people behind the counter go through. There are just so many idiots in the world. Some are obnoxious, some are arrogant, some are creeps, and some just don't have a brain. I especially hate people who are freaking happy in the morning. Being sincere, nice, and fun are fine, that's being polite. Being fucking happy and peppy before 9am is just down-right annoying.

A Great Big World ft. Christina Aguilera - Say Something

Such a beautiful song... I am mesmerized with the feelings in the song. My eyes did get watery.

Here is the performance from American Music Award:

Technological Backwards

Technology enriches our lives. However, I feel like it is making us "dumber."
Why?
When we rely on technology too much, we seem to forget the basic.
With smartphones and tablets, we don't know how to do certain things without them.
I used to remember many phone numbers; now, I only know my family's.
With driving, there are back up cameras, blind-spot indicators, and automatic parking. People rely them to the point that they don't think about why we need them in the first place.
Couple days ago, I saw a car with blind-spot indicators turned on. He didn't even bother doing shoulder-checks and change lanes. The truck beside him had to brake and honk at him. He is a bad driver, not only he relies on his indicators and he doesn't use them as purposes.
I only use my back up camera to back into the last part of the parking as I can't see the end unless I get out of the car. However, I don't use that to back out of a parking ever. I use the proper 360 degrees check. It's much safer.
We should never rely heavily on technology, only use them to ease a difficult task. Otherwise, we would become sheep and become dumb.

Monday

People hate Monday because of going back to work after the weekend.

I love it because of the anticipation of watching Gary and Ace together.
They always give me joy even though they are not a team that week.
At SBS Entertainment Award, Gary lost Best Couple Award to G-Dragon and Jung Hyung Don. Gary vowed to win the 2014 one. I'll support him 100%.
They need more screen time together to solidify the spot.

Meaning of Christmas

Every year, Christmas means less and less to me. To me, it's just family dinner. I don't really do any extravagant Christmas celebration. Occasionally, friends gathering dinner. Breaking all those events down, it's all the same with a holiday twist.
I have friends dinner when it's one of our birthdays. I have family dinner when it's CNY or summer bbq at cousin's. It's all the same. Not that special. Maybe I am getting bored of these events.
Maybe I should go away for Christmas so it doesn't seem too repetitive.

Next Choice...

If I am getting a new laptop, I think I may have to go back to Windows.

I love Macbook and all but there are certain programs I would love to be able to use on my laptop and not restricted to my desktop.

I know about parallel desktop and bootcamp but it's still not sufficient enough.

Until then, I better not break my Macbook.

To be continued...

There are a couple of unfinished blogs still sitting in draft mode. Don't really have time to write stuff that's not homework related. Bleh...

I'll get to finish that... soon...

On the bright side, this blog is done. I got that going for me, which is nice.
