the mind, stomach and food

just a short post today. was busy reading 3 days paper and my many emails until now it’s too late. gotta sleep early from now on (1.30am instead of 2.00am) as yesterday morning i overslept! woke up at 7.00am instead of my usual 6.30am. luckily i don’t dress up and make up a lot, so i can get ready in a jiffy… enough time not to be late for work…. but i had to hurry. i’d better revert to my 1.30am sleeping time now.

ok, let’s talk about the quote (the second one) that i posted at my tummy ache blog. everybody were trying to be a doctor to me so nobody get into discussing it. i find it rather fascinating so would like to start the ball rolling on discussing it.

Our minds are like our stomachs; they are whetted by the change of their food, and variety supplies both with fresh appetites.

if you look at what happened before election, this is so true. look at what the rakyat’s mind had been fed with during the campaigning period. and because of that ‘kind of food’ (propaganda from BN!) that went into their mind, some believe it to be poisonous food that will cause them tummy ache… er… in this case ‘mind ace’?, so did not believe BN; while most enjoy the food from BN, so they want more…. so they voted for them, hoping to get more good food! now that the election is over and the BN basking in its victory, did they get good food? but luckily there are varieties of food in the form of PAS, DAP, keadialan… and with these varities, they will give us a fresh appetitte. at least our minds won’t get so ‘jelak’ with all the food fed by BN!
