only e best is good enough

yesterday was full of surprises. during e early morning was chatting wif darren. then he suddenly told me he was reading my blog then. *grasp* + i rem last time when gek koon told me he also reads my blog neh......... *feeling honoured now* though i haf no idea how they got my blog address. hehehehe its a nice feeling to noe tt my blog is getting more n more attention.

hehehe, time for some advertisements. WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA. i think my good frens realli haf some nice blogs up. personally i love reading theirs also. so if u haf some spare time to SPARE, hehehe can use e links on my blog to access theirs neh. =)
xianzhi's blog is already so popular..........hehehehe ting n edmund's one is nice though they realli dun blog veri often. shuping n yuanli's ones r also veri enjoyable to read. Emily, alice and weixiang haf wonderful blogs also. muz go n support ok? hehehehe.

anyway for those who dun noe that emily's sister has a standard grumpy face 24hrs a day (hehe joking), u can go to her blog n verify it for urself. hahahahaha her sis is so 可爱。btw, her sis's high awareness can qie wo upside down. hehehe -----------another 卧虎藏龙。

xiang raise this interesting qn in my mind a few days ago..................................

In life, when u r unable to get e best of wats available, do u settle for something lesser? will u settle for second best? haf u been settling for second best for e past few years of ur life?

hahahah first thought tt bloody struck my mind "This is a damn good question =S" i then reflected on e last 5 years of my life..............................phew. i've not been settling for anything tt's second best. hmmm how abt u guys? hmmm, e span of this doesn't onli include love. it includes studies, ideals, morals n many other stuff. go give it some thought, try to rem instances tt u haf settled for something less than e best.

if u discover that its becoming a habit to constantly settle for something second best, then i would say tt its a disturbing pattern. There are juz times in our lives when second best is not good enough, dun u agree? xiang gave this example:

if u like gal/guy A and he/she doesn't like u back.............no mutual feelings n no chance i mean.
then comes along gal/guy B who likes u and u think that person is not bad but ur mind is still on A. will u decide to give B a chance? knowing that there is a chance u can end up wif her?

personally, i'll nvr give B a chance. cause when i've set my eyes on e person i wan, others will not haf a chance le....................i only go for e best, go for wat i wan, relentlessly........破釜沉舟。 i might be hurt veri badly but tt's e marvellous thing abt love........................u nvr noe when e rewards will come but u muz first work hard to fight for wat u wan first. =) hmmmm, i'm sure u ppl will noe that i still haven't had a gf......... if i was willing to settle for second best, i would haf been attached long ago. but i've decided to reserve this special place for my first love........ its something i noe tt she will love me for it. so in e end if things dun work out between me n A, i'll take a break n wait for another A to come along. tt's e way it should always be.

Likewise, it applies to ideals also............... i'm not satisfied wif settling for anything less than my ambitions. i won't be contented sitting at my office as a manager or watever in the next ten years. collect e pay n then bring home for ur family. Will u settle for tt? 5000 bucks pay? i'm sorry but i won't be satisfied. cause e riches in e world r all out there. i'm determined to be rich, if in e process i end up as a bankrupt................................i'll pick myself up n start all over again but nvr compromising my ideals. =) tt's how life should be, filled wif no regrets. hope u guys share my sentiments.

Life is such an exciting journey...................so let us embark on it wif our best effort n work for wat we feel we should deserve. work for wat we realli wan..................tt's e way it should be: never say die attitude. onli when we r realli determined to make things work for us, will the pathway to success be carved. onli then will ppl of the later generations rem us for a long time to come. =)

thats just one way to look at it... i've been thinking of another perspective...

many of us are user of the head more than the heart... but when you say you like gal A, you made the decision at a moment, and in that moment, you used your heart, which is good because in such affairs, its always better to use the heart...

BUT, as time moves on, things change. the situation changed, your heart even, might have changed, and now.. since you've made such a decision earlier, your head takes over. your head tells you that your heart told you earlier that you like gal A, so you stuck with her.

have you entertained the possbility that this isnt what your heart says anymore? it is your head talking now... your head could be telling your heart that you still like gal A.

unfortunately, many of us profess to be supporters of the heart, but sometimes, we fall into this trap of making a decision with the heart but sticking to the decision with the head, even though the heart might have changed...

anyway, i'm a supporter of the heart but i'm also a believer that the heart can change! =)

sorry for the long comment, long enough to put as a blog post liao :p

"hmm in tt case, juz dun rush things loh, see how e heart realli feels bah. everything takes time." is meant for me??? ....... ........ ........

errr.... haha... dont think it applies to me :p
maybe we can discuss more on msn!

My last post was too long, so i didnt put this down the last time but...

I agree with your last paragraph... every journey we embark on is worth going all the way if we even embarked on it in the first place. (if anything is worth doing at all, it is worth putting in your best effort!) It is always at the end of the journey and you look back and tell yourself, what an amazing tale!

PS. i killed my blog, dats why i am crapping so much here :p
