I just realised today that gloria stole my best friend, back in kindergarden! She demanded to know if I was from Jurong Calvary- after school today outside popular, then she claimed that meiting was always her best friend, just because they were bus-buddies! lOl where's the logic.. And I was like, "no no no! I've never seen you before back then.." and she was like, "yes! yes! Meiting was my best friend!" So you see, glor did steal my best friend back then, cos meiting was in my class, and I mean, logically speaking, she was more of my best friend than yours. Haha . So there. (: But we shared meiting anyway.. It's so coincidental! Who would have thought..

I talked to chay for over an hour just now.. I really don't know where we find so many subjects to talk about, but this was like with Tracy, Daphne & Kai Xuan! (:

I have decided that being peeved at people will never work, & that I shouldn't take myself too seriously. I have decided that forgiveness might be the way after all, and because of that, I have retracted my statement in the entry before (the one about those people). I don't mean that I didn't mean what I said, it's more of like, if I leave it as it is, it'll never go away. And I'd rather be happy than dignified, thank you.

Come to think of it, forgiveness is better than revenge. And I don't speak from the "saint"'s point of view, but in everyday life occasions, this applies as well.

Let's say- your darling pet dog bites you. Because people are always going "eye for an eye... tit for tat.." etc. Therefore it would be logical to-- bite the dog back. But unfortunately, that is not what we'll want to be doing. Instead, (based on observation alone), what someone did was to go "ouch!", give the doggie a little friendly whack, then give it a bone (reward). So, if we're forever going "EYE FOR AN EYE", we'll just end up having no eyes, or someone else's (because it seems that the phrase implies the exchange of eyes). Forgiving is one thing, accepting is another, & forgetting is the 3rd. Most people will never forget, but I don't think it'll hurt much to forgive, though it's something I seem to have difficulty doing.

Which brings me to the point of dishing shit back to the world.. During Lit. today, me & carmen were discussing the man in the bowler hat (some really cool poem), and then we were just chatting and slacking when carmen said something about how the world will be perfect because it will end one day, or something terribly sad that went along that line. Then we were talking about the world (generalisation) hurting us, and giving us Quote shit Unquote. Then I was saying how giving back the shit would only stink up everyone, because we'll be getting our hands dirty (figuretively), when it was initially only our face which was shitty.

What is the purpose of getting both people stinky, when all we have to do is take a bath? (solve the problem ourselves)
(This whole paragraph doesn't seem to make sense...)
