  1. i am randomness redefined

    May 22, 2008 by admin

    whee! new look!

    decided to change it cos everyone has been teasing me about the rainbows (GAY PRIDE FTW!! hoho), especially dan, who insists that i have lesbian tendencies. WHY he would think that i have no idea (actually i do, but =x); maybe it’s just his way of subtly hinting that he’s really female, i don’t know.

    speaking of dan, i remember there was once i was pissed at him about something, some really teeny weeny matter, and we were arguing discussing about the matter when the absurdity of it all hit me and i burst out laughing mid-discussion because it was just TOO funny.

    obviously dan wasn’t amused–he thought i was mind-fucking him, you know, like pretending to be upset and then cause a big fuss just to get him flustered and stuff, but i swear i wasn’t. i was really upset, and i truly found it funny when we were talking about it. well, at least i don’t ignore him for days and refuse to tell him the reason.

    tsk. guys are so contradictory. ignore them and they whine about us being unreasonable; trash it out and laugh it off and they say we are mind-fucking them. and they say girls are hard to please. pffftt.

    i guess the moment i got it out of my system i was no longer bothered by it, and so found it hilarious. teehee. i ish amuses myshelf shumtimes.

    the weather is starting to warm up, i think–you can never really tell with the PMS-y weather these days. i still remember exactly 1 year ago, when yy and qy came for a visit, we could walk around in the day in short-sleeved tees without a jacket. this year, i am still having to wear long-sleeved tees in the day, albeit without a jacket.

    BGR has been a very hot topic around the office lately, thanks to junghwan’s budding romance.

    so the topic at lunch yesterday was about the length of a relationship. min-joo, who is currently in a more-than-2-years-and-counting relationship, expressed envy over junghwan’s young love, while boram, who is in a relationship that’s a few weeks old, said that, for once, she would like for her relationship to pass the 100-day mark.

    i don’t know why people think that it is enviable to be in a long-term relationship. sure, you may have been together for 5, 10 years, but if that relationship is wrought with problems then what is the point right. (yes, there is no question mark at the end of the previous sentence because it wasn’t meant to be a question.)

    it’d be silly to stay in a relationship just “so i can tell people that we have been together for x years” when the relationship is no longer working.

    being in a long distance relationship is not easy, but i’d rather have my partner physically far apart than have him beside me but yet feel like he is somewhere on the other side of the universe.

    it’s so much easier to deal with physical distance than emotional distance.


  2. young love

    May 20, 2008 by admin

    so junghwan is currently chasing after this girl, and the girls in our office are all rallying behind him and giving him advice on how to chase the girl.

    he sent an sms to her asking her out for a movie tonight, and he showed us her reply.

    “you have lots of friends, why ask me?”

    min-joo and boram went all excited and said that the girl sent that message just because she wants to hear him say that he wants to see her, and told him that he should NEVER reply along the lines of “because there’s no one else/because i’m bored” and asked him to just tell her straight that he wants to meet her.

    and minjoo concluded that the girl sort of likes him, or at least doesn’t not like him.

    aiyoh. damn cute la. kids. hurhur.


  3. dreams, life and relationships

    April 18, 2008 by admin

    “You will find that having after all is not so pleasurable as wanting.” (Spock “Star Trek”)

    i got this in my email today, and while i find that there is some truth to it, i’d honestly rather have all my dreams come true and experience the realities that come with it than to look back 20 years down the road and think of what could have been, simply because i was too scared to pursue my dreams.

    but, whether it is a subconscious effort or not, this is also the reason so many people choose not to go after what they want.

    i have had a few people tell me this: “i wish i were doing something other than what i am doing now.”

    well, then go ahead, i said. what’s stopping you?

    and then they come up with all sorts of excuses on why it is impossible to do what they want, or why they are stuck where they are.

    i’m not trying to be critical or anything — everyone has their own demons to face and every fear is as valid as another, even if it is something as stupid as the fear of flying(!!!) cockroaches (my greatest fear).

    and i can understand why some people would rather dream than realize their dream (ha this is so alchemist).

    because then, what next?

    but who was it that said, 20 years down the road, you will regret the things that you didn’t do, rather than the things you did? (or something to that effect)

    ================

    so the best friend went to get herself a boyfriend a few weeks ago, and i’m very happy for her as he seems to be treating her pretty well. but i’ve yet to meet him and give my stamp of approval, so it’s still too early for judgement. *evil laugh*

    she’s one of the most important people in my life, and it’s a great wish of mine that my partner would be someone who can feel comfortable in her presence. and even better if our respective partners could get along well so that the 4 of us can go out and play together.

    we’re still young and have too many things that we wanna do, but it’d be nice if, 20 or 30 years down the road, when we are tired of wandering the earth, the place that we choose to settle down in would be in close proximity to each others’ home — maybe not in the same city but hopefully in the same country at least.

    april is almost over, may will swoosh by, and it will be not long before i see the bf again. :)
