Time flies. In an blink of an eye, it's the final year of my poly life. People have their own lives and life goes on.
On the way back home 74, I went to notice people sitting around me. First, there was this old man who sat by himself. He was looking out of window and probably thinking of the past in his life. It makes me sympathise him somehow cause he gave me the feeling of being alone.
Then I turned to another direction. I saw 3 couples of my age, all cuddling their own partners, whispering to each other and holding each other's hands. I look beside my seat. There was no one.
A thought hit my mind. Would I be alone and lonely like the old man when I'm old in the future? Or will I be cuddling, whispering and holding my life partner's hands who is sitting beside me when I'm old?

"I'll be there."
If you have ever had to call a friend in the middle of the night, to take a sick child to hospital, or when your car has broken down some miles from home, you will know how good it feels to hear the phrase "I'll be there." Being there for another person is the greatest gift we can give. When we are truly present for other people, important things happen to them and us. We are renewed in love and friendship. We are restored emotionally and spiritually. Being there is at the very core of civility.
"I miss you."
Perhaps more marriages could be saved and strengthened. If couples simply and sincerely said to each other "I miss you." This powerful affirmation tells partners they are wanted, needed, desired and loved. Consider how ecstatic you would feel, if you received an unexpected phone call from your spouse in the middle of your workday, just to say "I miss you."
“I respect you.”
Respect is another way of showing love. Respect conveys the feeling that another person is a true equal. If you talk to your children as if they were adults you will strengthen the bonds and become close friends. This applies to all interpersonal relationships.
“Maybe you’re right.”
This phrase is highly effective in diffusing an argument and restoring frayed emotions. The flip side to "maybe your right" is the humility of admitting, "Maybe I'm wrong". Let's face it. When you have a heated argument with someone, all you do is cement the other person's point of view. They, or you, will not change their stance and you run the risk of seriously damaging the relationship between you. Saying "maybe you're right" can open the door to further explore the subject, in which you may then have the opportunity to get your view across in a more rational manner.
“Please forgive me.”
Many broken relationships could be restored and healed if people would admit their mistakes and ask for forgiveness. All of us are vulnerable to faults, foibles and failures. A man should never be ashamed to own up that he has been in the wrong, which is saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was yesterday.
"I thank you."
Gratitude is an exquisite form of courtesy. People who enjoy the companionship of good, close friends are those who don't take daily courtesies for granted. They are quick to thank their friends for their many expressions of kindness. On the other hand, people whose circle of friends is severely constricted often do not have the attitude of gratitude.
"Count on me."
A friend is one who walks in when others walk out. Loyalty is an essential ingredient for true friendship; it is the emotional glue that bonds people. Those that are rich in their relationships tend to be steady and true friends. When troubles come, a good friend is there indicating you can "count on me."
“Let me help.”
The best of friends see a need and try to fill it. When they spot a hurt they do what they can to heal it. Without being asked, they pitch in and help.
"I understand you."
People become closer and enjoy each other more if they feel the other person accepts and understands them. Letting your spouse know in so many little ways that you understand them is one of the most powerful tools for healing your relationship. This applies to any relationship.
"I love you."
Perhaps the most important three words that you can say. Telling someone that you truly love them satisfies a person's deepest emotional needs; the need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. the need to belong, to feel appreciated and to be wanted. Your family, your friends and you, all need to hear those three little words.

Meaningful picture right? I think my blog is too plain without any pictures. That's why there were some pictures in my previous 2 entries. But this one is really awesome. So people, give your friends a hug when they are down. Who knows it may just brighten up their day right? (=
Okay talk about today. Friday the 13th. For those superstitious, this is a very unlucky day. I didn't know it was Friday the 13th until Vic told me last night.
My first unlucky shit: I was late for tutorial. It's not that I was never late before. But today, I really woke up early for class. But shit always happen. The bus broke down. First time in my life, I experienced a bus mounting the kerb while making a right turn. It reversed and moved and reversed again. A total of 4 times. It then broke down at the next stop.
Second unlucky shit: On the way back home from movie with Fang and Kevin (My Wife Is A Gangster 3), this guy 1 seat away from me just suddenly puked. Fucking gross. It was like shit coming out from his mouth. AWW EEWW! I stood up at once, offered my tissue, and went off to find another seat. O MY.
HAHA but luckily it's 2.15am now! SHITS ARE OVER!
