Abe admitted to hospital

BBC NEWS | Asia-Pacific | Japanese PM admitted to hospital


A days after he announced his resignation, the Japanese Prime Minister was admitted to hospital for a stomach complaint. This may be caused by extreme stressed as he had been under pressure ever since his party lost the upper house elections in July.

His condition is unknown at the moment. He is supposed to continue his duties until end of September, but with him admitted to the hospital, the situation may not be that clear at the moment.

Abe quits while Estrada gets life

Something that caught my attention for today is the latest fate of two Asian politicians: Shinzo Abe resigns as Japan prime minister while Joseph Estrada, the former Philippine president has been sentenced for life for corruptions.

Most of the time, we just feel how great it is to be someone important, like the leader of a country. However we almost certainly oversee the challenges coming. There are great resistance on things that you want to push through and temptations everywhere to lure you in.

Of course, it takes a great man to accomplish something big. For normal people like me, the most suitable lifestyle might be finish the work of the day, sit back and read some news about the highfliers. I might be earning peanuts compared to them, but I can do away with all those nonsense and have a good night sleep at least(?).

Well, I am not really sure about this, but I have not been able to sleep until 2 a.m. recently. I do hope that I am just messed up with my biological clock somehow and it is nothing serious. That doesn't really affect my daily life, frankly, I just need to make sure that I have a cup of coffee before I start to work. I have been trying to reduce the "dosage" though, replacing more and more coffee with chocolate.

Some people says it might be caused by pressure. As much as I want to deny it, it is true to a certain extend. There are things in life which I hope I have already done but keep procrastinating due to timing, money, priority............ I am not really sure. I just keep pushing them aside whenever I have the chance.

Sometimes I wonder, should I just left everything behind and move to country side and start things over again. But then, I am so attached to the Internet... =(
