This Boardwalk Empire can get pretty boring. I'm loving to learn from this about Al Capone's character arc. He gains confidence and influence, just like me. In Godfather, it's Michael Corleone's character arc that grips us in empathy too. I love what I'm doing. What I'm writing is magic. One day, I'll look back at these days as the best days of my life.
These days are the days when Mark Zuckerberg was in his dorm room. These are the days Sergey Brin and Larry Page, or Jeff Bezos were working out of their garage. It's the time when Otara Gunewardene or Aban Pestonjee sold things out of their garage. It's when Jack Ma was trying to make it work. It's when Jamsetji Tata or Dr Hans Wijayasuriya or I don't know, anybody worth my attention, worked hard to survive, succeed and be taken seriously.
It's when Hugh Hefner made his magazine out of his kitchen. It's when people took that chance and risked everything. G-d, I love taking risks. I love this. This time right now, it's the time I've prepared for all my life. It's that time when Richard Branson lost his virginity. 😬🙃🤭‼️🤓🤫
7:15 p.m.
It's that time Donald Trump got a small loan of a million dollars. Except, in my case, Dr Hans Wijayasuriya will award a (several) million dollar contract if things work out. I'm glad to partner with Sumathi Information Technologies on my first deal and split earnings 50--50. I like to share and keep (financial) things within the family.
This will be the moment in my life, that will go down Sri Lanka's history as a time we changed things around here. My business will make this country go from third world to first. I love my job! Jeez, the police are raiding some people in Boardwalk Empire, I need to see this. I like Nucky Thompson, Steve Buscemi sort of reminds me of me.
8:45 p.m.
I'm going to try go for a walk with my mom. I'm going to call Caramel Pumpkin and ask them to reserve a chocolate croissant for me first. I saw they had a good looking one--it was █████████████████████████████ I like walking. Walking is my exercise.
I think that I might get black balled from Orion Lodge. So, it's best to work with Ferhad Jamshed Nilgiria, the District Grand Master, the boss of the bosses in Sri Lankan Freemasonry under the anyway more influential English Constitution, to join Duke of Connaught Lodge No. 2940.
Even if I've pissed off United Grand Lodge of England, UGLE, I should be able to join and resume progressing as a Freemason using his support because he's the District Grand Master. I think I'm 26 now, I'll be a Worshipful Master by 30. I'll try join the important higher ranking clubs pretty young. I'm very clever.
I pissed off UGLE by demanding they delete certain information from their databases under European Data Protection Act. I don't care. I had to do it. Freemasonry is just a tool I use. I can use it to sneak in anywhere on Earth. ██████████████████████████████████████████ I love Freemasonry.
I believe business is my religion. On the table where we place the sacred volume of sacred law or bible or whatever, I should place the Companies Act No. 7 of 2007 and say I worship Money as my G-d -- the father, the Contract or Deal -- the Son and Capitalism -- the Holy Spirit. Hineni Hineni motherfucker!
Thou shall go to the Father Money G-d, only through the Son -- the Contract or Deal, with the help of the Holy Ghost -- Free Market Economics or the Holy Spirit -- Capitalism. Oh Lord, my G-d, I feel the Power of Capitalism ██████████████████████████████████████, Hallelujah cash money -- blessed is the dollar sign fiat or commodity backed fruit of thy womb, Central Bank!
9:30 p.m.
I'm disappointed that my mum isn't here to take me to Independence Square where I do my 1 km walk once a week. I'm just relaxing anyway today. I noticed my uncle Lal or even Sohli Captain are Freemasons but don't say so because they're afraid hehehe. I'm pretty happy about it though.
I was drinking like 350ml of Coca Cola and I was thinking you know, I bought a 1.5l bottle of Coke for like Rs 300 bucks. It sells for Rs 240 at Arpico. I still pay Pestonjee f***ing Rs 2 or 300 bucks for just 400ml of Coca Cola from McDonald's. Even a few potatoes or 1 kg cost Rs 300, Golden Arch French Fries cost like Rs 300.
I dunno. I shouldn't stress about the small things. I wonder where my mum is? I feel like Freemasonry is just a great tool. ██████████████████████████████████████████████ I need to kick that habit for good eventually. I know I will some day. It doesn't cost me anything, I don't see the harm -- so, I do it.
I'm wondering what it is I'm to do next. If my mum won't pick up, it means that we probably can't run or walk today. I can just do like 10 or even 5 minutes of elliptical machine jogging instead. I'm so tired today. I need to write an email to Indrajith and Jit Warnakulasuriya. I want to use them both.
10:00 p.m.
My mother is too tired to go running after her COYLE committee meeting at somebody's place (I can't remember her name, I'm terrible with names). So, we must go to walk tomorrow. I'm just going to have dinner and call it a night. I'm getting sleepy. I don't trust Jit or Indrajith. One is scared of Thilanga uncle, the other is afraid of Chadu or Jagath mami.
I'm unsure how to go about my deal. I'll use Sumathi Info Tech for sure. ███████████████████████████ I'm so tired. My eyes are getting heavy. I'm going eat, pop my Mirtazapine and go to sleep.
10:45 p.m.
Yuck, there were like so many cockroaches in the pantry. I had some lamb soup. I love it. My grandmother used to make Lamb Meat Soup or Ellu Mas Soup. That██████████████ Milan has taken the two bone marrow bones. ████████████████████████████████████████. I'll just be more quick next time. ███████████████████████████████████████
I'm going to go to sleep soon. Jorge was very nice to apologise and explain he's busy and will work on my Golf Papa project. I'm waiting on Dialog Axiata too. ███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ They're taking time to do business.
I was feeling a bit upset about Freemasonry in Sri Lanka. It's very slow. They're not very intelligent. ██████████████████████████████████ I dunno. It's an ugly old Victoria Masonic Temple building next to Christ Church near Ramada or close to Bavarian as well. It sucks. There are no higher calibre people.
People like Stephen Labrooy, the Dutch Burgher Union President or Sohli Captain, a shareholder of John Keells Holdings, aren't exactly the kind of people I admire. I like Stamford Raffles. I like Benjamin Franklin. I barely like Churchill. But they pale in comparison to non masons like Zuckerberg.
I don't know. I feel underwhelmed and disappointed. These aren't very good people. Jagath uncle is more powerful and wealthier than these people. I'm struggling to see any point in remaining. I like the charity and history, and I want to be brave like Raffles. That's what drives me, but ██████████████████████████████
Even in England, generally all the people, except a few friends, ██████████████████████████████████ That's why nothing great comes out of England anymore. I hated the insufferable s***ty culture of England. It was so annoying. ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ It's all like that.
11:00 p.m.
█████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ ███████████████████████████████████ ███████████████████████████████████████ I dunno. I also like them a bit, especially the ones I like. I got a lot from them. ███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ I don't know.
I talked to Jagath mami, he advised me not to leave Freemasonry just because it's so sad. Besides, I'm looking to move away from United Grand Lodge of England and go into Continental Freemasonry or I don't know, American Freemasonry. Everything American is superior to anything British.
