It's good to be inconspicious. For one, you can spread whatever rumours and untruths you want, and nobody'll remember you said it unless you're actually dumb enough to own up. Even if you blog it, nobody'll remember because you're hardly ever noticeable.
Some people, on the other hand, have their blogs so popular that you see it on half of the school computer's histories.

Oasis concert today was the bomb! They are some good, I must say. Not to mention the great company. One of the few times as of late I've laughed so hard.
Walking in circles only to end up some fifty metres away from the Singapore Indoor stadium, however, was one of the biggest wastes of time I could come up with. ever.
"Eh, I walk under this underpass before! And I got home!"
*Five minutes later*
"Eh, the only thing we can do after going through the underpass is...cross right back?"
"Now I remember, I made this mistake before!"

Nothing in life ever goes to plan. I'm sure you'd know all about it. The late days. The wrong answers. The awkward replies. Some of these you can just accept and cast aside absent mindedly. But the real measure of a person comes when he shows how he can switch his agenda to make the wrong answer the right one. How he treats an end as a beginning. Which is true that after a while, you've either changed your plans too much to know what your real aim is, screwed up too much that it becomes so customary you dont even bother anymore, or already turned into a broken shell. Indeed, these are the times when people have the greatest oppotunity to prove themselves. If not to the world, then to the self. When complications in the plan throw a monkey wrench into the grand scheme of things, a real person doesn't sweep it under the rug and flash a cheeky smile, he simply smashes it to bits and sweeps everything up.
To be flexible is one of the greatest assets a person could ever hope to have.
