I don’t know about you but I love rainy days and its grassy smell.
The last quarter of the year is in fact my favourite coz that’s when the volume of rainfall collected is at its highest.
Speaking of the year’s last quarter, makes me realize that year 2010 is soon coming to an end. New year seemed to pass not very long ago and now Christmas is coming?
Days are passing crazily fast that I haven’t got the chance to slow down to take a good look at what’s happening around me.
At the beginning of this year, my rather close ex-colleague was happily announcing to us he is going to marry his gf of 5 years and was high-spiritedly in preparation for his wedding next January. Now less than 3 months away to his big day, his wedding suddenly was called off because he and his gf broke up… sadly involving the existence of a 3rd party. No it wasn’t my friend’s problem, it was his gf who chose an already attached rich guy over her 5 years long bf who has been paying for all their dates, vacations, wedding preps. No doubt my friend was heart-broken, feeling betrayed and disappointed totally but to me, I felt it was a blessing in disguise. I rather him suffer some monetary loss (wedding preparations that were paid for and done) now than having to go through divorce and even deeper emotion / monetary turmoils later on.
He didn’t lose anything, did he? In fact I think he gained instead by casting this unfaithful girl aside, who is not worthy of his love.
On the other hand, I heaved a sigh of relief because I no longer have to worry about how I’m going to attend two weddings on the same day.
My work is entering the peak season and it’s been not too bad these days, considering I’ve just passed 2 months. It was hell bad when I first started because everything was hands on training. There wasn’t really anybody to sit down with and to guide me. Then by first week, I was assigned tasks and I was expected to do / learn at the same time. Learning curve is sure steep and I spent much longer time trying to figure how to resolve work problems. I was forced to pick up fast and I guess now it pays off some how 
Downside… I’m not travelling this December! It’s harder to take leave over here due to blocked off periods. and there, results the break in our consecutive family year trips.
Come soon, my holidays!!!
I am looking for an update. Your fren’s incident is very interesting, but not surprising in the set of Singapore where girls… probably including you, doesn’t understand the need of true love… or what it is anyway. So either they fall in love with a guy who can’t love them, or they… married for something else… other than love.
If you don’t update, I can’t pick up the reference points. Hope you will be ok…
Hi Scope, it’s pretty unfortunate that you seem to have a very negative view of L-O-V-E. Evidently, you seem to can’t get over a love you never or can’t have. I don’t suppose you yourself is in the position to comment on others’ understanding of love while you are still fighting with yourself / pretending to be cool / being doubtful towards love. To you, girls in singapore are a sad bunch who never ever find true love but to me I would say you are definitely a very sad guy who has a love he can never have.
No matter what I am to say or some others would say, we can never be able to convince you we are indeed in love with someone who loves us back and we marry the special someone for who they are and not the something else that is in your head. The problem lies with you. Yes you.
Seriously whether I update or not, you can never pick up the points because you only choose to believe in what you believe. I don’t know you and you don’t know me, so leave it as it is.
So continue to lead the life you lead, being stuck in your frustrations of love when love seriously needs no explanation. It comes, it comes. It goes, it goes.
If you can’t handle the subject, stop attempting to be a guru in it. Maybe you would like me to greet you some time as “Hi joke!” instead of Hi Scope.
I wish you happiness soon if you allow yourself to have some.
Nay. It’s not about me, Jinny. It’s ok. You are not the only subject to think like that.
I’d still like to see your update after you have finished with the updates of your bridal preparation site.
But it’s quite true… that girl… now a woman of another is making my stance pretty hard. I won’t blame you for seeing things this way. But whether she’d never be mine or not… I am not sure.
All signs point to something very strange… with her marriage as well. To be honest… I hope she either never wakes up or I am wrong indeed. Else… I fear the worst. I’d be keeping her under tab as and when I can. She is… now aging very fast… heartbreaking.
I am prepared to be alone till this life ends, anyway. If there is such a need be. So be it.
As for you… Jinny, I don’t think you know the man you are marrying. But… as in a THB’s case, I do not wish to interupt the process. However, I must… in all goodwill, put things before you, that you and him don’t seem to have compatible characters. ^.^
You are the about 50th case who is resisting assessment, I hope you will prove to be the 1st case that I have assessed wrongly…
Human studies is strictly science, Jinny… In time you might realise what I am driving at. It as if you have both hands, but if you are left handed, you will almost definitely swing a knife with the left hand…
I’d give you five years to ‘enjoy’ the marriage… You will definitely have big quarrels with him, because computing… the chance is about 80%. Usually a ‘stimulation’ will come later on. If you have a religion such as Christianity it might help when love fades… and competition enters.
Jinny… I doubt you will be as tolerant as Irene Kang… … That’d be when your test truly begins.
To be honest, I like it best when every case defended… else, no kick.
Good luck.
