Let the baby cry

1620h
Feeling... brave
Happiness of the day: Smoothie on a hot day
Event of the week: 4 ushering assignments this week.

By the way, of the 2 exams I had last week, one went worse than I thought it would, and one went better than I thought it would. So hey, it all balances out. Life doesn't suck, but it isn't quite rosy either. Heh.

Stablity prevails... I still remember this personality test that was so popular a couple of years back. Something about prioritising A) to console a crying baby, B) to pick up a ringing phone, C) to answer the doorbell and D) to turn off the gas for a kettle of boiling water. It tells of the qualities that one looks for in a relationship. Through the years, I'm quite sure one's answer changes, regardless of what kind of personality test it is. After all, as one matures, perceptions and preferences change. Typically, a sweet romantic girl would choose to pick the baby up first. Yes, love is the most important in a relationship. What's there, if there's no love, one may argue. The sound of a crying baby is just too heart breaking to let it go on, someone told me before.

But me, no..the baby can cry, but I have to turn the gas off first. Sense of security is always the most important to me. What's the point of love if it may disappear right the very next moment? What's the point of love if I have to hold on to it for dear life? What's the point of love if I cannot sleep soundly at night? I think I'm a boring person...cos then this means that I can never have a long distance relationship. I can never fall for a sailor [haha...yes, the image of sailors frequenting the bars by the port never fails me...]. And I can never fall for a harley-davidson biker [fast bike, fast women? not me. bleah.]

OK, so I'm a boring person. I'm a boring politically correct person who tries to be a good person, and live up to my parents' expectations of me. Now that I phrase it this way, the word to describe me is actually old-fashioned. Wow. Not exactly the most "in" image most young people like to project these days. But hey, at least I'm honest about it - I like stability. I like simple things in life. And for that reason, I know that I'll never do anything radical. Nope, nothing that will shake my life too off balance, because ultimately, I'll have to go back to equilibrium before I can function properly. I'm sure all who knows me well enough knows that when I don't function, I mean I really just waste my time away moping about nothing.

No regrets. I swear. Even if I think I'll die a nun. A nun, but at least I will be happily in peace with myself.
