what number?

the scenario:

jie at a bus stop. noticed a blind old uncle.
whenever a bus stopped, the uncle will shout at the driver ‘what bus number?’

jie noticed it and wondered ‘how come nobody at the bus stop help the uncle?! what wrong with these pple?”

another bus approach.
jie goes ‘erm, the bus is 93’
uncle replied ‘oh, 93. my bus. where’s the bus?’

uncle walked towards the bus.

mm.. how come? if i were jie, i will have approach the uncle too and ask ‘uncle, what bus are you waiting for? i’ll tell you when its here’
even if my bus is here, i will instruct the person beside me to take care of uncle. but chances are, i will wait with uncle. its a responsibilities. yes, even if i am late for my appt, i will choose to wait with uncle.

what’s wrong with these pple? how could you just ignore someone in need of help? i cant. i find it hard to turn my back. i sorta admired ppl who can. how do you do that? be so cold abt it. it beyond me. G.

eh. i loved this sentence – although the law say tat no one is responsible for anyone else, helping someone who needs it is the right thing to do.

white lies

liar, liar, pants on fire.

BUT, lies are unavoidable.
we are all liars, each and every one of us, including me. of coz lah, what? u think i’m a saint?!
there’s a difference between bein nice and saint. fyi – i am nice but not a saint.
of coz a differences bet white lies and a lie.

white lies – its common, but doesnt mean its acceptable.

i dont mind being the liar but i dont wanna be the one who being lie at. nobody wants to !
but i understand the logic behind white lies = to avoid hurting someone, to avoid the truth, to spare someone the agony. ..whatever the reason  – dont get caught ! haha !

for me, i try to be as honest as i can but white lies are necessity, just like omission of info are necessity as well. fyi – ommission of info donest constitute to lies. hehe.

-i am allowed to open the wardrobe – pick the towel i liked, shorts and tee and pop myself into the shower.
-i am gettin my own toothbrush (soon) and there’s a bed named after me.
-i have been at my second home for the past 3 weekend.
– i am allowed to tuck myself in while the owner shower.
– i am allowed to use the owner’s laptop.

stop, think, act

okie, this is from my book – secrets she left behind.
‘stop, think, act’ is the advise from a mother to her son.

three basic words.

but are they really basic when you link them together?
how often does we do that – stop, think, act.

two things that control me (let tok abt me, since its my blog)
heart – how you feel, we’re talkin abt emotions.
head – when you remove all emotions and look at the big picture, talkin abt logical, common sense.

which one am i? it depends on situation.
i can be cold when i dish out advises to others, without considerin how others ppl felt.
i can be mean when it necessary.
i can even be lame in my response when i dont feel like answerin your qn. 🙂

but i cant say i cut myself out completely from feeling.
i’m loaded with empathy.
i am soft-hearted.
i can even be fairy godmother ! haha !

how /when does one draw the line?
of coz, man are better at drawin line den woman.
do i wanna be a man and be so practical abt things / issues that i lost my sense of empathy.

how terrible it will be when one ignore feelin and live life as it is, just to avoid being hurt / disappointment.
shldnt one take chances in life, afterall you only live once?

do you need a conclusion? sure, im good at it !

*drum roll

conclusion:
i found myself leaning towards  ‘stop, think, act’ instead of following my feelings blindly. perhaps it a sign of maturity, a sign of being responsible for my own action. i have no idea.

let me sum it up – stop, think and act with your heart in it.
safe bet.

tears

i’m gotta break this into several parts:

Part 1: crybaby
kor called me that smts.

i cry when i’m in pain, i cry when i’m upset, i cry when i’m frustrated. haha !

Part 2: refuse to cry
i can tell u too when i dont cry.

and this kind of refusal to cry is heartbreaking to others –
when i am sad, when i know that crying doesnt helps.

i dislike crying, when i know it gotta make me look weak or to gain sympathy. oh pls, i take gamemanship anyday, just dont give me the ‘dear-are-you-okie-look’ it tiring for me to assured you i am fine.

Part 3: cry when you’re touched.
you know recently i read this ‘ tentative contact. believed not in divine salvation but in the proposition tat we poor mortals are fully capable of savin ourselves, if conditions and inclinations are right, and the evidence of this potential is found in the smallest of gestures’

i agreed. sometimes it d smallest of gestures that touched me. just like the simple coffee + biscuit my dad made for me at 6.30am.

part 4: summary
tears are a form of expressing your emotion. just like laughter.
but there’s where the similarities end.
tears go deeper, something that you cried abt, sad or happiness – i think are things that you remember for a long time. whatever it is, the person or occasion matters to generate tears, probably the reason why i dislike when others cry for me.

do i remember my last tears?
no.
coz i dont believe in keeping negative memories.
take what’s good with you, look back in laughter and not in pain.

part 4(A): revised summary
laughter is equally impt. stupid things that you did, silly mistakes, dumbo error, whether it laughin at a joke, at yourself, it pulls you closer to the other party.

do i remember my last laugh?
yes.
just. over a bag of cheezels with jie / kor
teasing each other, stupid jokes, laughed abt life.

the next crazy thing we did was slp at 4am woke up at 1pm. she woke up at 3pm. haha !
the last crazy thing we did was decided to go tioman in jan. i need to go a beach resort every jan, being it my bdae mth and a reward for myself for the hard work. i like startin the year with a beach-y resort, just doing nothing. thats my idea of life.
