i was just reading blogs just now. i know i should be studying or resting. but im just not in the mood for either. mabel and yan deemed it to be the last paper syndrome or wat not. but watever lar. i hate having a runny nose. and with everything that's gg on. im not surprised.

so anyway. onto the topic.

exhibit a.
attractive young female graduate from prestigious university who comes from a well-to-do family. has won numerous awards for certain achievements during her days in top girls school and junior college.

now.

why would a girl like exhibit a settle for anything less than what she has now?
why would she settle for a guy who's earning 2k a month, living in a 5 room executive flat in sengkang and driving a second hand six-year old nissan sunny?

she would rather be settling for a guy who's earning 5k a month, living in a sweet condo off marina and driving a new mercedes slk.

and why would she want to be domesticated?
kids? no way. not till after a few years later.
cook? clean? maid shall do it.

what can male graduates from pretigious singaporean university offer?
backdated loans, national service call ups, a $600 dollar a month internship programme, and a rented nissan march.

that is if you come from a neighbourhood like most of us do.

so what separates us from the lure of the big daddy?

hmm. a thin fine line.

im not saying all girls are like that. but it just irks me that these people always get what they want. and dont have to lift a finger in doing so.

exhibit b.
overweight male undergraduate gunning for honours course, currently in third year degree programme in prestigious singaporean university.

confident man. yes?
rich man. no.
wants success. of course.
gets what he wants. only if he works hard at it.
single, unattached, lonely fella who only wishes someone would get him out of this hell hole.

but can he?

i was watching an episode of gilmore girls. dean said something to luke. implying that the only reason why he and rory arent together is because they are too different. he is always a stars hollow guy and she would always be the little rich girl.

it's really no surprise that she is together with some rich kid now. but he's a cool kid. i like him.

no wait. but u see my point here?

there are no fairy tales involved here. there's no prince going after a cinderella. like charles did with diana. or the other way around.

the only people who arent afraid to try out in a relationship are those who know that their dreams can never be put on hold for someone they love.

this is wat nydia said.

"once you're in uni, the people you meet will be compatible with you (somewhat) in terms of intellect and ambitions and hopefully careerwise, so i guess naturally you will end up with someone not so different from yourself"

haha. so basically she's trying to agree with me. the rich will find the rich. the middle class will settle for middle class.

you'll always find someone who will complete you. so why settle for less?

just today, i found out my gd friend is attached. wont say names. but heh. well done. im not surprised. nor i am scared for u. just that i've come to believe that people who say things and say they will mean it, will always change their minds.

exhibit c.
cool girl who said she wont get attached. needs to know a guy for at least a year before dating. poof. less than a week attached.

exhibit d.
girl who went overseas for exchange. partied like hard. had many dates. poof. came back engaged. with a totally different guy.

exhibit e.
girl who hated the guts out of this guy. put them together in a group. poof. one week later. best of buddies. and holding hands.

exhibit f.
girl who crushed on guy for several weeks. friends said not cute. but she said watever. poof. two weeks later. attached.

exhibit g.
well i could go on. but it's just boring.

love works in mysterious ways. works well with others. doesnt mix well with me. heh. im cynical about love. it gives u highs and lows. and completely messes up ur life. in more beautiful ways than i can imagine.

but the funniest thing, those who annoy you most are the ones you care about. ironic? yeah.

a girl to love,
a girl to hold,
a girl to cherish,
a girl to touch,
a girl to kiss,
a girl to embrace,
a girl to miss,
just another girl.

a conversation with dizzy.

dizzy: damn man, im in love.
me: hah. right.

dizzy: but that's u man. hah. she's sweet and caring. and just different.
me: yeah. different. *nods head*
dizzy: i mean we've been out like a lot. and hung out a lot. i like her friends. and i know they dont hate me and shite. but it's like too fast you know.
me: uh huh. sounds familiar.
dizzy: i told my mum about her.

dizzy: i think im going to marry her someday.
me: wait. u got from in love to marry. in 2 minutes. whoa.
dizzy: i think she's the one.

dizzy: maybe not. but this feels right to me.
me: how she feels about you?
dizzy: dont know. friends? more than friends? we've talked about it, but i guess friends. yep.
me: so u're in love with a friend? that's warped man. it's so one sided. i mean if she's gonna hurt you den what? no longer friends?
dizzy: i dont think she's that immature. plus she knows i like her.
me: yeah. but she likes u as a friend.
dizzy: yah.
me: yeah. so u still love her then. no wait. u're still in love with her then?
dizzy: well yeah. i cant describe it man. it's just like that. simple.
me: wokay. so what u gonna do about it. u gonna tell her and stuff? and hopefully she says yes?
dizzy: nope. i dont think so. i want to be sure this time. i cant let this heart be broken again.
me: tt's wat u said the last time. see where it got u.
dizzy: this time it's different. she's different. she's not like the others.
me: uh huh. and im in love too. right.
dizzy: well yeah. if u put it that way. heh.

okay. this is the excerpt. it's pretty long the conversation. but yeah. summary. he likes the girl, thinks he's in love with her. and wants to bring her home to mummy and yadayadayada. and that after knowing the girl for like hmm. 4 mths. well. i know the girl would be reading this. so *winks* if u like him, dont let him get away. he will cherish ur heart. and promise to take care of u forever. confirm one ah. heh. just a matter or not u are willing to let urself be free and let someone into ur life. once again. :)

if only life were that easy.
