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..

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.
