Planning Well & Playing Safe?

For quite some time that I did not update anything on the blog.... ( Class started and I am busy)

Recently I came across a trailer about a story that sould be very well known to the group of peeps that like "The Fault in Our Stars". This story based on a novel written by John Green, "Paper Town".

Well I did some digging, Paper town... technically it means a place/town that does not exist but is put in maps as a way to protect each copy right. [ If you copy the maps completely, you ended up with the same paper town that obviously does not exist, thus prove that you COPY ]

Paper Town actually has quite a few concepts behind it...but the reason I write about this is not because of the love, the imagination of this perfect girl, the fake/real idea... I wanted to write about it because of a sentence I heard over the trailer: "Take a risk, stop planning so safe" 

It got me thinking, what adventerous things that I have done to tell others, to make my heart beat, to maky my life interesting? I realized not much.... We have been taught since we were young that we have to obey rules and regulations to fit in to any circles in the society; to maintain peace and harmony. I do agree that rules and regulations are necessary to keep the world in order, but however I also think we are so constructed in the box that we are starting to blend in too much and lose individuality. 

To be honest, things in real world are getting fake and we are actually happy about it! The actress and actors we adore so much, sometimes deep down we know that they are acting or pretending to be someone that we will like; but we just never want to admit that. The friends around us, we call them friends while actually they are just faking to be friendly and to like you. We do not want to be outcast so we try hard to ignore what's real and embrace what's fake. That is the underlying rule on the street, the 'Social Rule'. 

As individual, we  do not have the courage to stand out. We are obliged to the enactments made and to the social obligations. Looking from the big picture, this is actually the right situation to be in, because there cannot be peace and harmony when people are not working and tolerating each other due to strong individuality. 

But that is not my final conclusion. I believe that everyone deserve to go out of the frame a little once in a while. To feel like you actually live and you actually do something that make you feel... YOU. I am lucky I have Diana by my side; whenever I decide to do something crazy or inaproppriate, I know someone is going to be punished together with me. That make me feel better and more courageous. 

So my final thought is... we should find a buddy, and do something spontaneous without planning. 

TEEHEE...... just some random thoughts, sorry for wasting your precious time and living moements. =D

P.S: Diana, you are in a lot of troubles next time we meet.

It's Time... :(

Once again, it is time for me to leave. I have to go back to England, as I have exams next month T T It seems like just yesterday that I was looking forward so eagerly to return to Asia. Time really does fly past when you are enjoying yourself! Like Evon, I am looking forward to the near future, the joyous occassion of when I once again return. Until then, I shall be writing about my adventures in England :) 

I shall miss the food so much haha and I will of course miss my family & relatives, and my dearest bestie <3 

I took this picture when I went to Melaka last week. This is the lovely sunset view from Evon's place :)

Who is thy Bestfriend? 6 signs!

Today I woke up with the knowledge of "Neighbour Test" running through my mind. It's weird as I have study this a fair amount period of time ago ( I am not the typical student that always study and have the knowledge lock in), so I took it as universe giving me sign for something to write about.

The Neighbour Test is a test/rule to find out who has the duty of care towards your physical injury or property damage. It is a topic to be covered on the negligence field in the legal world. But for today, since my joined blog with Diana mainly focused on friendship, it inspired me to write about Best Friend Test. (Which is similar to the neighbour in Neighbour Test, your Best Friend should have the duty of care over your pain and scars)

We often speak of someone as our Best Friend but I realized that not everyone has a clear perspective and idea of the definiton, Best Friend/Bestie. A very clear example from my life is that a playmate of mine ( They are like friends, but not in need, instead exist for fun and play time) told me that she and some other girls are best friend, always hanging out. On the other hand, the girls told a different story saying that they just went out a few times, not even close friend. 

So how should we know exactly who is our Best Friend? For today, I shall write from my experiences (Duh). The most basic 5 signs she must pass. 

Best Friend Test: (Applicable for Girls only, sorry guys...)

1. She buy you food.

A friend is never a friend if she never once buy you food. Best Friends always offer their food to you.

2. She always nail it when buying presents for you. 

Your Best Friend should know either what you need or what you  like. She will buy you the gifts you or you will like the gift because of her. (Best Friend Power!)

3. She has strong influence over you, vice versa.

I like hello kitty and she is starting to dig it too. I like pink and she think pink is pretty. She like owl and I am starting to dig owl. She like purple, I think is pretty. She call someone a B*tch, I will think so too (vice versa). 

4. She can change in front of you. 

You in your birthday suit should be a very intimate and private experience ( It should......emmhmm). But it seems like your best friend is such a huge part of your life, she have invaded your space so you kinda just flash it even if she is there. (vice versa)

5.  Her Friends and Family know your existance as her bestie. 

Friendship sometimes stretch across the globe, you guys not necessarily live in the same city or study/work within the same institution. So she must have peeps out of your circle, but that do not stop those peeps from knowing you. If she is truly your best friend, she must have mentioned quite often to others (either silly stories/ awesome things/ random stuffs of you.) This is actually the most important principle, if she does not tell others or recognize you in front of others as her bestie, most probably you guys are not true friends.

To add on:
6. You ask each other for advice and opinions

Your bestie's advice and opinions are one of the most important things in your life! If it is not, or if you think that your bestie does not give good advice, then.. hmm... that's not a good sign! To think about it, I pretty much always ask Evon for her advice and opinions. I have asked her about important things: FASHION :P and about other things, such as dating and feelings, and food, etc etc.

Home alone again T^T

It was quite lonely when I returned to my place at Melaka without having my devilish sis by my side. The place seems empty. There was no longer the sound of the videos she watched through my laptop and her stuffs that were lying all round my place - gone. I have to be honest, I need to on my laptop and play random videos from youtube just so my place wouldn't be so quiet. 

The feelings were not the same. I went out with Megan (the kind friend that brought us around when Diana was still here), with a group of friends and even to a late night movie, I still feel kinda lonely. However I reminded myself that she will be back soon in a few months time. I decided to pick myself up and continue my normal routine till she re-visit =D

I am not quite sure what is she doing, but I am looking far way to the happy tommorow.
