Gym Rat
We always say those people who stay in the gym all the time as gym rat. It's not a good comment to a person. It sounds very vain to be a gym rat. I guess New York City does have many vain people. After all, it's the city of everything.
I have been going to gym regularly lately. It's very interesting how I feel that I have an urge to go to gym. Does this make me a gym rat? haha..... I hope not.
We are kind of afraid those terms that would describe us as something shallow and vain. Maybe not everyone.
I started to think why we all have to work so hard to fit in some sort of society standard. The universal wise. People are community based spirits so there are always competitions between each other.
Hope I am not obsessed too much.
Annoying Day
So we all know what happened today in New York. I spent 2 hours on the road. Finally I got to work and everyone is already there. Heavy rain shut down most of subway service. It made me to think about Taiwan. I grew up in a land where typhoon always passed by. Summer is always a flooding season. After typhoon, we lived in a wetland. We don't need to go to school. Water are all over the ground. You know kids like water. We step on the water like in this giant swimming pool. How much it would be.
I found that a city had less force of nature. It tended to be more fragile when it comes to this kind of things. Once it happened, we all suffered.
And, I found one little truth. As small as we all are, we all have to go with the flow in most of time. That's sad. We could hardly fight for our right. We paid for ticket. When the train wasn't on time, we have to blame ourselves for being late. It's like in the military. I used to serve in Navy. They said whatever you are late is your fault. You should program better before you go on vacation. What kind of world it is.
Oh well, it's life. At least, we all got on the train and finally got to our destination.
