what do YOU want

I was tuning into pilihan, my everyday-to-work routine, when DJ Izan was on air asking singletons "what do you look for in a girl/guy?" Many called in and in fact it was the girls who called in to answer. Funny, witty and hilarous.

"I want to find someone who can make me laugh"
"I'm attached now but i was single before. can i take part to answer your question?"
"I am looking for someone kind, romantic and thoughtful"
and etc.

It got me into deep thinking...Does love really conquers all? What happens to the materialistic options like looking for someone who could provide them with a better future? Could these callers be too young or naive to understand the importance of good financial future that they are blinded by searching for true love to notice it?

I'm turning 26 end of the year. 10 years ago I was young and full of innocence, just like these callers. I had exactly the same thought like them until i found my love 5yrs 11mths ago. My love and I went through (3/4) bucket full of happiness and love...(1/4) bucket of tears and sorrow. And all of that, we only began to grow up this year. This years' February made me realise how important it is to have savings and securing a good career.

I almost cried my heart out thinking of the bleak future we have but what can we really do. What was done couldn't be undone now. All we could is to blame it on our spendthrift yesteryears and make sure we don't repeat these mistakes again in the coming future. But how much years have we got left to save before we get married and have children to feed and educate them and so forth...?

Life is really playing tricks on us.
Life is too short to earn big bucks.

The Bruneian Blogging Community

I didn't know my country has its own blogging community until i stumbled upon their site just recently. Well, I am proud to say i am now member of the Bruneian Blogging Community !

What do you know for sure?

I always belive that Life is too profound to be understood even when you think you know what you know. Not many knows for sure what they think is real or right and I am one of them. Perhaps you think you know what it is but do you think you really know what it is? I'm always doubtful when I have to answer a tricky question. Often times, i'll came up with a gazillion answers to just one question. Ok maybe not gazillion but it was a lot to just one question being asked.

People often says i'm asking stupid questions when i asked them to elaborate the details. Because of that, i thought maybe i am stupid for asking a silly question. But on the otherhand, maybe i'm not stupid as they claimed to be. Maybe I have a mature mind that works like no others or maybe i'm too smart that i don't find any logic in their answers? I don't know. I simply have to much "I don't knows" in my vocabulary.

I was running through some website today and came across one article from Oprah that i thought was exactly how i felt. Hence the same titled "What do you know for sure?"

The articles consists of several people contributing to "What do you know for sure?" and i was amazed at how people define it. Have a read and enjoy.

爱 。 。 。 的不同角度

These are some part of the lyrics/words that i find captivating and would love to share it here:

爱人的那一个
往往在不完美中 给 完美 　
被爱的那一个
却总是在完美中 找 不完美 　
这便是人在爱里的盲点
两个人之间总有一方努力的付出
另一方努力的挥霍
付出的人努力给一百分
另一个却不知珍惜
往往以自己不够好作为藉口
为自己犯下的错误找寻出口。

“我会好好过，等你再爱我，向左或向右，都有我站在这里守候…” 因为知道你需要更体贴包容的爱来支持你自由的心。所以我不问离开的理由，我的影子依然坚持在这里默默的守候着你，相信在某个角落你会想起我。

谈恋爱，会让人立刻变强！！

我放手，希望分手能让你好过一点，其实还爱你，但因为对你，我连再见都说不出口，我把无私的宽容送给你做为最后的一份惊喜礼物，痛苦的回忆留给自己去承受。

16th angel beach

First Thought : Cool! Finally going to a beach party.

First Impression : Dark, nothing extra-ordinary other than having a BBQ on a Thursday evening at the beach.

I was there last week with my beau and his entourage to celebrate a friend's birthday at the beach which i thought was pretty cool and out of the norms to celebrate a birthday party at the beach, at night!

I first step foot on the sandy pathway on 16th angel beach at Kuala Tutong last week and it was nothing to commemorate about the short walk from our car to the centre of the location. I was walking in the dark, sandy road surrounded by tall trees and few friends. It was a bit spooky to walk in the dark towards the beach. Not that i felt anything but its just scary to be walking along the tall trees with only some stray lights from the not-so-distance hut to guide us.

It eventually got better as i walked closer. It was quite homey and laid-back amid the darkness. It has those "holiday" feel. I could see the wave coming onto the shoreline, a few metres away from our spot. There were toilets - clean toilets with baths, 2 cemented stoves for barbecuing, there's also a trampoline found slightly away from a short coconut tree, 2 small wooden open huts with tables, benches and bulb hanging down from the inside of the roof to provide lights and a 2-storey open hut - something like a watch tower overlooking out to the sea. A sense of relaxation were felt.

The night started with food and drinks when we arrived at 9:30p.m and the DJ at 10-ish and began working on his mixing at 11-ish. The party didn't literally start until the crowd came at midnight. Yes midnight and it was Thursday going on to Friday. I didn't expect it to start that late because i had to work the next morning. Well, i was following my beau and he didnt want to leave without his entourage so i had to stay on till 2:30a.m. Not that i'm not enjoying, i actually enjoyed to every beat of that night but it's just the work that's hindering my thoughts. Anyway, everyone was having such a great time that no one wanted to leave. I got to admit i wish that night was a Saturday so i could relax and unwind till the next morning and watch the sun rise with comfort.

The party was great if not better, than I thought. The weather was great, the sky was full of stars and the moon was shining brightly casting a shadow on the water. It was beautiful that night. I wish I had a picture to document it but I don't because I couldn't have caught such beautiful scene in the dark with my antique 3.2MP DigiCam.

Well, I will be going there again this Saturday. I will be bringing my camera this time and I hope we get there before the dusk falls in because I would really love to take pictures before it gets too dark to shoot anything. But I doubt we will get there before dusk because i don't think my beau's entourage is really excited as much as I to go to the beach to appreciate its' beauty and let alone, they'll be spending the night at the beach so i don't think they'll go there at 5pm that early and by the by they're never on time.

Until then...here are some photos i found. credits to emmagoodegg.blogs.com
