朋友比情人更死心塌地 I had a sudden revelation on my way home yesterday. About best friends and bossom buddies. A best guy mate is like having a boyfriend 24/7 on call, not omni-present, but always around the corner, a phone call away. Never cheats on you, never feels that you are not putting enough into the relationship. Complains about you, but only to forgive you the very next moment. Cajoles you every time, doesnt matter if you werent feeling down, he just does it. Tells you things that probably isnt very nice to hear, but its the truth anyway. Is still your best guy mate even after you ignore him for a while. A best girl mate is also like having a girlfriend 24/7 on call. Dedicates her time solely to you when you are out together. Always stands on your side. Makes up for the lack of detail you have when getting something for someone else. Provides in-depth analyst on things that you probably are not very keen in knowing, but relieved to find out. They dont ask much in return, they dont care...

Its not exactly the rage now, maybe passé, but still, I thought it would be interesting to have one! haha. Its Formspring, where you can ask me anything, like anything at all! Its totally anonymous, so you can be brave and ask me what you've always wanted to know but didnt dare to ask. haha. Like if I bring reading articles into toilet? Yes I do. Maximise my reading time. I always do it. haha. Like Nat Geog, newspapers, books, magazines etc. Its sort of like a social experiment for myself. Haha. I may or may not answer all, depending on the questions asked. So it'll be fun for me :D

Am I a M.C.P? According to Wiki, Chauvinism, " in its original and primary meaning, is an exaggerated, bellicose patriotism and a belief in national superiority and glory. [ 1 ] By extension it has come to include an extreme and unreasoning partisanship on behalf of any group to which one belongs, especially when the partisanship includes malice and hatred towards rival groups. Jingoism is the British parallel form of this French word. [ 1 ] A contemporary use of the term in English is in the phrase male chauvinism. [ 2 ] Because "chauvinism" is most often heard in this context, it is often mistakenly believed to refer exclusively to " male chauvinism " such as anti-feminism and sexism . It is an eponym of a possibly fictional French soldier Nicolas Chauvin who was credited with many superhuman feats in the late 18th century." If you read it carefully, sentence by sentence, chauvinism is an extreme and unreasoning partisanship on behalf of any gro...

重新发现庾澄庆。 他的歌真的真的好好听，好有“味道”。 我的最爱，百听不厌： 好可惜近几年他都在专著着主词事业，没有唱歌。 Kbox anyone? :D

3 days away from turning 21. Turning 21, or the coming of age. In some societies, like those steeped in traditional cultures and rituals, initiations are held for boys and girls to prepare them into becoming men and women; likewise in modern society such as ours. However, I do not think that turning 21 holds much significance for myself; other than the legal complications that come along with it. I feel that it is not a milestone for myself. Ok, for instance, will I have a achieved a Nobel prize when I turn 21? Made a life-changing decision, for example, adopting a religion at last? Planning for marriage? Inherit a considerable windfall? Completed 10 years of volunteer work? Earned my first car? No. None. So why should I be celebrating it lavishly? Yes, no doubt it makes me happy and thrilled that on this day people whom care about me make me feel special, but somehow, 21 is just another number, bearing legal consequences. Why dont people celebrate 22nd? One year after coming of age, t...

I feel like a quitter :( Mega disappointed with myself. I have never stopped doing anything half way once I tell myself I have to complete it. Only things like eating some super disgustingly vile tasting food puts me off half way. Damn. I dont want to disappoint people so early in the year? Maybe I'm just too concious of how people think of me? What's the difference between disappointing them now and later? I try my best to make myself feel better, like saying things,mentally to myself of course. Trying to make facts shine in my favour. But the truth is I still feel bad. Like really bad. Not that I dont want to persevere on, I just dont think I can do it properly. Am I falling into the "strawberry" category of youths? Major unhappiness. Or maybe I'm just making a mountain out of a molehill? I need to reflect asap. I am going for a run now.
