My first try in framing my pics...haha..
Well, the reason behind why my post today is named rojak is a good one.Well simply put, I haven't been blogging for three days already and this post will encompasses three tales.Well, of course in which I hope to just present a jist of it.before i begin my so called 'essay', i wish to quote a poem by Robert frost entitled,"The Road Not Taken"

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;


Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,


And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.


I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.



There and then the beautiful poem tells of a choice that one had to pick, but i myself loved the last two lines which i had highlighted in orange. I could still clearly remember Miss Maha's (Principles of Advertising) class that day where she made a generalisation that humans are creatures of habits.Her statement is very true.She gave us a scenario in class which my friends and I could relate to.her example says that when we enter a room or even the lecture hall which my friends and I had class, we tend to look for our friends.It has been our common habit, that when we enter the room we have a tendency to look for our friends which we know and most likely sit next to them.If it happens that we do sit with strangers even though our friends are there, well i think on that day, lightning just struck our heads and made us cuckoo.

Then again, this thought came to me when i was with kiki in curve.Kiki got a job offer to shoot a commercial for a company who develop security system called Verisign.Kiki being the mumbler, she pulls me into this job, hoping that if she doesn't get it then i would get the job.Alright, so kiki, this dude and me were in STARBUCKS in The Curve talking terms with him of the job prospects etc.This dude offers $500 to shoot two commercials which the camera and etc would be provided by our side.Well, it sounds good and all, but so many flaws just came out of the picture and so i pushed the guy's offer in the end.To juggle between studies and work is not an easy task to do.But sure enough if i am really desperate to work, i was thinking that i still have my 2 months practical training like very soon.Hence, in one swift motion and mindset, i told kiki to reject his offer.Yea, sometimes we try to dare ourselves to do beyond the ordinary or the one much doubted.But in a way, sometimes in decision-making, we have to slap (literally) ourselves back to reality.No matter how much the offer sounds good to us, let's say a multiplication of a 10 times ratio which amounts to $5000, would it be of good use?

At some time of our lives, something becomes more a priority than a liablity.For me now, studies is my number one priority and the job offered is just a liabilty.I don't want to invest time, effort and money into something which I have totally no vision in it.I don't see myself as a juggler who can balance this heavy duty work and studies altogether.Even in a relationship, it can only be one-to-one and not one to many.We must actually let go our sacrifice some part so that the other can survive.Oh, my money just flew..oh well..but my future is on hold by my own hands :)

P.S: Joanne, i updated at last..lolx
