JUST A REMINDER!!!!

Of weddings and whatnots!

Since November till today, I’ve been to 4 weddings, so that means its an average of one wedding per month. Have already invites to 2 more in June and November. I know I am already at that age where my peers are all getting hitched one by one. One question that is constantly bombarded to me is “ So, when is it your turn?” or  “So, got boyfriend or not?” by relatives and friends of parents (sometimes I am also guilty of asking that questions to friends).  Although I don’t really care and most of the time my answer would be “Aiyah, chill la!” or “too many to choose from.” or “ Wah, you think so easy ah, tomorrow I go shopping la”, it really makes me wonder about it. Maybe you think I am worried or desperate, since I am writing about this now, but in actual fact I don’t think about it like OMG, I am getting older and need to get married now. I know everyone says now is the best time to get married as you wouldn’t want to wait too long to start having a family and all that biological clock blabbers you get. But am I ready for such things?

I still question it all the time whenever someone tells me that they are getting married. I am very happy for them and get all excited for their wedding, but when I put myself in their shoe and get a little shiver down my spine. It’s not like I am a person who doesn’t not believe in marriage,  I DO! but I guess for me it ONE BIG HUGE ASS step in life that I rather not make a mistake. I know I think too much when it comes to relationships and close friends of mine think I’m to analytical with it. People say that’s a flaw as it makes me very very guarded with my feelings. They tell me that I think too much, which have come to realize that I do. One of my many flaws I guess.

However this flaw of mine is something that makes me wonder. What has happened to me to make me the way I am? I feel that I am a very emotional person, I cry at weddings, I cry when I watch Oprah, I cry at the tiniest things – cry baby is my nickname. I cry and get all chocked up at romantic movies and romantic gestures, yet when it comes to my own relationships I become this over analytical person. I haven’t experienced horrible heartbreaks and yet so guarded like everyone is out there to get me! Yes, I am strange!

Anyway, I hope that this flaw of mine doesn’t make me into this bitter person who despises relationships and end up a horrible spinster that everyone loves to hate.

Damn emo right this post? Ish……Cannot like this…so here is something for you to laugh about!

Most hilarious book I have ever bought! RIP Michael!

New Year Resolutions

Don't think I thought about resolutions last year, which led me to think why my 2011 wasn't as productive as it would have been. So, I'll make this entry as a reminder of my 2012 to-do-list.

2012 to-do-list:

1. To be healthier - I lost a little weight during the mid of 2011, but kinda gained it all back again with the lack of exercise during the last few months of the year. Hence, I have told myself that I need to get back in shape. Exercise more and eat healthier. Need to seriously put in effort in having more nutritious food home and not to eat out so often and at ungodly hours! This, I know takes loads of discipline! So friends who truly love me, please remind me of healthy food and healthy lifestyle! OKAY?

2. To start saving seriously - I let myself enjoy 2010, spending however I want and saving VERY little. So this year, I will need to start saving SERIOUSLY. Need to seriously control my spending! Not only do I need to start saving, I need to start learning how to invest, play shares and stuff like that so that my money can grow and not just sit in the bank not working for me! Any tips that can help me achieve my goal?

3. To find something to do other than work and play that I can be proud off - Maybe something that can help the society. I need to have a purpose to make me feel like I'm doing something good. I guess that is one thing I like about my job now. I work with a educational company which indirectly shapes the children of our future. I know I can do more, not just that. OR maybe sign up for a class, may it be art, dance, or music, definitely have an on going project and hobby to fill my time.

This should be enough fo 2012, Cheers to everyone with their resolutions and to do lists! May this year be AWESOME!
