Update!
Ermmm ywcy asked me to update my blog cos' he's bored.
I'm bored too!!!!! I neeed to do lab report on the bloody first week of school!
DANG.
Oh did I mention that I fall sick on the last day of the FIRST week after 8 hours of lecture?
Slept 13 hrs straight after that. I am amazed. Are you?
Anyway, I was reading funkygrad.com just now. The articles there are like damn interesting la.
There is this article : "So what if I dont have a Boyfriend?"
The whole article's quite LONG so let me just extract some POINTS out from there ,which for a moment, I thought I was the one writing it. Ha.
Inane as that question may be, I seem to encounter plenty of queries these days. It seems that the people around me have a bone of contention with regards to my single status. And it's starting to get downright annoying. At first, laughing it off was easy, but after one too many comments like "You don't have a boyfriend? But you are not ugly what." the laughing becomes forced and I seriously (and still am) considering relocating myself to some isolated village in the far reaches of Timbuktu.(<-- HAHAHA)
My friends have jumped on the bandwagon, attempting to play Good Samaritan by inundating me with offers of blind dates and the like. At the risk of sounding ungrateful, I know they mean well but I only have one word to say: NO. And a big fat one at that. I'm sure blind dates can be fun, but for someone who does not enjoy being thrown headfirst into the deep end of a pool, I must say that trying to engage in cordial conversation with a complete stranger is not for me. It's weird , ok, maybe not so weird upon further reflection, that friend who think that it is time for me to have a significant other usually have significant others of their own, and cannot wait to share their new found bliss with others i.e. single, unsuspecting friends like myself. Just to get things straight. I am not a man hater but right now, my life as a swinging single is just about as good as it gets. However, I must admit to feeling a twinge of envy when I see happy couples doing coupley things together. But when I compare that to the freedom of doing what I want, wherever and whenever I want without having to account to anyone apart from myself; I'd choose the latter. Maybe I'm simply not ready for someone, or maybe I haven't found the right person yet. Ok, so I'll wait. There's no hurry. My biological clock has yet to start counting down like a time bomb awaiting detonation. (HAHAHA) The right man will come along and I will happen to be there; even if it means meeting him at some isolated village in the far reaches of Timbuktu.
At least I know I'm not the only one that's experiencing that! Ha.
So friends, I'm fine .. REALLY.
