A tale of 2 sparrows

Once upon a time..there were 2 sparrows..
Flying the sparrow and Walking the sparrow.

Flying flies effortlessly from point to point, reaching the destination in no time, landing in grace.

Walking walks stride after another, reaching in no certain time the destination,
arriving in sweat.

So what's the difference between the 2 sparrows?

Spend a few minutes and think about it.

Flying has wings and Walking wingless?

Or rather Flying tells himself he can fly 1 day, leaps off and scale greater heights one after another.

Walking, firmly believing that he is meant to walk and contendedly walks time after another.

So what's the difference?
Now could it be that there was no difference to begin with?

May anyone who wakes up and see this, ponder over it, reach a firm conclusion, and become Flying 1 day.
Let this be a boost to anyone in need of one; me included.

Always thought I was Flying the day I was born; maybe I'm just another wingless sparrow who could never fly but envisages a great time flying around.
But that colourful picture sure looks interesting. Only time can tell, but really it looks interesting...And what am I doing now?..


Actually smiling at my monitor!!! Or perhaps it's my monitor looking at me smiling.
I guess I'm too sleepy..Hope it's a good bedtime story.

Enjoy the night, my friends...

An uncontrollable urge

Ever heard of this saying, 2 wrongs don't make 1 right?
Is the statement true, false or uncertain a la uol style.
Let me prove it Wrong with a capital W, with a simple story.

Story starts here. Back from a late night run. Timecheck 1215am.
Stomach growls uncontrollably...
Bread check. No signs of a slice
Cereal check. No traces of nuts.
Maggi...Don't even bother to check..just had 1 yesterday.
And hey..2 pipping hot eggs served with pepper and dark soy sauce...
Add a glass of marigold milk to that...How does that sound?
Fantastic..The perfect after-meal for a body draining 2km run.

Proceeded to cook or rather half-boil the egges....
5mins passed...Memory says egg is ready..Note I didn't use are..
Cracked the first and..Presto...1/4 boiled egg cooked...
Undercooked the 1st as usual...Proceeded to boil the 2nd for a while while more...
Another 1min passed, or is it 2..Errr maybe it's 2.5min..
2nd egg feels harder than normal..Cracks...Abacadebra...3/4 cooked egg...
A little smashing on the 2nd one...Ho Ho...2xhalf boiled egg ready to be served..

So the next time someone tells u..2 wrong doesn't make a right..
Smack him in the head and tell him this story..**
So what's the noral of this story..
2 wrongs might make something right...
Or at least 2 wrong makes it a little more right.

And before I end..WHY DID MY MARIGOLD CHOC MILK TURN INTO
CHOC FONDUE...NOT EXPIRED...I shall goggle it and enlighten everyone soon
Till then...Cheers

The 3 little pigs

Have you heard of the story about the 3 little pigs and the big bad wolf?
If yes..how many of us can remember the story or, more importantly, the moral of the story?
If the answer is no to both questions, raise your hands..Don't be ashamed
A little bit of googling....

The story begins with the title characters being sent out into the world by their mother, to "seek their fortune". This follows a theme, common to fairy tales, in which protagonists leave the familiar abode of their youth and its protection, venturing into an outside existence which turns out to be fraught with danger.

The first little pig builds a house of straw, but a wolf blows it down and eats the pig. The second pig builds a house of sticks, but with the same ultimate result.

Each exchange between wolf and pig features ringing proverbial phrases, namely:
"Little pig, little pig, let me come in!""Not by the hair on my chinny-chin-chin!""Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in!"


The third pig builds a house of hard bricks. The wolf cannot huff and puff hard enough to blow the house down. He attempts to trick the third little pig out of the house, but the pig outsmarts him at every turn.

Finally, the wolf resolves to come down the chimney, whereupon the pig boils a pot of water into which the wolf plunges, at which point the pig quickly covers the pot and cooks the wolf for supper.

The littlest pig built his house with the least care out of straw; the second used sticks; both throw their shelters together as quickly and effortlessly as they can, so they can play for the rest of the day.


Living in accordance with the pleasure principle, the younger pigs seek immediate gratification, without a thought for the future and the dangers of reality, although the middle pig shows some growth in trying to build a somewhat more substantial house than the youngest.

Only the third and oldest pig has learned to behave in accordance with the reality principle: he is able to postpone his desire to play, and instead acts in line with his ability to foresee what may happen in the future.


He is even able to predict correctly the behavior of the wolf- the enemy, or stranger within, which tries to seduce and trap us; and therefore the third pig is able to defeat powers both strongest and more ferocious than he is.

The 3 little pigs teaches us that we must not be lazy and take things easy, for if we do, we may perish. Intelligent planning and foresight combined with hard labor will make us victorious over even our most ferocious enemy-the wolf!

Very true indeed. And I did raise my hand. Not anymore.

Food for thought

Ah bing, being the good in weird ways person as commented by someone else always does things that most people would not have thought of.
So on a late night bus ride him..Something intriguing flashed through his mind.
Creative juices flow for the wrong reason...And here goes..

Qn: One day at another job interview, u were struck with a qn that never crossed ur mind.

Would u.

A. Using a jillionth of a sec to think of an answer and convey it, potraying a picture of realism.


B. Spend some time, think through it and try to conjure the best answer u could possibly think of.

C. Speak as u think, think as u speak..bit by bit talk ur way through..piece em all together.

D. Honesty is a virtue..Speak the truth.. "I was not prepared for this qn..Give me some time to think through it and I will givc u a satisfactory answer on the next interview."

E. Any better answers.

Upoll...
This is a series of qn. Dear frens..if u see this..just indicate ur answer and a short explanation why...A winner would be chosen and person with the most wins at the end of the series get to walk away with a $10 starbucks voucher**

Personally I rather like A and C and use them interchangeably. D sounds quirky..So guys..come share ur views..And u could just be the lucky winner.


**Voucher is only to be used in conjunction with a coffee session with me. I reserve the rights to change the prize. All rights reserved.
