Golf

It's been a while since my last post. I'm learning how to play golf now. I think it's practical that I learn it now while I still have free access to the golf course of the company (while I'm still connected with the company) and with co-employees who also play the game. It's a very relaxing sports, actually. I can't wait to play my first game, the whole 18 holes. (Check my photo album for more golf pictures.)

Weird Carl

I don't know what the word "meme" means. I don't know if it's a real word. But I have been tagged by Eric, and when you're tagged you're suppose to cooperate.

Six weird things about me

1. I think aloud, sometimes, which is embarassing at times.
2. I don't want to go home before 7:00 PM.
3. At work, I sometimes go to the restroom and back to my cubicle trying carefully to place each foot inside a tile boundary.
4. I have a convex mirror on top of my workstation monitor.
5. I have this urge to be locked in a room with the Goong OST playing out loud that I can't hear myself thinking. I wonder how it would feel to just stop thinking for a while. I need a vacation.
6. I love to walk home from work past 11 in the evening. Empty streets, silent streets, cool breeze, dimly lit paths.

Okay, I'm tagging Girlay, Dondino, Earl, Natnat, Ron Michael, and Mungkey. None of them will probably do this meme, so I'm also tagging you. Go do it now. :)

"Book" meme from Eric

Tagged by Eric with a meme. The rules:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
6. Tag three people.

My book is The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery given to me by my friend Kathy from Accounting who is now in Dubai. Thanks, Kath. Unfortunately, there's no page 123. The last page is 109.

Look very carefully at the landscape so as to be sure to recognise it if ever one day you travel to Africa, through the desert. And if you should happen to come upon this spot, please do not hurry on. Wait a little, exactly under the star.

Just in case that would be breaking the rules let me find another book, thicker this time. The nearest one is a command reference that is the same book that Eric had in his meme. So I guess it's the next book for me. It's Tranquility in a Whirlpool: Wisdom Within by Shreyas Morakhia. There's a page 123. Thank God. :)

I concluded that the world we live in is unreal and only a projection of our mind. Let's now give some more thought to the three creative tools of the mind i.e., thought, word and action. I discussed earlier that the process of creation starts with the thought, which then proceeds to the spoken word, which then translates into the physical reality through action or deed.

Okay, I think I'm sure I followed the rules this time. I guess I'm tagging Girlay, Earl, and Dondino. I don't know whether they have enough idle time to do this, though, so feel free to do the meme if you want. :)
