my heart can't breathe when I hear you say it's better this way - malacca post/ pictures in prev entry-
Wasn't at all surprised when I heard of news that a friend (lets call this friend A) has gone back to following A's own heart albeit going against the norms of society, the wrath of people A might incur and the rage that will ensue if related parties ever caught a whiff of it.
Prior to that happening I did meet up with A once for dinner, when A described to me about doing the right thing, it all seemed as though A was trying to convince me as much as A was trying to convince A's self. First I wondered if A was pressured into doing something A know will only keep A existing but not living. A was listing qualities of A's partner but not linking the qualities as the reasons why A fell for that partner. I asked A, are you happy? And A said, I guess, I think I should be la.. XX is a good person, XX likes my family including my pet. I thought to myself, A seemed almost sad although XX has a heart of gold and would drop anything at an instant just to be by A's side. Im not saying A's former partner was bad, it was more of other external reasons which occurred which forced A into leaving albeit reluctantly.
A's story seems to have a happily ever after ending and I do want to see that as well since A is such a dear friend to me. A's story got me thinking if every love story has the same kind of ending whereby the person involved eventually followed his or her heart. That love somehow has a funny way of finding two people who were meant to be together to find each other again despite people or society scoffing at the reunion. We all want fairy tale endings but at the end of it, would we follow what our heart tell us or would we follow what other people’s heart tell us. I would choose the former simply because im a firm believer in love. How about you. You decide.
When I look into your eyes I can see a love restrained But darlin' when I hold you Don't you know I feel the same We've been through this such a long long time Just tryin' to kill the pain But lovers always come and lovers always go And no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
If we could take the time to lay it on the line I could rest my head Just knowin' that you were mine All mine So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain Or I'll just end up walkin' In the cold November rain
So never mind the darkness We still can find a way 'Cause nothin' lasts forever Even cold November rain November Rain -Guns N' Roses

Was in Malacca over the weekend for a department trip.. pretty fun albeit tiring.. everything was scheduled much to my dismay as im really much of a bum when im holidaying.. toatlly loathe schedules.. but it was fun.. We did tourist-y stuff and took quite abit of pictures. The guys were sloshed and all their hilarious antics started appearing.. drank at the weirdest places and watched the Bandits perform despite the fact that they were smashed from all the alcohol they consumed.. some pictures of the trip...

If I got down on my knees and I pleaded with you If I crossed a million oceans just to be with you Would you ever let me down?
If I climbed the highest mountain just to hold you tight If I said that I would love you every single night Would you ever let me down?
Well I'm sorry if it sounds kinda sad, it's just that Worried, so worried that you let me down Because I love you, love you Because I love you -Shakin' Stevens
