Being thankful
Why You Can’t Give Up On Finding Love
From Thought Catalogue:
Why You Can’t Give Up On Finding Love
Maybe you had your fair share of break-ups.
Break-ups that had you hurting inside more than you could ever imagine. Break-ups where you knew the last chapter was coming soon but you continue lingering just to hold onto its comfort. And break-ups that had you thinking why on earth you had to go through it in the first place when it’s just another production that’s going to end.
Maybe the relationship was a few weeks or more than eleven years going and you thought the idea of forever was near. That guy you met at the bookstore or the girl you had a connection with at the bar was the one, the forever you had in mind. And you dreamt of countless dreams for him or her to be yours and when they did become yours, you tried every possible way to move mountains for them.
But as time flies, you realized that love wasn’t enough. You keep asking for more likewise, you can’t give them enough.
You fought; you said horrible words to each other that you both didn’t mean at all. You continue on as if nothing went wrong but the hurt is already there, creating a void so deep you don’t even know how to fill it up once again.
And you know what’s next? You or your partner stops trying and the love you have for each other, though still there, is slowly deteriorating. And all of a sudden, things change and you try to get him or her back but this time your efforts are wasted and everything changes.
Then you go back to thinking that you’re forever alone while your friends have the loveliest days of their lives. And you compare yourself. You feel worthless. You regret. You sulk. You cry. You forget knowing how to stand up by yourself. And you cry again. And you sadly… just give up.
Give up on the thought of falling, of being in love — of having someone who will treat you as if you’re everything to them, and you go on dejected and miserable with your life.
But guess what? We weren’t given this life to suffer like this. We were wired to love another and to believe that everything is going to fall back into place. We’re given another person to share our whole life with! Just like how God gave Eve to Adam and how Ted Mosby will finally meet his future children’s mother! Patience is valuable. And you cannot let your patience wear thin. You can’t just let break-ups get the best of you. You can’t just give up on love. Everything stops when one stops trying in life. You have to face the fact that someone had broken your heart (and even your will) but you have stand up and stand proud! Face the truth that they’re not the one and you’re better off. There are billions of people in this world; the one has got to be somewhere.
And who knows? When you meet the one, he or she will make you a thousand times to the nth power happier than anyone you’ve ever had a relationship with and you’ll high-five yourself for doing such a wonderful job!
Just don’t.
Don’t give up on love.
I also haven’t found mine yet but I won’t stop believing that he’s also somewhere waiting and wishing for me. I might not know what tomorrow brings but I know one thing is sure, I choose to make a conscious effort not to give up on love, on finding love.
‘Cause someday, I promise you, we’ll find ours too.

Resistance is Futile
Yes - I contacted him again, telling him that I felt like seeing him again.
And guess what? He said sure!
However it just happens that he's out of town for 3 months - In Japan! It's gonna be a long wait, but hope he remembers when he returns!

女人，別敗在自己手裡
Just saw the following post here, and hey - good things are meant to be shared, isn't it?
【女人，别败在自己手里】
1、你的衣服不用以量取胜，收起那些不合时宜的蕾丝、花边或者娃娃衫，从今天起你得保证挂在衣柜里的每一件衣服都有不错的质地、得体的款式和适合自己的颜色。
2、要对自己的外貌负责，别相信素面朝天才是美，不愿用时间来装扮自己的女孩，请不要对其她漂亮的女孩心生产生嫉妒或不满。但脸上的粉不要厚到让别人担心你一笑会崩掉或掉渣什么的程度。
3、不断充实自己的内涵，多看书，多学习。书架里别只摆言情和网络小说，你需要看点别的，社会、人文、政治、财经、时尚、家庭……花瓶易碎，红颜易老，唯有你的内涵弥久历新。
4、自信！自信！自信！即使站在穿香奈儿洋装，挎着限量版LV包包的女人身边也要抬头挺胸，自信满满。没钱时瞧不起自己的人，有钱了就会瞧不起别人。
5、不要让一些人影响你的心情，这世上多臭不要脸的傻×都有，无视他们好了，别置气，你非要爱生气，那就活该被气死！
6、人都要长大且成熟，大学毕业后不要再梳两条小辫子，别总一开口就：“我们女孩子……”装清纯装可爱比不清纯不可爱本身更要命。
7、性感不是一种装扮，而是一种气质，露出半个屁股不是性感。
8、不要相信偶像剧，别总以为自己是灰姑娘——灰姑娘常有而王子不常有。可以看星座，但不要太相信，否则会吃亏。
9、不要遇到困难或不开心就想到哭，第一滴泪是珍珠，第二滴是水晶，第三滴是露水，第四滴就是自来水。万一脆弱的不行了，请选好哭泣的对象，不要随便借肩膀和胸膛。
10、要有几个死党。但记住，不要和跟你说别人坏话的人交朋友。
11、是秘密就不要随便跟别人说。也不要去探听别人的隐私，不要在背后说他人是非，长舌妇比乌鸦嘴更讨厌。
12、工作时要认真。有野心，偶尔做做工作狂没什么不好。
13、无论你单身，还是已嫁了个好男人，不要有依赖思想，要独立。学会投资，学会理财，不要好吃懒做，自己喜的东西努力自己买，不打男人钱的主意，他给你花是他的事，这是你的骄傲。
14、一个人最大的悲哀就是不愿意当自己，输什么都不输气质，丢什么都不丢个性。
15、别宣扬你的恋情史，男孩越谈越成熟，女孩却越谈越烂。
16、不要24小时都想着同一个人，如果发短信给你喜欢的人，他不回，请不要再发了。
17、记得你喜欢的人的生日，特别是家人。爱父母，爸妈永远是你最重要的人。相信我，子欲养而亲不待比失恋痛苦几百万倍。
18、平等公正的对待你和他的爱情，脚踩多只船终会翻掉。
19、林黛玉无法生存，常常去运动，有时间去学瑜伽或者跆拳道，可以防身。
20、把看韩剧的时间用在自我保养上，做面膜，有条件就去泡温泉，汗蒸，SPA。不要熬夜，有条件请午睡。偶尔喝些红酒，能不抽烟就别抽烟——几年后会让你看上去比你的同龄朋友老好几岁，虽然有的女人抽烟时很迷人。
21、任何场合，应该保持应有的涵养。能不和人争吵，尽量别吵，愤怒之前心里数到20再说话。
22、微笑不花钱，在不同场合展现出你的不同笑容。不要对衣着过时样貌平平的人满脸傲气。
23、经常学习新事物，插花、茶道、绘画、滑雪、潜水、烹饪……都可以，应该有自己的兴趣并从中获得快乐。
24、优秀的男人固然值得珍惜，如果是挂上已婚的标签，看看然后离开，记住这不是你能消费的起的。
25、小气的男人不能要，一买单就脸色突变，AA制好了，谁都不差钱！也别爱上太“怀才不遇”的男人，中国人太多，人才也不少。
26、不犯贱，对任何人。恨一个人不需要理由，就像爱和不爱一个人都不需要理由一样，所以永远不要为了一个不爱你的男人流眼泪，永远不要问分手的男人“你为什么不爱我”之类的话，恨他好了。
27、失恋时别用酒精麻醉自己，跑步吧，或者练练跆拳道、钢管舞什么的——健身房有的是帅哥。爱情不是最重要的事情，'有情饮水饱'是骗人的，很明显。
28、别人对你好不是义务，知恩图报。 51%和49%是给别人和自己的黄金分割比例。

Overheard
Overheard: "I think she's fake, why did we hire her?"
Afterwards: "Aiya, to each their own"
Hello? You think people don't find you fake? Look into the mirror before you pass a comment. Do you even smile at her when passing by? If not, why should she smile at you? If she does, you would definitely think that she has a screw loose, isn't it? If not, you think her fake.
If you smile at people of your own accord, I would have nothing to say. But since you don't, what gives you the right to comment?

Walk Down Memory Lane
So much for being over him - Just a visit to Jimmy Monkey and walk down Khandahar Street brought back the memories... And yes, he appeared, yet again, in my dream!
Somehow I seem to be obsessed over him, and you know what? Maybe I am!

Sabotage
Sabotaged - that's the only way that I could describe my showcase performance.
Why must they have the second chance? Why can't they take the better of the two performances?
My first performance was perfect. PERFECT I tell you. We were on the beat, my feet moved exactly where they were supposed to move.
And then they had to do the second chance - whereby our locations were switched around.
I had a partner who was not confident of himself an insisted on standing at the back he first time round. And so, all the mistakes etc were extra obvious.
What can I say except for sabotage? Frankly speaking, if he gets selected, double sabotage. All I can say is, fuck my life.

Out of my space!
You disgusting woman!
Get out of my space!!
You're supposed to stand at a corner when you come for a class in which you're not a regular! Bloody idiot... Standing in my spot!
Do you think that standing in my spot for 4 entire weeks make that spot yours? I'd be back to claim it - an if you don't move, don't blame me for showing you the black face.
Not just for Cardio Dance, and also for Body Pump? You piece of shit.
