Ted talks
Tuesday, January 7, 2014
So, my new thing to annihilate boredom at work is to play Ted talks in the background while I carry on my mundane, mind numbing work. Funnily enough, they do sound like most of my Sociology lectures at NUS. Maybe thats why I don't sleep in lectures, because they are that interesting! I miss university life, more for what I was learning than social activities. Most of them (ted talks) are thought provoking and mind blowing. I absolutely love it when I hear things from a different perspective, or when the guest speakers bring to attention certain subjects.
And while I am doing stupid excel shits, I get to learn new stuff as well. A far more brilliant use of my time!
Anyway, one of speakers I was listening to was from Improv Everywhere. I love their videos on youtube! Absurdity is a funny thing. It separates one from the other and yet connects strangers. It made me think of that time I saw a woman dancing on the train and how I was uncontrollably trying not to laugh. And when you see others trying the same, you instantly feel a strange sense of solidarity with them. Weird huh but I never thought of it this way before.
P/s: omg i really hate clients from hell and this bus smells.
