| [The update portion is at the bottom] This is not meant to be a valid post, just a rant... well, a semi-fake rant perhaps, but still...
well, never mind...
I just logged in after a while (been traveling for a number of days, disconnected to this realm of Xanga), expecting to see my page decorated with spider webs due to being left for a long time (my last post was like 6 days ago, which in Xanga-time, is like few months already)...
But to my surprise, someone have messed up my place, leaving behind lots of messy footprints all over....
Seriously!!
If you don't believe me, this is how it looks like right now...
sigh....
I don't even recognize whose footprints these are....
oh well, cleaning up time!
UPDATE
My effort doesn't seem to be working...
In fact, more and more foot prints is messing up my place....
as you can see...
Them search engines (or whatever thing it is) sure like to come by and visit, it seems...
Question of the day:
How do you know if a caveman is hitting rock bottom?
Answer:
When he timestamp a worthless post such as this one

| Yeah I do...
I have the things to write about, yet I don't seem to have the time to sit in front of my computer nowadays...
I so wanna be a TRUEer Xangan...
Perhaps a personal secretary to put my thoughts on my Xanga page would be nice...
Don't think that's a feasible idea though...
Perhaps I just have to have greater motivation and sets my priority straight...
For now, I'll use this illustration as my motivation to be a TRUEer Xangan...

You might have read this before, but for you who haven't, this is a good read on healthy diet.... (haha) "In a desperate bid to find a doctor that actually knows what he is talking about I was directed by an old friend in the USA to this gentleman from China and it would appear he has some of the answers. I enclose below part of the transcript from my online consultation which you may find enlightening! Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this true? A: Heart only good for so many beats, and that it. Don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speed up heart not make live longer; that like say you can extend life of car by driving faster. Want live longer? Take nap. Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables? A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does cow eat? Hay and corn. What are these? Vegetables. So, steak nothing more than efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef also good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And pork chop can give 100% recommended daily allowance of vegetable products. Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake? A: No, not at all. Wine made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine. That means they take water out of fruity bit; get even more of goodness that way. Beer also made out of grain. Bottoms up! Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio? A: If you have body and you have fat, ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, ratio is two to one, etc. Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? A: Cannot think of single one, sorry. My philosophy: No Pain, Good! Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you? A: YOU NOT LISTENING!!! .. Foods fried in vegetable oil. How getting more vegetables be bad for you? Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle? A: Definitely not! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger. You should only do sit-ups if want bigger stomach. Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: You crazy? HELLO . Cocoa beans! Vegetable!!! Cocoa beans best feel-good food around! Q: Is swimming good for your figure? A: If swimming good for figure, explain whales to me. Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle? A: Hey! 'Round' is shape! Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets. AND... For those of you who watch what you eat, here's the final word on nutrition and health. It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies: 1. The Japanese eat very little fat And suffer fewer heart attacks than the British. 2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat And suffer fewer heart attacks than the British. 3. The Chinese drink very little red wine And suffer fewer heart attacks than the British. 4 The Italians drink a lot of red wine And suffer fewer heart attacks than the British. 5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages And suffer fewer heart attacks than the British. CONCLUSION... Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you" | | |
| Before going with 'the real post', I'd like to say my thanks and appreciation for those who have take the devil's cape and play your role in tempting me to come back into the realm of Xanga...
Nope, I wasn't quitting or anything, just been busy and occupied most of the times, but those who have put their fake sad face and say things like "we missed you here on Xanga" or the likes, you guys did somewhat put that 'extra motivation' for me to 'reactivate myself'...
Basically what I'm saying is, you guys are the best!!
Hmmm... Okay, with that out of the way, I can stop pretending now... Who cares about those fool losers... Haha, just kidding, just kidding...
Okay, now I don't really know what direction this post gonna take... I bet this will be a stinky crappy post by the time I finish... But hey, it always been that way ever since, and you guys (some of you) keep reading anyway! I simply love you guyz!!! Maybe not as much as I love getting attention, but yeah, you know what I mean...
Talking about my love for attention, that reminds me of that post by shatterFocus that I, without shame whatsoever, declared as the bestest post ever on Xanga (link)....
Anyway, among the question that she asked me for the 'interview' for that post was about my favorite Xangan... With that question being asked, my mind were 'forced' to think about the Xangans that I have encountered.... There are many Xangan that I like and can call as favorite for many different reason, but I'm not gonna talk about that.... What I wanna talk about here is basically some of the Xangan that I no longer encounter here on Xanga...
Among those that sticks to my mind was niikhita and NoPenniesHere (her page was shut down I think, but here's a post (link) on her as "The Beautiful Ones" by Riis)...
Some thought do came to mind, things like "How are they doing now?", "What are they been doing?", etc....
Maybe you too have some of those feelings towards some Xangan that have gone or taking a break, or whatever, where someone that once upon a time you kinda enjoy the company of, now no longer there...
It made me think of other things, that I probably am enjoying for the time being, but never appreciate or being thankful for them, perhaps only to realize I missed or lost something precious when it's no longer there...
I'm not sure why, but we seem to only come to realization of something's value to us when it is lost, or almost lost, in some case.... Do you think this is so?
This reminds me of the time when I almost lost something dear to me, which trigger my realization of how much it means to me... I'm not sure whether to write and share about it, as it is rather a personal experience, but I think I do consider you guys as my friends, so here goes...
This happened months back...
It was my boo... Okay, I don't know why I used that term, heck I don't even understand what boo means... Perhaps I called her that because she was as yummy as Alicia Keys in that music video with Usher... Uhh, okay, besides the point... moving on...
So I used to frequent a 7eleven store just because that's where we can meet... I think I drop by there on my way to work and also on my way back from work... That was how much my affection was at that time.... I would feel something is missing from my day without those brief quality time... Day by day, that was pretty much my routine...
Until one day, when I enter the store, suddenly.... Not there! No where to be found! I gasped! Without warning, without words, suddenly.... poof!
I tried to calm myself.... Maybe it's just for that day... A day off, perhaps... I'll come back tomorrow, I thought to myself...
Day2.... Day 3..... Day 4.....
Still no sign....
I felt so lost.... I felt like, missing a big chunk of my life... My day wasn't as bright as before...
Tried to find if there's any explanation... Couldn't get any....
Still, I checked the store every other day....
Almost gave up...
When suddenly one day, when I opened the door, to my surprise, a very pleasant surprise, there it was..... once again!
Didn't actually jumping with joy, but in my mind, I really was!
Once again I have what I thought I have lost forever, and this time I was gonna really appreciate and be thankful for every time that I get my hand on my beloved KitKat Chunky....

So that was basically what happened....
I never really appreciate it before, and after almost 'lost it', I learned to really be thankful every single time that I get to enjoy that KitKat Chunky bar....
Anyway, although I hate to break it to you guys, but unfortunately this story wasn't the sort of Disney Fairytale with a happy ending at the end...
Me and KitKat Chunky are no longer together.... Chunky was eventually dumped when my attention was captured by both the skinnier Twix and the curvier Kinder Bueno....


Okay, I guess this sharing of the things I have personally gone through might not illustrate the point I'm trying to make that well...
But I think you get the message nevertheless....
Lets appreciate and be thankful of the things that we have.... and not wait until we lost it to realize its value to us....
With that being said, I just want to say...
I love you guys... You guys are great... I really am grateful and thankful for all your comments, feedback, recs, messages, mass messages, footprints, etc....
and lets appreciate each other...
(actually, I don't really know how to end and tie up this post... hahaha... I guess I'm too rusty already... sigh...)
