Day 4: Your favourite photograph of your best friend.

It would be nice to have a best friend. In my case, I’d like to have two best friends – one who’s a guy and one who’s a girl. But from past experiences of having a best friend, being a girl at that – I always find myself in tears, really. If you’re a frequent reader of both my blogs or if you just know me really well, I treasure my friendships a lot. (My mother thinks I treasure them too much though. She just thinks I’m being stupid putting so much effort into my friendships, when most of them aren’t that bothered to keep the friendship going.)

Arguments do happen, and the roots of these arguments are normally due to misunderstandings between the individuals concerned. When quarrels occur, I like to think that both parties are at fault, in the context that two people are involved in said fight. Generally, nobody likes to admit that they are wrong. Nobody likes to take the first step to apologise and say that they are mistaken. But, didn’t anybody consider that sometimes, saying sorry doesn’t necessarily mean you are in the wrong? To put an end to such unhappiness and awkwardness, one party may just apologise to maintain the friendship and go back to the happier times of before. So, let the aforementioned statement serve as a little food for thought for my readers here.

Anyway, I have learnt to slowly break away from the need having a best friend. Instead, something came to mind, “Isn’t there a saying that goes, ‘The more the merrier’?” Therefore, I now have best friends. Or rather, many great friends that undeniably made my life more colourful and meaningful. They also opened up my perspectives on many issues, and filled my days with laughter and smiles. Although we all have our differences, but we still get along very well and most importantly, I can be myself and I feel very comfortable around them.

Thank you for coming into my life.

Thank you for being my friend.

(I fear I’m going to miss some of my friends out, so I think I rather not post any photos here. If they’re reading this entry, they’ll know who they are. I am sure of that.)

Meanwhile, my best friends forever...

It’s not an English name I came up with for myself. My mother is indeed a genius in coming up with such a splendid name for me. Although my name has been unfortunately mutilated (nicknames are excluded) over the past years, full credits to my mum for my current identity.

I’m certainly looking forward to changing the word ‘patient’ to ‘survivor’! If you’re interested to read about my journey in battling lymphoma, you can click here to proceed to my cancer blog.

Ironic, I know; this blog is mainly pink instead. I like all colours actually, but I find myself having an affinity to the colour green. In fact, I can safely say that green is my soul colour.

Languages, music, fashion, photography, cultures, dance, literature, writing; just about anything, really. The arts truly intrigue me, especially thought-provoking pieces. Of course, the arts play a major role in inspiring me in my everyday life.

I don’t have a favourite genre – I read any book that interests me!

I am a trained right-hander from young, since apparently being left-handed is considered ‘wrong’. Basically, I’m ambidextrous! No wonder I find it easier to air guitar using my left hand than my right; I simply relate to the arts than subjects that deal with logical thinking better, too.

A stubborn Bull I am, too. I abhor being rushed. I prefer doing matters at my own reasonable pace. I don’t particularly like changes in my routine, but I can adapt quite easily. I’m a very practical person as well. I enjoy the beautiful things in life, but that doesn’t make me shun ugliness at all. Besides, it all depends on how one perceives beauty. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

Still am, but I’m slowly learning to accept imperfection into my life. Also, I’m doing my best to erase the many expectations I have so I could one day master the art of letting go and freeing myself to simple happiness and joy.

Compared to before, I’m less dramatic nowadays. Language-wise, I attempt to blog flawlessly in English and speak proper English online with my peers. Call me a Grammar Nazi all you want, but that’s how I roll. I only converse in perfect English in formal situations and during my dramatic outbursts. Otherwise, I’m absolutely capable of communicating like the average Malaysian!

It’s a different issue altogether when you’re forced to learn for the sake of getting good grades, though. Other than that, I’m open to new information and knowledge anytime! I especially would like to learn more languages and pick up new musical instruments.

…are just some of the things I would love to do in the near future, hopefully!

the basic rules apply. If you respect me, I’ll respect you. If you happen to be someone who has low EQ skills, I’ll try to be tolerant but my patience is definitely limited. I’m observant when it comes to human behaviour. I’m a person of many opinions, but I don’t voice them out unless I trust you enough; I’m very honest and candid when it comes to the people I can trust. Even though I trust very easily, not everybody can prove that they’re all that nice. Hurt me, and I’ll only defend myself if necessary. Hurt my family or my friends – you won’t find me holding back.

Is there anything else you would like to know about me?
Throw me your questions and/or doubts here! I honestly have nothing to hide, so you’ll expect the truth and nothing but the truth.

It’s only how I phrase my answers that you’ll have to be aware of.
