The Theory of 21 days..

I told myself not to think bout him. But it keeps coming back from time to time. The only improvement is, i'm not crying for him anymore.. I told myself i had enough of it.

A friend told me that i'll need at least 21 days to get over it. Why 21 days? Why not 10, 11 or 12? Why 21? She never answered me. Guess i'll need to find out myself. Let's see where i'll be after 21 days.

Perhaps this is how it's formulated:

1st 7 days (or the 1st week)
This is "The Mourning Period" where i'll feel anger, upset, guilt and all other negative emotions. Hating both myself and him, blaming all the secandary factors that cost me the break up. Should be going through the crying to bed moments. Sigh..Tough week ahead then..

2nd week (day 8-14)
Time to accept that we've break up. I'll remember all the sweet and painful moments that i've gone through. I guess i will stop hating him at this time, perhaps even loved him back for all the experiences and lifetime lessons. For this, i'll name it
"The Learning and Accepting Period".

3rd Week (day 15-21)
" The Getting Over You Period". I'll finally get over him. I'll live my life better than ever before. This is the period where i finally have the courage to hang out with friends and create new social ties with new people. Time to have fun again!

So. i guess i'll be fine in 3 weeks time.. Hmm.. interesting theory of the 21 days huh?

Disabled again..

Today.. is another sad day for me. They just disabled "e-messenger", which ended my pleasure of keeping in touch with friends lately. Sigh.. exactly 14 more days, and I'll be out. Just have to be patient. Had a long talk with my boss. Many things that we've talked through and I appreciate his acceptance over my rather harsh comment. We're more like friends now, rather than him being my boss, or me being his subordinate. Frankly, it's been a long 5 1/2 half months. Unhappy i may seem, but i do learn alot while working here. Strangely, i think i might even missed this place..

School No Fun!

"So, how many homeworks you have today?" "8." "How many done?" "4 more to go, with a spelling tomorrow and a dictation on Friday." "How are you doing today?" Face slammed to the pillow on the floor... "T...i...r....e...d...." Thats the usual conversation little Paul and I have everyday after school. 6, 7, sometimes 10 homeworks per day. Thats what little Paul is having everyday. Today, he cried over the tiredness of having to do so many work. Although he's more on the sensitive side, but still, is this how our education system deal with our kids? And, today, he brought a time table for examination through out the year, which the 1st exam will start on 13th February, 5 days before Chinese New Year. (WTF!!) That means he has to start studying the not-so-familiar words. 22 days into the new year, and he has to worried bout doing good in his exam. What's wrong with the teachers, school and the Ministry of Education itself?...

Stupidity

Life has been a mess for the past whole week. Juggling between work and family is not my strength. I certainly missed mum being around. He just lost his respect from all his children. He knew it before and he definitely knows it now. But he's just too arrogant to come back and admit that it's his fault that things turn out so badly. I confronted him for his actions last night. I have never raised my voice against him, but yesterday, it's just really unbearable. If I knew what happened later after I left, I would have screamed my lungs out and bring my brothers along with me. Last night, what you did is plainly stupid. Stupid, for leaving your family behind. Stupid, for seeking for comfort from others while your wife is here waiting at home. Stupid, for not caring over your children. Stupid, for ignoring your responsibility as a son, a husband and a father. You have definitely lost what you had all this while. All because of your ego, arrogance and stupidity.
