Entries for September, 2009

September 1st, 2009

if you can't give up even just a little bit of your individuality, don't get your hopes for marriage. it might not even be your calling. it requires a lot of compromise and sacrifices. i have been failing relationships because i want it my way. i dunno whether it is because i haven't found the right one yet, but i am romantically challenged. so i might want to watch "the ugly truth" sometime later this month. can a guy actually support my profession as a scientist =o ? marie sklodowska and pierre curie, anyone? finding a guy whom i can collaborate with in a research project?that'd be awesome...here's an interesting bit from wiki:

"In the same year Pierre Curie entered her life. He was an instructor in the School of Physics and Chemistry, the École Supérieure de Physique et de Chimie Industrielles de la Ville de Paris (ESPCI). SkÅ‚odowska had begun her scientific career in Paris with an investigation of the magnetic properties of various steels; it was their mutual interest in magnetism that drew SkÅ‚odowska and Curie together.[13].

Her departure for the summer to Warsaw only enhanced their mutual feelings for each other. She was still laboring under the illusion that she would be able to return to Poland and work in her chosen field of study. When, however, she was denied a place at Kraków University merely because she was a woman,[14] she returned to Paris. Almost a year later, in July 1895, she and Pierre Curie married, and thereafter the two physicists hardly ever left their laboratory. Their shared hobbies were only long bicycle trips and journeys abroad, which brought them even closer. Maria had found a new love, a partner and scientific collaborator that she could depend on.[14]"

hey i mean, while other girls i know (esp those from medan tsk tsk) dreamt of becoming a housewife and mother, i have never had such aspirations truthfully...i am not lying here. can i just be a career woman all my life? i can't bear thinking of how i can be a stay at home mother, teaching my kids, taking care of them, while having my necessities all paid by a man. i really can't bear it. it's like my worst nightmare. because that way i can't develop my talent in the corporate/academic world. do you hear me?

Elizabeth Elliot was right. I need to be 100% in love with my God-given destiny. Doing what I'm supposed to do. and my gut feeling is telling me that it is to stay working for the rest of my life in the scientific/medical field. though people may change.

for now, will focus on work and school, self-actualization. singles everywhere are doing it, so why can't i?

anyway, it's september already! Thank God I survived that hellish month of August.

The nice soundtrack is by Davichi, the song is called "Hot Stuff".

say goodbye

to destructive habits and build back good habits will be resolutions of the month.

1. sleep at 11 pm

2. take care of face

3. take note of expenses

4. learn to cook korean cuisine, i want to keep myself pre-occupied at home so i won't be a mall rat too often. just bought myself a very interesting recipe book called "korean cooking for everyone". at first i wanted to buy either korean or japanese recipe book, but the japanese one looks very boring, so...dae han min guk! *clap* *clap*

didn't want spanish or italian or thai recipe book cos the herbs and spices are really causing headache =s there are too much of them! besides that for western food, i really don't have a proper oven at home T.T

You can't hurry love

I need love, love
To ease my mind
I need to find, find someone to call mine
But mama said

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
You got to trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

But how many heartaches
Must I stand before I find a love
To let me live again
Right now the only thing
That keeps me hangin on
When I feel my strength, yeah
Its almost gone
I remember mama said:

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

How long must I wait
How much more can I take
Before loneliness will cause my heart
Heart to break?

No I cant bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that i, I cant go on
These precious words keeps me hangin on
I remember mama said:

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

No, love, love, dont come easy
But I keep on waiting
Anticipating for that soft voice
To talk to me at night
For some tender arms
To hold me tight
I keep waiting
I keep on waiting
But it aint easy
It aint easy
But mama said:

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said to trust, give it time
No matter how long it takes

You cant hurry love
No, you just have to wait
She said love dont come easy
Its a game of give and take

there is always a dilemma between a familiar face and the tall, dark, handsome stranger (not necessarily dark nor tall but u got the idea).

how i wish there's a guy out there who's been waiting for me to break up all these while...or is it just girls who can think that way? how i wish i had met you sooner. oh well, live with no regrets...is it that late if i get to know you now?

Hae-na: “Do you love me? Would you do anything for me? Can you devote yourself to me for the rest of your life? Can you risk your life for me? That’s what my grandfather said — giving money is like entrusting your life to someone. I can’t entrust my life to you, can I?”

beyonce - if i were a boy

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wanted
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d stick up for me.

[Chorus]
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I’d be a better man.
I’d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he’s taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
Tell everyone it’s broken
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home)

(Chorus)

It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

(Chorus)

But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don’t listen to her
You don’t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

 

 

 

how i wish someday i'd have that person who won't take me for granted by my side...someone who will return my kindness, faithfulness, and commitment through the end...someone who would hold me when i'm in pain, someone whom i can lean on.

looking good makes me feel good...that was the reason behind the change of my appearance lately...it might not be wrong, but i should not be mastered by anything.

i heart today's ktb, i think our discussion was deeper than the previous ones...

world fashion/dresscode

singapore: it's either very slack (t-shirt/tank and jeans/shorts and flipflops) or the very opposite (prom dresses and its equivalent for the guys) or working apparels (duh!)

western: in general is simple and sophisticated...though french, british, spanish, and us people have their own uniqueness. i'd say that my favourite style goes alternate between french and british dresscode right now. chic, eclectic, quirky (british) but sometimes simple and sophisticated (french). not very complicated in colors, they don't wear very colorful clothings. blacks, greys, browns, beige, denim colors go well with this style. think skinnies, boyfriend jackets, bohemian street style (it's bohemian, but not gembel), leggings, and don't forget the tough looking heels/gladiators. prominent accessories can be important too during cocktail like occasions.

korean and east asian in general: very colourful (say hello to pinks, reds, purples, yellows, and greens! love their confidence in wearing loud colors...), quite casual and comfortable for koreans and chinese (I don't like their casualness...sometimes can look a bit too gembel or too childish for my taste), but very complicated and hard to mimic for the harajuku girls. I prefer simpler styles.

now the most interesting one is indons... girls who don't like to dress up (or too lazy) wouldn't wear very slack clothings like sg ans during their more relaxed days...neither very gembel as well. indons love to be rapih at least. it can be a very normal casual dresscode, nothing too tight (think babydoll styles, oversized tee/shirt and black leggings. why? because they either avoid looking very sexy or are not confident enough with their silhouette, blame it on the cars, they don't walk as much as sg ans in indo!) with shoes/formal sandals! when they do dress up, don't forget the louis vuitton bags and matching accessories to match up to the famous rich indo taitai style =P ok, not to bash so much the indons style...actually in the showbiz I do realize that their style is more toward ethnic, but can be westerner-trying to be as well. I love the rich ethnicities in their style...of course all thanks to the huge varieties of culture available in our country. examples would be batik and kebaya.

Bible reading of the day

1 Peter 2:11-12

11Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from sinful desires, which war against your soul. 12Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.

post coco avant chanel

She popularized the little black dress, shoulder pads, and monochrome black/white style. To her luxury must have comfort...She disliked heels. Must have been a very unique woman. Coco Chanel is. Her straightforwardness kind of reminded me of me...Never over friendly with a guy that she's not interested in. Talked just enough words to convey her thoughts/feelings. However, they are THE exact words needed everytime. Interesting woman indeed...She had several affairs but never married.

The Arthur "Boy" Capel - Coco romance was depicted very romantically in the movie...I wish I could have a romance that I can remember for a lifetime, even if I couldn't finish it with a marriage. though seemingly impossible with all the not romantic guys I've known.

Me now? I'm like the opposite of her. I'm trying to have more variety cos I'm bored with simplicity. I would say that simplicity is not classic. I'm bringing back lace, corset style (minus the skanky connotation of it), frills, motives, and bright colors. But I agree though that black and white are 2 very essential colors...I secretly wish that I could wear a black wedding dress and a black wedding veil...but that's too funeral-like haha

From Bob Marley

"You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters? She’s not perfect - you aren’t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can. She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there." -Bob Marley

friends

the friends that i come into contact with everyday are now countable. aside from colleagues, there are: 6 persons. scary, huh? and it feels very comfortable being an antisocial in singapore. i congrate you if you belong to one of the rare 6.

don't you think i need to outsource from my usual circle? this could be a crisis.

Colbie Callat - Fallin for you

p.s. because romance is meant to be enjoyed, not to be kept within inside =)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7qtLrQVUFQ&feature=channel

I don't know but
I think i maybe
Fallin' for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe i should
Keep this to myself
Waiting 'til i
Know you better

I am trying
Not to tell you
But i want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So i'm hiding what i'm feeling
But i'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

As i'm standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around us
I see nobody
Here in silence
It's just you and me

I'm trying
Not to tell you
But i want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
So i'm hiding what i'm feeling
But i'm tired of
Holding this inside my head

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you

Oh i just can't take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spinning out

I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now i found ya
I don't know where to
I think i'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
I think i'm fallin' for you

I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now i just can't hide it
I think i'm fallin' for you (x2)

I'm fallin' for you

Ooohhh
Oh no no
Oooooohhh
Oh i'm fallin' for you

bikram yoga

today i tried this yoga on an impulse, cos it's a 2 weeks free trial which i got from i-dunno-where. The location is at Pacific Plaza level 11, a branch of TrueYoga. I thot I was going to do either Bollywood dance or matwork Pilates, but it turned out that it's only limited to hot Bikram Yoga. Oh yes, it's really hot. Here's a description of  Bikram Yoga:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bikram_Yoga

It is a very interesting exercise with a lot of benefits (udah kayak salesnya =P), improving your lung capacity, strength, flexibility, toning, firming, increasing muscle mass, reducing stress (of course!). Ok here's my testimony as a first timer:

at first I was kind of shocked why all the women in the class were wearing so minimum clothings, only about 3 of us were wearing t-shirts. almost all were wearing belly-baring leotards. then i oso dunno why the male trainer was only wearing underwear. I almost laughed and the trainer seemed to be annoyed. ternyata....

the room was heated to 40 degrees and I only knew now how difficult yoga is. Balancing, stretching, almost like ballet. Hell yeah my balance was so poor, stretching was still ok, I did modern dance before, remember? Bikram yoga is not for beginners I think. I underestimated the level of difficulty, still could not follow each and every move in the 26 positions. Sprained my neck a few times. I thought I was going to faint or something in the middle of the class, we must follow instruction very carefully, including when to inhale and exhale, through nose or through mouth (mostly through nose, that explains the lung capacity thing, only towards the end we can exhale using mouth). If not, we may risk sprain injuries and dizziness. I noticed I was sweating a lot (it's like exercising in sauna) and heartbeat was so fast it's a bit scary in the middle of the 90 minutes. Skin turned so red from head to toe. Just remember to drink a lot of water before and after exercise due to the massive dehydration caused.

really2 need skin tight clothings for the stretching, otherwise it's quite difficult. The more minimum the better, so that it won't disrupt your movements. I was wearing khakis...so oopsies =P I won't dare belly-baring tanks though, some even wore bikinis. most of the people in the class were ladies though, so no worries.

Maybe I'll come again twice next week if I have the time...got to redeem the free trial period...it's quite expensive to be a member. The exercise was kind of painful at first, but you'll feel so good after completing the 90 minutes session and it's also good for the body and mind.

here's a clip of the poses:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wEIsbdIYmI

though we're not that pro...it's quite creepy actually.

i really don't mind trying anything at least once, do I? yeah I'm fine with anything as long as it is not destructive. esp with a clear goal in mind, I'd try anything once!

fave quotes from time traveller's wife

"When you live with a woman you learn something every day. So far I have learned that long hair will clog up the shower drain befor you can say "Liquid-Plumr"; that it is not advisable to clip something out of the newspaper before your wife has read it, even if the newspaper in question is a week old; that I am the only person in our two-person household who can eat the same thing for dinner three nights in a row without pouting; and that headphones were invented to preserve spouses from each other's musical excesses."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"He said something interesting: he said that he thinks there is only free will when you are in time, in the present. He says in the past we can only do what we did, and we can only be there if we were there."
Audrey Niffenegger

"When the woman you live with is an artist, every day is a surprise."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"But do you think," I persist, "that it’s better to be extremely happy for a short while, even if you lose it, than to be just okay for your whole life?"
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"It's hard being left behind. I wait for Henry, not knowing where he is, wondering if he's okay. It's hard to be the one who stays.

I keep myself busy. Time goes faster that way.

I go to sleep alone, and wake up alone. I take walks. I work until I'm tired. I watch the wind play with the trash that's been under the snow al winter. Everything seems simple until you think about it. Why is love intensified by absence?

Long ago, men went to sea, and women waited for them, standing on the edge of the water, scanning the horizon for the tiny ship. Now I wait for Henry. He vanishes unwillingly, without warning. I wait for him. Each moment that I wait feels like a year, an eternity. Each moment is slow and transparent as glass. Through each moment I can see infinite moments lined up, waiting. Why has he gone where I cannot follow?"
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"I wanted someone to love who would stay: stay and be there, always."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"I hate to be where she is not, when she is not. And yet, I am always going. - Henry deTamble"
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"There is only one page left to write on. I will fill it with words of only one syllable. I love. I have loved. I will love."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"I sometimes end up in dangerous situations, and I come back to you broken and messed up, and you worry about me when I'm gone. It's like marrying a policeman."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"How does it feel?
I feels exactly like one of those dreams in which you suddenly realize that you have to take a test you haven't studied for and you aren't wearing any clothes. And you've left your wallet at home.
When I am out there, in time, I am inverted, changed into a desperate version of myself. I become a thief, a vagrant, an animal who runs and hides. I startle old women and amaze children. I am a trick, an illusion of the highest order, so incredible that I am actually true."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

"We are walking down the street holding hands. There is a playground at the end of the block, and I run to the swings and I climb on and Henry takes the one next to me facing the opposite direction. And we swing higher and higher passing each other, sometimes in synch and sometimes streaming past each other so fast that it seems we are going to collide. And we laugh and laugh, and nothing can ever be sad, no one can be lost or dead or far away. Right now we are here and nothing can mar our perfection or steal the joy of this perfect moment."
Audrey Niffenegger (The Time Traveler's Wife)

weakness

what's wrong with letting a few others know our weaknesses? that we are currently weak. i think there is nothing wrong with that.

anyway, i'm still undergoing chronic depression until this day...reason? many things, many happenings. i have no idea how to cure it, i think only time knows what to do. no instant painkiller babe.

the veronicas - untouched

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkko-3N_iOM

I feel so untouched and I want you so much
That I just can't resist you, it's not enough to say that i miss you
I feel so untouched right now, need you so much
Somehow I can't forget you, I've gone crazy from the moment i met you

 

somehow the song has become my morning wakeup call. listen to upbeat music, it's good for for stress management!

Proverbs of the day

Proverbs 19 (English Standard Version)

 1(A) Better is a poor person who(B) walks in his integrity
   than one who is crooked in speech and is a fool.
2Desire[a] without knowledge is not good,
   and whoever(C) makes haste with his feet misses his way.

3When a man’s folly(D) brings his way to ruin,
   his heart(E) rages against the LORD.
4(F) Wealth brings many new friends,
   but a poor man is deserted by his friend.
5(G) A false witness will not go unpunished,
   and he who(H) breathes out lies will not escape.
6Many seek the favor of a generous man,[b]
   and everyone is a friend to a man who gives(I) gifts.
7(J) All a poor man’s brothers hate him;
   (K) how much more do his friends go far from him!
He pursues them with words, but does not have them.[c] 8(L) Whoever gets sense loves his own soul;
   he who keeps understanding will(M) discover good.
9(N) A false witness will not go unpunished,
   and he who(O) breathes out lies will perish.
10(P) It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury,
   much less for(Q) a slave to rule over princes.
11(R) Good sense makes one slow to anger,
   and it is his glory to overlook an offense.
12A king’s wrath is like(S) the growling of a lion,
   but his(T) favor is like(U) dew on the grass.
13(V) A foolish son is ruin to his father,
   and(W) a wife’s quarreling is(X) a continual dripping of rain.
14(Y) House and wealth are inherited from fathers,
   but a prudent wife is(Z) from the LORD.
15(AA) Slothfulness casts into(AB) a deep sleep,
   and(AC) an idle person will suffer hunger.
16Whoever(AD) keeps the commandment keeps his life;
   he who despises his ways will die.
17(AE) Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the LORD,
   and he(AF) will repay him for his(AG) deed.
18(AH) Discipline your son, for there is hope;
   do not set your heart on(AI) putting him to death.
19A man of great wrath will pay the penalty,
   for if you deliver him, you will only have to do it again.
20Listen to advice and accept instruction,
   that you may gain wisdom in(AJ) the future.
21(AK) Many are the plans in the mind of a man,
   but(AL) it is the purpose of the LORD(AM) that will stand.
22What is desired in a man is steadfast love,
   and a poor man is better than a liar.
23The fear of the LORD(AN) leads to life,
   and whoever has it rests(AO) satisfied;
   he will(AP) not be visited by harm.
24(AQ) The sluggard buries his hand in(AR) the dish
   and will not even bring it back to his mouth.
25(AS) Strike(AT) a scoffer, and the simple will(AU) learn prudence;
   (AV) reprove a man of understanding, and he will gain knowledge.
26He who does violence to his father and chases away his mother
   is(AW) a son who brings shame and reproach.
27Cease to hear instruction, my son,
   (AX) and you will stray from the words of knowledge.
28A worthless witness mocks at justice,
   and the mouth of the wicked(AY) devours iniquity.
29Condemnation is ready for(AZ) scoffers,
   and(BA) beating for the backs of fools.

oops, i did it again

why is it so hard being a fashionista...

damn it, i bought that Guess dress in the end. It is sooo hard having an appetite for high street label, rejecting everything else that don't suit my style. esp cheap fabrics and bad tailorings, i can't stand them anymore. some more the trends are always changing from year to year. this is especially true for high street clothings. truthfully, i haven't been shopping for any designer label, but this is already bad enough. i don't deserve the luxury. i have a bad feeling that i have unconsciously increased my own standard of living these days. i must practice discipline to note down every spending from now on...and i need structured schedule for daily life as well...maybe i should sign up for that yoga class? or any other exercise classes? hmm...this might be a psychological disorder at the mildest level.

the weekend getaway summary

ate so much good and expensive food, strutted around orchard road in the middle of hot afternoons while everybody else were working, took cozy naps, listened to my mom's snores, had nice chitchats with my family, slacked, and fell sick on monday, but recovered on tuesday. that's almost all about it.

friends and blogs

people really can make friends through blogs! awesome...yeah esp when it's actually those readers who know the most about you and your life...not anyone else. I guess when we're from the same nationality and mother tongue, things still can work eventhough we don't see each other in daily life. Not trying to be racist, but I used to feel strange about being really good friends with some Mexicans or white American girls through some anime forum when I was in high school.

post-Fame

Ella Fitzgerald - Someone to watch over me

Theres a saying old, says that love is blind
Still were often told, seek and ye shall find
So Im going to seek a certain lad Ive had in mind

Looking everywhere, havent found him yet
Hes the big affair I cannot forget
Only man I ever think of with regret

Id like to add his initial to my monogram
Tell me, where is the shepherd for this lost lamb?

Theres a somebody Im longin to see
I hope that he, turns out to be
Someone wholl watch over me

Im a little lamb whos lost in the wood
I know I could, always be good
To one wholl watch over me

Although he may not be the man some
Girls think of as handsome
To my heart he carries the key

Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

(bridge)

Wont you tell him please to put on some speed
Follow my lead, oh, how I need
Someone to watch over me

Someone to watch over me

P.S. I think the movie is way underrated and that it is great...not only as a musical, but the whole storyline is much more serious than High School Musical...gotta go watch it for yourself!

Here's the Asher Book version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zT_dCj33Orc

choleric sanguine

i've just realized that I had always been attracted to phleg guys...and mostly it's them also who're also attracted to me. I dunno why...could be because they looked more cool since they don't talk too much. I think I need someone with a choleric sanguine personality instead! why choleric sanguine? firstly choleric to overcome my own choleric personality. Usually I can trust someone more choleric than me to share some of the workload. secondly sanguine to give me some optimism to live life more joyfully. I think I won't mind sanguine melancholic as well, just like the character Marco in Fame. what a sweet guy...would certainly melt my heart.

maybe in the end i won't care about all this crap =P ? haha

had the most disturbing nightmare last night. i let a family member went on murdering some other family one by one. was a witness on where all the corpses were kept. worst is, i kept everything secret. that was the most disturbing nightmare ever, i swear.

there's something truly wrong lately. mungkin berkaitan dengan pekerjaan. tapi gak bs dibahas disini. or else ingatan dari film2 thriller selama ini...

a poem by maya angelou

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …

enough money within her control to move out

and rent a place of her own,

even if she never wants to or needs to …

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

something perfect to wear if the employer,

or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour..

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

a youth she’s content to leave behind…

a past juicy enough that she’s looking forward to

re-telling it in her old age…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

one friend who always makes her laugh

and one who lets her cry…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

a good piece of furniture not previously owned

 by anyone else in her family

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems,

and a recipe for a meal.

that will make her guests feel honored…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE…

a feeling of control over her destiny…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

how to quit a job,

break up with a lover,

and confront a friend without;

ruining the friendship…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW

when to try harder..

and WHEN TO WALK AWAY…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

that she can’t change the length of her calves,

the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

that her childhood may not have been perfect… but it’s over…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

what she would or wouldn’t do for love or more…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

how to live alone… even if she doesn’t like it…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

whom she can trust,

whom she can’t,

and why she shouldn’t take it personally…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

where to go…

be it to her best friend’s kitchen table…

or a charming Inn in the woods…

when her soul needs soothing…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…

what she can and can’t accomplish in a day…

a month… or a year…

finding a short term boyfriend is easy, but finding a guy who would stick with you no matter what until marriage is difficult.

vice versa for a girlfriend.

bottomline: make sure you cherish the only wife/husband that you have if you've found one.

in the middle of a serious decision making moment which will affect the next 4-5 years of my life...

sigh, life as an adult in the early mid-20s, not easy...

c'mon daisy, this is exactly the time you can practice some control over your destiny.
