Penned it all here.
Those Family 'Get-togethers' - Not because I was lazy or something to reason myself out to not update a few days ago. Well, I even made a promise with myself to update daily if possible. Actually, I have been out late at night with my family.
As much as sometimes it feels awkward to actually seat at the dining area with your family as compared to sitting at the dining area with your close friends. Well, the only reason to it is as such is because even though you are blood related, you are not as closed to your family as to you and your friends. This 'awkward-ness' shouldn't be felt as far as you are part of you family. I've learned from it a few months ago. Having to always be home rarely because of practices or such, and now, things just gets better with my family.
Anyhoo, I have been out with my family and my neighbour, basically my relatives! Yeah, my they are my neighbours. Just a few houses down. Every night, either families would drop by to the other home. To an extend, it feels as though we both own two homes, seriously.
Since it is just nearby, we dropped by at E-hub for a bowl a few nights ago. I was just there to watch actually :P I mean, I was so shagged! Right after practice, on the way home, they called and said to hurry back and drop by to my cousins' place and go bowling with them. Obviously, too tired to bowl :P
Also, the night after that, we had a very late dinner at Swensens! Wait, more like we headed there just for ice-cream :) Also, the Airport was just a five minutes drive away anyways. Gosh, I totally like where I am staying now.
Anyhoo, I ordered my all time favourite Sticky Chewy Chocolate! Thanks to twitter, my followers gave suggestions :) Namely some would be Yayat and Kane :P Both ended up fighting and in the end, and gave me a 'smack' because I chose none of their suggestions :P Yayat said Earthquake, Kane said Celebrity Brownie :P Sorry you both! I still can't resist my all time favourite right? :P
I am just really thankful with the family I have.
Pride vs Arrogance - We are all gifted or talented in our own different ways. It just depends as to whether we end up discovering them. Have you ever thought Susan Boyle would have one of the world's greatest vocals around? Exactly.
If anyone would ever to see anyone showcasing their very own talent, no matter who that person is, be it a stranger or what so ever, we would end up feeling proud for him/her. Happy. But, do you know what turns you off after that? Their noses get figuratively higher. They feel like as though they're on the top of the world, and the people around them are small fries compared to them. Somehow or rather, no matter if you choose to or not, they end up being 'big-headed'.
Everyone is guilty. Even I would say that I was ever in that position. Pride is just something that is rather hard to tame. In a sense that humility isn't 'stronger' or 'bigger' to balance the pride. Once it doesn't balance, and pride is heavier, arrogance sips in. If humility is heavier, humble-ness sips in.
Simply said, there is nothing wrong to have pride as long as humility is present.
Messed up - That is pretty much how it is in my mind. It just really suck, big time. I am the type of person that, if I plan to get something done, it has to be done. If not, it will remain stuck in my mind and I can never focus on anything else.
The thing is, what makes matters worse is that there are external 'stuffs' that disallow completion. That is unfair. We always like to say 'That is not fair. This is unfair" Well, look at ourselves. Aren't you a reason for that? Come on, it takes two hands to clap. Then again, God damn it, it takes one to start.
I am just disappointed of why people always make assumptions. Disappointed, and very irritated. And how selfish people are nowadays. How not thoughtful they are. And how people always think the world revolves like how they like or want it to be.
