Being the middle child...
... is not any better than being the 1st or 3rd.

As a child, you wear hand over clothes. When you are a grown up, your elder or youngest siblings always get what they want, what they wish for.. but nobody really care about you, besides yourself. Everyone in the family is always showering their other childs and you are always the last on their mind. Be it business, money, car, food... you need to use you bare hands to own it.

Let's talk business. Wanting to quit my job, but look here.. that's what mum say.. your brother is coming out from army soon.. so he needs a job more than you. Its like i can't even work in the family business. I have to continue working outside.

Fine. I got a business which i wanna set up. Knowing my family doesn't have spare cash for me. I will get my own capital or business partners. But when my brother say... i want to own a business. The thing that they thought is how to get the capital for him. I was stupid enough not to open my mouth to ask. And here.. what my mum say... you are a girl, you study so much, you should just stay, work and be an employee. What a thinking?! at this era? Just because i'm a girl, no.. lady means i can't be my own boss? I have to be under the nose of others?

Car... i don't understand why when it comes to you being involved in an accident, they will say.. i buy you a car. don't ride. but after the accident, you asked for a car.. and they said 'take bus'. So why is ita 18 year old boy who just passed his licence got a car? Why is it when my sister got out from poly got a car?

Why is it when its even furniture, tv.. i need to use 2nd hand while my siblings get the best or the newer one?

life seems so unfair. but being the middle child, i learnt of independence. although i kept quiet as i don't wish to see unhappiness, but this doesn't mean i don't care or i have no feelings.

Strangers from the past, present & future
Almost everyday I will see you, see your blond hair, see you with other people. I do admit that i could not forget but thinking back of you showing concern for someone more than me, buying bags, passing your credit card to her, cleaning & tidying her tables, going on holiday. The actions to me were all one side Love. I feel sad because you are involved with someone that you shouldn't be with in the first place, breaking up people's family, happiness or not I don't know, but it kinda disgust me.

Although we work in the same premises, walk past each other, we are transparent. No smile, no hi, no bye... All we are... strangers.

Unsure
saw that you got a ring, and don't know why you got it? And then you didn't wear it, was it even yours in the first place? And it was at your 4th finger. not forgetting you didn't wear the watch i got for you. you have forgotten about everything.

enjoy what you are having now.

goodbye.

priorities changed in life
if you happen to read this, this post is for you.

i was thinking back the past, running through it. i realised that its not difficult that people tell we broke up. i asked my friends, why would they know?

because...

1) you used to comment back in fb or join me for our outings
2) you been hanging out with your friends as much as you were with me

friends, when i meant not really friends but colleagues. that people think its way too close. hanging out wherever there is a chance together.

and if you remember, what i meant by i was disappointed over one thing. and this one thing is still clear in my mind. remember, we watch this movie, "letters to juliet" at cathay, rem what you told me? i pass you the money, go home after the movie. i go look for xxx. on the whole journey home, i asked myself if that xxx is so much more important than me? if she is just your friend, and if i am your girlfriend? it seems like otherwise. that you have cross the line to become more than what you should treat your girlfriend n friend. that's when i realise i was not in the 1st place anymore, that i was in somewhere below. and that's when i felt that things really changed, and i couldn't accept anything like this.

but well, breaking up really makes you happier now, and me too. i won't dwell on the past, although there are times i think of the memories we had together. i will move on, and as you're moving on, i wish us all the best in whatever we seek. take care.

Dear friends
I was reading the letters, cards from the past. These letters are more than 10 years old. Was touched, amused, surprised by the content. that was very very funny. And i think that writing letters should still be practiced, because it's a memory that we would always remember, and is much more personalised than writing on the internet.

i will always remember and cherish what was written, because it marked a difference in our past.

Yesterday class gathering, for a group of people whom have never met each other ever since we graduated from SJC. With friendships as old as 12 years, or even from primary 1. we may not be as close as what we used to be, but i will always remember you although i didn't express out, it doesn't meant that you are forgotten.

THANK YOU friends of mine for bringing me those valuable memories of my past.

loves today
today is just thursday, but finally i could lay my hands on my favourite books. i'm only at chapeter 3 of the Vampire Diaries The return: Vol 1. Nevertheless, I am very confident that i will finish this book by 2nd week of July.

I always wanted to read a book by the beach, suntanning. Ok, is my imagination but it seems so cool. Or maybe travel the world with my storybook. ha, another imagination of mine. But if my bag space isn't a concern, i will bring it around.

i got myself a hair dryer, philips brand. Hmm.. i like the color, it isn't expensive as compared to Braun. It has this big comb kind of thing to attach to the hair dryer. but its for wavy, curl hair. Too bad, i do not have curls anymore and my hair is short. But this is way much better than my sister's Iona.


Oh, i manage to strike out alot of items in my to-do list this week! Woohoo..

I need my pay, i need my dear to buy me gifts. Shopping, honey?!

I wish myself the best of luck. RWS on wednesday? LOL. ;)
