You might watch movies like Kate and Leopold, You've Got Mail, When Harry Met Sally, etc, and think that there is such a thing called true love. the most deluded amongst us even believe in finding The One. The rest of the world barely manages to tolerate them because their illusions serve as a form of entertainment for the rest of us. Yes, im talking to all the girls ranging from ages 12-60and all the boys ranging from ages17-19.
while i am skeptical of true love (that is not blind or selfish), i have a theory on True Love: THERE IS NO SUCH BLOODY THING.
i elaborate... unlike some species of penguins, humans do not have that One person who is destined to be with them forever and ever and blah. we go through our lives, dating many different people. We meet this person whom we think is The One, but really, we're only saying that so we can continue to lead our safe but ignorant lives. My thinking is that there are at least another 500 people out there, who are just as compatible and suitable to your needs, characteristics and lifestyle. Who make us feel the same way, and even possibly give us more orgasms in one night. Yet, we stick our heads in the sand and trick ourselves into thinking this person is The One. The reason why we end up marrying The One, as opposed to the hundrends of potential other ones, is that we marry the most ideal one, based on context.
by context i mean, time, age, place, job, lifestyle, etc. Your overall 'current situation'.
You're 38. you've married your One. At work you meet this hot ass older man who knocks you off your feet. The chemistry between you is of galactic (is tt even a word?) scale. Even more so than what you and your husband shared when you were first dating (we make allowanced for marriage ruining the sex life). so, why isnt this guy The One? Despite the fact that he make you so perfectly and simply, happy, he is not The One. Why? You're married, you have 2 kids, you're 38 and really shouldnt be acting like a teenager in love.
I'm 18. Im dating a guy who i can see marrying in 10 years time (ignoring the fact that if it wasnt because of the fact that my parents hate him and that i would have to convert my religion). He makes me laugh and feel special, and is one of the few people a can truly truly talk to, and i can see us go the distance. Yet, I know that there is just nooooo way I am actually going to marry him.
I meet him 10 years later, he has a stable income, and is ready to settle down. He suddenly pulls a 'candidate shift' to being The One. Assuming we break up tomorrow, how will I ever know if he was in fact The One, if only I met him in a later part of my life?
You think someone isnt ideal for You but isnt just that that someone isnt ideal for your current situation?

GAY IT FORWARD
GAY IT FORWARD
From my fav sitcome right now, Will and Grace, is the term coined by the character Jack Macfarlane. In this epi, Jack and Will meet a newly-out gay (aww) who is mad about will. will isnt too keen but jack convinces him that 'senior gays' like themselves should take new comers under their wing. Because tts what u do in a gay community - you gay it forward.

did you know?
1. did you know eating KFC popcorn chicken relieves a sore throat? i just found that out today when what i thought to be a sin for my sore throat turned out to be the total opposite.
2. did you know the last time my heart beat increased rapidly due to the impending meeting with a guy was in december 2006? is that sad or what? at least that helps differentiate the guys i like from the guy i THINK i like.. but dont really.
3. did you know Robert Redford (who also starred in Indecent Proposal with Demi Moore) was hottie when he was younger (like in the Great Gatsby)? he was like a brad pitt of that era. LOVES!
4. did you know that in the guy with the largest penis in the Guiness Book of Records fainted every time he got a hard on because there was just such a large amount of blood rushing to is penis?
5. did you know that slavery is a norm from which we have only recently deviated from?

Dear Mrs K
Dear Mrs K,
I'm really really sorry and regretful about what happened with Hanafi's mobile phone bill. He emailed me that you were really upset, which made him upset, which basically put me in a grumpy mood, considering i was really happy not too long ago when my economics teacher told me I'll most probably get an A for my 4000 word essay. I feel awful but I really cant say anything thats going to make you or him feel any better. True, it is my fault. I am the one who keeps calling. Your son seems to have the amazing ability to go for weeks without talking to the apparent love of his life.. but I dont!
Yes the cost is getting on everyone's nerves, even me. So I asked myself, do I call him alot? Yes I do, for an overseas arrangement. Why do I call him so many bloody times a week? I have nooooo idea. Seriously, you think you're annoyed but so am I. I mean.. I can't even go for 3 whole days without talking to your frustrating son! I cant think of anyone else because of him! If only God could be so kind as to bring another guy into my life -preferably a Melburnian. I want another guy to focus my energy on... so I can momentarily put him out of my head, that way I won't have to keep calling.
A really selfish part of me goes: aunty, you think you got problems? well so do I. You only have to deal with your son's bills. I have to deal with your son.
argh. to call or not to call? that is the question.
love the teen in love
xoxo Lynn

(hint to certain guys in 4/6 and 4/7 css05). do u noe how much it hurts people? i mean.. we cant help but go.. "ooo topless male body!" and then we have a closer look and it shatters us on the inside! it makes us turn to other races!.. and u guys go off n do all that swearing n shit n dialect n chinese. HELLO? BIG TURN OFF?? sooooo not cool. which chick thinks 'oh yes ah beng! come get me now with that dirrty hokkien slang of yours! oh baby!" ????

update you, update me
First of all, who wants to change my blogskin in return for something? Make it pretty and I will do something for you in exchange =)
Secondly, and a bit randomly, months ago, I dissed Shakira's music vid Hips Don't Lie. I take that back now, and admire her for doing something different.
Thirdly, I have come to notice, or rather it has become more obvious, my negative points. Example, I am very particular about my friends. Also, I'm highly emotional and melodramatic (I hate that!). I mean I cry while praying for God's sake...not because I can feel God's love coursing through my veins but because praying is a very reflective time for me to ponder about life in general and sometimes I get scared by the things I find. I think too much about mundane things and dismiss the more important things. I always think people have an underlying intention in their actions and words and read too much into them (and then react dramatically to it).
And so, my new year's Attempt at Change (resolution is too strong a word I cant commit to) is to work on those things I mentioned above. I will try not to let my throat get all choked up with emotion when I notice my dad's age spots and sagging skin and reminisce about a time, not too long ago, when he had firm abs and people thought he was on steroids, saying 'wah! Uncle! You fit ah!', I will try not to let what people say and do affect me too much and take a chill pill. I will be less particular about the people I mix with, and try to be less judgemental and prevent thoughts like 'oh my god, what was he thinking when he got dressed today' jump to mind the first thing I meet them.
On a happier note, how can I forget the hot topic on everyone's lips?! Chinese New Year!!!! I have noticed a few things over this CNY that Id like to comment on. Things like when people wish each other "happy new year". This has evolved literally, into a greeting. Old colleagues meet, 'eh!! Long time no see ah! Happy new year happy new year!", somewhat like a chant really. Out of all the "happy new years" that had spilled out of my mouth over the weekend, I am very sad to say, I didn’t mean any. Not even to my parents. Not once, while I wished anybody to have a happy new year did I actually mean: I hope you have a happy new year. I hope this year you will start new and wonderful things and it may it be year filled with happiness. I highly suspect many will find themselves stuck in the same rut. Maybe a long, long time ago, when CNY was created by some bozos, the people really were kind-hearted, sincere and helpful. Not spiteful, greedy and superficial like we all are right now. So, sticking to my new year's Attempt at Change, I will not dwell on the deterioration of Man's morals, and get emotional, but sincerely wish my family and loved ones a wonderful and memorable year ahead and to find whatever you may be looking for. and maybe u will really mean what u wish people next CNy. And will someone please change my blogksin for me?

allow a few minutes of silence for his lost..
so, i didnt get much sleep last night so i was already awake way before i had to get ready for school. since i was early i decided to get started. i tossed the ring into the bin, opened the carton boxes where i kept the stuffed toys and threw tt into the bin too, found the dogtags, detatched the one my sis gave me n threw the rest of it in the bin, took out old photos, tore them down the center, i plan to make a little mosaic so those interested can come ask me for pictures of my artwork!.. i didnt throw some away cos i look so gorgeous in them and i wanna keep them so when i hire a hitman, he'd get the right person. havent burnt the other pics yet but will get round to it. also deleted all emails/fwded mails etcetc..i was trying to throw out anything tt reminds me of anything.. i was wondering how i could fit myself into the bin...
you may send ur condolensces to me, but u cant say 'i told u so', which would make me feel more The Fool. u may say: omg! i totally didnt see that coming.. to back me feel better..lol..

so you think you can dance?
ok. i went for jazz class tonight and we were working on this short dance, a continuation from last week. so anyway, you know how i said we were doing Beauty and the Beast for the ballet at the end f othe year, apparently, as i just found out, there is a performance for jazz/tap/funk too.
so there we were...going over the dance again and again, and Ms Amanda said "pretend this is an audition, gimme what you got". and i was looking around.. wondering if anyone else got that huge hint, which was obvious cos the teachers are choreographing for the concert now and last week she mentioned she might use this dance for the concert.
so after that, i went ALL OUT ... seriously, i was so close to making my own sound effects. i took it 3 levels higher. then Ms amanda asked 4 of us to demonstrate in to the class of 11 or 12... *coughcough* i was one of them. so i was thinking...my efforts paid off. then later, after class ended, she came to the 4 of us and told us she needed us to come down for rehearsals on sunday. YES!!!THANK YOU GOD!!!!!!!!
so yes, you may come and congratulate me =)

please call me!!!!!!! im so very free on monday night!!!! i dont mind going for class everyday!!!

a lil hope for average lookin guys
witty, articulate, humourous, intersting average looking guys have a a better chance of finding a chick than a dull, inarticulate, witless hot guy. i know this from a fact because am i CURRENTLY have a conversation with a fairly good looking guy. i feel as though i am explaining the intricacies of life to an 8 yr old. i wonder whether he had abnormal brain development as a child. my attention span lasts 5 secs. he asks about my dream job, and just when i think we're staring the 'getting to know u' bit, he says the weirdest things.
he says:how r u gonna b a lawyer???like set up ur own company?
i say:em.. not really..work in a corporate firm..
he says:oh...cool wud they juz accept people?
i say:u mean the firm?
he says:yer
i say:um.. u have to apply..then theyd look at ur qualifications n experience
he says:but u got no exp rite?
i say:ya..
he says:they wud put u up with minor cases when u starting i suppose
i say:yeah.n maybe after a change jobs a few times, with more experience, i can get my ideal job
he says:
maybee when u make a name for urself then u'll start rolling in LoL
he says:
u gettin straight As???
i say:huh?
he says:resultsresults results!!!
isay :um..yeah..wat has tt gotta do with my experience n my dream job?
he says:do they want a good result or just to pass in those subjects??
i say:im sure they would want gd results too.. but its not entirely based on results..
he says:melbourne courses arent based on results? like entirely???
i say:nono! i thot u meant the job!
he says:omg lol so...lets restart!in Melbourne Uni...do they need good results to get into the courses u want???
i say:yes of cos!...its a uni!
it seems as tho im the slow one here, but im sure u can testify.
and the communication breakdown continues.... more like the communication lapse.. on his part.

all the things we hide from
AGEING, LOVE & MARRIAGE
i write this in response to Shing's (sorry but i just cant bring myself to call you ally) entry in which she exposes the intricacies of love & marriage.
first of all, i do not understand why some women think that once they get married, it is acceptible that they 'let go'. ladies, im sure you know what i mean, but for the benefit of guys, 'letting go' includes, no longer bothering to shave, apply make up, smell good, keep in good shape, et cetera et cetera (btw, my chinese teacher says et ceterika). basically to not upkeep your image and in general, look good.
take a look at example A:
lady A married 2 years ago and recently gave birth to a healthy baby. she and her husband are thrilled. amidst all the hustle and bustle of first-time motherhood, lady A has failed to regain her prenatal figure after a year. (gasps!) her sex drive has also toned down, most likely due to nursing and caring for her child. as the months pass, she gets sucked into the vicious cycle of motherhood and has traded her manolo blahnik stilettos for Bata walking shoes. her perfume, for powder; her leather minis for beige pencil skirts, and oh! only washes her hair on alternate days now, and shaves for special occasions.
the funny thing is, lady A can turn around, aghast, and say: "OHMY LORD, I THINK LARRY'S CHEATING ON ME!" damn straight he is.
ladies, if anything, learn from Gabrielle Solis. Samantha Jones if you're unmarried.
and think of this, if Carlos can cheat on Gabby with some drab cheena, WHAT CHANCE DO WE MERE MORTALS HAVE?
and that old adage that a way to a man's heart is through is stomach? whoever invented that needs to seriously reconsider the male species.
my mother tells me: you better learn to cook cos ur husband will want that". and i go "puhlease, in this day and age? i dun think it really matters anymore'. she goes "hah! that's what you THINK!wait till u find a husband!". now, considering the first time i skinned an apple was when i was 15, and that by the time i was done the apple had turned yellow, i totally disagree.
HELLO!? when your husband cheats on you, you dont go "come! i cook char kuay teow! you dont go to geylang anymore k?. and u dont use that as a strategy to keep him home!!
what do you do? YOU SPICE UP THE SEX LIFE! sheesh.
on ageing: i already hate growing old. and the fact that i dont want to admit im turning a grave 17 by xmas also proves im ageing prematurely. i should, by rights, by jumping for joy. or at least looking forward to my bday. i dread the horrors of marriage and motherhood.
on ageing in marriage: yes, as much as i encourage all women to be more like Gabrielle, we all, one day- including the very ms Longoria- will age. and there will come a day when we have to stand upside down for our boobs to look good. but the key phrase here is to age gracefully. and im not saying that even when we're 40 we should try squeezing ourselfs into a mini, but keeping up appearances includes dressing your age.
and of course, you cant always 24/7 be in a sexy thong at home. and chances are, ur husband will get bored of you overdoing the make up and sex-turned-slut appeal. there definately is a something about seeing your wife in scruby pj's, makeupless , hair in wild disarray.
...man.. i have a future in marriage counselling.
point is: you cant get married and then naturally expect and assume your husband is gonna stay faithful. you cant do everything wrong and say 'but you made a vow to me' . you have to take an active role in making ur marriage work -which hardly ever happens.
and for GODS SAKE! i fucking cant stand Unfaithful by Rihanna.
i write this in response to Shing's (sorry but i just cant bring myself to call you ally) entry in which she exposes the intricacies of love & marriage.
first of all, i do not understand why some women think that once they get married, it is acceptible that they 'let go'. ladies, im sure you know what i mean, but for the benefit of guys, 'letting go' includes, no longer bothering to shave, apply make up, smell good, keep in good shape, et cetera et cetera (btw, my chinese teacher says et ceterika). basically to not upkeep your image and in general, look good.
take a look at example A:
lady A married 2 years ago and recently gave birth to a healthy baby. she and her husband are thrilled. amidst all the hustle and bustle of first-time motherhood, lady A has failed to regain her prenatal figure after a year. (gasps!) her sex drive has also toned down, most likely due to nursing and caring for her child. as the months pass, she gets sucked into the vicious cycle of motherhood and has traded her manolo blahnik stilettos for Bata walking shoes. her perfume, for powder; her leather minis for beige pencil skirts, and oh! only washes her hair on alternate days now, and shaves for special occasions.
the funny thing is, lady A can turn around, aghast, and say: "OHMY LORD, I THINK LARRY'S CHEATING ON ME!" damn straight he is.
ladies, if anything, learn from Gabrielle Solis. Samantha Jones if you're unmarried.
and think of this, if Carlos can cheat on Gabby with some drab cheena, WHAT CHANCE DO WE MERE MORTALS HAVE?
and that old adage that a way to a man's heart is through is stomach? whoever invented that needs to seriously reconsider the male species.
my mother tells me: you better learn to cook cos ur husband will want that". and i go "puhlease, in this day and age? i dun think it really matters anymore'. she goes "hah! that's what you THINK!wait till u find a husband!". now, considering the first time i skinned an apple was when i was 15, and that by the time i was done the apple had turned yellow, i totally disagree.
HELLO!? when your husband cheats on you, you dont go "come! i cook char kuay teow! you dont go to geylang anymore k?. and u dont use that as a strategy to keep him home!!
what do you do? YOU SPICE UP THE SEX LIFE! sheesh.
on ageing: i already hate growing old. and the fact that i dont want to admit im turning a grave 17 by xmas also proves im ageing prematurely. i should, by rights, by jumping for joy. or at least looking forward to my bday. i dread the horrors of marriage and motherhood.
on ageing in marriage: yes, as much as i encourage all women to be more like Gabrielle, we all, one day- including the very ms Longoria- will age. and there will come a day when we have to stand upside down for our boobs to look good. but the key phrase here is to age gracefully. and im not saying that even when we're 40 we should try squeezing ourselfs into a mini, but keeping up appearances includes dressing your age.
and of course, you cant always 24/7 be in a sexy thong at home. and chances are, ur husband will get bored of you overdoing the make up and sex-turned-slut appeal. there definately is a something about seeing your wife in scruby pj's, makeupless , hair in wild disarray.

i was bitching with jo, and our hot topic for the day was our arch enemy *****. im too chicken to name. bitching abt ***** was not enough so we started attacking *****'s friend as well. and the friend, name mandy, claims she's a dancer... like... on her blog n friendster. like me basically.
the only diff is...
i actually do dance. now im not sure the extent of her dancing, but this really got me thinking. for all those girls who go clubbing and dance on the dance floor, and dance in front of the mirror at home with the radio -even if u dance well- ur not entitled to call urself a 'dancer'...
i dont exactly noe the criteria in order for one to call themselves a dancer.. but please, dont insult the art/sport by calling yourself a dancer when all you do is copy pussycat's 'buttons' vid. eg just hiphop or just ballet) doesnt qualify u as a 'dancer'. ur a 'dancer' when u can pull off every dance type. (thats me) however, u are allowed to say eg "yes i dance ballet/ i dance hiphop"
as i said i dunno the exact criteria for calling yourself a 'dancer', but i i think dancing ballet consistently for a decade, n takin 5classes a week and being able to pull of any dance type with the exception of capoera and breakdance qualifies me.
its just because with all the hype about dancing like STEP UP and Take the lead.. and all those celebrity dance comps.. everyone wants to claim they're a dancer. ur not! people like me have been working their asses off their entire lives to call themselves dancers and they dont do it just for the title.. u cant just take up ballroom classes one day say ur a dancer! n i noe u just want the 'feel good' of telling ppl "yeah.. im a dancer" cos i do that too, but unlike you, its true.
thats leaves mandy outta my criteria
