Days of the week
Love fridays most.
For obvious reasons, it's the sign of the coming of the weekends, yet not officially the weekend. Best way to describe my feelings on friday - High School Musical "BREAKING FREE"
Hate Sundays.
It's the weekend, I know. But it signals an end. To be exact, it's a love hate relationship for Sunday.
Pretty much sums up my life, given that nothing much happens in the rest of the week except if something heart pounding comes along, which isn't quite what I'm looking for.
Don't be mistaken, I'm totally fine with the way it is now.
It's official. I'M Noob & it's okay
I am left behind in the race for materialism. I am not enslaven to brands and trends; in fact these are meaningless without Men.
Am I pressurised then to deny my ignorance and feign my knowledge - yes. The power of social norms never fail us. Obscurity was the most i felt during a lunch session which was in itself enslaved to brands, brands, and oh wait, the signs of hedonism taking its toll.

For the better
If life is about making choices, I am glad this time someone else's choice has opened for me a door to new opportunities and a path I never foresee myself walking in. Life has been and will be from now free from prejudgment, and perhaps away from the idea of "counting chickens before it hatches". I have always thought I'll prefer to do something I have studied for 4 years, thinking it is only right that I maximise my knowledge earned and make everything I have gathered worthwhile. But things didn't turn out the way I thought, new routes have been presented to me, and fortunately for me, it has given me an eye-opening experience which has also broaden my perspectives, my social skills and expertise. I am proud that environmental pressure and circumstances have forced me out of my comfort zone, threw me into the scary sea and left me to fend for my own survival, that I felt I took a great leap forward and grow exponentially in a short span of 2 months. Fellow newbies are being nurtured comfortably with ample time to spare, and for me, that wasn't something I feel jealous of, but something I was glad I wasn't in.
Life is not always about making easy choices, it is about choosing the difficult ones, then challenge and conquer.

because small things matter

It is a little late when I decide to start this blog, but it was also at this time when I believe that blogging will benefit me in the long run. There have been many instances where my tiny brain was so overwhelmed with thoughts and feelings that it was on the verge of explosion, regardless whether they are positively or negatively charged. Bottled feelings, as most said, aren't exactly healthy. Then I chanced upon several of my friends' (both real and virtual) blogs and realised that it could be a perfect avenue to unleash and reflect upon all these fragments of memory, emotions and thoughts.
My mystery: why do some people choose to display all their unhappiness, anger and frustration externally, and transfer them to the lovely people around. Many a times, a simple smile to the people you communicate with makes the cold world seemed much more live-able. In Singapore, it is difficult to see a smile on one's face, it is even more rare to have one to smile to you. This clearly reflects why she is ranked high in the unhappiness index. I wonder...is it really that demanding for one to give even the slightest smile or warmth to the people around. Perhaps, we are all just too obsessed with personal achievements and plagued by the underlying jealousy and competition in this 'dog-eat-dog' country.
about your site
Flavours of Life will be where I document some of those human mysteries I observe in my surroundings which most choose to ignore. It can be extremely interesting to stop, observe and reflect on them because you may be surprised by the sort of enlightenment one can gather from them. It is also here where I seek mental relaxation as it provides me with an escapism from the harsh reality. I will also use this space to immerse in my obsession for entertainment (Well, I can't quite move away from this since it is one of my main source of virtual happiness)
