Life of Pi

The first few pages of this book are so boring that i keep yawning while reading it.But since it is required that we should read it for our english class, i have no choice but to endure it. This is not the kind of book that i like. mostly, my favorites are, spionage and romance fictions.As i read along, the story became interesting and horrific.It will make you question if this story happens in real life or just a figment of the imagination of the author. This book is worth reading and makes you wonder about your faith.If you were Pi, do you think you can get through this ordeal without losing your own mind? Pi's journey in the ocean is unbelievable but through his faith he was able to pull through.if not for his faith, he would have given up and die in the pacific.Yann Martel tells us that it is worth to have faith during trying times.

Lazy Day

Here i am sprawled in the couch tinkering with my laptop while all around me is in chaos.Yes, the house is a mess, toys are scattered everywhere- compliment of my two little rascals, dishes are piling up in the sink waiting for me, but despite these turbulence ,i still can't bring myself to get up.i feel so tired lately that even my exercise routine every weekend is put on hold.Good i have a husband who feeds me and the kids or we all go hungry. Weekends are just a lazy days for me. my energy is zapped after five days of hard work. I called it "hard work" coz' lately we are pressured to work on our butts so we can reach in our qouta everyday.But how can we do that when everything is taken away from us? like the tools that we're accustomed of using was replaced with junk! No wonder people's emotions went ballistic sometimes. Mine is not an exception either. I recall the words of my teacher in a business class , she said that, "sometimes management are just too arrogant to acknowledge that they know the job too little compared to the rank and file people who do the dirty jobs",that is quite true! they tried to make it easy for us when in fact, it's the other way around.Now here i am, trying to ease my aching body with a little massage here and there hoping that i can get out of this couch with a renewed energy to tackle the days ahead. Oh well, this is just a musing from a disgruntled observer.
