"Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree."
-Martin Luther
I would humbly beg to differ from that "apple tree" thingy. I can fully appreciate his meaning & deep convictions about going about and doing the things as planned, but I confess I am a bit shallow. If the world really ends tomorrow, I guess I will drop some of my planned activities in order to attempt the following (in no order of preference):
1. Open & drink that most expensive bottle of wine in my house (don't you guys dare ask for it when you come to my place. I will deny everything)
2. Order a full set meal from Morton Steak House (Home Delivery)
3. Throw a few eggs at my neighbour's car down in the HDB carpark
4. Call someone I love & tell her I really love her like no tomorrow
5. And then ask her can I kiss her passionately (I'll drive down her place if she consents)
6. Call & thank my parent for the gift of life
7. Call my siblings and tell them they were great
8. SMS my friends & ...heck lah...where got time?
9. Order Hilton cheesecake for desserts (Home Delivery)
10. Drive out for some D24 durian
11. Have a nice cup of brewed Blue Mountain coffee
12. Hug & kiss my wife and kid, tell them I love them, and then .....
...debate with God (means plead, blackmail, threats, act cute, bargain... ) & see if I can postpone the ending.
What would you do with your last 24 hours? What's your dirty dozen? Share leh, for the fun of it...
King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.
