This is the one about the third date ruleI was watching TV and they were talking about how a girl should never go to bed with a guy they are interested in on the first bed. And in Sex and the City, the "three date rule" was also mentioned. So my question would be: with the changing dating landscape, what constitute a date? If a couple met online, would their online chats be considered "dates"? Because I hate to think that I have ruined my chances with people I chat with online, whom I actually have good impressions of, when I finally meet them for the first time and we tumbled into bed on the first date and that spelt the end of things between us. Can we actually deny that online chats or "meetings" are less real than actually meeting face to face? How many people actually find it easier to "talk" in a virtual space? Are those any less real than actual meet-ups which might be awkward?
Ok. I was actually just thinking of one particular guy with regards to this. Yeah.
This is the one about how girls who are used to foreign men will not be satisfied with localsOk. I have to admit. I have heard stories about this happening. I have not personally experienced it. Until recently. Gee. Some guys are really more well-endowed than others. It will put some guys to shame at the sheer difference in size. Of course they can make up for it by being more steadfast in foreplay, by showing more care and concern towards the girl, etc etc. But if it doesn't hit the spot, darling, it doesn't hit the spot. No wonder more and more girls are looking for alternatives (read: vibrators) to get their O.
Of course, other than the physical aspects, there's also the mentality and emotional capabilities of our typical mummy's boy to the well-travelled, impeccably groomed cosmopolitan counterparts. I have forgotten how bak kut teh taste when I am constantly eating spaghetti or sushi for that matter. It's been sometime since I had real good bak kut teh.
In fact, I can't remember a real good bak kut teh. Or a mee goreng or a roti prata for that matter.
This is the one about having to come back to work and having no motivation to do anything.While I can understand the rationale on some level, but I feel it's a waste of time when we don't have everyone IN CLASS. We can't start next year's syllabus (begs the question of whether teachers are ready to teach what is to be taught next year). Even if some of us diligent ones have started, we will have to re-teach again next year. How is that being kind to our resources? Why not let the teachers have some time to breathe and then think about what to do next year to make the students work instead of plunging into a programme for the sake of... what.. I lost sight.
Me? I have been downloading games and playing. Honestly. Waste of my time. And money. Cab fare is $17 a day TO school. sigh.
This one is about how if I read one more beginning paragraph that describes the weather, I will tear the script.While starting a compo with "The sky was overwhelmed in crimson and amber-tinted clouds" and description of the "cold, grey, tumutuous, dark, ragged, clouds drifting across the sky", it simply show that students take what is given to them wholesale and REPRODUCE without discretion. It gets very tired after 2 of the same thing. Then we know that they have been given fanciful phrases but they do not know how to use these fanciful phrases to greater effect. These phrases are figurative language and should be used to reflect a certain aspect of the story. But overdoing simply make it difficult to swallow.
I always believe when you are being sincere in expressing the emotions, you will have the most suitable words for that moment. The more you try to make an emotion sophisticated, it is more likely you are going to fail in your attempt to express that emotion. Because the emotion got lost in the gigantic words.
I would have been died from the miserable weather in the compositions.
This is the one about how I got hair colour that resembles Ronald McDonald.I dyed my hair RED yesterday. It is red. Gee. It is bright red and I love it (despite not having grown into the new hair colour yet) It needs a little getting used to because my previous reds were more like copper and this is a true red reflect. Not to mention after having BLACK hair for a good year and a half, it was kind of strange to see colour on it. sigh. Have to see if it dimmed over the holidays if not i would have to dim it artificially. It is indeed to bright for school. I have to admit that. But who cares. School's out (for everyone else except us) I don't care if the students see it, come on, they are also waiting for school to end so they can do it. No wait. They do it even during school term. Nothing is really done to curb the problem so what's stopping me? sigh. This whole role-model thing is rather heavy and unnecessary at times.
