Cliques

By On · 45 Comments · In Uncategorized
You know in school, when you were in kindergarten everybody was friends. Wasn’t that nice? People didn’t care what family you were from, how you behaved, or whatever. Kids just wanted to be friends and play with one another. Then you hit Primary school and oh my, things change, you find that friends start to disperse and they suddenly huddle to one group. They want to either be called the happening / popular / exciting group or there will be the shunned ones / outcasts / the freaks. Of course you’ll have those right down smack in the middle who really can’t be bothered at all and they shall be called the neutrals neither overly popular nor unwanted in groups. The curse of Cliques.

Cliques

btw this is take from the STCharles Journal

Not to be mistaken with Cliniques ^_P You know it really doesn’t matter what age or generation you are in. Cliques always seem to exist. You’d think that once you are out of school the whole ridiculous thing of group cliques would end and you can go back to being like how it was in kindergarten, where everyone is on the same plane, they are all just trying to get by and having some fun time. But no! Instead you find yourself with more cliques all over the place. Some cliques that will tend to talk to much, the cliques that you find are just not your cup of tea, the cliques that are too ladeeda in the clouds for you, the cliques that are overly intelligent, the cliques that just plain well weird, the cliques that are maybe fun to be with, the cliques that make sense and the cliques that are finally just like you. :aya: So many cliques, and so hard to fit yourself in all. But really I find cliques so dumb and childish. Whats wrong with everyone just getting along, and being friendly. Sure you don’t have to gel, talk and give everyone your attention cause that won’t be feasibly possible. But suddenly changing your whole personality when you are out of your clique… Oouuuooch. Yeah I’m anti-conflict and anti-clique. I don’t care what group one considers themselves in. Cliques …bleh

K.I.S.S.

By On · 2 Comments · In Uncategorized
Keep It Simple and Sweet. Keep It Simple and Short. Keep It Simple Stupid! Those are the main three things of how you would give the full version for K.I.S.S. Keeping things simple is always a great idea. I often make the mistake of sometimes doing things over the top, over exaggerating something, or just even in my design. I would want to shove so many things into something that I forget what my main purpose of designing something is even for. Or even maybe when it comes to talking, one can ramble on and on about something. When what they should be doing is just keeping it nice and short. Straight to the point and not go over flamboyant. The simplest things are the best things. Even when giving a gift, a small thing like a flower from the ground (preferably a live one of course and not one thats left on the road! ) or even a card or an sms to say something nice to another person, perks somebody up or tells them you care. So yes.. K.I.S.S people!

Crushing In a Relationship

By On · 383 Comments · In Uncategorized
I have a story. I have this friend of mine in school, whom I shall name as Yowanda (don’t ask me why I picked this name but I did, because every other name that came to my head was too close to a real person). This was years ago, and what happened was she got into a relationship with a guy, Jerry. They were doing very well and were still together even after she had gone on down to Australia to study, right after school. He was in Australis with her for a while then he came back to Malaysia because of work commitments. After some time being in Australia, Yowanda, started to feel a bit lonely. I don’t exactly know what transpired during the period they were apart, but she started to sway a little. There was a guy in her class… a senior i think, we’ll call him Matt. Matt was apparently there for her a lot when she was feeling down and lonely in a foreign country. She had study periods with him and even allowed herself to get close to him. Later in the year, she came home, but she still acted like everything was cool with her and Jerry, even though she confessed to us, she has a mind to break it off because of this new guy. Basically she started developing a crush on this new guy, since she was away from Jerry.
Her reasoning was, I was just very lonely, I needed someone, he was there for me. I had someone to talk to, to keep me company. He understood me.
See this is something I shall never get. When you are with somebody, a real relationship that has gone on for a good year or more, why do some people think that it’s only meant to be a fling? That it’s not meant to be anything serious? When you are in a relationship, sure they will be tough times and some lonely moments where both side may no get the other, but don’t you still love one another? I don’t get it. The best part is when others asked Yowanda, why does she still stick with Jerry, she also says that she loves him. What?????? You can actually utter out by saying, “I love Him, therefore I’m sticking with him”, when all the while you are breaking another persons heart? Why not then end the misery and go find yourself with the other guy. Don’t go hanging on to both as if there’s  backup. There is no backup in relationships!! How some people could ever say to their partner “I Love You” then turn around and do the exact opposite, by starting to crush on another person. For males and females alike, when you are in a relationship, don’t you ever dare say those three words “I Love You” if you are willing to cheat on your partner. I don’t believe it’s in the spur of the moment, I don’t believe that the “I Love You’s” can be turned on and off. It’s an ongoing process and that’s what makes a relationship with another so special. Say your “I love You” properly. Don’t force it. Don’t cheat it.

Money BURN money!

Money is the root of all evil. Or so I heard. And for the most of it, I think it’s true! Why do I say that? What makes a man fight for his life to survive? What drives a man to want to bother getting up everyday? What is the biggest cause for fights may they be economical, political or social situations? What makes a person tick for the rest of their entire life? What causes the whole world to be in utter chaos, when shares go tumbling down?

Money should just be burnt, so that we won’t be troubled by it. :S I am a bit tired, how all people are ever trying to do in their life is for the sake of money. Granted I shall admit that I have been born with a bronze spoon in my mouth. But what have you been trained in school to do ultimately? The nice version of this is by saying “Oh it’s so you can become a useful person to society”. What they actually mean is “To teach how you to one day become a person that can make money.. doesn’t matter how, you’re just suppose to make money so you can carry on living.” Everything is for the sake of making money and why so? Because without money, you can’t darn well survive. Take for example how we blog. When was the last time we blog for the sole purpose that is the freedom of speech. That it is the place where we aren’t easily touched and we the individual can have a sport where we can express thoughts in an open manner. When was the last time, bloggers stood by with one another for the sake of doing some sort of good out there? Yeah ok there is the whole BloggersUnite thing. That’s great…. But of late all I have been seeing are blogs that are just trying to leverage to make sure that they have enough traffic so that the likelihood of ads being click is higher. Asking some of you out there, who are staying in the same country as me…how many times have you asked our Nuffnang, Advertlets, GrabmyAds and whatever other advertising medium out there “Hey where are my ads? Can ya bring more in?”. If the ads come in, they come in. It is no secret the whole point why we all joined Ad Services is because we wanted to make some extra cash. I’m digressing on the fact, that people do stuff for the sake of money these days. The sucky reality is that you can’t do anything when you don’t have money. People I find sometimes are a slave to money, because it is either they do not have enough to sustain them or they always want more of it. Ooo money makes the world go round. Sigh everything is a business, you can’t run from it. Nothing is ever really for the sake of doing it because it can possibly be fun. I feel like such a prude saying all this. Next thing you know a few posts from now I’m going to sound hypocritical-if I end up talking about how to drive more traffic into a site or how one can earn more money with their blog or whatever. And why would I write something like that in contrast to this post? Because I have to sink to the thing people double my age love to call “Reality” and think of ways how to make a living so that I can sustain me sitting up right on a chair and not faint from lack of food… Me: Hey money! Money: Hey you! Did you know that you can see more of me if…. Me: Bite ME!

Deciphering the Female Talk

By On · Leave a Comment · In Uncategorized
had this conversation a while back with my boy and this is was his dilemma…“I don’t understand girls! They don’t mean what they say! Make some sense, why must they say one thing and then mean an entirely different thing. Like us guys, we just go straight to the point, if we say we don’t want it that way, we don’t want it! It ain’t rocket science.” As I type this I can’t help but also laugh. For some girls, the ones with pride that is, they shall say, well why are the guys so ‘COMPLICATED’ why can’t you just try to get us and not be so straight forward. ……jiro.gif I know i know.. it sounds liek the girls can’t make up their mind. So i’ll break it down as much as I can… and I’m not going to say it related to most girls, but lets see how far some are true. Phrase 1 : GO AWAY! When a girl tells you to go away, there are two meanings so you have to be smart to figure out which one it is. The first one means, to FIX IT! fix whatever it is you have just done wrong. Say you said something that is not pleasing to her ears, and she tells you to GO AWAY. Fix it, say something that she would prefer to hear you say.
E.g. She: Sweetie what do you want to do later on today? He: Wow… that chikado is hot! She: ……… He: Dont’ you think so? She: GO AWAY! He: “??” Why what did I say??

Hellooo!! What do you think you said? How to fix it? Ignore what you have just said and ask her to repeat her question or statement and actually concentrate on answering the blasted question! The second thing it could mean. “GO AWAY!” Literally means GO AWAY! Phrase 2 : What Do You Think? When a girl asks for your opinion please please say something either positive or give her a really good explanation. I’ll be frank, my species tends to act a lot on our emotional side half the time. Which is why, if you want to avoid some sort of argument. Please, practice your skills in debating and learn how to give a good rebuttle. Cause us girls, will give all sorts of excuses how you are no uinderstanding, uncaring.. and all the other “uns” out there, if you say something negative. We’re fragile creatures, so hearing a nice thing would always be a plus.
E.g. She: Sweetie…do you think it’s better to have the white or blue? He: How bout neither? Both of them are not very nice She: Really??? But I already got them… He: Well who asked you to buy them? She: ……..I thought that I could look sweet, like how you want me to be…
Sigh the poor dear, have a heart dear boys and if you want your girls to look like either some super sweet girl next door or some hot looking thing like Megan Fox… which is another argument of mine altogether. Please motivate her a bit. Here’s the thing with girls, they like to dress up, no denying that, they like to look good because media and darn boyfriends tell them that they want their girls to be looking good. So……. take a guess what prescription I shall write down. BE NICE! You know what to do…. if you can’t even after that explanation and that example….. sigh I have no hope for mankind. kaos-whiteusagi02.gif KNock knock anyone home?? :P
