Can Humans live without friends?

Just stating a basic fact: I do have a close group of friends, so I'm not a total loner.

I've been wondering about that statement for quite some time. I feel that having to communicate constantly and meeting up often is tiring. I'm not a people's person; I might not be suitable for the industry I'm heading towards. Maybe I should hide somewhere where contact with humans are minimal.

The more you get to know someone, the more disgusted you'll feel about people, as a whole. Like how reliant some people are, how often you are used by others, the times where poor communication erupts in misunderstandings and any amount of explanations are always not enough. It is exhausting.

I'm sick, of communication. My head hurts. I feel faint.

On the bright side, I'm finally catching Julie and Julia on Friday. It's going to be off the cinemas very soon in Singapore, so I need to catch it before then!

Rumor Has It.

Honorary Degree! Don't she look cute in the gown plus sunglasses? Hahaha!

Aw, shuddap, its not that long!

This video is taken from www.simplystreep.com :)
Oh boy, now I know why I love her so much. Just look at her and listen to her humor! Hahaha!

Freaky is the new cute.

Look at the "No way man!" post, that's what you get when the picture is taken online and can't be seen anymore. XD

But, it IS a Yes Man! poster. :)

Test was kind of bad, Okto!Live at MediaCorp was boring, project meeting was dominated!! Aliens attack! By the way, I will introduce Alfred, soon. ;)

AND OH, DOUBT! (eyes shines at thought)

No way, man!

Oh great, I actually managed to miss Yes Man! Yes, I'm disappointed about it, but on the other hand, I would trying getting this movie with other means. (Yes, I'm not saying what way I am using.)

2009 has been quite kind to me, and I am very thankful for that. This year started well for me and I've learnt quite a few things about life:

- I have friends who appreciate me and accepted me for who I was. A really big thank you to them. I am really grateful towards them. I'll try to improve and be a better person before things happen again. (Touch wood.) I must learn to not talk but listen and keep quiet more often.

- Being 18 is no big deal, especially when your birthday happens in November. Only in November, I'll be of legal age. Now, I can only see everyone around me buy stuff like alcohol while I sulk. Haha! It's not that bad, I can get people to buy it for me instead. But, it's an additional step needed. Oh well~

- Rich people don't always live in a big room and have a huge bed, especially when you are in another country and staying with your relatives. I was kind of shocked. I didn't expect such a small space, but I have to admit it is kind of cosy. Although it is a small room, things inside worth a bomb considered to those of my room. What can I expect? :)

- Life is supposed to be stressful for me now, like it is for everyone in my class. However, I am not feeling the pressure yet, and I wonder if it is a good sign or not. I am not stressed, but there are 7 ICAs (aka projects and tests) coming up soon, very soon. Right after those seven, my exams will be tagging along. I need to work harder.

A note to myself: I wanna meet Meryl Streep and chat with her about everything under the sun/moon/stars/planets/milkyway/blackhole or whatever, just everything. :(

Ah ha!

I admit, I should be studying for a test tomorrow and here I am, adding some interesting looking gadget to my little lonely blog. But I couldn't resist it! Doesn't it look cute! I love the world map.

Anyway, I sense an upcoming change, or probably it's my imagination or maybe doubt ;). It is quite obvious to everyone with eyes to see that changes are taking over slowly. All my friends have a personal little space in my heart. The size of it depends on how close we are, the closer, the bigger. As simple as that. While I do not like the idea of reducing the size of that particular little space, it is best that I let go before, as I said before, things become ugly. Forget it, friends like that will come and go no matter how unwilling we are.

On a lighter note, my friend has the novel 'The Devil Wears Prada'! Why am I happy? I do not need to go to the library to look for it again and borrow it for a limited amount of time. My fabulous friend will do me a favor by lending it to me, although she says that the movie is much better. ;)

I want to catch Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa in the cinemas before it is gone! It looks so amusing! That fabulous friend say I will absolutely love the movie!

Oh! Doubt is coming out next year, 29th January 2009 in Singapore. I know it is slow, but it is seriously much better than not coming to Singapore at all! Meryl Streep is in it! Love her! Amy Adams is in it too, and I think she is not bad! Love the colour of her eyes, something we Asians cannot have without the help of contact lenses! Oh well! Woo! Meryl Streep! :D:D

One Copy?

I feel like a total loser. :(

By the way, I'm hearing this (inserts yakking hand gestures) and I want to hear this (inserts zipping hand gestures). Sounds familiar, or looks familiar? Its from The Devil Wears Prada, another wonder by Meryl as usual. :)

Simply Streep.

I said in my previous post that I love Meryl Streep. I mean seriously, she is such a great actress with a great personality. Why can't everyone be like her?

There are times when people start to lie and they can't stop. Or rather, they don't want to stop. It's hard to move away once you are attached or used to someone or something. However, if the first step to move away is not made, things would get uglier and uglier. Making things ugly is not what I want, it's disgusting.

Pushing everyone away will only make you suffer in the end, why don't people learn. Social circles getting smaller and smaller day by day, but the number of people being upset and disappointed increases. Ditch useless gossips, open up your mind, think more for people instead of making everything revolve around you, and only you.

Confidence in yourself is very important, but over-confidence will ruin you. Escape from your room of mirrors and take a look at people around, they don't need you, but it'll be nice if you are around for them. Taking people, especially your friends and family, for granted will just make yourself dependent and not everyone will tolerate so much.

Stand up on your own feet and stop whining and hoping that the whole world comes to your rescue and saves the day everytime like the Powerpuff Girls. Powerpuff Girls only exists in cartoons and on televisions, they really don't appear here in real life. Wake up from your dream and care more about others.

Oh ya, Halloween was fun. Birthday chalets and parties were fun too! :D

Watch more Meryl Streep movies, they are inspiring and lovely, especially Meryl. :D

The Hours.

"Did something happen?" That simple question was enough to let my precious friend tear.

Life is a funny thing, maybe God was joking when He suggested ending life with something called 'death', and someone up there took it seriously. Thats why everyone ends up dying. Or maybe it is like the movie, Accuracy of Death (aka Sweet Rain), people die after fulfilling their purpose.

What about those people who committed sucide then? Did they have a purpose? Did they fulfill their purpose before dying? No one knows, for sure. There is a choice of life or death for everyone, that sounds fair. What about illness? Is that fair?

The Hours, another movie by Meryl Streep in the past few years. I love that lady. In that movie, which I understood but then again did not understand, talks about life and death. One chose death, hoping to bring happiness and freedom to others, another chose to live, for herself and brought sadness and disappointment to others.

No matter which road people take, we'll all end up in the same place at the end. I believe that there will be people there discussing about their lifetime achievements to others, and some sit at a corner regretting about things that they did not do.

Right now, there is another choice to make. To regret or not.
