The L Word

Can I say something before I type blogging full fledge? Adam Lambert...whether or not he wins American Idol, his career has just been launched. He's one of those contestants who don't need to take the title in order to enjoy future success. Trust me on this. So I don't care if that Danny Gokey is gonna win eventually because he's like the typical classic contestant that the whole of America will embrace and vote for *rolls eyes* (though at one stage I seriously thought making Fantasia win was a huge mistake......and..I am right! Look at Jennifer Hudson!).

Okay! Well, last Friday spent the public hol at a good friend's house because we wanted to hold a simple birthday celebration for her. I did a little photo montage for her although I was not told the set up for it like whether it should be portrait or landscape but just in A4 size. Nevertheless, the birthday girl likes it and that is all that matters. For once I actually spent less than an hour doing the montage coz I had to go to work later so I had to force my creative juices out which fortunately were not fighting for space with the little perfectionist in me.

Actually, this week was a pretty interesting week for me apart from seeing David Arculeta which was definitely THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE WEEK...no offence to Nats in reference to her birthday celebration. I would blog about it later once I finish decluttering part of my room. It's one of those neverending battles much like paying off accumulated bills.

The other highlight was to have a guy saying 'I love you.....a lot' to me which my friend later told me it didn't mean anything but speaks lowly of the guy who says such things with ease...oh, and especially if he has a girlfriend. Believe me, I was not entirely shocked (surprisingly) and I played mind games with myself like maybe he said something else and I heard it wrongly. Maybe he said...'I GIVE you...a lot' or 'I LOAD you...a lot' since he gave me a bunch of chocolate easter eggs which were passed down to him by two of my other colleagues who didn't want them. But I could have sworn he said the L word! I know he treats me like a friend and is not as nasty to me as to another colleague and he has a tendency to be a bit on the sarcastic side.

But honestly speaking, even as a friend I don't deserve being 'Loved' by him because I don't think I am like a friend to him unlike my other colleagues whom he has lunch with together and share jokes (sarcasm) and stuffs. I even suspect that my colleague likes him but then again, she pretty much likes other guys too.

I appreciate his kindness to me lately like helping me pack leftover food like pizza, giving me a ride to the hospital when my father was discharged at last minute, burning me a soft copy of Microsoft office and lending me his container when I did not have one to pack. Oh, and recently he also helped me to attend to the boys in need of first aid when I got stuck serving other walk in people. But at one time he even called me on my phone asking me why I was late when I was stuck at the crazy traffic junction when the new underpass open and the roads have been diverted which I think I had mentioned before. Previously, he only was like '..oooh...you're late' when I came to work like 3 or 5 minutes lates which actually started to get annoying coz nobody actually bothered if I came in around that time. Fortunately, now that I took another route to work, I have always been on time even though I hate that route coz it was like taking a short cut behind a forgotten alley but in broad daylight. But ah..then again, it was his suggestion also to take up that route coz it was faster.

Actually, I am puzzled why he's like so nice to me. He's even worried on a few counts like why I don't have regular lunch food like them and why do I always eat bread for lunch. The only logical conclusion I have is that maybe, I give out the vibe that I am a generally nice person and nice people deserve to be nice back..heh. Well....I am not exactly a genius at figuring things out anyway.

Whatever it is, I can only say that hey, if people are nice to you, let them be. Maybe it is also God's ways of helping me cope with life with a little bit of help from others....just as long as they are sincere about it and not have some ulterior motives behind them. As for the L word, I thank you for it and showing me how you appreciate me as a friend although that is quite a big word to show your appreciation. Rahayu also doesnt mind adding a figure to the number of male friends in her life..which is like...er....well, zero is still a number.

If the appreciation leads to free things or free food, heck...Rahayu LOVES it!

One Step at A Time

Hello there It has been a while, right? I used to treat this blog as a place for me to rant, talk about nonsensical things and interests that, when I think back about it, were pretty cringeworthy. But it was part of the process of me growing up and navigating through my life which is full of ups and downs, just like the tidal waves. I still need a form of outlet to write out my thoughts and I have been journaling for the last few years. At first, I was still writing nonsense, or simply writing about how my day went, but I try to make it a more conscious journalling where I will write about things that I can take lessons from or to reflect on. So how has life been for me? Well, I no longer am running an online shop where I used to do customised cards and then just specializing in box cards. I do want to have an online business, preferably one I don't have to travel to meet people.  If you read my last post about being zen, I think I have 'tripled' the amount of zen inside of...

Listen to Me

It kinda irks me when I am trying to express an opinion or sharing a piece of knowledge but it's met with strong objection or Im being cut half way before I even finished. I mean...come on...does it hurt to actually listen first, doesnt matter if u agree or not? Yes I know everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it's frustrating because I feel like a sore loser. That sort of conversation is actually begging to be turned into some huge argument if I am equally annoying and equally strong headed as well. But I dont want to do that especially if they are my friends. Then again, I am subjected to being called a wimp or somebody who cant stand up strong against what she believes in or her own opinions. That will sorta give the person a sense of pride for getting a landslide victory. At first I used to think that hey, maybe the person has a point and I am wrong. But come to think of it, that's bull! It's one thing not to argue and another thing to let ur own opinions b...

Ray of Light

The act of falling in love. Very subjective and it also depends on the object you desire. Well, if it is the 'whoa mama!' sort of hunk or good looker, then yours truly has fallen in love many times over and over again. But a guy who has stolen my heart for good..well...that has yet to happen. But let's not talk about my non existent love life. Let's just ponder over the act of falling in love. From what I have observed through several tv shows or even movies, I gather that well..not everyone is so lucky to have fallen in love at first sight. It takes time, and maybe it will even take boyfriend after boyfriend or girlfriend after girlfriend before reality smacks your face and you end up with your very first boyfriend (gasp!). What a truly merry go round. Hey, it happens. Because we make mistakes and we are too blind to notice how someone can truly bring you happiness by their sheer volumes of care and concern for you. In the midst of crisis, a ray of light shines through...
