Valentino Are You

Short Talk
Here is my most classic sms reply I got from someone!!!!
-_-

So are you a Valentino? In light of the coming Valentines Day which are usually looked upon as something so treasured and kinda sacred amongst lovers and couples. I’ve even heard of singles complaining that they feel so lonely during this time. Here’s my point of view for the singles.

You saved money on a day which someone created! Well, it’s common knowledge that most couples tries to have a perfect celebration on this day, and to me is the day where someone can make use of the guy (especially young couples) and approach him and ask him this, “Care to buy a lovely rose for your girl?” With the ego and thick skin, I am sure that person selling the rose, candy, bear bear will make a hefty fortune just on one day.

I prefer celebrating on days which no one else celebrate on the same day. Too many people is a crowd and getting a place to eat is a race. All the fancy restaurants are booked. I’ve got a few friends who are smarter, they celebrate the day before or the day after. It’s better that way I guessed. Why create the uneasiness in trying to impressed only on that day.

Here’s a quote from one couple regarding this Valentine’s Day!

Wise Words From A Couple

Daniel : What are your thoughts of Valentines Day?
Guy : To me Valentine’s Day is just a self made day in order for your love ones to be remembered. We wouldn’t need Valentines Day if couples know how to treasure each another on every other day. To me, everyday should be like a Valentines Day, you treasure your love one everyday and not just for that special occasion.

Now I was immobilized when I heard that, but then seemingly, it really strike me as to how this couple of aged 60++ years can really think of it in a different tune. Okay, maybe it’s the mindset. But then nevertheless, singles, if you’re trying to impress the girl or guy you love, maybe it is also a good day to be open about it, since it’s the day where you’ve(guys especially) got very good opportunity to express your feelings towards your date partner.

Friends Are Always There!!
Anyway call me old-stylo but I guessed my opinions differ in certain ways. You can share your opinions about this promiscuous day if you like to though. As for me, I’ll go enjoy my singlehood for now. :) Anyway Happy Valentines Day…..

When You’re Down

Posted by Daniel Chew On February - 9 - 2008

You will feel down, when you think the world around you is crumbling. You felt that whatever you do, there’s always something which makes it like you did a big mistake. You also ponder as to why am I here? Why is it that I can’t find peace. Where am I? Do I exist merely to live and then die.

Most of us has all these thoughts or somehow someway thought of it before. Well, it’s perfectly natural. I sometimes wonder, why all the fuss to work my ass off to succeed in something and go under remote superbly crazy stress under your employer when one can take life easy. Yes, here’s another thought…. taking life easy when you’re single is alright, but if you’re married, you got an aim, which is to strive to ensure happiness for the future ones (child) living style. In a way, people live because they need an aim, people work because they also have an aim.

My aim now is to make myself look good physically. Although my mum too keeps calling me to find ‘someone’, parents will always be parents. Well, that’s the reason for being the eldest. Dang…. saying I am not young anymore.. :( *cham*

Live in Motion

Happy Thaipusam to those celebrating it!!

It’s now the mid of January 2008! Look see look see, the time pass by so fast. Now looking back from year 2007, we’re now in 2008, life passes by so fast, we just think how it all passes. Like we’re living in a fast forward world.Come to think of it, life to me has been pretty awkward, going up and down. When there are times that I have been down, I have friends who sends sms greetings to cheer me up, which I greatly appreciate. Well, guess that’s what friends are for eh…. So now this is another motivational article by Daniel!

Life Moving Fast

We all kinda know that in life, we need something, someone to hold back, like to support us. Although some people can survived on self motivation, it just doesn’t seem to be complete. Take sports, people strive for glory with the motivation coming from within, but in every sports there are fans cheering them onward. That gives the motivation factor a boost.

Another scenario, if you’re working then you spend lots of time to finish a pending task and after you’ve done it, you’re satisfied with it. Yes, self satisfaction is fun, but let’s say your boss comes in and gives you a pat in the back or an encouragement word saying, “you’ve done a great job, nice work!“. Now tell me you wouldn’t take it as a motivational factor. Like said, live is not motionless, something else can drive us further to pursue onward. Now if my boss said that to me, I think I will carry on working with a better perspective on the job. As a matter of fact, humans are easily pleased when it comes to this.

But of course, if you really think no one’s supporting you, you can also take my other option which is talking to Elmo. I am sure Elmo will be happy to listen to what you have to say! So don’t be sad to say nothing motivates someone to live on their life.

Relax in Redang

Or if you just don’t want to see all this, just reward yourself with a rest in an island, maybe Redang Island.
