When Promises Were Made Out Of Thin Air

Every being is capable of making promises. Whether it is to our family, friends, girlfriends, boyfriends, aunty, uncle or even our pet dog, promises used to hold on to something so crucial and vital that one would bet his or her life trying to fulfill it. It maybe a simple promise to get the chores done, or promise to protect someone, fulfilling the promise was something so great that it influences the integrity of a person.

Nowadays, the word promise means giving someone hope, and you hoping that the person forgets what you promised them. Sad to say i am one of those person in a particular way. I always forget what i promised. And its so embarrassing sometimes. One of my major flaws is promising time. Time is something so cheap yet expensive. Its priceless but once its gone you never get it back. Unless i live by a clock, being able to keep up with time is something seemingly impossible to me.

i promise to wake up by 9 to start my assignment/ attend exam/ do chores/ etc, i woke up at 11 the next day feeling like a complete failure/ disappointed.

People do use the word promise like some form of space filler like the word "errr". Its one of those condiments in a sentence which gives hope, enlightens someone heart.

Example: I might bring you out on a date

I PROMISE to bring you out on a date.

Refering to the sentence above, do you spot the difference?

So the moral of the story is, hold on to your promise, never give false promise and hope.

Be Prepared

CNY hs ended and those who ate alot of cookies are in delima of facing Freaking Awesome Triglyceride. YEAH, the season of losing weight is here. Actually come to think of it, it always have been this time of the year that i come to realize that i ate a little too much during the festive season. Why? See, Xmas is in December when we really started the eating binge. This continued through January where people send their love by a stack of fruitcake. Why waste the fruitcake. AND the fruitcake was most prolly made in surplus during Xmas, So... yeah...

Just when you know that the festive season is at a pause during Mid January, your self control is still on vacation somewhere in Bora Bora, and her stupid, annoying mother in law, the guilty conscience is always lingering nearby. So in order to satisfy her, you eat more instead.

Just when your self realization came back and haunt the crap out of you, CNY is here. So cant help it la. you just continue eating. Once the tempting 2 weeks are over, you are left with the aftermath (leafover cookies) which is always in the kitchen. I try not to enter, but the imaginary flavor wafting through the air is over-bearing.

Therefore be prepared to endure another 2 or more torturous weeks of over indulgence.

Once again, assignments flood our work desk. We are in our 2nd week and already, there is an assignmentdue on the 3rd week. WTFacebook! lets start now and sing later :)

Chinese New Year

Cookies and goodies stray over the coffee table. No one was looking. Everyone was busy fishing out blue, red and green notes. Busy chatter over who gets the lucky 21 and who don't. Those who were losing at the gambling table subsequently lose themselves at the coffee table. Stumbling into gluttony, thinking over the lost fortune.

Yes, its Chinese New Year again. Btw, i dont really get the we have to gamble every CNY. Why is there an urgency. Maybe its a tradition. Maybe its luck testing? ah, the joy of winning. The adrenaline of betting more. The upside down smile when all is lost.

As a friendly reminder, assignments are piling up again. Workloads are doubled. Results are out. Everything seems bleak right. On the brighter side, 2012 is near woohoo! Choi!

How was the Chinese New Year harvest this year? Good bad? no matter what, festive seasons are here so that we can let go of our past, our stress and get together with our loved ones and celebrate. That reminds me, we haven lo sang this year. lets do it this thursday? agree? deal? ok then!
