Comfortably Numb Again.

Unlike most people, I love Mondays. Cuz it brings energy and new hopes. And I dislike Fridays. Although weekend is near, it is also the time when effects of stress peak. The journey home alone is the toughest. Things get better once I read home as I indulge in slacking and what not.

Like it or not we have to put up with stress. What is stress? I think it is something which your body experience when put thru' some kinda situations. It drains your body, makes your mind tired. Ironically, I think this weakness stems from strengths of humanity. Example, sense of responsibility, commitment, consideration for others, desire for perfection, to improve or achieve, etc. Unlike unhappiness, it isn't as simple as So-What, and let go. Cuz you may not be worrying or actively thinking of it, but it continues to take a toll on your body. Tho' I think to relieve oneself from stress also requires one to plunge into another realm. Be engrossed in other matters.

It is natural for one to wish to hang out with friends and loved ones when experiencing stress cuz our body associates those with feelings of overwhelming comfort, neutralizing the stress. However, like all things, body learns to adapt and cope with stress better the next time, ie. being comfortably numb.

I think the key is really to find some kind of fast relief each time before the effects set in. Of cuz smoking and drugs ain't good form of reliefs. They become addiction, rather than helping the body to adapt stress. Seems like my addiction is writing. But its harmless lah. =p

Anybody free to hang out this weekend? -grins-

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too

Dreaming About You.

I usually leave my handphone on during the night (just in case if anyone want to contact me urgently, eg. a friend in need of help etc). But I think I will be leaving my phone off from now on. Why? In the wee hours this morning, I received three continuous sms . I forced myself outta bed to read the message, thinking it must be something very important. I surprised to read that they were messages from " Dreamchat ", telling me that " someone is dreaming of me ". Oh great! What a good reason to wake me up! It also asked me to call this 1900 number to listen to the message. There was even a member id at the end... So someone still wide awake in the middle of the night decided to use this wonderful service to let me know he/she is dreaming of me leh. wah seh. I immediately deleted the messages and went back to sleep. Knowing I will just have a few more hours of my six hours daily sleep time left. How did this " Dreamchat " thingy got my handphone number?
