holding the king n ace of spades
had a so-so time last weekend
went to cafe del mar on sat nyt...nice plc but to quite boring otherwise
juz sat ard n talked..the music's not my kinda music
got hungry n sleepy n finally left by 130 am.
haf u eva had the feeling of pure bliss only to be woken up wif a hard slap of reality? i had one of those recently. i had a great time, feelin wonderful, havin the time of my life, but it was only a straight flush when the other side has a royal flush. so wen the cards were shown i was left to rue my luck. n i tell it's no fun. wen ur heart drops all the way to the floor, plus u urself stepping on it, it's no joke. ur whole body juz feels like curling up n hiding under a stone for the rest of ur life.
it's no one's fault but my own. tt's the shitty part. cant push the blame to someone else.
went to lepak last nyt wif my best fren. we got to talkin how our lives had changed over the years n where we'll c ourselves in 10 yrs time. conclusion, we've gotten nowhere. for me, i dunno wat i was too caught up wif in the past that i'm like dis now. i'm turnin 30 soon n for most ppl, life stability should be a given now. yet i'm struggling day to day. i haf no talent to show for. i'm tone deaf so playin music is out of the question. i cant sing for nuts. hmm, mebe for nuts can la..sing to the monkeys n they'll throw me nuts. i cant play any musical instrument. i dun even noe wat i'm good at. if only i'd been more focused in a certain area in the past years from when i was young i myt haf made somthin of myself. mebe a national takraw player. mebe i'd gotten my honours n be in a highly respected engineering post. mebe i'd gotten married n had 3 kids by now. mebe i'd gotten my own house n car..mebe mebe mebe..there's this saying tt goes ard "those who cant do, teach"
ppl say there's always a reason for sumthin happening. i've yet to find the reason for my life. theres juz so many whys ryt now. mebe it's juz my human nature showin itself now. not contented wif the way things are. always wanting more. y more? mebe it's bcoz things r not turning out the way i picture them to b. well, ppl tell me it's no use cryin over spilt milk, juz go milk some more cows but the cows in my ranch r not wat i wan...well mebe some of them r.
these analogy may only mean anythin to some ppl. 9 spades da tutup, tgk camne la eh.

good bad right wrong
hmmm....choices
we all haf choices in life and the choices we make r wat shapes us. either we reap the rewards tt come wif wat we chose or we live wif its consequences. however, sometimes we r forced to make choices tt we r unsure of. or ones tt will make us unhappy. n we'll tend to regret it later, thinkin to ourselves tt we cld haf given ourselves more time to make a better judged decision.
but is there ever such a thing as too late? decisions cld have been made but isnt it really up to our own selves to overturn such decisions. even if things have been done, we cld always make the effort to make things better or make things right. wat do we base our choices on in the first plc?
Life is all abt learning. we neva stop learning. wrong choices teach us to make better informed ones in the future. ppl learn from mistakes and mature by adapting their decision making process. right choice, wrong choice. good choice, bad choice. actuali these r subjective aren't they? at e end of it all, u alone measure ur own choices n rate them according to ur own standards. then there's the natural choice n forced choice. wat eva it is, it all boils down to fate n destiny. the type of choices available to one's self is predetermined n y these choices appear is still a mystery to many. we make decisions evry single day of our lives but do we eva stop to think abt evry thing tt we decide. is eating nasi lemak versus mee rebus the ryt choice or was it a bad choice.
wat i'm trying to say is tt sometimes, we shldnt judge a person by the choices he/she makes. to us it may be wrong but to him/her it may be right. one man's meat is another man's poison. how do we ourselves decide whether the choice we make is correct? in my opinion, there's no ryt nor wrong. decide, action, adapt. the important thing is not to regret one's own choice. for me, it has been simple enuf, choose the road tt makes me happy, even if down the road it may turn sour, i'll wait for another fork in the road and pick it up fm there. make the best of evry situation n find the lining behind evry dark cloud. there's juz not enuf time to waste it on being stressed out. however, i've been guilty of tt too...haha
