Things you can do without


For you ladies out there.

Have you ever got caught up in a state?
I am sure you have.
Awful isn't.

For example, you got all dressed up for some event.
Went there with your male best friend.
Then out of no where he commented that his mate's girlfriend is waaay better looking than you.

Thought that he was just teasing you, you asked him back.
To which he confirmed that he is not kidding.

But you did not deny what he said.

Coz deep down you know that is the truth anyway.
Everybody at the table knew that.
The world knows that.

That's not the point of this story.

What bugs you is that why on God's earth he needs to remind you of that.

Okay let's talk about something more important & substantial in this life.

Hmm like how to prognosticate a man with an unstable angina using the TIMI score.

Prognosticate!!! Big word alert! Loved it when I have to google for the meaning.

Dottie - I agree with you!I wish I can use such a big word and impress people. I know the time will come (how optimistic I am)

I have encountered this situation lots and lots of time though it does not go exactly the same as your story. People use to compare my sister (who is super short and skinny) with me (which obviously the opposite). and people will always go like 'owh ingat yang adik ni kakak, sebab lebih besar'. For the love of God, why in the world should you say that? What have I done to you, that make you want to insult me that way. I have feelings you know and I did not ask to be taller and bigger than my sister. It's a gift from God.Damn it you people!~ (now i'm getting emotional)

Moral of the story: Never go out with a guy who cut his cheek to spite his face.

DwD: I thought you knew all the words in a dictionary :P

orang sesat: I know the feeling. Welcome to the club of ordinary gentlemen.

Andrea: I don't see how the proverb fits into my story. But then again i'm not a smart guy.

frankly + psychologically, that's how guys like to compliment...but that doesnt mean that they dont like you (i.e the partner )...maybe asking you to change for the better kot ?!.
....hmm, on 2nd thought, what's the use of love if someone cannot accept you for what you are ??


(back to the Tag Heuer photo)....well, sometimes we NEED some (if not all) the little luxuries in life, to award ourselves of our endless daily work!!

1: do i know you from somewhere? There is something familiar about you.

Should the comparison arise, take it as a call for a change, not because of the compliment (or otherwise) but for a much better self. At first, I can't take it when comparing me with others, but then after a while, I realised that sometimes, the comparison doesn't mean to burden me etc, but more to making me realise of some hard facts. In the end, it's for the better me.

After all, learning is a lifetime process.

But 'you' look good in that ads. :-)

zackara, may I say that I salute you for you are an absolute optimist..but again, if the comparison is about something you can change,i.e:exam grades, i can totally relate to what you said...but comparing sizes, she's tall, she's short, she's fat (no!I'm not fat, I just happen to have an abnormally large frame)...these are the things that cannot be changed no matter how badly I wanted it to change..Now, you understand the dilemma here right?

zackzara said...

Orang sesat, thanks for pointing it out. :)

Well, for some hard facts that we can't change overnight, we still can change our perception albeit it might not happen overnight especially when it might incriminate our heart & soul due to the unjust comparison..no?

Accepting oneself is important. That's what I meant by change for a better you.
I know u are one beautiful soul, orang sesat. Now..don't sesat2 ok..:p
