Sometimes you just don't know...

In this world, does it really help to be polite, should we be very transparent about how we feel? Transparent in a way that people will immediately see your mood. Is there really a thin line between transparency, honesty, and being careful not to hurt or aggravate other people's feelings?

How fast does the world turn?

• Could it be that we are living in a fast (changing/ evolving) environment that we forget to be humans? Have we become creatures of change designed to follow the whims of people in media?
• On values- are we still in touch with the supposed good values taught to us when we were young? Just an example, I had a meeting in a big firm. We were squeezed inside a boss' cubicle and unfortunately all seats were taken so I had to stand up the whole time. Too bad. But then again, would I feel bad if it happened to a colleague and not to me?
• Do we really have a strong desire to become filthy rich to the point of becoming corrupt or steal from taxpayers? Would i feel bad about it if I didn't pay taxes?

The reason for writing this is that I tend to be apathetic at times specially when events don't involve/ affect me. Is this right or wrong? Is everything really about being good or evil? Or is living really about trying to be happy?

Since this is the first, let's talk about me.

I still have work to do but since this would be my first legitimate blog entry, I decided to postpone work till later. Ever had those days when you don't feel like doing anything? Well, this is one of them. So, I decided to do this and maybe share to you how my usual week in QC goes (As if you'd be interested...). Monday to Friday is consumed by work. It's the usual struggle of finishing something (be it reports, proposals, presentations) before deadline. In my case though I haven't done anything that's way before deadline (Hmmmmm... I wonder why.) I usually wake up 8:30 A.M, comes in 5 to 10 minutes after 9, opens my computer, checks my Friendster account (What a nice way to start the day), Philstar, Inq7 and starts with paperwork, interviews, documents, etc. Then LUNCH. Yum. Work ends 6 PM but extends to 7 or 8. My weekends are special since I get to watch movies (will talk about latest seen movie, House of Flying Daggers later) and TV and most of all I get to sleep.

All in all, I could say I live a more laidback life here. I actually have control of my time and finances (no choice, I have to budget). But, there's still no place like home. Back to work, back to work.

...but stupidity is not thus handicapped.

I always wanted to have one of these. However, i fear that I may not be able to maintain this as my schedule is quite irregular. I don't intend to chronicle my life through this blog. It's more of writing something about my current state of mind. I don't think this would reflect something deep but I do hope everything would be "nice reads." Anyway, read read...
