When being lost is not all bad...
What's better?
A) You're lost and moving in all directions, feeling and trying to find the right way out for you.. You find yourself constantly making U-turns, and after a few ventured routes, you find yourself back at Square 1.
OR
B) You're confident of where you're headed and you take big strides in that direction. After some distance however, you start to doubt whether this is the right route after all. In spite of your doubts, you continue walking in the same direction because you're already too deep in, and changing routes will immediately render your previous distance covered futile.
It was recently conveyed to me that most people at the age of 25-30 are still figuring out their paths in life. Take people of my age for example. At 26, most females would have had a few years of working experience (assuming they start work at 21). And most guys would have worked for only 1 to 2 years, after 2 years of toil and sweat in national service.
So if you are feeling lost at this stage (aka quarter-life crisis), it's perfectly alright! In fact, you should be more daring and try out more things.
There's not a high chance that you already know what you will be doing for the rest of your career and life, so I say...
Go out and experience every thing that you have always thought of and wanted to!
Ignore the naysayers and pessimists; these people only have bad things to say because they are people with limited mindsets and they cannot embrace people who do better than them.
It's better to have ventured and lost, than not to have ventured at all.

Shit
Shit
519am and I'm still so awake.
But i'm also kinda bored because no one else is awake at this time.
Don't know when the late nights came back, but i'm undecided on whether this is a good or bad thing!
Shit
I think I get my priorities all wrong.
I do all the least important things first, and procrastinate forever on the critical stuff.
Please... you know what's the wheat and what's the chaff, so separate them. NOW
Shit
I think I get attached too easily.
Makes my life so much more miserable.
Especially when it feels im the only one affected by it.

VDay Date FAIL
What's worse than not having a female date on VDay?
Supper with a male friend at your neighbourhood coffeeshop.
What's worse than having supper with a male friend at your neighbourhood coffeeshop on VDay?
When the indian stall assistant looks at you cheekily and asks why didn't you bring your girlfriend along.
Thanks KY and Mani for being there. =)

Love is...
So fragile, yet so empowering;
So crippling, yet so forgiving
---
In the past year, I witnessed quite a few friends who broke up with their other halves.
Most of them were dealt harsh cards, and did not take to the breakup well at all.
I'll write more when i find the right words... in the meantime, i'll leave you with this beautiful song - More Than Words

Some things don't change...
like how leopards dont change their spots..
and soft spots don't change their places...
and soft spots don't change their places...
