My mind has been very restless lately. I keep getting short burst of ideas about things that I need to do, but the thoughts are very scattered and unorganized. I have to learn to control these thoughts and channel them properly.
Right now, I really don’t know what I want. I have thought about moving to another country. I have thought about changing jobs. I have been thinking about my love life. All issues that I have always had a firm ground on. Suddenly, everything is just stirred up.
I think it’s high time I learn to meditate properly, instead of falling into semi unconsciousness during each yoga meditation session.
I should start going back to yoga regularly too. I went for yoga today, and boy of boy, my muscles are not strong at all.
I think I am going to take up photography and painting seriously. I have had inclinations towards them, I should develop them further.

Home Alas!
After 4 weeks of back-to-back traveling, I am so happy that my “road show month” has finally ended. I practically went to all four corners of Malaysia in the last month. No kidding. I am going have my both feet firmly planted in KL soil at least for the next 30 days. Nope - nothing will make me leave KL for the next month.
Perhaps it’s because I have always been a homebody. I cannot understand the prestige people stamp on those regional, jet-setting, live out of a suitcase life.
I hate hotels. I can never sleep well in them.
I love my home. I love the space. I love my bed.
Sometimes, I wonder if this is due to my clear and distinct preference, or my inability to adapt. In other words, a sign of old age….

The Holy Trinity
With the onset of World Cup fever, many companies have jumped at new money-making opportunities.
Big screen and plasma TVs sold like hot cakes.
The pizza boys have a whole new menu of pizzas in the colours of the competing teams.
F&B guys – needless to say – they are always geared for biggies like this.
I thought the VCD sellers are the cleverest yet. In anticipation of declined sales during the World Cup, they have formed a partnership with the bookies and the loan sharks. The former finance the loan sharks, who in turn extend loans via the bookies easily available to the football gamblers. Take about diversification and synergies. Hats off to them.

New Breed of Widows
First there were the poor golf widows. Now we have the World Cup widows.
World Cup fever brought with it sex drought. Yes baby, don’t bother about sex till July 10. In the evening, they are too busy watching the games. In the day, they are just dozing away.
Every man I know is sleep deprived. First work day of the World Cup and I already have my 2 male staff on sick leave.
I am quite sure global birth rates will mark a significant drop in February 2007.
GDP will drop with the temporary closure of the sex and porn trade. Revenue for condom companies will probably drop this month too. However, this drop will be balanced by the increase in F&B spending and electricity consumption.
The lucky ones will be the ginseng and tongkat ali producers – sales will probably skyrocket through the roof – spurred not by consumption as performance boosters, but for it’s “keep-me-awake” properties.
Historians, sociologist, anthropologist and economist should pay heed. This phenomenon can fuel a whole school of research and studies.
