Life is like a Software

Was just clearing some stuff and i found my old page of notes from one of my modules. it was my 6pm-9pm class on thursday after a packed day starting from 9am. well, naturally we were all a little tired and gradually got distracted after a while. i remembered at around 7pm, i was already restless while the teacher went on when he suddenly said, "just like life, its not easy." or did he say "problems"? Anyway, that got me started on a list of why "Life is like a Software". I'm not going to say which software inspired me, go figure.
so here it is: its not really a poem though.

Life is like a Software


1. There are hang ups.
2. There are shut downs.
3. We get to restart when we want to start afresh.
4. We have many functions and they can be confusing to others.
5. There are many shortcuts, but we don't know half of them.
6. And the ones we know, we're not even sure they're actually shortcuts.
7. We must be saved to be treasured.
8. We throw useless stuff into the trash bin.
9. We can be reliable depending on the system.
10. There are a lot of codes that only certain people understand.
11. People of different frequencies nearby can disrupt and corrupt our composure.
12. We get viruses and can become infected in our system.
13. Overuse can lead to overheating and slows us down.
14. We must all be connected to the public network to broaden our data-base.
15. We can adjust our own volume but not others.
16. We cannot discover our potential unless we try all our functions, and know how to use them with practice.
17. When we want attention, we sometimes cause other programmes to slow down or to hide.
18. We cannot accept overwhelming or too much information, we must compress them!
19. We go to sleep when idle.
20. We can be left turned on (awake), but not do anything.
21. We take up energy, but still can be slow.
22. We makes wierd sounds when we are confused.
23. Pushing the wrong buttons is an error.
24. When something goes wrong, we come up with a lot of reasons for the error, which might not be true.
25. We can adjust the way it looks.
26. We can only undo a limited number of times for each action. Otherwise, the rest is all permanent once done.

Actually it sounds more like Why We are like Softwares... but never mind.
