ShrodingersCat SG yeah recently I've been talking to a new colleague she's been very upset with some of the things that's been happening at work especially interpersonal relations...and I don't know how to console her and really... human beings are... imperfect its not that I dont notice the little 'non-niceties' that happen but most of the time, the very same people are also pretty nice just.. well.. imperfect And while we take the measure of someone else... its impt not to let it become our measure as well.
the Bear SG well said... i always figure, let things slide.. why let the things around you make you unhappy? choose to be happy
ShrodingersCat SG yeah that's what I think too... happiness is a choice not something that's handed over to you on a silver platter contentment is a state of mind not a state of economy.
the Bear SG yup... i see a lot of "not nice" with my friends too.. but hey.. it's their yoke to bear not mine.. they probably see a lot of "not nice" in me too.. my path and their paths are not the same.. but hey.. i figure, let things slide.. besides, what binds a bunch of us together is that no matter what, we're there for each other, and that if one if happy, the rest are very happy for that one in a month's time, we'll be again gathering for the wedding of 2 of them... we're bloody happy for them one of them went through some really tough times with her divorce and we've been around if she wanted to talk about it... now she's found another in that group we're in, hey.. we're still smiling about it you know?
ShrodingersCat SG Wooohoo Yeahhh!!! I'm also happy cos a friend of mine whom I've known since we were 7, (and had loads of quarrels, spats u know through the couple of decades give or take a few years) ... is pregnant! Its amazing to be given the opportunity to go through life together with someone take it easy important na... its just work, its just a job.. its just.. life!!
the Bear SG yeah... a little baby to coo at soon babies are cute as heck.. but i have to confess.. i have no idea how to hold a baby anyway, the guy, we have said he's got himself an instant family thing is, i've been hammered with the task of being MC at the luncheon.. coz i'm their "walking dictionary" and the chinese part is being done by another of the mob.. actually the only one who can speak proper mandarin
ShrodingersCat SG Exciting Call me soppy but I always enjoy going to my friends' weddings~~ yeah babies r scary... i'm relieved they have classes so soft and.. flabby unlike kittens
the Bear SG uhh.. how? like that? when you have kittens of your own i mean? got to go for classes to learn how to carry them?
ShrodingersCat SG Yeaaah!!! how to bathe them too... if only they come toilet trained like real cats then babies wld be perfect.
the Bear SG i think if i find Mrs Bear and we have cubs, i will have to go for these classes i don't even know how to carry babies
the Bear SG like that how? when it's time for you and Mr Shro-cat to have kittens? i think even pink and wrinkly, they're still cute.. but dunno and don't dare to carry
fudgester SG Well, I'm not thinking about marriage yet. Duh... I want to get my studies over and done with first. In any case, I ideally want to get married before I hit 30... for the simple reason that I want my little coyotes to be self-sufficient by the time I retire.
the Bear SG i would like to be able to do my part for bringing up cub.. so got to learn somehow right?
fudgester SG Anyway, I think I should go sleep now. I'll be giving tuition tomorrow at 10am.... and my students have requested a three-hour session. Oh well... at least the hours are shorter than a restaurant job, and private tutoring is something that I can do well. And it does pay the bills. *me mysteriously disappears in a puff of smoke*
the Bear SG after reading for a few hours, i'm sleepy and it's started to rain heavily.. goodnight everyone.. and have a great sunday ahead
