Long weekend ahead.. Thanks..

Alright, i'm officially 23.. Why have the numbers just keep adding, and not staying put.. Like if i think i hadn't grow enough, can i just be 22 again for another year? And to think, mum likes to count in chinese, which makes me 24, geez..

Recieved two pairs of watches.. One is from "Fossil", the other is "Kenneth Cole" Reaction series.. Thank you ladies, once again.. Snoop quoted, "The feeling is really good, for a lady to buy a watch for the guy she likes." What's more, i wearing it right? I prefer the former one.. Hadn't wear the latter, too big for my hand..

Heard from the radio, "Are you an Escaper, or Confronter?"
An Escaper, avoids and think what to do next when it arises again.
A Confronter, face the fact, solve it, and no longer have to worry about it.

I assume, to different situations, we react differently.. Most of the time, I think i would love to choose to confront, though truth hurts, we have to face it anyway.. Please, living in denial is plainly putting off issues, it doesn't solves..

Have you procastinate yet on another issue/task today?

A friend asked me, "Hey Peter, does the word supposingly exist at all?" That left me thinking.. It took me a good 8 or 9 mins to remember, it doesn't exist in the dictionary(and of course i had www.dictionary.com to vouch for me). We're suppose to use "supposing that" to pharse it, instead of "supposingly".. After i answered and briefly explained the fact to my friend, i reminisced..

I read about an article in reader's digest eons ago, which sort of is related to this.. Why are some English words not official, yet is widespread like a nursery song? The writer cited, "To suit to our needs, we're readily accepting things not official in life." Of course, this is nothing bad and is starting to create our 'comfort zone'. And we do get irritated and stuff when things don't go our way, but mind you, we're not aware of its(comfort zone) till events happen and threaten it.

We, all of us, do have this imaginery 'zone' existing, it's just that we're just too accustomed to it till we took it for granted.. My mum kept telling me nowadays, "Treasure those present, in front of you, don't wait for it's extinction/disappearance then we stand to regret or miss".. My uncle is in Tan Tock Seng, he's going to be gone in a twinkle of eyes, the waiting game begins since two days ago.. With yet another death around me, i'm numb suddenly..

Life, a word so simple to spell and read, but so complex and tiring, yet so frail and fragile..

*Added on @ 1718hrs - Thank you to my dear friend who called me at the blink of an hour shy of my birthday being over all the way from Australia, Brisbane. Glad you remembered, and gave me the only surprise actually.. Enjoy your holidays "Dumb P", lol..
