In the attempt to curb my fear of frustration, my New Year resolutions for the past many-many years have always been To Be a Better Person. It’s very abstract, you see, so at the end of the year, when I ask myself about the success rate of the previous resolution and I can kelentong some really good answers to respond and satisfy myself.

Since my pretty self is also pretty smart so conning her isn’t exactly easy; had my resolution been To Wash My Car Regularly Myself, it is quite a challenge to reassure yours truly whilst indeed the car had been washed frequently; could that be me washing it? It is difficult to manipulate the mind into believing that that fella washing the car is myself when I am perfectly aware that my limbs are not as hairy, my chest are much more fleshy and my teeth are not as pearly as those Indian immigrants working at the Esso car wash.

Susah you see?

So I stick to the intangible resolution – To Be a Better Person. I can at any moment produce 1001 reasons why I am a better person this year than I was the last.

This year I allowed teenagers to call me Kak instead of shoving French Fries up their teenage nostrils. Walla! What an improvement!

Last year I washed my own socks, this year I washed my socks and Azman’s socks, I washed a whole lot more socks than ever! What a better person I have become!?

I have definitely achieved my resolution! Yeaa!!

But explaining this to my girlfriends is pointless. They are so bloody neat they are hoping to hear some meaty stuff like This Year I Will Work My Ass off Till I Get Promoted as the CEO or This Year I will Master Metaphysic and Apply It in My Socks Washing Chore.

Come to think about it having riskier resolutions are not so bad after all.
Why would I even bother to create an action plan against blewing away yet another perfectly vague New Year resolution when by June I would be dead convinced that I never even have any resolutions in the first place?????

* The mind is a very complicated thing *

Fine! Let me think of something fancy. Hmm!

My resolutions for the year of 2007 are; well I resolve to eat more vegetables and fruits. I will drink more than 2 glasses of water per day. I resolve to wash my face before I go to bed. I will finish a bottle of facial toner in the duration of one (1) year or before the product quality date expires. I will buy a sun block. Then I will use it everyday. I resolve to save more money. I will buy fewer earrings. I will exercise! I will climb a mountain. I will be Jessica Alba!!! I will name my baby Miki!! I will remember my resolutions!! I will! I will!

You are crazier than I thought! You changed 3 jobs in 2 years!!! I think your job is actually Looking for Job!

Gee, I never look at it that way, does crazier make me less successful?

Well,err…no…

Hey…Now that you’ve got me thinking, I just realized that I am more successful than you!! Cool!

Two men were on a plane on a business trip when a Muslim couple boarded the plane and were seated right in front of them.
The two men, eager to have some fun, started talking loudly. “My boss is sending me to Saudi Arabia”, the one said, “But I don’t want to go…too many Muslims there!”
The Muslim couple noticeably heard and grew uncomfortable.
The other guy laughed, “Oh, yeah, my boss wanted to send me to Pakistan but I refused…WAY too many Muslims!”
Smiling, the first man said, “One time I was in Iran but I HATED the fact that there were so many Muslims!”
The couple fidgeted.
The other guy responded, “Oh, yeah…you can’t go ANYWHERE to get away from them…the last time I was in FRANCE I ran into a bunch of them too!”
The first guy was laughing hysterically as he added, “That is why you’ll never see me in Indonesia…WAY too many Muslims!”
At this, the Muslim man turned around and responded politely,
“Why don’t you go to Hell?” he asked, “I heard there’s NO Muslim THERE!”
