Life is like a painted line running parallel to the road.. We spend so much time focusing on it that everything elese becomes a blur. Inevitably the line disappears. Maybe it goes on for kilometres or perhaps only a few metres. Someday it'll vanish while we are still speeding along. By then it'll be too late to turn back. Too late for regrets.



Treasure your loved ones. Don't let trivial matters ruin a relationship. Because one day you may never have a chance to take back that last insult ...

No more freezing summers.
No more long ass bus rides.
No more gigantic mountains.
No more grossly overpriced food.
No more friendly ppl greeting you whenver you enter a store.
No more helicopter rides.
No more beautiful gardens.
No more gift stores.
No more all blacks.
No more glacier water.
No more funky bus driver.
No more rich creamy ice cream.
No more race horses.
No more pinkys.
No more squashed possoms.
No more toilet stops.
No more 5 hour difference.
No more sun-setting at 10pm.
sigh.

24.


All hail the existance of dvd renting. Otherwise i would have missed out on an intergral part of life. The mind numbing drama series - 24. Placed in a timeslot on channel 5 every mondays at an unearthly hour of 12.30 a.m... it has eluded my detection for months now. But like all excellent tv programmes once you pop you cant stop. I'm a '24' junkie now.



Maybe its the frantic chain of events which occur in a short time span of 1 hour... real time. Maybe its because i love watching any show which involves viruses and outbreaks and infections. Thats just me. I love bio. Maybe its the way the director constructs a complex yet grippling plot every single episode which makes you wish that you didnt have to wait one week for another dose of '24'. But one thing's for certain. When you rent the dvd for $5 and start watching every episode for 4 consecutive hours until 1 a.m.. you know either the holidays have driven me mad.. or its just a damn fine show.



oh man. i was on the verge of creating a wishlist for christmas.. but i cant seem to think of anything but 24. oh no.
