If you have no difficulty starting a topic, no problem speaking your lingo, not afraid to be yourself, then it should be due to familiarity.

Somehow, familiarity breeds comfort.

wlove!

"Friendship is like pee. Everyone can see it but only you can feel the warmth."

So cheesy, but i like. I''ll pen down more thoughts when i can find pockets of time to do so.

wlove, eme

When i woke up today, i felt a bit like Little Miss Happy. Happy because i know that when i wake up on the same day next week, things should be pretty much exciting. I'm more than willing to leave all the workloads and stress in Singapore and then live in self denial for the next one week. I will keep myself disillusioned and be convinced that life is beautiful. -grins- Traveling is my one true love even though i don't have the opportunity to do it often. It will always be in my date-to-date to do list no matter how many time i travel abroad. I agree that it's an expensive to-do-item and the irony of this love is that i'm not rich enough to do so. hur hur. I hope one day God will bless me with the capital to go annyeonghaeseyo! :D

Anyway, Singapore turns out to be a pretty nice place when you have got a license and a car and when you are about 18 years and above. Or when you hang out with grown ups who've gone to much more restaurants to patronize than you do. It rained the last time when i explored Botanical Gardens. So i ended by in a shelter with my friends most of the time and totally missed the beauty of the garden. This time round, it didn't rained! And the feeling is just so great when you eat by the greeny grass patches with swans to see and squirrels running around. Its sooo... snow-white. Haha.

(Yes yes yes, i cut bangs (again) but i think i love it so much that i can't live with any other fringe. Bangs for life!!! wahahaha!!!)

For the start, i would like to clarify that this is not some kind of emo post where i will just rattle about "Someday my prince will come".

I always wonder if living happily ever after is possible, or perhaps, is it even an available option. More often than not, i feel tired and disappointed when i just think about how r/s tends to bring more heartache than joy. Lies and betrayal hurts, and they are part of love, which is why you love someone despite of who they are, not so much because of who they are. If you're into a r/s then you just gotta expect some traumatic experience to come upon you. Of cos, on the flip side, there are all the highs about a r/s as well.

i've come to learn that we need to take this two pronged approach towards this mega word - love. A r/s takes passion AND commitment. Meaning, you should have some passion towards this special someone when you're in it, but let's face it, you're NOT gg to be FOREVER passionate about it. So during times when your passion runs low, that's when buddy commitment kicks in and continue to hold your r/s to some stability point until you feel passionate about that person again. I seriously hope more people out there can see r/s as commitment and not just passion alone. And precisely because i (really) dont feel that people are committed nowadays, i tend to take a step back from such things. Its not exactly my fault. I just don't see eye to eye as to how the world runs today. I dont want to come to a point where i feel myself craving for intense attention and start shaking in a corner when i dont receive it. (By the way, this attention craving symptom is so official that there's a term for it called emotional dependency. Its so proven that you need to see a psychology to get a cure for it.)

A friend of mine that i talk to often but ain't really close came to confront me in a very subtle and caring manner recently. He says he feels that something is wrong with my thinking and that its not healthy. Its probably why God holds back from me as much as I hold back from Him. I agree, but i told my friend that its gonna take some time to change.

I don't think anyone would disagree with me if i say love is complicated. It's too complex beyond words that you find this option that says "It's complicated" when you're selecting your facebook status. Its an option now. Everyone in the world would probably agree that love is not as simple as a boy meeting a girl.

I'm tired. Good night.

wlove, eme

Everyone's back but everyone's falling sick! Scram, flu bugs!

But im thankful that im not alone in this growing up season.

Back to camp. Just when Stef and myself were near to losing our sanity, Stacia the hero saves the day! WAHAHAHA! Running around Hougang like a headless chicken was no joke. Especially when you had to put your hands in a container filled with slimy worms which totally gross me out. But still, i was proud of my group! I think they have become less gu-niang after the camp. A bit more garang. A BIT only.


LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.


I hope i have enough strength to last till the end of the week. When i came office this morning, Hitomi is on MC, WH felt feverish, Ruth's giving birth soon. After lunch, WH left and i took over. I'm all alone now. May God bless Hitomi and WH with speedy recovery! And i'm so excited for Chara (the cutie pie in Ruth's stomach) to join us! Seems like giving birth is a beautiful thing ;) oh well, it is! The babies in my midst brings me joy! :D


wlove, EME

wlove!

Instead of going for lunch, here I am surfing the net aimlessly. But it wasn't the lamest thing to do cos here's what I found and i thought i really needed it. Some rules that i think i need to obey.

1. Don’t overthink. Too much thinking often results in getting stuck, in going in circles. Some thinking is good — it’s good to have a clear picture of where you’re going or why you’re doing this — but don’t get stuck thinking. Just do.

2. Just start. All the planning in the world will get you nowhere. You need to take that first step, no matter how small or how shaky. My rule for motivating myself to run is: Just lace up your shoes and get out the door. The rest takes care of itself.

3. Forget perfection. Perfectionism is the enemy of action. Kill it, immediately. You can’t let perfect stop you from doing. You can turn a bad draft into a good one, but you can’t turn no draft into a good draft. So get going.

4. Don’t mistake motion for action. A common mistake. A fury of activity doesn’t mean you’re doing anything. When you find yourself moving too quickly, doing too many things at once, this is a good reminder to stop. Slow down. Focus.

5. Focus on the important actions. Clear the distractions. Pick the one most important thing you must do today, and focus on that. Exclusively. When you’re done with that, repeat the process.

wlove!
