Back to waiting. It has been a lil too long. Tiring me out.
Not a happy camper.

This is a story about love. This is a story of boy meets girl, boy falls in love, but girl doesn’t. This is a story where boy believes in love and girl believes nothing of love and that it is just a fantasy. This is a story of boy and girl getting together, doing things that couples do only to have the girl refusing to put a label on them. This is a story of girl getting married, not to this boy, but to another boy that she fell in love with. This is a story of girl who once do not believe in love, finds love. This is a story of boy keeping his faith and his little belief in love, and move on.
This is not a love story. This is a story about love.
And this fictional story resurfaces certain things that happened in reality. For me that is.
Love the movie. Love the soundtrack.
Why do most humans only learn the lesson of appreciation through losing? Coz most humans are stupid.
I’ve spoken to a lot of people and they believe that to make someone appreciate the things you have done, you have to take it away from them. So, if you love a person a lot (like really a lot), you have to pretend to love that person less so that he or she will know that in actual fact, you are loving that person a whole lot. Make sense?
*blank*
Not to me. Talk about humans being complicated.
Most humans believe they have all the time in the world to waste on doing crazy stuff like I-shall-not-show-you-how-I-feel-so-you-will-know-how-I-truly-feel. It’s sad that most humans only react to negativity and not when things are positive. When it is about betrayal, cheating, ugly competitions, you can count on most humans to fight back and make their stand. But what happens when it is about a true love, family love? Most humans take it for granted. Appreciation is not there when the good things are right in front of them. And then these humans have to complain when good things don’t happen.
*silent argh*
I don’t understand. I don’t think I will ever learn to understand. Then again, maybe I don’t have to understand. I just need to make sure I’m not like most humans. For now, I know I’m not. If I love someone, I will show that someone how much I love him. If I am thankful for certain things that happened, I will show gratitude to that person who has helped. I just don’t want to regret not doing enough or saying enough when I had my chance.
When your life is filled with what ifs, that’s when you know you could have done so much more to make it better.
*shrug*
Oh well.
*sigh*
Monday hasn’t been good. Next week will bound to be worse. And before the end of this CNY, I doubt there will be any changes. For now, I’m feeling like this…
Today marks the 6th day of the Chinese New Year and the celebration has been pretty awesome so far.
It has always been a tradition in our family to play mahjong during CNY. Mahjong sessions are usually crazy enough. With the addition of Pictionary and Taboo this year — the laughter is ROARING off the roof! One of the main contributor to all the laughters for all the 3 games has got to be my beloved dad. Downright hilarious this Mr Seow. Not forgetting all the other members of the Seow clan; mum, sisters, aunties, uncles and cousins.
But the KL CNY session has got to end with me being down with diarrhea. Must have been all the food. It was bad. Really bad (though I must admit that in spite of the running-to-the-toilet activities, I still wanted to go to Jalan 222 for their nasi lemak and otak-otak – but didn’t go, of coz).
In less than 7 hours, we will be driving back to Penang for the 2nd part of the CNY celebration. Hopefully it’ll continue to be as awesome as it has been in KL. Although I know some parts will still remain stationary (which is not exactly something I’m hoping for) but perhaps a game or two of Pictionary may just make things better.
Hope the start of this Tiger year has been ROARING for you!
A friend once told me of an article she read some time back about time management. In this article, it is said that a person who is always late is usually arrogant. Why is that so? People who are late could not be bothered about those who are waiting for them. They simple believe that only their time is precious and other people just have too much time to waste. Little did they know that the time that have been wasted on waiting could have been put to better use. The worst of the late-clan would have to be those who are 45 minutes late and still do not have the courtesy to apologize. That, to me is not only an act of arrogance but also an act of pure rudeness.
I recently heard a pretty lame excuse as to why this group of people are late for an hour — “Aiya, Malaysian time mar“. As far as I’m concern, the Malaysian time is set at +8 GMT. So, I don’t think there is a difference between my time and their time since we are all living in the same +8 GMT time zone. Lame. Whoever first started this whole “Malaysian time” thing is clearly trying to cover his or her late ass to some appointment.
*sigh*
Seriously, you don’t get respected for being late. People might just think that you are downright arrogant. Using habits as an excuse for being late — sorry, I don’t buy that. And the whole deal with the “Malaysian time” — so not cool. It is such a shameful thing if all Malaysians are labeled as people who will be late for any function. How is it possible for one to achieve anything in life if they can’t even be punctual?
Sometimes, opportunity only come by that split second. Miss that and you’ll probably miss the best thing that could happen in your life. So, can we all try to be a little more punctual?
A rare occasion it is to have the first day of the lunar new year falling on valentine’s day. It has got to be good then.
Have a great double celebration with your loved ones, family and friends. May the year of the tiger brings nothing but happiness, love, health, prosperity and wealth, success — generally all the good stuff. Be safe, be good and have an awesome time.
The level of PDA (or better known as Public Display of Affection) as defined by each couple is different. Some goes as much as holding hands while some gives others the impression that they just have to get down and do it there and then. *roll eyes — get a room people*.
The thing is, is there a need for extreme level of PDA to be shown in public? Yea we know you’re a couple and yea we know you’re madly in love with each other. But do you really have to show it — physically? Shouldn’t the things that happen in the room stays in the room? The worst I’ve seen was a couple literally making out on the grass in a park in Shanghai. I was so tempted to go up to them, asking them to get a room. I mean, seriously!!
Yes, perhaps to me that seemed really extreme. To the person standing next to me, perhaps it is just normal. But still.
I agree that little things like holding hands with your loved one (not every millisecond of your life though) or a quick peck on the cheek/forehead or having him drape his arms around you once in a while when you’re shopping or dating gives you that warm, loved feeling. Makes you feel like you’re being acknowledged. But anything beyond that would probably be a little too much of a PDA.
Well, maybe it’s just me. Maybe having a little tongue activity is not so much of a PDA after all. *roll eyes*
Have you ever looked into a person’s eyes and still falls madly in love with that person even though it has been years? Have you ever been able to see a person as that one person where you know for sure that you can and want to love for at least the next 50 years or more?
It is not a fantasy nor is it a fairytale when in search of such love. I may appear to be impractical to some people sometimes when defining the meaning of love but I see it as a difference of opinion. Without realizing it, those who are happy in that little marriage of theirs are indeed living in that fairytale-like story. 
And I’ve never said that life is always beautiful. The downside of life is just a twist of drama to add a little bit of spice into our lives. Can be tasteful sometimes.
Valentine’s Day is just around the corner. It may just yet be another day for restaurants, florists and gift shops to earn some big bucks, but it is Valentine’s Day (and the first day of Chinese New Year). And I’m sure it’s put on our calendar for a reason.
Nite.
