uurrgghh.. personally i am not a fan of this way of meeting new prospective people. or even trying to arrange for a date between two perfect strangers. frankly i think that it is degrading for both parties, as i feel that love can be found anywhere, if they really allow it or actually want to find it in the first place. i blame it on the over zealous and over excited and over worried parents who think that their bachelor sons and spinster daughters would die a lonely death without their partners, or maybe a handful of children beside their death bed.
seriously!!??
i do hope that when my children gets to that age i would not be this type of parent and intrude into their lives. i would also want my children to be independent and have their own place when they have made their own money, especially the boys. do not get me wrong though. i expect them to come and visit me, if can every week and all. but the idea of them staying in the house, hogging the tv and expecting their parents still to provide for them is really lame. forgive me for my bluntness. but this so reminds me of that movie from Matthew McConaughey, Failure To Launch. seriously la guys.
on another matter, what's up with people who do not smoke, drink, curse etc etc, then do it the end just so they be a part of the gang?? i mean why so spineless? where did all their policy and standing in life went to? just to fit in, they do the same thing that they did not agree to in the first place. gosh. i mean, we are not teenagers anymore. we can think rationally right? so why the stupidity? blah!
ok enough already. i think my babe can sense the emotion overload here. must think happy thoughts and phased out the anger.
relax....

Hey Ed,
Wahh...what triggered this outburst la? :)
Quite honestly, i don't think there's anything wrong with speed dating and stuff but i don't agree with the pressure bestowed upon the singletons for not finding a partner.
In fact, i reckon i'm gonna try it too. For those whose lives seems to revolve around work, i'm afraid the social aspect is quite stunted so i actually find that the speed dating stuff to be quite interesting. One guy i know spent so much time at work that when he felt he had achieved what he needed to achieve in work, he asked his friend to set him up and today they are happily married with his then set-up date:)
But yea- i also think kids esp boys shud be kicked out of the house when they are already earning their own money...it's good for the parents AND the kids themselves :) Thats my take la.
On another note, hows the lovely mummy doing? You must be glowing!!
aiyo, i think yesterday's outburst was a case of a horrible hormone imbalance. it comes in waves. ;D
pregnancy this time is tough i should say. i dislike crowds, small places and walking or standing for more than an hour. if i do, i go giddy.
i think after october it should be ok. hopefully.
I love FTL! It's such a cute movie! Hehehe
