Logicless Logic

this day in may.

Today is 31 May 2008, so says the date above this post. It is, and will probably be an insignificant day in the history books for me, and most people around the world. For me, it has been nothing but a bumming Saturday starting from 10am, when I started bumming, until now, when I am still bumming. There is no event that causes the newspaper editors to rush into overtime. Therefore, it's insignificance to most almost makes sure of the fact that 20 years later, not many will remember 31 May 2008, unless it happens to be a birthday, anniversary or some other event worth remembering.

However, today is special in its own way. It is, after all the only 31 May 2008 in the continuum of time, and will always be. Some might argue that there will always be a 31 May the next year. But just as 31 May 2008 is different from 31 May 2007, 31 May 2009 might bring about new surprises you never knew it could. It might pass pretty much the same way as today, but it is inherently different. You are one year older, as is everyone around you. New friends may have been made, old friends lost touch with.

So today might have been spent in the company of the new Mayday(how apt) JUMP! The World Tour DVD(or to be more sadly realistic, in solitude), but it's still special. Until I forget all about it 5 minutes later. Onward to June, the month which used to be holiday month but is now no-holiday month. Not a single public holiday?! The government ought to conjure something up!

So my recent blog posts have mostly been something about days, because thats how my life is going. Day by day by day until I start counting by weekends. Which pass as mundanely as weekdays due to my tiny social circle consisting of DVDs and internet.
