love is crap

True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen - Francois due de La Rochefoucauld

I found this excerpt from a senior's blog. Rather not give names bcoz I don't want to get into anyone's bad books, especially a senior's. And no, the link is not from my blog. I got it from a friend's blog bcoz I am not close to this senior at all.

I would let it go but I just have to give my two cents worth when I read this on her blog:

"What if the one I found later is not THE ONE? This really scares me. I don't want to be with the one, I want THE ONE! I want to be with THE ONE who loves me and only me and me love him and only him. I don't want to be with someone just because the TIMING is right."

Is it just me or really, everyone is such a fool for love? What is it about this looking for "the one" and all this crap. This is why I don't addict myself to Taiwan and Korean dramas anymore. I used to enjoy them but after a while, the storyline becomes so predictable and corny. I am not condemning anyone who watches them, don't get me wrong. I have a LOT of friends who do. I just don't get it why people still live in fantasyland and believe in all this "the one" crap.

Maybe it's because of the environment I grew up in. You know, having divorced parents and my not-so-good record with guys but the thing is, I believe in the theory that you have to kissed a lot of frogs before you find your prince.

I resent those who hang on to a relationship which is on the verge of breaking. That everyone can see that it is heading towards disaster, except those involved in it. And they stay on. Why? Just because they are afraid of being alone. Do you know most couples break up really because they have found someone better? So even if he/she breaks up with his/her current squeeze, at least they have another to fall to, instead of being alone.

Now I want to ask, "Is it so freakin' bad to be alone? Is it like an embarassing and unspeakable disgrace if you are alone, without a boyfriend/girlfriend? Is it like the worst thing that can ever happened to you?" Please-lah.

I would rather choose to be alone than to keep hanging on in an unhappy relationship.

And really, what does it mean to find "the one"? Honey, sometimes in life, you don't always get what you want. Live with it. Dramas, movies, books, they all trick us vulnerable hormone-raging young adults into believing about "the one" just so they can gain profits and fame.

I am really not trying to be the party-pooper here but I think there should be a change of mindset, especially as we mature into young adults. Why do we play the roles of slave to love? And resent ourselves when we do not find a person to be with?

I admire not the people who found their other halves, but those who survived without finding anyone. It is not easy to go through what they went through and instead of feeling pity for them, maybe we can all learn something from these people.

One of it is indepence. Even if you are in a relationship, stop relying so much on your boyfriend ok? I cannot stand those girls who treat their boyfriends like their sugar daddies. They are your boyfriend, not your father. It should be a give-and-take situation, not one-sided. Stop being so freakin' useless just because you found love.

I realized I sound very irritated here but I just think someone should speak up about how our society of young people are so desperate when it comes to love. And our fear of being alone. Look around you. You are not alone. If you have just broken up or resent yourself for still being single, it is not the end of the world. There is so much more in life than finding "the one".

Please, just grow up already.

My mid-sem break has offically started but instead of having any rest, I have three huge assignments to do...sob sob:(

__________________________

This is an overdued post about my venture into culinary delights (very exaggerating.lol) when I tried the new place called Sweetchat at Times Square. It was the same day that I had a new haircut. Haha;) On 7th september '08.

Anyways, the place is not bad and I would really recommend it since Times Square really lack good places to eat. Not being cynical here, but it's true.

It's kind of like an outdoorsy place, right in the centre of the concourse level

My tropical punch - I only like the colour. Lol. Coz am not a fan of fizzy drinks

My rhapsody rice - actually it's just a fancy name for claypot chicken rice but it is yummy

My peanut tong yuen in almond base - quite expensive for a few tongyuen, like them but don't choose almond, tasted weird

My Mom's salad spicy noodles

Me, right after my haircut - whaddya think?

Mom (with her new haircut too) and her lunch, which tasted really great btw

More shots of the new place

All those yummylicious looking dishes

In a nutshell, I think this place is not bad and is worth checking out. But the prices are kinda steep for such small portion. Especially the dessert. Pretty expensive I think.

******************

Since this is such a short post, decided to put in some random pics of my lovely housemates and our crazy household;)

And finally a concluding pic of the colourful and ultimate dessert - ice-cream!!!

Sorry this post seems kind of random. Still have stuff I want to update but no time. Gotta go do my assignments first. Have been busy these few days...

sometimes i wonder...

You have to watch Oprah's Big Give every Sunday at 8pm on Channel 702...believe me, you will not regret it...it really touches the heart...

______________________________________________

if people don't post pics of their other half, does that mean that they are ashamed of them? because they are not good-looking?
if I know when a guy is flirting because he likes me or because he is just playing around?
why I find some guys just so adorably cute and others don't?
if people would called me a stalker when I visit their friendster profile just for fun?
if my life is already planned out for me?
if I will ever find happiness in another guy, a guy not like my father?
there is more to life than just this?
if people find me weird?
if a person blogs in chinese, does that mean they cannot express themselves in english? and if so, will that affect their future, being english-deficient?
if ever I will get dean's list?
if my roommates resent me?
that if someone did not ask me how my mother is doing in the hospital, does that mean they do not care about me?
if people find me bothersome?
if I should just tell that person directly what I hate about him/her?
if I should just tell him that I have a crush on him?

~so many questions, but no answer~

is life as complicating as I think it is? or am I just making it complicating by thinking too much?

Best thing about tonight's that we’re not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before
I know you don’t think that I am trying......
I know you’re wearing thin down to the core..

But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that i will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear its true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You’re impossible to find

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed
But I have loved you from the start

Oh, But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
It’s impossible

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in
I’m yours to keep
And hold onto your words
‘Cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight
When you’re asleep

Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find

Tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don’t make me change my mind
Or I won’t live to see another day
I swear it’s true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You’re impossible to find

~secondhand serenade~fall for you~

blissful day @ jusco wangsa maju

I don't read the newspapers when I am Setapak but from what I read on Kennysia.com, the Ahmad situation does seem ridiculous. People can be so immature sometimes. And I quote again, "There is no hope for this country."

"You know it doesn't matter where you go, sometimes it is the company that

Wednesday was a rare day when us second-years had no class. Yes, very rare. The only class on that day, Immunology, had been brought forward so finally for once, I don't have to wake up so early. Sorry but I am not a morning person, no matter what time I sleep at night.

As usual, a well-planned day of studying and revision is disrupted when I fell into the temptations of shopping. My roommate, the-not-always-so-busy-one, Suz M finished class at noon so we decided to go to what I believed to be the nearest shopping mall at Setapak, Jusco Wangsa Maju.

Roomie and I both loved to shop, but we are also sadly broke, so have to hit bargain shops and reasonable prices shop lor. Sad hor?

First off, we were famished by the time we reached Jusco so before any shopping could be carried out, lunch is a necessity.

Had lunch at Nando's since Suz M had never tried it before. She says KK doesn't have one. Really? Or is she just a little tad ignorant?

Camwhoring before lunch arrives

My roommate wearing her new Body Glove T-shirt

This spot was reserved but we likey the interior inside so we snucked in and took some pics

Hehe. I likey the mural:)

Our lunch that arrived soon afterwards and the Mango smoothie that we both shared

Suz M is a whiz when it comes to using knife and fork. I should have taken a shot of her plate after eating. It was spotless. Literally.

Lunch candid shot #1

Lunch candid shot #2 - I likey myself better now that my braces are gone

"Not so brave" - she could not eat spicy food so she ordered the "Lemon and Herb" flavour

"Gets you in the mood" - I am not that bad when it comes to spicy food, took the "Hot Peri-peri" flavour

Lunch was great except the fact that it was too much. We should have shared the set and ordered separate drinks coz the smoothie was yummylicious!!!

After that, it was on with the shopping!!! (and cam-whoring around)

Go Green people! Recycle! A miniature KLCC made from recycled items

Mid-Autumm Festival is dawning upon us (tomorrow)

Whoever said that there is nothing much to see in Jusco obviously never shopped with me and Suz M. We entered almost every shop in Jusco, from the supermarket to the swimsuit to card shops and gawd knows how many. It came to a point I thought the soles of my shoes were going to wear out any moment.

Finally, we took a short break to enjoy some shake at McD's. (stupid shake gave me stomachache much later)

Before this, she was known as the "Vacuum", now lemme present the "Blender".

Paparazzi shot. Lolz wtf

Ta-daaaa!!! I had some new piercings, 4 to be exact

LOLZ, no lah, was just having some fun playing with some cute magnetic earrings that we just purchased

I looked like I am going to steal this negligee-lingerie-vintage purse wth. It costs RM129 btw if anyone is interested

I told Suz M that the 3 little pigs reminded me of us - myself, BB and Suz M. I wanna be the cute one in the middle. ROFL

Anyway, remember the piercings camwhoring pics in McD's? It was totally a spur of the moment but Suz M and myself decided to pierced our ears. So random and unexpected but I guessed that was for the best. No over-thinking. No analysing. No hesitations. Just do it.

This is me, shortly after piercing my ears...again. I pierced my ears for the second time. Last time I did it when I was 12. Now I am 21. Lolz...

Closer look at my double-pierced earlobe.

Actually, I have been wanting to do it for a very long time. Just never found the time and guts to do it. I am such a wuss when it comes to pain. But after doing it, I felt so happy, like getting over a fear. It was sort of a revolutionary thing for me, I guess. Looks like I am not as clean-cut as some people thought I was (or not). But I liked to be like that, unpredictable. Not be stereotyped by others.

Before piercing - the very much freaked out Suz M

Here is my accomplice who braved herself to finally pierced her ears for the first time. I am glad I convinced her to do it. At least with two people, it is not such a scary situation.

Her new piercing. Don't let the face fooled you. She was very much in pain even a few hours after piercing. But she is damn happy lor now. Wants to borrow my earrings somemore.

Exhausted, we finally had dinner at Secret Recipe. But since we were still stuffed from lunch, decided to share instead. And also because our wallets was getting dangerously light and empty already.

Yummy yummy hot chocolate. Sweeeettt;)

Just spaghetti but tasted great;p
Dinner with a very fatigue blogger

Dinner candid shot #1

Dinner candid shot #2 - the slutty Suz M

Dinner candid shot #3 - the shot that tak jadi coz the food was missing

Dinner candid shot #4 - another tak jadi shot, no need to explain why, faham-faham lor

Dinner candid shot #5 - like, finally!


And now here are all my blissful (and guilty) buys, oh and plus Suz M's too.


I am such a freakin' shopaholic.


Bling-bling sandals at 50% off

Suz M's silver flats

Suz M's super super comfortable sandals. Macam bantal only the base. Super nicceee lor:)


Musical cute cute bag

Hearts cute cute watch

Roald Dahl, one of my fave authors since young. I actually read this book before, ages ago in my secondary school library but super like it so bought it anyways. Only RM26 mah.

Miscellanous hair accessories and earrings

Still stoked at how much shopping I done that day and also my new piercings! But so sad ok coz of all the money I spend. No more shopping anymore.

I hope.
