The Heartbroken Clan


What a boring day.. It seems that my mind is not working again. Nadia went for conference in Beijing for a week, and I have the room for myself, alone. Which is something supposedly fine by me, but apparently not. Been cracking my head whole day doing write ups but the ideas are just stuck in there, regulating between the neurons without any result. Dr M went for entrepreneurial workshop in Tanjung Keling. This means I've gotta walk to and fro for work for the next three days. Perhaps it's a good time to burn some calories..

Some breakup stories from friends again.. Starting from my own breakup, there has been a number of them facing the same fate. Hah, maybe it's contagious, just like the bird flu virus. Oh.. bout bird flu, Indonesia just recorded 2 cases of human to human transmission of birdflu. Seems like the 'little fellow' has mutated again. Evil little things.. Should be more careful nowadays.

Yep, back to the breakup story. Another friend has regain her 'single and available' status again. It was a sad case of long distance relationship again. Another couple of 7 yrs broke up too. One could only ponder how 7 years of love, trust and understanding can be so fragile? The culprit was "having different vision and dreams"... It's 7 years man! But maybe, there's a reason of why it happened. Just wish their life would be better in the future. Just hope that all of the members, old and new in our "Heartbroken Clan" will be strong enough to go through yet another lesson in life.

Come to think of it, being single is not bad at all. I've already met few people who vowed for lifetime bachelorship. hahahaha...... I just felt lonely sometimes, especially when all of your friends are out with their other halves, or when they are talking about how "being loved and cared" they felt. But at least, it allows me all the freedom to do whatever i want, and not worrying about neglecting someone else. Talking about self-defense mechanisms. Anyhow, relationships come and gone, some developed deeper and ended in marriage and raise a family together, while some decided to give it a break.

Just wondering how does the perfect relationship looks like? How does the older generations get to maintain it so well, being married with the same partner for ages, as in their vow of "till death do us part"... while in our times, people are struggling to keep their marriages, and divorce and breaking up is so easy? One could only wonder...

Sometimes when i see old couples holding hands, walking together, side by side, caring for each other, looking over each other's shoulder just to make sure the other one is safe.. i couldnt help but smile. I envied so much the bonding between them.. That's what i call love..

My Donkey

Remember the annoying, big mouthed yet good in nature Donkey in Shrek and Shrek 2? Can you remember any friends that resembles the Donkey? And seriously, I DO NOT MEAN PHYSICALLY!!! Recently, I've come to realized that there are lots of " Donkeys " in my life. Don't feel offended if I'm referring anyone as a donkey, coz do put in mind that at the same time, I'm an Ogre too. Yep, it's funny how some friends tend to annoyed us so much that we would like to tell them to shut their mouth sometimes! They will keep on going just to keep us annoyed even you've give out all the possible signals and hints that you're really not in the mood to join in their play. But their patience is somewhat last for eternity. They'll follow you around just to keep you in their watching distance. Although some may not resembled the loud Donkey in Shrek, but they do have other ways to annoy you. I have this particular friend who were so choosy and annoying, and somet...

Whirlwind

It has been a whirlwind like for the past month. Had a depresive episode and anxiety attack last month, and still recovering from it. This is not the first time in depression, but it scares me alot compare to the last one some 12 years ago. I find myself gasping for air, reaching out for help, so that i can stay afloat in the midst of darkness and drowining. I remembered Kel alot during the past month or so.. the mental image of him lifeless, reminds me again and again, that I need to hang on in there, and put in effort to be alive. I am thankful to God in many ways, to give me the courage to walk out from this unscathed. Rather, I was given the chance to learn who I am as a person. I was exposed to my own shortcomings even when I refuse to see it, I was challenged to 'let go' to things and emotional burden that I have been carrying all this while. I spoke to more people in the past month then I ever spoke to in the year before. I knew I was desperate, and I needed to see and...

Anger Management

M   : Aunty Sharon, I am angry now.. Me : Why? What happened? M   : Daddy wanted to share my biscuits, I don't want to. Me : What should we do when we are angry? M   :....... Me : Let's breath, and count. M   : Ok Aunty Sharon.. Me : Breath, 1.... Breath... M   : 2... Breath, 3..... Breath 4....(chuckle) Me : Are you ok now? Are you still angry? M   : No, its funny! (Burst out laughing) 13 days in to Movement Control Order, I have spent a lot of time with Matia for the past 13 days. This little boy is turning 5 this year, struggled with some TV addiction, but he did so well today. From spending time playing on his own, painting, trying to read (even when he complains it is difficult), eating lunch by his own without leaving the table, taking in the vegetables which he usually manage to pick out with his tongue, and yes... anger management. We found that he was talking spitefully to both his parents on every small rejection...
