Entry 37: Spell Check... 3 Stages...

have u ever realised how technologies changes our lives?...

true...
technologies probably have enhanced our lives...
make things more convenient for us...

but it also definitely make us stupider...

or at least it has made me...

i just realised while writing that despite a good knowledge of the language...
or a perceived good knowledge of the language...
i actually is not as good as i thought...

and like all human beings...
i need to point my finger somewhere other than myself...

so instead of blogging about how my laziness...
or stupidness made me stupid...
i am going to blame it all on technologies...

What~? Up~?...
technologies...

i come to the realisation that due to the convenience and availability of dictionary.com and spell check...
my brain have ceased to make an effort on remembering words...
and how they are spelt...
words only appeared as a faint, mispronounced sound in my head...
and everytime i type...
i just conjure up something similar to these sound...
and let spell check do the rest...
and if spell check cannot help...
there is always dictionary.com...
or worst come to worst...
google...

so one day if i am left with a piece of paper and pencil...
and i have to write a message and stuff it in a bottle and hopes that it will float and brings me the help i needed on a stranded island...
i really hope the person on the receiving end can adhere to my mis-pronounce sound and understand my message...

to make it safe...
i have also made an effort to remember the spelling of things i would probably need...

my phone...
spell check...
internet...

ripping this off my friend...
recently during a train trip...
my friend and i discovered this new theory of the 3 stages...

basically...
when u feel down...
and fustrated and all...
and u happened to be a girl...

these would probably be the 3 stages u would go through when u have a conversation with someone who feels the same and meet there criteria.

1. self-blaming...

the two of u would begin by blaming urselves...
listing the things u thought could be done better...
how u let down others...
how u let down urselves...
blah blah blah...

2. praising each other...

then u would enter the stage where u started praising each other...
to perhaps make her feel better...
u are not that bad...
no u are not that bad...
yada yada yada...

3. praising a common someone...

and finally u would reach the stage where the 2 of u start to praise that somebody...
i mean it didn't work praising each other...
so what better  way than to divert all ur praises to someone who is not there...

and seriously it is true...
my friend and i witness this first hand...
and to be clear...
i hope that girls would not be offended...
i list being a girl as one of the criteria because i have never seen this happen to a guy...
probably that guy has already been punched to death for being a wuss...
but seriously...
nothing demeaning...
just an observation...

Slumps...

by the way...
i have chosen stickman...
