Celebration
____________________________________________________


I thought yesterday would be the last day of celebration in December, because I had no plans for New Year's Eve. BQ and gang would be going to beach party, while I don't really felt like going plus someone would be unhappy. Who knows, Terence send invitation this morning to go over his place for new year countdown. I definitely won't mind a house party.

Anyway, the whole holiday of 1 month (to be exact) is spent meeting friend, shopping for friends' gifts and celebrating my birthday. Actually, I am rather broke this holiday, gotta buy gifts, pay for my HK trip ($150) and Zoukout ($100). Fortunately my birthday is this month, I've got treats from people and mummy gave me ang bao. But

I am supposed to use the money to buy clothes for Chinese New Year, now no money to buy. Haiz haiz... Sad . .

These are what I got for birthday this year:





Body Shop Cranberry Gift Set



Christian Dior Beauty Limited-edition Midnight Charm Lip Gloss Locket



L’Occitane en Provence Mini Pomander




Longchamp Wallet



Charles & Keith Sling Bag with pig Bag Charm



Perllini Handbag



Stripped Bag


Treat to Straits Kitchen


Treat to Annalakshmi


and not forgetting


Swensen's gift vouchers

A BOX of HOMEMADE chocolates (the best chocolates I ever eat!!)

* * * * * * * * *



So I guess I spend the whole holiday playing around. And what DHL said came true, I won't do anything for my fyp this holiday.

Submittion is coming up soon. I gotta start soon!!

being with someone
____________________________________________________


Which is better - Being with someone whom loves you or being with someone whom you love?

As usual, the best answer would be being with someone you love and your love being reciprocated. But how often does this situation occur? Not often.

Being with someone who loves you would give you lots of goodness. They would take care of you, trying to give in to your needs. They would do whatever you want them to do. But no matter what they do, it does not really matter, because they are just not the one you love.

Maybe one day you could become the livelong partner of the one who loves you. But the marriage might not be because you love the person, but rather of conveniences or obligations. You might be happy skin-deep, because you know that that person is not the one you love, you would be happier with the one you love.

Some people could live with marrying someone who loves them more, because they want the other party to give more. They want to be taken care of, they want to be loved. They may feel that it is a better way.

They may even think that one day they may really fall for the person. But I believe that once you recognized the ideal person for you, the person that you really love, everyone else would fall short of him/her.

Being with the one you love, you would definitely be happy (duh!!). But it could also bring you hurt. They may not be as sensitive to you as you to them. They could even take you for granted. The hurts may leave you crying hour after hour, day after day. But it is up to yourself to judge if it is worth it.

I guess the best is that you marry the person you love and the person also loves you.

That is the ideal situation, but how many people can get it?

Actually many.

time
____________________________________________________


Time passed by like nobody's business. It had been a week plus since my last paper. Something's great, some.. not so. Anyway, so happy that I don't need to change my prof for fyp. Yeapie!

My birthday is coming soon again. This year I would be spending it in Church, because there's a church carnival this year, on my birthday. Heh.

Birthday's coming and somehow reminded me of birthday cards. I remembered those days in Secondary School whereby I frequently wrote morbid stuff in my friends' cards. Like " Happy Birthday. You are one year / step closer to death."

I used to think that it is fun writing these kinda stuff. All I was thinking about is "This is soo soo true, and no one would write." It didn't cross my mind that it is actually not nice to write this kinda stuff. And somehow or other, this sentence came back to my mind this year. I could relate more closely to this sentence than ever before.

Maybe this happens when people get old.

This sentence no doubt is very true. But how many of us dare to face this truth. Most people would think that there's always a tomorrow. I would even admit that I am one of them. But how many tomorrows do we have? We would never know.

Many people could be having the lifestyle of many tomorrows. We start procrastinating the important stuff that we should do. We believe that we would have tomorrow or the right time to do it. But in actual fact, there's no right time. We could always find excuses to postpone it.

When will we do the right thing?

There's another group of people who thought that life is short and should live it to the fullest. I have seen some of them really living life that there's no next week (Because they did weekly planning). They have to be in the "hippest" places, the hottest clubs in town. They spend at least once a week in clubs. On other nights, they meet up with their "periodic friends" (people who are around for a while). Indulging themselves in lust, alcohols, fun, lies. Maybe I should call these group of people socialite. These are indeed enjoyable stuff. But what if there's no tomorrow? What will all these become?

Are these the right thing to do?
