Life is like a box of chocolate

Forrest Gump’s mum once told Forrest that life is like a box of chocolate. I kind of agree because I am given something I don’t really fancy. Not that I hate chocolate totally, but if it is a box of locally made ones… I would rather pass. Cadbury made in Australia just taste better than the locally made ones. Unfortunately my life is a box of locally made chocolates. Not After Eight, not Hershey’s. You might say that the grass on my neighbour’s yard is always greener. But I can assure you that the chocolate made here sucks.

I wished that my life is like Forrest’s where he can accidentally buy some shares of a fruit company selling apples. The same fruit company that actually made millions of dollars and benefitted many others including Forrest Gump. Those apples used to come with many fruity colours. Then there was this titanium one. So cool. The little white ones were also cute. Love those in aluminium boxes too.

I heard that the same fruit company recently came out with a phone. It just blown people away when the apple farm boss showed it to the world during a huge convention about apples in the wild wild west. What is more amazing… another company used one of the apples and cooked up something new. A new apple dish! Wow, I thought the phone is so kick ass already. This new apple pie is even greater. My life is full of hope in the apple land…

Ok. Where were we? Oh ya. Life is like a box of chocolate. I know I am definitely getting the locally made ones. Shit! I work in a chocolate box… I drive in another chocolate box… when will I be able to make enough to get an apple?
