I think, I see, I know

There is always this romantic concept especially when it comes to the west, one takes a trip down to some less than glamourous nevertheless spritual land and you will imediately think Eat, Pray, Love faster than you fart and to a great extend that is true for many people. The world is indeed fill with lost people and capitalism has left us asking more questions, wondering what is the point of this and that and to when will all unhappiness and yearning for more ends. But that's not the trip I booked for. Perhaps it was more Eat, LookSee and the Love part, I would just be happy with a Fling. But life has a funny way to twist things around and nope, still no Love or Fling but that's kinda expected. After all, I paid for a holiday, not hunk. India is indeed very beautiful, just as I would have expected it to be. I did get alot of whys and whats when people found out that I intended to go there and I am always amazed by those questions - I mean it's one of the oldest civilizatio

It's been awhile

...in India. This is what I am looking forward to. Perhaps clean away my sin? Hahaha. I have decided not to dip myself into the water...maybe my legs. Or sprinkle a tiny bit on my head. It's super dirty for sure.

Am I supposed to laugh?

Some things never stay the same, this is something that I've realised when I finally hauled my ass out from the couch to do abit of wardrobe organising and in my case it's time to finally say goodbye to those clothes that I either used to think was cool or fit me back then. Ok, so I was practically a size zero back then and I have hold on to clothes that used to fit me like most of the good memories of yesteryears. But things change, people change and what people used to like isn't the same as today. Case in point, it really baffled me when I was trying (mind you the keyword here is TRYING) to watch this so called popular movie from last year - Bridesmaids. I mean, it is supposed to be funny? Really? Am I supposed to laugh at the mishaps and the loser type lives of some of these women? I mean should I be expecting something considering this is yet another gig from the Apatow money making machine? They make movies like this and Knocked Up and this is supposed to be female em

It's raining everyday, it seems

They say it's not a matter of how much you earn but rather how much you save - savings as in money that you put away either for investment, or stashed away for those rainy days like when your favourite designer is on sale or finally getting that thing that you have been coverting for millions of years. You know what I mean. But it's never easy, is it? You can see money literally pouring out as soon as it gets in, bills and such and then to entertain all the hungers that you kept well supressed since last month, before you know it the 100 ringgit bill is broken into smaller denominations and then it becomes smaller and smaller till you don't know where it all went. How about pulling out that certain small sized card and just let it swipe away all the blues? (shopping seems to cure everything isn't it?) And then what do you get at the end of the day and at the end of the month? Nothing has changed and you rack up more damages and you continue the same cycle all over again
