I do not write as frequent as I used to. Why? Busy. Lazy. Visitors stop dropping by due to the lack of update and creativity of the content. If you are still reading, wow, I'm so touched.
My lack of update does not mean not much has been going on. In fact interesting things do pop up here and there. My mind has not ceased generating thoughts from all those observations made. Yet my laziness really prohibits me to put down all thoughts into words. Recently I have been putting my center of attention into completing my degree. Along that, I am still aiming to find a balance outside work. As such, I find myself taking away some activities that I was doing before. No, I am not referring writing. So what is it actually?
I realize I do not have time in chit-chatting with coworkers that much anymore. It is either I was stressing out big time preparing for my assessment earlier on, busy juggling experiments to get them work, sticking myself on a chair in front of a computer to do some writing (I mean scientific writing), running for lectures or tied up with whatever at work. I am not complaining. I see it as a positive thing. Well, I still drop by and say hello if I bump into some familiar faces. Sometimes I even pause for a minute or two to interact with some. And I still make my complaints to a few of them. But looking closer, I find there is less idle talk nowadays. This is really a great thing. I do not favor gossips but somehow it is so easy for me to join in one. If we use our time meaningfully and cut down idle talks and gossips, I'm sure we would get more things done or to the least avoid in engaging those gossips that do not bring any benefits to anyone. Gossiping about others will not only affect whoever is being gossiped, if it keeps rolling, whoever has participated the gossip might bring themselves in trouble. Just imagine Mary getting upset about you if she found out you talked and discussed about her stuff to other people. You do not want that to happen to you, do you, especially if Mary is a friend of yours?
If only we just do our own things and cease those idle talks and gossips, the society would be so peaceful. Who cares about whether Tom is marrying Kate or is Britney truly filling a divorce? Does that matter to us?
Oh by the way, let me tell you something I just heard from John...oh come on, no idle talk please!
