Sweet talks

One day in your dreams you saw me beside you, walking down the sandy beach of your life journey. Each time we walked, there were 2 sets of footprints marked on the sand beach.

During your hardest and painful moments, you look back and noticed only one set of footprints. And when you saw me again you questioned me. "Why do you leave me during my hardest and painful moments?".

I smiled and I replied, "You only saw one set of footprints because I was carrying you during your hardest times". You smiled.

How's this paragraph?

Surprisingly, i woke up around 9am today despite the fact i slept around 430am. Had a long 5 hours man's talk with Ken, Derrick and Sam over at the Prata House, all the way from 11pm to 4am. The most interesting thing about the prata session, was the fact that the prata house was simply too business minded during Chinese New Year.

They didn't want to sell plain pratas, yet all the cheese, egg pratas were available. You might be thinking why is that so. Well, simple fact, they would rather use the dough to make cheese, egg or anything else which is slightly more expensive. And they even bring out the superstition of Chinese, that plain pratas is not a good omen, cos it means empty. So we should not eat it during this period of time. How smart can they get?

Just a little about the talks we have last night, we were pretty much into the topics of love, girls, cars. Ken was probably the subject of the day. With no offence, we sorta end up teasing him about how much he spent on someone overseas. We give him suggestions on what he could have done with the almost $2k he spent. Like.. 6 years of 2 plain pratas everyday, 1 year of Geyland visits weekly, increase his Lego collections, get a car license, etc. It's was quite bad for us to say all this, but of course we told him the essence of it, is that he did in fact enjoy himself, was shown love and concern at that point of time too. It's still not that bad afterall.

Sam was asking Ken if he likes to be sad. And he was saying that the feeling of sadness and loneliness do give him certain kicks at times. Stupid? Maybe, maybe not. But of course we do understand the fact that it's definitely not a healthy thing to be always down. He pointed out another point for discussion and i was thinking about it till now. He was saying, should guys be more strong and suppress all his feelings, instead of showing how emotionally unstable he is.

Not to take it as man's pride or anything, probably it's true to a certain extend that we should be the stronger sex, in terms of how we should manage our emotions. After thinking about it for a moment, i guess we should? It's pretty tough to see who is the stronger sex nowadays, especially when it comes to emotional matters. Perhaps more a person by person basis. For myself, i think i'm not that strong. Cause i whine alot? Probably so.

Then we got into the topic about personal charm. Time in poly seems to be rather wasted, because we realised we do have a number of admirers? Sounds disgusting to say this here, but anyway i wasn't aware of it when i was back in poly, until they told me about it. It seems like although one may be good looking, or has certain attraction to others, somehow we just don't get many female friends. And Derrick got a conclusion that although we do not know how to chase a girl, we do know how to love a person whole heartedly. That's what differentiate us and those who have tonnes of girls by their side. They are just direct opposite of us.

That leads to the topic of sweet talks. Who else but Ken, who's the un-proclaimed king of all sweet talks. As always, he never fail to deny this fact. So we started throwing out all the facts right at him, and he of course have no much to counter-argue them. Case closed. He's king of sweet talks. And so he was saying that sweet talks have to come into play when you hope to start a fatal attraction with a gal. Maybe i made it sound too exaggerating. But nevertheless, his point was that it's pretty much a norm and a must when dealing with gals.

Derrick was saying somehow his gf did mentioned to him about why he hasn't been saying those sweet honeyed-mouth words as compared to the past. But he felt it's just not natural for him to say all these. It doesn't mean the value of love has diminished, but he prefer actions more than words. I think i'm on his side with regards to this issue. Cause i always have this thinking that the majority, or should i say the easy way for most, is sweet talks. It's pretty much cheap, cause you don't have to pay for it, and at times you don't even have to be responsible for what you said.

So in short, it's all the tiny weeny small little things, which you do as part and parcel of your daily life that matters. For example making the extra effort to make sure the gal is greeted by a morning sms everytime she wokes up, for every morning? Sound easy to do so, but the effort has to be there. And you don't even have to sweet talk in that particular morning message. What beats seeing the name of someone you love, appear in your inbox everyday you woke up? It's just as sweet without any special contents in it.

Last topic, we were discussing the possibility of selling oneself on blog. By posting a "who-wants-me" post in the blog, hoping someone will respond to it. Sounds desperate, but of course we came to a conclusion that, even if one does that, no one will bothers.

Day 2 of Chinese New Year, is just like any other day. I'm suppose to start my reading of checks for my Air Grading. But simply not in the mood. Feeling sleepy now. And i've yet to get all my stuff for my trip. I've decided to settle on the Black Levi's watch, but i need to save abit to get it before i leave. How i wish i'm leaving next week. I need more time.

Alright, end of "sweet talks". Till then.
