Never argue with an IDIOT... Others can't tell the difference.

My gal pal (on left) is Ivy. I am Serene (on right). We've known each other 17 years and counting... Ivy's my best gal pal. Y are we here? I came up with the idea of a blog together, and she's my partner in crime.. as in most things.. hahaha ;) Life is too short to miss someone, some fun, some ventures, some plans... Do wat u wana do. Leave no room for regret. :) Happiness is a choice. If u want to be happy, be.

Like-minded souls in the midst of a giant rat race... ...

I'm DELIGHTED recently! I have met more and more frens and ppl who are like-minded souls to myself! Ppl who are not ALL about engaging in the rat race, who care about QUALITY of life, free time, freedom. Ppl who RESPECT others' choices and lifestyles and dun make COMPARISONS or JUDGE u for it.

See, when WE talk about quality of life, it's not about being able to go on holidays or trips, or being able to take up golf or go to the golf courses or country clubs, or driving a BMW, or staying in a condo or a big house. It's about doing wat we want to do for ourselves, enjoying the process of doing it, about have time, free time to LEAD the life we want.

To so many ppl, life is jus an endless pursuit of monetary gains and material comforts. They strive for bigger cars, bigger houses, fatter salaries, more luxurious holidays... Golf can be a passion but it's also a high class sport, a mark of their status... As "someone" puts it.. it's all so superficial. No wonder i am sick of ppl asking me "Isn't it a waste of ur paper for u to be in ur job?".. "How long can u be in tis job?"... "How much can u earn?" ... "If u're in some other job/ industry, how much can u earn eventually?"... "U shd be practical.." ... "Look for better bf.. " ...etc etc. Sure, most times ppl mean well. But sometimes they can sound mean doing it..

It's no wonder tat i'm so delighted to find more and more of like-minded souls who are outside of such thinking! :)

Frank and Raymond are some of them. Altho i knew Frank for quite long, only recently did we hang out together and it's nice to find tat he has a set of different thinking from the guys. He told me not to be brainwashed by wat others said to me. Cheers to tat! :)

Another person is "someone" i 'found' again. I find tat we have similar thinking.. dint tell him tat tho.. still shy.. hehe :)
I wish him all the best and may he never be bogged down by society's pressures again ever.
