A Tale of 1 Cheerio 'O'

Note: I wrote this a few months ago, probably in June or something. It is one of the many unfinished blogs under my draft folder. I think it's high time it makes its appearance. =)

----------------------

My colleague and I usually have cereal for breakfast at the office and it so happens that in the middle of this year, we were both of Multigrain-Cheerios. This is what I wrote to her on SMS one evening:

"I was doing my routine exercise of going under my table to turn off the power switch for my laptop when i discovered something peculiar... There is was, a single Cheerio 'O' lying under the thin space of our desk partition, waiting, longing and yearning to have someone notice its existence. The poor 'O' had most likely lost its way from its box while heading towards being savoured by its owner. There is no certainty as to whether it was your 'O' or mine, as it was lying smack right in the middle of our shared partition. The mystery remains...

Subsequent to the discovery, I did what any wise and responsible person would have done: I lifted the 'O' from under the partition... and dropped it into my dustbin, took my belongings and went on my way. Such is the fate of a stray Cheerio 'O' in Bayan Lepas."

Totally random, I know.. But my colleague, who didn't exactly have a great day on that very day I sent the SMS, laughed her head off.

Mission accomplished. =)

Heck It, Just Write La..

Okay, so I've not been as consistent as I would like to be in blogging. I've not had a blog entry since September last year. Not that it really matters since no one actually reads this blog anyway (I am partially to be blamed because I refuse to promote it) but I am making it a point to write/ blog more consistently from now on.

I admit, I have been busy and lazy for that matter and at most times, uninspired to write, I guess. My sense of perfectionism has also contributed much to my long blog silence as I usually refrain from publishing anything that I feel is not good enough for public consumption. Not that perfectionism is not good but I realised that it is this very perfectionism that has in some ways kept me from doing anything at all because nothing is ever 'good enough'.

But I have decided to that it is really OK if my blog entry isn't perfect. What matters more is for me to be able to express my thoughts. Simply put, it's better for me to have at least tried to blog and express my thoughts and feelings than not do anything at all. So yeah, as I had mentioned earlier on, I am gonna try and write as much as I can.

That's all for now. Tune in for more soon blog updates soon!
