Snooker

I'm playing around with Audacity.
Some program used to analyze and rearrange music/songs.
I'm screwing up songs.
I also finally got to hear the "hidden" message in Jay Chou's Ni Ting De Dao.
You have to play the song backwards to hear it.

Went for the Advanced Elective Module in the morning, ended at 4PM, headed down to Dhoby Ghaut to play pool with ShaoLoong, Jerome, Dixon, Fabian, Kevin at MonsterCue.
Walked down to Orchard after playing and left for home.


Is your partner not good enough for you, or the other way round?

If you go out one day with $5 wanting to eat a $5 meal, but to your surprise, on that day, it costed $5.50 and you never got to eat it.
Usually people would go like, "Damn that restaurant," "Damn the economy," "Why am I so broke?" "If only my boss paid me more," "If only my parents gave me more."
Hardly will you see people go like, "It was all my fault that I came out with only $5 and no extra money for emergency," "If I did not drink last night, I would be able to eat the $10 meal."
Bottom line is, people tend to blame others instead of oneself. You know it, I know it, we know it.
How should one decide whether to go into a relationship or not? When there's love.
When is there love? When there's trust, there's security, there's faith, there's communication, there's mutual understanding, there's everything that's needed to maintain a good relationship.
What's most important? I'd say it's trust, communication, and understanding.
Every now and then we see people going in and out of relationships.
Those who usually end up out of one, becomes one probably because of the lack of trust, communication, and understanding. Infact they are linked in a way or so.
These people are those who, when single, thinks it is better to be in a relationship, and when in one, thinks it is better to be single.

In a good relationship:
When X trusts and has faith in Y's love for X, why would X be bothered whether anyone else is able to snatch Y's heart?
When X knows that Y needs X and vice versa, why would X feel worried when Y picks a quarrel or vice versa? It's not like anyone's gonna lose anyone anyway.
So what if Y spends more time with her friends than with X? At the end of the day, X and Y will still be together, ain't it?
Oh, so either one of both is spending more time with friends of the opposite sex than each other? Both are jealous of each other, if there's love, it will stop one day. If there isn't, then it's time to break up.
The love is there, both know it's secured, it's solid, too hard to break.
If the love is true, there won't be a need to worry about your partner giving "anything" to other people.

In a bad relationship:
When X doesn't trust and have faith in Y's love for X, X would be very afraid that Y might give love to others too.
When X feels that Y doesn't need X or vice versa, either one of both would be very afraid of quarrels as they see it as the reason to break up.
When Y spend more time with friends, X thinks that Y would eventually become close to friends than X.
There's no love. There's no trust, instead of explanations and expressions of care and worry for one another, parties questions each other.
Both parties are very afraid of each other giving "things" to other people.


Now we often see people worrying so much about what their partner is doing.
For example, you're a guy, you are going out with friends your parents don't know at all, and they expect you to name them all out.
Don't you feel weird telling them, "I'm going out with John, James, Dick, Tom, Harry, Eric, Edric, Jason, Peter," when they don't even know any of them? Imagine if one of them has a very laughter stimulating name. Same goes to your partner. When you ask who is your partner going out with, and you get "Friends" as a reply, take it. If you suspect anything, find out who the friend is yourself, don't ask for help. Don't expect your partner to tell you, "Boy, I'm going out with BahBahBlackSheep, that's her real name, I swear, you have to believe me."
When you ask for a name, after getting "friends" as a reply, your partner immediately concludes that you are suspecting em of something already, and the "atmosphere would be more tensed." And so, telling your partner that your friend's name is BahBahBlackSheep would make you feel extremely awkward, it's like trying to distract your partner and changing the subject by making em laugh out of suspecting you, which is not gonna happen.

Somehow, disagree with you, saying that people will want to get into a realtionship when they are single, and when they are in one, they think single is best for them. Not all have this thoughts. Some will want to have an everlasting one, which is impossible, unless both parties really have very strong trust and understanding with each other. It takes two hands to clap.

I didn't say that all has this thought, everyone starts off wanting to last forever, unless one's a playboy or girl. Only when there is lack of trust, communication, and understanding would the thought that being single would be better arise. The one who first decides to break up, is the one who gets tired of clapping with the other first. You see, if we can say that quarrelling is equivalent to understanding each other better, and also equivalent to clapping hands, then think this way:
If it takes coordination for 2 people to clap their hands together, hand in hand, without missing each other's hand, when one decides to stop clapping, that one gives up on the other. So why not continue clapping and understanding each other better until fingers of both hands interlock each other and stay forever?

Point is, will they every last? Will they be together forever as what they wish and hope for when they see each other in the very begining starting a relationship with each other? I don't know, this one leaves both to decide.

Yeah, whether they will really last forever or not, depends on both of them. It's up to how determined and persevered they are.

Maybe I should ask this question. Do you think we are mature enough to enter in a BGR? Some of the couples are still shy towards each other even after one month or more. I mean is like...do we really call that 'love' at this age? I think we are not ready, even though we may 'love' that party or something. Have you like a girl before? That you can actually sacrifies your time to do anything to please her?

I don't know, do you think so? No one would realize that he or she is immature, until he or she matures. It can be called love, but most of the time, it's just puppy love.
