Humans are the strangest species

I reckon humans are arguably the most bizarre species in the animal kingdom. The proof is in many gross, unnecessary, silly, contradictory and simply inexplicable things we do. Just like how i ended up in Perth, how i tried to scratch myself for hrs and ended up nothin' inches, etc etc. Sometimes i wld wanna msg a friend who we've never talked for long for i dunno wat reason or maybe some misunderstandin' goin' on, but i jus didn't do it. On Friday i received an email tat i may have to go Tokyo for 7 months in Sept for some work and on tat day (Friday) i was quite reluntant to go, but Sat i was kinda happy abt it. And today i am still decidin' if i should go... yes we humans are just so strange. =)
