foot-in-my-mouth

Just moments ago, I made my biggest faux pas ever. There I was with Dee and Cel, having a pleasant conversation… and I just said it! I knew there was something wrong as the words were coming out of my mouth… wahahahahaha! Like somehow my spirit lifted out of my body and I was looking down at myself while I was speaking! I think my face got redder (if there is such a term) than Cels' sisters’ no-load, borrowed Motorola pink phone!!!

I just hope Dee and Cel did not get offended! I swear! No offense meant… uh… guilty much???

Sorry na!!! Luvyah guys!

Loving the Rain

“Ooh, I hear laughter in the rain,
walking hand in hand with the one I love.
Ooh, how I love the rainy days
and the happy way I feel inside”

It’s been raining the whole week last week… and I loved it! (I know, I know, some are suffering because of this… but I can’t help it, I love it when it rains) Unfortunately though, I wasn’t able to enjoy it because I was stuck in a training the whole week. What made it worse, I had to take a certification exam which I am not too confident about now that I think about it. I felt so relieved after the exam and I was more than ready to take on the weekend. Especially since weekend=dates with turon!

Our date started off quite late… guess who was late? Weeeeell, we both were, he was late but I was even more late… hehehe! There is something about the rain that makes people just want to curl up in bed and listen to Harry Potter… uh… Or was that just me? :)

one year!

Oh my! It’s August already! Happy anniversary to my blog! Wheee!

Feminist Freya

It’s turon’s birthday today… YEY!

Anyway, we were walking in a mall and there was a couple a few steps ahead of us. It seemed like they were having a fight while walking… and to confirm my suspicion I saw the girl kinda slap the guy… (haha! Sorry I like to be well informed of what’s happening in my surroundings). Moving on, it came as a shock but if you think about it, it is acceptable... But to my horror, the guy hit the girl in the face! Then the girl slapped him again, then the guy hit him again!!! This happened a couple of times more, until the girl gave in and let the guy drape his arm around her. We passed by a comfort room and the girl made a beeline for it and when she turned I saw that she was already crying… =(

I was really bothered by the scene that we had just witnessed. I mean, we see it in the movies a lot, but when you see it in real life… I cannot believe what I was seeing, I am absolutely, 100% sure that when they do get married (if they are not yet in fact married) she will be a battered wife. I cannot think of a valid enough reason for him to hit her in the face… several times… in public! What an a@#hole! In my mind, I was thinking of ways to tell him off and humiliate him for what he was doing. After maybe an hour of more walking, turon noticed that I was still bothered… yeah for some reason, what we saw awoken the feminist/activist side of me. I felt pity for that girl… I mean I’m sure that since they are a couple, that she loves that guy. We come to a point that we get so involved that we just can’t reason with our hearts. How can you stop loving a guy because he hit you?

It is quite easy to say that as modern day women, we won’t let anybody especially men to step all over us, but when you put love as a factor, all reason seem to fly out of the window. Yes, we all come to a point when we get fed up with all that but even so, we accept pain first before we leave. *sigh*

I was thinking to myself that I won’t let that happen to me. EVER! But I can never be so sure. The easiest thing that we can do is to hope that we choose the right boyfriend or husband or partner and even hope more that they don’t have a mind as small as a fly to do such a thing.
