Thoughts for thoughts

Whole day [post my narcissistic pictures. Bet all of you are sian of it already.
Today i shall bore all of u further with a long essay on people i dont like, life, work and marriage. They dont go hand in hand, but who cares.

Marriage.
Its crazy. everyone around me seems to be in some sort of wedding frenzy. One of my JC friend who is 24 this year just got married. Like boom. We didnt even know till pictures started showing up in facebook . I think his wife is 22 or 21? Oh man. The last time i saw them together was in NYC back in fall 2006. It's amazing how others can be so sure of the person they want to spend the rest of their life with. Maybe marriage is some kind of commitment that binds an uncertain relationship together. Maybe marriage is a step to bring a couple's relationship to a newer and higher level. Whatever it is, i cannot fathom it yet. Speaking of which, i better spend more time with my guy buddies, especially those with rock steady relationship and is looking at marriage. Because once they tie the knot, it makes it terribly hard to go out with them. Somehow, going out with a married man seems and sounds terribly wrong.

Girls.
This is random. I seldom crticise girls openly. Except once. My infamous tree trunk repertoire. Speaking of which, i have also slowly let go of an otherwise valuable friendship. It just didnt make sense how i am casted as being up to no good and disallowed to have any contacts.

Not to digress, recently, i had another dislike this particular girl. Well, this seems rather petty. I kinda bought something from her online. She claims the something i bought was brand new. Upon receival, it turned out to be not brand new. When i asked her, she insisted and lied blatantly that it is new. Whatever it is, some girls try so hard to look good on the outside, but yet are so rotten in the inside. They can never be beautiful, no matter hard they try. To me, they are like the drink cans i see on the road. Why the analogy. Because who cares so much about drink cans except the cleaner.
I dont want to question the girl who lied to me anymore. I leave it to karma. I hope her consciene is clear -- she is able to stand up to the world and speak of her deed in due dignity.

All of us have different guiding principles and philosophies in life. They kinda dictate how we behave or lead our life. It could be things like bringing happiness to the people around you, living with a clear conscience, wanting to be carefree everyday etc etc. Whats yours?

Work- Most of us are young working adults. Or i presume most of the readers here are. Work gives one some sort of financial reward, but you also find yourself shouldering responsibilities and expectations. The general complaints i hear is that : Works is so-so.or Work is busy etc etc. The people who probable enjoy work are probably the interns because they are kinda working but yet not really in a way. That aside, ever thought about what motivates you to work? For me, its still more of the passion than money. Speaking of which, it is really hard to balance at times too. I have heard of people quitting their banking jobs to be property agents (apparently the good and well ones can earn up to 120k a month). There are others who claim to be uninterested in a particular industry but ventured back because of the difficulty they faced in the other industry they claim to be interested in. How can one be sure what he/she is really interested in. Or could there be other underlying reasons. At this early stage of our career, truth is, no one can. Whatever it is I still cant see myself doing something i probably dont enjoy but earns alot. Maybe we are all driven by different goals.

ok i shall end off my ramblings here. I m sure i have lost many along the way.
