Life, all of it.
'How should you lead your life?'
- An exercise in nonsense by Me.
Firstly, know the answer to life's 3 big questions: where you are from, what you are supposed to do, and where are you going. And this is the most important. A life without purpose is pointless, and you're better off dead.
Secondly, find joy in the small things. It is hard to be satisfied, simply because satisfaction is perfection, and sustained perfection is unattainable. Be happy in the little things, the way things are, in every little luxury of life.
Thirdly, don't be distracted. TV is the worst distraction possible. So is the general habit of slacking. So is anything that cannot help you in any way. Distractions steal your time, and time is something which doesn't take very long to disappear.
Fourth, have a role model. Nearly every great figure had people they themselves looked up to, and respected. Be like that, never forgetting that person's achievements. Yet, stand on his or her shoulders, and carve out that niche in society which you can call yours, and which will be your lot until the day you die.
Fifth, have a role model, but stay true to yourself. Most of us begin work at the bottom of the career food chain. We take orders from our superiors, who assign us tasks. True, you must complete that task, and that is the basic requirement. But in every task, let your personality show. Remember, your value to society is your uniqueness. True, you must be conform to a set of rules. Move within those boundaries, seeking to push them further and further out. Alas, never break them, or you'll be confined to an even smaller box of rules.
Sixth, always be observant. Keep your eyes and ears wide open, and never stop learning, even when you're more experienced than those around you. do not despise a rookie, because there is always something you can learn from someone, no matter what both of your positions are.
Seventh, keep your actions wise, and be wary of the consequences. the past is a ghost that haunts everyone, a haunting that increases with every passing moment, as the sands of time trickle past that thin line called the present. Things that you do will someday return to affect you. If you have done wrong, those wrongs will one day hinder your flight.
Eight, trust, but don't trust wholeheartedly. Give yourself a fallback plan, and expect anyone and everyone to fail you. Do not put your faith in the material, whether breathing or inanimate. Everything around you will one day meet its end, and the only things which cannot betray you are things which you cannot see. (think about that.)
Ninth, be afraid of failure, but don't make it your worst enemy. Everyone who sets out to achieve their dream will encounter failure. Yes, be afraid of it, and let that fear be your motivation for doing well. Never be defeated by failure, but instead, let it be your friend, always pluming your wings for higher flight.
Lastly, break all of the above rules every now and then. No one likes boredom, which is why good girls sometimes fall for bad boys. It is human to want highs and lows in your life, and that respite has to be your own doing.
...
If you desire for life to be perfect, then convert every day into a routine that cannot go wrong. And don't marry. If you are someone who dislikes surprises, then sharing your life with another human being is that worst thing you can do to yourself. Seen how bachelors live? Their life is (mostly) perfect, a rehearsed clockwork of chores, work, and bodily functions, designed to reduce loss of time.
Trust me, I know one.
...
oh, and p.s.
PERSECUTE ALL EMO PEOPLE!!!
yes yes, emo's cool and all, but those who are emo (or claim to be) either are just weak and plain pathetic, or seek attention from others. Plese avoid them at all costs. Either that, or beat them down.
=)
...
Waha..
Enough idealism for today? =p

Like a racing rat.
When it feels like playtime is gone for good, and you're on fast-forward to life's end.
Switchfoot - This Is Your Life
yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
yesterday is a promise that you've broken
don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
this is your life and today is all you've got now
yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose
yesterday is a kid in the corner
yesterday is dead and over
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
this is your life are you who you want to be
this is your life are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose
and you had everything to lose
Luckily, now I'm only having a sneak preview -_-

Seat of Long Hours
My desk. Woohoo. And one of the books of the company's library. And the Dell workstation I stare at everyday. And the weird 'unfinished look' interior decor of the office.
By the way, that's a damn comfortable leather chair =p

Truth?
Superiority is about control, not abstinence.

Drug
For some, it will be a hobby.
For some, it will be gluttony (haha).
For some, it will be people, the medicine of laughter that eases one's mind.
For others, it will be music, either in the sanctuary of home, or in the anonymous darkness of a club.
For yet others, it will be sex, fleeting pleasures of physical contact.
These things are temporary, all a drug to fill in that missing portion of the soul that is beyond the natural.
then again, if you do it often enough, this distraction won't be temporary at all, won't it?
When you get your serious first job, and realise that that's how you're probably gonna spend the rest of your life, all your world comes crashing down, and you are desperate to find an avenue to balance against the monotony of work. More often than not, you'd turn to those things named above.
At the end, just don't say...
Sorry, God, for not fulfilling my purpose. I was too busy trying to conquer the world for myself.
