When you have to explain yourself to your friend, maybe you are not such close friends..
True friend knows the soul behind the person and trust in your character while acquaintances judge you by what they see on the surface.
The cheapest things on earth are words.
Sigh, why am I feel sad sad sad?

"When we have a toothache, we know that not having a toothache is a wonderful thing. When we do not have a toothache, we do not appreciate our non toothache."
This is a tendency many of us are guilty of isn't it? Me too sometimes. :p.

Friend says i'm being naive. She said 95% of people don't have integrity and 100% of guys cheat. Hmm.. That's a little extreme.

Blur me unknowingly did something which i realized was a mistake only much later. I could just ignore and pretend that nothing was wrong and save myself all the troubles to address it. And the other party would probably not protest nor say anything. Yet, it would have made the person feel 委屈and shortchanged...and probably disappointed.

Irony is when you were the first couple in the group while the others were still trying to search for their love and yet today, both of you are still single, while the rest have all settled down..

Me: hmmm... but then, you won't have known in advance that it would turn out like that..

Not sure if it's because as you grow older, you get lazier, more anti-social and simply do not bother as much to seek for social acceptance. Hmm, this is really no good... Three examples:

The photographs were the work of a photographer who spent a year volunteering in Timor Leste (aka East Timor). There wasn't a lot of photographs on exhibit but the photographs were rather nice, and so i still ended up being late for a dinner appointment with a friend. :p

I picked up this book while at the bookstore the other day and ended up reading the whole book at the store, and buying the book as a Christmas gift for a friend because it was really good.
The story was at times funny, at times sad, at times warm and often time, i felt a sense of nostalgia..
