Inane and Inept

I hate it when people come to my house with an ulterior motive, such as asking my mum for handouts. And hello, it is not even a one-time off thg..

It is like, some people in my family, just expect help and expect my mum to give it.

I know my mum is a good and generous person, a good mother, daughter, friend, wife, sister.. but so? Do they always have to take advantage like that?

And i know they do not just visit out of goodwill, out of "concern" for my mum. It's simply asking for handout lor, and I LOOK DOWN ON THEM, especially when it's a man.

If my mum can survive and bring up her 3 daughters on her pay, i don't see why these people can't.

No money, strict wife, blah blah blah reason, then just ask for handout. very easy lor. I despise it.

Even for myself, i dun even ask my mum to give me money just cos i'm not working. Becos that is my problem. And i should not even be asking for money at this age. What more these so-called elders?

As i grow older, i become more sure of what i wanna, and i definitely do not want to land in a marriage where my husband would be depending on me financially.

Sad to say, i'm surrounded by women who are definitely more financially capable than men. Or then, their men in the families actually look after the families.

My motivation in staying single is growing stronger by the way. Dun come and tell me it's law of nature to find a partner. IS it law of nature for a man to ask a woman for a handout? Is it law of nature to expect the woman to provide for the family?

I'll much rather take care of myself in that sense.

Not forgetting my mum of cos. She had better lead a better nextlife else there's seriously no more laws of nature in this universe.

Boiling fucking mad but gonna channel these energies to looking for a good-paid job that'll enable me to live out my dreams.

Just so that my blog doesn't look so dead...

...not that i think there are still people checking here.. but I do like my outlet for writing every now and then. Even though there's Facebook to connect with the world out there, you just can't replace the satisfaction of writing with it. Anw Facebook is more like a social networking place, to know people how in you are, which places u been to, but don't exactly offer you a place to write. (i think the "Notes" tab is pretty redundant, so to speak)

I seriously been reliving those days when i was on a break from uni, and i'm pretty glad i made this decision to take a break. Was asked today if my morale is low or am i panicky from lack of response from job hunt. Panicky.. only abit of cos. Finance still impt mah. But morale not low, cos i think the waiting period is expected. If some beings stop making me feel guilty (haiz) or useless, i can honestly say that i really am enjoying this break.

So pics! with the ohsofab LX3! (thanks to ying!)




a late night movie and snack @ Coffee Bean's with sistaz.. oooh hot chocolate with marshmallows floating on top! So my fave season!



mum's company walkathon for charity.. one of the few exercises done in my break. i shd really get my fatass moving like some swimming but its not moving!! Motivations!!



Yinghui's gothic-mystery-cute themed wedding.. caught up with some SC gals and it was a great wedding lunch overall.


This is my laptop's wallpaper now! it's so hard to find nice pics of the Cullen family cos the focus is always on Edward, whom i dun think is the handsomest anyway. Carlisle is the most handsome (his name is so roll-the-tongue sexy too, think i'll name my future-son-if-i-have-one Carlisle) and Alice is the prettiest. Though in this pic, everyone looks changed (new look for new series?) and Carlisle dun actually look as good in dark hair as he did in blonde, and Alice definitely suits short hair than long locks, I still like the overall look of this pic. Everyone looks so good, and i love the Victorian regal elegance of the setting. And Jasper actually looks pretty hot here. Anw i just prefer the Cullen clan's pic to the rest of the promo pics they have for New Moon.

On the subject of New Moon the movie, on first impression, it's really not v good (in my opinion, i find it the boringest book cos i cannot get past Bella's depression for most of the book) and i totally dislike her char in the movie, hesitant and ditching her best friend once her vamp bf is back. DUNCH LIKE. i know there's supposed to be alot of gals who can relate to her character but sorry i'm not on her camp. Plus I am defly on Team Jacob, i love his childish simple naivety and forthright manner, not to mention those muscles! *swoons*

However, when i spent time reflecting on the movie, gotta admit, there's just a draw about the whole Twilight saga (that's generating alot of third-rate spin-offs: was rolling my eyes at this series of novels whh is totally just trying too hard to jump on the twilight bandwagon) that pulls you in, whether it's the longing that's so intense between the characters that just bounces off the screen at you, or the mystical legends that brings you down those childhood lanes of dragons, princes, princesses and monsters, or the simple love story that just exists so simply it's too good to be true, it just draws you in deeper and forces you to breathe and dream Twilight.

So anyway, it got me reading Eclipse and i cannot wait for the movie to come out end-june 2010!!

Just a fun project i kickstarted to clear clothes and fill my boring dayz. hehz. Do ask plus-size friends to support!

Lastly, it's gonna be Xmas soon! i'm certainly wishing the weather would turn cold enough for me to have the excuse to buy thigh boots and patterned stockings. I have already seen some i like on a plus-size site, but i shd curb myself plus the weather in Sg just dun permit. The most i can buy is ankle boots.

And i wanna a mini xmas tree like the pic! just sth small and cute on my desk. i do love xmas trees and nv had one in my entire life, so this would be cool. wondering if Daiso has?
