Finding a partner

Have you ever been troubled about finding a boyfriend or a girlfriend? Do you feel a pang of jealousy when you're surrounded by couples? Sad to say, I'm starting to feel troubled by it now, even though I'm still young. Why? I'm not sure... Maybe it's due to peer pressure...?

Well, you can guess it, I'm gonna touch on this topic which may be sensitive to certain people (like me). I'm sure that as we grow older, most of us will develop feelings for the opposite sex (or even same sex). Well I'm not gonna start on saying if I'll support gays and lesbians, I'm gonna say the feelings associated with being left on the shelve. Yes being left alone on the shelve.

We are humans and we tend to judge people base on their looks. It's one of our nature to do that, no point avoiding and saying that you don't judge a book by it's cover. I do that too. However, just as we judge others, others judge us and it's just an endless cycle with the human race. So, what I'm trying to say is, guys and girls, it's time to stop fanboying and fangirling about those Kpop idols or Vampire Diaries characters and start looking for a real decent partner. Also, it's time to stop judging people by their looks and instead, try to get to know them first. Some people are really fun and enjoyable to be with.

Also, if you have yet to find that certain someone, fret not. Don't go into panic mode and whined like what I did a few days ago. Just enjoy being single! Make new friends and go out! Also, I'm not promoting singleton (otherwise the government may put me to blame for the low marriage percentage in Singapore...) It's just that being single has it's perks and before you tie the knot and spend the rest of your lives with a partner, go all out and enjoy your youth and single life.

I've been single for quite some time and as I enter University, I see couples almost everywhere. University seems like the place for guys and girls to pair up and move on. It's true, at the age of 19-23, it's time to find a good partner and settle down in the long run. However, we cannot rush into it and quickly find a partner randomly. That is rude for the partner and basically, you're deceiving yourself. 

My friends around me are starting to pair up unknowingly and just a few days ago, I felt lonely about it, so I whined to my other friend (who has partners since long ago). And they scolded me for not opening my eyes and accepting guys around. I must thank them for scolding me. Hahahaha. Now, I felt that I was just being lame and stupid to whine about such simple things. In the past, I'd told others that I'll be alright living with myself and having no partners. Now, I should have the same mentality and move on  with my life. I mean, being alone isn't all that bad actually. I could continue to watch Running Man and spend more time relaxing with other single friends.

Furthermore, why should I be worrying about such things? Hahaha! I'm being too sensitive. After all, Kpop idols are also single (mostly) and some have yet to get into a relationship! So, I'm actually better than they do already (ok, I'm being mean to be comparing Kpop idols with myself but still, I need to comfort myself). So in conclusion, being single doesn't mean it's the end of the world, relax and maybe 'open your eyes wider' like what my friends said. Who knows, maybe the person could be right next to you!

And I have already set my eyes on a certain someone~

Rejection

It's been a while since I've logged in! I've been too busy dealing with school work and balancing CCA activities. It was a tumultuous week last week, with me having a test on wed and lab on Tuesday and Japanese homework due on Tuesday. Phewww! I'm so glad those are over! Oh not to forget my CCA falling on sat.

Well, today I'm gonna touch on the word 'rejection'. Don't get me wrong, it's not about rejecting guys/girls in relationships. It's about rejecting people when they asked for help. And don't get me wrong as well. I didn't meant it to be a selfish person and not help anyone at all. It's just: do as much as you can.

Just yesterday, my friend showed me a website which describes the various horoscope and it has described my characteristics fully. I'm an easy-going person and if anyone needs help even for the minor things, I'll assist them. This is true. I didn't realize it until days ago, another friend of mine (whom I was helping) told me I've always been helping people and never rejects them when they need me. I just brushed her comments aside and said that my help was nothing. However, after reading the horoscope, I thought to myself 'maybe I've been doing a lot for others'.

Helping others is a good thing. It's basic morals. Basic courtesy even. However, there is a limit to helping people. If it's on the expense of your time or money, maybe you should try to reject. I've always been saying okay to anything, either eating in an expensive restaurant when I'm broke or helping friends carry heavy load or even having last minute calls to accompany people to go out. I'll just about say okay to anything. Is it in me? I'm not sure. But I do know one thing. Some of this 'okays' are on the expense of my precious time. It's time for me to reject certain calls of help and start walking my own life and helping myself.

Rejection is not all that bad. And even if people rejected your help, it doesn't really mean they're selfish. It probably meant that they have no time and are busy with their lives and activities. There's always a two side to everything.

I've been helping others and I believe I've come to a certain limit. It's time for me to say no and walk my life journey well.

Selfish people

I'm back today! It's my only free day on this super busy week! Today, I'm going to talk about what happened to me recently. I realised my life sounds very dramatic, but I believe everyone will have met selfish and selfless people in their lives.

Just recently, there seemed to be a misunderstanding in between my group members as well as certain members of the other group. Well, I shouldn't be talking bad about people and I shall refrain myself from doing so. However, I would like to take the chance to encourage those who are facing selfish or bitchy people out there either in the working field or in school.

People aren't flawless, this was what God made us to be. He knows we aren't perfect and so should we. At certain points of time in our lives, we'll face some selfish people who criticize and give negative comments and yet, fail to give constructive feedback. I mean, if you have any ideas to improve the tasks at hand, your comments are greatly welcomed. I'll accept them humbly and if your comments are good, I'll give you the credit you deserve. Many superiors do that as well. Unfortunately, some people will only criticize and refuse to do any work for you, just cause they feel that your ideas are ridiculous to them.

University may seem like the place for "mature" people to attend, where there is a certain level of responsibility within everyone. Well, it's time to wake up from such thought. University isn't that brilliant after all. Some people are still very immature and irresponsible. I'm not going to start pointing fingers, but I must say it's natural for having selfish people to be around. I just feel that such people make the selfless people stand out more. Well, if you ever do meet such people, please refrain from scolding them. It's just not worth the effort. Talk to them nicely and get them to understand where the goals for the project are set at. If they turn a deaf ear to you, it just means they didn't take this project seriously and you can really just don't give a damn to them. You have already done what you can; to ask them to be serious. In the long run, such selfish people will be the ones suffering.

So my advice to all those out there, even my friends who are reading this post, don't let selfish people make your blood boil. HAHAHA :D Just laugh it off and continue with life.

Fashion

I'm back after a tiring weekend! And it's great to be able to sit in my room and recover/recharge myself. The weekend was hardcore but I manage to grab 15 hours of sleep last night just to replenish the hours of sleep I've lost.

Today, I'm gonna touch on Fashion cause of the recent post I saw on G Dragon.

Does Fashion=Style=Model? Well, many people has different says on fashion but I tend to go to the more edgy and boyish side. Most of my dresses, shoes, clothes and even bags are blue and I'm sort of getting sick of it... Le sigh... So I started getting black, white, custard and even green skirts/shorts just to stop wearing an all blue outfit. But even with all my clothes and shoes, I still feel that I lack many stuff.

My friends are commenting on my shoe collections, saying I have far more than necessary. Is that so? I doubt so. I have more than 10 pairs of shoes but I still feel I should get a few more... I'm not a shopaholic, mind you, I'm just interested in getting shoes of different 'genre'. My wardrobe is also packed with clothes that I can't even shut the doors properly but I guess it's cause of all the old clothes my Mum refused to throw away and the 20 over school shirts I have over my 19 years of life.

Enough said, let's see what fashion is to me. Fashion is not about getting into the latest style or to be with the trend. It's about finding what looks good on you and how confident you are in your attire. G Dragon is known by many to be stylish, though sometimes the clothing ensemble he came out with doesn't seem to look good on him. Still, I must say he exudes the confidence and that is enough! I have always been appreciating his fashion and admire him to be One of a Kind. To be himself mostly. His style is far different from other Kpop idols and that is what made him stand out the most. His hair is also changing every now and then and although he seems to like them, I found some hideous. (Sorry to say that!)

The (above) recent photo of G Dragon was a total shock to me! It doesn't match with his age. His long black and white hair seems to make him look older. I didn't mind the short black and white hair her had previously, but this longer version was seriously a 'last warning'. G Dragon comes up with many wacky styles but this was not what I had in mind.

He is daring. He seriously loves to Wow the media with all the hair styles he has come up with. I remembered back in 2008, in 'Haru Haru' his hair style was new and adorable.

The head band on his head was quickly followed by other boy groups (I think G Dragon started the trend). The head band was not the only trend he started, many of G Dragon's style was also imitated by other idol groups. He always lead the fashion scene in Kpop and always has an additional factor to his style. I love how he matches up clothes that people often avoid. 

He is quirky. He is a fashionista. He has his fashion statement. G Dragon has my admiration in his fashion statement and I hope many idols would feel the same way about him.
