Relationship Q Answered...

After seeing my previous post, many KPO frenz started bombarding me wif Qs like “Are u getting married soon?” or “Who’s the lucky gal?”… When I started accusing them of being kpo, they all came up wif the same old “I am juz being concerned as a fren” reason. Aiyo… pls loh… kpo juz admit loh… haha… thanx so much for ur “concern” lehz…

Actually… to tell the truth… I am not even sure myself wat type of status I am in rite now… Depending on wat Q u asked, my answers can be contradictory n confusing… If u ask me whether I am currently in a r/s, I am… but if u ask me whether she’s THE ONE, then definitely NO…

Before u start accusing me of being a lying cheating bastard playing wif some gal’s feelings, let me finish my words 1st… I AM NOT… in fact, SHE is beside me rite now, watching me type tis entry… I can sense the “ !!! ” going on in ur minds… haha…

WE belong to 2 entirely different worlds… I am a chinese teacher while SHE is a “potato”… SHE is an enthusiast in the arts while I am a retard, SHE goes to orchestra performances n plays while the onli form of art I am interested in is PORN… haha… SHE’s pretty, hardworking n independent… I am ugly, lazy n a sloth… the list goes on n on… then how we end up together? Maybe it’s fate… or juz the theory of “opposites attract” like magnets…

WE have NO FUTURE together… sounds harsh but true… I know tat… SHE knows tat… but WE are both still so calm n cool abt it… haha… Our differences aside, the MAIN problem is tat I am a family man, my dream is to haf my own family n kids (pls refer to previous post for more details) but SHE… well… dun really haf faith in marriage n SHE most certainly dun plan to haf kids… pls dun misunderstand… I am not blaming her or anything… everyone has their own beliefs n way of life… there’s no so-called right or wrong… it’s juz tat maybe WE are not fated to be meant for each other…

Strange… I tink WE are supposed to feel sad or something… but WE are still laffing n teasing each other… maybe it’s becoz WE have tis common understanding btw us… not many couples can handle things as calmly as the 2 of us in tis situation… hmm… now I finally see where WE are compatible… maybe WE are both crazy… hahaha…

Finally, all u kpo ppl n “concerned” frenz out there… to pacify ur ferocious curiosity n answer ur constant nagging Qs abt my personal love life…

Conclusion: I am currently in a r/s which I would describe as WEIRD, judging by normal standards, becoz WE are both waiting for either 1 of us (or beta both of us) to find some1 new… haha… Pls dun judge or criticize our r/s (like it’s a joke or WE are not serious or anything lidat) coz 1) It’s unfair coz u dun understand us or know wat WE are tinking… I can assure u WE are both being beri mature n serious 2) If u cun accept wat u are reading here, or tink our r/s is against ur beliefs or moral values… then too bad, I offer no apologies… diff ppl haf diff beliefs, diff values, diff ways of dealing wif things… u juz haf to realize n accept tis fact of life… 3) Most Importantly… it really is none of ur biz so dun bother…

Damn long post… I have revealed a lot… more than wat a scorpio would reveal on normal days… so pls pls pls… from now on, no more Qs abt my personal love life… all my “concerned” frenz out there…

A Miser... Me?

Took my Advanced Theory Test on Thursday… FAILED AGAIN… haiz… sianz… 2nd time fail liao… both times no time to study… waste my money… wonder when I can haf my own car… actually I nv really planned to buy a car… to me a car is a liability, not an asset… well… I am not going to go into the financial management theories here… would become a bloody long post… so those who are interested, can qing3 jiao4 me if we mit up… Cab fares are UP… haf to re-evaluate my transport budget… not tat I take cab beri often… but hey… every cent counts…

I know I sound like a miser… maybe many of u tink I am a miser… well… I admit in some aspects, I am one… but overall, NO… I juz prefer to spend my money on things tat make me happy… for example, I spend ALOT on food, traveling and… gals… haha… oops… well… I juz feel it’s natural for a guy to pamper n dote on a gal in a r/s, physically, emotionally, even financially… as long as it’s within my capabilities… of course I dun mean giving the gal money… but a gift or a nicely-planned surprise like a trip once in a while wun hurt…

I am still saving up for my future… marriage, kids, providing for my parents etc… so for my future’s sake, I am willing to suffer abit now… I keep wearing the same old clothes… seldom buy new ones… ppl keep suaning me… it’s ok… I try to walk as much as possible for places within walking distance to cut down on transport costs… I haf to bear wif the hot sun or sometimes rain… it’s oso ok… I look around for cheap bargains n compare prices when I buy stuff… I will most likely give up on an item which is not cheap, even thou I like it VERY MUCH… some ppl say I behave like an auntie, others tink I am juz pure cheapskate… nv mind… for my future, I am willing to bear wif all these… whenever I am feeling down wif all the sarcasm around me, I juz start imagining my future… a beautiful wife wif two kids (1 boy 1 girl)… everything well-provided for… my parents enjoying their retirement… hmm… the feeling is good… gives me the strength to carry on…

Attachment Update !

Update !!! 3 weeks of my attachment passed… 2 more weeks to go… I expect the next 2 weeks to be hectic coz of all the formal observations n grading so haf to really plan my lessons… haiz… sianz… I am currently teaching a P2 class n a P5 class… Kids nowadays are so different from last time liao… Rude, lazy n bochup… I seriously tink there’s a BIG problem wif our education system… but haiz… nothing much I can do… me juz a teacher… I dun set the policies around here… Looking forward to the 1-week holiday after the attachment… really nid a break…

Oh ya… juz got my pay… so happy… July is a great month for my finances… Salary + Pay Increment + ½ Month Bonus + $220 Incentive… I am not here to flaunt my wealth or haolian or anything lidat… I am juz happy… anyway nothing to haolian abt… overall it’s still less than wat my uni grad frenz earn on normal days… but I really totally 4got abt the pay increment so it’s abit of a nice surprise for me… wat really thrills me is tat now I can go to BOTH Korea n Hong Kong at the end of the year… * clap clap clap *

Juz received another “bomb” today… nono… dun worry… it’s nothing like the one they dug up in Toa Payoh… juz a wedding invitation… from my ex-gf… … … … really mixed feelings here… I am happy for her of course… but I am juz pondering over whether I should go attend… feels weird… on 1 hand I tink I shld da4 da4 fang1 fang1 n go since she sincerely invited me… but on the other hand we haf so many common frenz who will be there so I tink the situation will feel quite awkward if I show up… hmm… maybe I can juz send her an angbao or a gift n say I haf something on tat day… aiya… duno lah… heart so luan4…
