chris n i r buddies.. n i respect his opinions.. but i feel compelled to respond to his post,Issue # 20: Stable marriage problem.. no offence yea bro? it's all just my opinion.. *winks*

so yeap.. i see his point.. that finding e special someone is tough. then again.. who said anything in life is supposed to be easy right?

but i digress.. it's e listing n ranking part (one of e conditions of e simulation in his lecture) tt i cant agree with.
seriously.. do u guys out there really rank members of e opposite sex? like "if i cant get no1, let me try for no2.." (eeks. reminds me of sorting from programming.)

how can it be that u r looking for "the one".. when u r actually ranking "the ones"? and that e 20 girls(or guys) on e list are all supposed to be potentially "e special someone" all at once? crudely put, sounds like some auctioning system for mating..

but i do see where e rankings n all come from. it's all only practical. i'm a total sucker for e soulmate idea.. but i guess there r prolly just as many ppl out there who think, "yeah sure, love n all it's romantic glory is noble n everything. but hey.. what if i dont manage to find my soulmate in my lifetime? i dont wanna grow old n wrinkled n then die being alone... so e ranking system is only a practical option!" (*gawk* i'm sorry.. haha.. told u i'm a sucker for romance!)

was watching oprah winfrey's show e other day and they were doing a book review on He's Just Not That Into You .. then one wealthy single guy came clean n confessed his method of classifying women he meets in tiers..ranks. n a member of e audience had to overcome her self-denial n come to terms w e fact tt she is tier 5 or smth worse w another guy, who aft one date w her promised another.. but it's been a year n all he does is send mushy msges to her once in a while.. just to keep her as an option open. (ie. leave her hanging there as a backup plan. "if it wont work out w e top 9 ladies, then it's u baby") k, so she's really in delusion. but my gosh. i mean rejection is ok.. but to rank ppl like tt is absolutely degrading. n yeap. she cried on e show..

but tt prolly is an extreme end of e issue here. there has to be a balance.. but not all balances r 50-50. (like in e case of center of mass of a non-uniform object. eeks, i freak myself out.) guess we all r still young n all.. so y's e rush right? dont just go rank ppl all tt quick.. take time to discover urself more.. n hey, u might just find ur soulmate! no need for e tedious system of ranking.. tt wld prolly come when u r speed-dating during some SDU thingy. *grinz*

hmm.. anw..

what happened to e purity of love itself?

but here's not e place for my deepest thoughts to be revealed. haha.. so yeap.. i'll leave it at tt..

it's e wkend again! phew. we all survived.. i guess.. thanks for e encouragment.. *hugz*
realised tt i've some periodic depressive swing.. every tues night i'm down.. (correction, it's every fornight tues.. cos of stupid programming every fornight weds.. stupid stupid progg.. or maybe it's just stupid stupid me. heh. has to be e latter.. fug.. but back to e point now..) by fri i m really happy.. (haha, n i hafta say tt dr ramesh oruganti's friday lectures has a part in this! he has to be e cutest old man i know.. agree joan? haha.. shldve seen e way he snorted while laughing today! :P)

here's a thought i've had all day:
cherish what u haf today.. e people, e life.. every single moment of it.. cos u might not know if they'll still be there tmr..
it's all too easy to take things for granted.

obviously smth happened but thank God it's just a close shave..
so yeah.. seriously.. cherish ur loved ones..

sometimes i wonder if anything i am or do is actually worthwhile. i'm just messing up my pathetic life.
if u who's reading this think it's some desperate attempt at looking miserable n helpless, just screw off.
i'm tired.
but i'm too awake for this to be a nightmare.

had a gd wkend.
n now it's back to another freaking fugging week. blurgh.

runaway train - soul asylum

Runaway train never going back
Wrong way on a one way track
Seems like I should be getting somewhere
Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Can you help me remember how to smile
Make it somehow all seem worthwhile
How on earth did I get so jaded
Life's mystery seems so faded

I can go where no one else can go
I know what no one else knows
Here I am just drownin' in the rain
With a ticket for a runaway train

And Everything seems cut and dry
Day and night, earth and sky
Somehow I just don't believe it

Bought a ticket for a runaway train
Like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never comin' back
Runaway train tearin' up the track
Runaway train burnin' in my veins
Runaway but it always seems the same

i need a real good run...

when the children cry - white lion

Little child
Dry your crying eyes
How can I explain
The fear you feel inside
´cause you were born
Into this evil world
Where man is killing man
and no one knows just why

What have we become
Just look what we have done
All that we destroyed
You must build again

When the children cry
Let them know we tried
´cause when the children sing
Then the new world begins

just one of em moods..
