Never try to love a man, just understand him.
Never try to understand a woman, just love her.
you know, sometimes.. love has its limits.
vday in a week, and there is this pressure on everyone, singles and couples alike, to do smth for vday. singles start finding their 'dates' and couples start planning their dates. this season of love is often filled w guys/gals alike lavishing extra (often expensive) gifts for their special someone, prices soar, market forces seem to be pushing all of these. i wonder if ppl do celebrate such days for their loved ones, or they're obliged to cos vday's 'supposed' to be the day of love, and if they fail to do smth special, their spouses kick up a fuss saying they dont care. haha. i dun believed in vday for the significant other, but i do believe vday's a day to spread love. to my friends and family nonetheless. seriously, splurging on a gift on this occasion seems quite pointless to me. flowers (they wither and die), bears (metoyou bear sounds fine, but its freakin expensive), chocolates (ohh man think of smth original), dinner (the marked up prices dun appeal to me), what else? romantic strolls on the couple filled streets of singapore? haa.. last yr's vday was nice w frens n colleagues, but i definitely felt like crap at the end of the day. this yr, im sure it'd be better.
i think i like to work alone, take charge of my own stuffs. selfish? arrogant? or independent? i dunno. neither do i know how to put tt across to han, who's a fellow colleague now. nothing much, just a personal preference, but sometimes expressing that idea might sound offensive to others. i've no idea why i had no prob w edmund. wassit cos i did the full presentation, and we matched up well w each other thru eye contact? somehow han n my style of working is v different, n i can see there's some sorta discomfort w some clients. ahhh.. work is work. its tough handling colleagues, even tougher handling colleague-friends. i like the r/s w edmund. like the fact tt he's professional, responsible and all that. pretty attractive for a young guy like him. (deardear.. he's NOT a crush. allan's NOT a crush too!!!)
