A note of clarification to my previous entry that 'all men are bastards'. Haha, no ah, I din mean that all men are bastards for I myself is not one, ok? On the contrary, there are really very nice and sincere gentlemen out there. As spoken to Ms Foo last evening, I wud never forget the few BS snrs whom I met during BS FOC2000. These guys are great! Their mannerism and attitudes have greatly impressed and inspired me to learn more abt Buddhism then.

I have just received an email from my Japan colleague. I feel very frustrated reading it as I know tat will be the first thing in my head when i wake up tommorow morning, and the first thing i have to do when i reach my office desk. But i really took pity on these japanese of having to work 'so late'. I heard that many of the japs have to purposely stay back late at work to show their 'worthiness' and value to their families and neighbours. Even if they were not needed in the company, they will visit pubs and such and wud never go home early. They do not want to be seen as 'lobo'.

Imagine ur life is all about work. You wake up in the morn and u report to work. Then u spend the next 14hrs working, and then u go back home to sleep. The cycle repeats. It reminds me of a dog chasing its tail.
