Thoughts I witness or hear close friends suffer from relationships. When I hear about their story, I felt really sad for them. A person's character can change completely due to an event that marks the change in them.
2 friends for example.
Friend A.
He was with a girl for many many yrs. Worked hard at his job and saved a hefty 老婆本 of about 40K. This girl then proceed to an air stewardess. They planned to get married at the end of 2006 but one fine day, the girl called him and said that they should break up. Reason is because she found another more suitable guy and she has been with this new boyfriend for about a month already.
The sky went crashing onto him.
How could it be me? Why is it me? You must be joking ! We are getting married remembered? All these thoughts ran through his mind. Thus, this event marks the turning point in his life. He saved for the girl he truly love and would like to spend the rest of his life with her yet this is what he get. And so, he
downpay 20K for a car and decided to mod and mod and mod his car.
His mentality is : " At least I spend money on a car and my car will not abandon me."
Friend B.
He worked as a civil servant. Pay wise was pretty good. Has been with this girl for years. This girl was still studying & he is the one who is paying for her studies while he slog at work. While this girl was studying, she met another guy and decided to make my friend a cuckold. My friend found out, but the girl begged him for another chance. As my friend truly loves this girl, he decides to mend his broken heart & accept her again.
Not long later, this girl broke a devastating news to my friend. " I am pregnant. But its not your child." OH MAN ! Can you imagine ? She once again broke the amended broken heart that was still
recuperating. The girl once again begged him to forgive her. I dont think even a saint will forgive her. My friend then downpay a 12K to buy a car and mod and mod and mod. Same mentality. " At least I spend money on a car and my car will not abandon me."ConclusionIt is the world that came crashing down to them. They were innocent. They can't do anything to salvage the situation. What can they do? Sometimes, I learn from these true life stories and learn to accept people when they are of funny character. I always tell myself it must be an event that turn them to the present person. Hence, let's all try to be more forgiving and understanding... I am no professional on these issues as I am still a learner... It is always good to jot down your thoughts on your blog. Once in a while, look back and think.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------
The colleagues went to Labrador Park for dinner at The Olive Restaurant.
Atmosphere: 8/10 (Provided the restaurant is without us)
Food: 7/10
Service: 6/10
I ordered spagetti with white wine & olive oil with mussels. Gosh. Its just FANNNNTASSTICCC~ The serving is just right. =) Yummy ! We had this thin crust pizza. Gosh, what's pizza hut man ! LOL. And we had the Escargot aka snail baked with butter & garlic. HEAVENLYYYY !
The Chocolate Fondue is a tad disappointing. The Calamari sucks ! More to chewing gum bah.
Total bill : $271 after 10% OUB card discount. GOSH. We had Ice Water leh ! LOL. But still, once in a while, enjoying is a need.
Hearing my colleagues talk about all those posh dinners/ pubs/ chill out place. I came to realise I dont know how to enjoy life at all. I must learn to enjoy life better than now.
