Richie’s Rants!

To the complainer who complain I didn’t blog, I blogged…

Anyway, an ex-gf of mine called and chatted for a bit. Realise that this seems to be a prevalent problem for a lot of my female friends in that a lot of guys out there are players. Unfortunately for them… I’ve always told them the same advice and that is to find someone whom she’s happy with, BUT don’t plunge so quickly into a relationship. Must always test the water and work it out from a friend’s perspective first before jumping into the water.

Current courtship methods normally bypass the friendship level. Is it due to Generation X methods? I’m not sure but I do believe that being friends, and understanding each other before moving on is really important.

In the end, she came to the conclusion as some of my other friends and that is to distrust love. Is simple love really so hard to find? Unfortunately, I guess it’s much harder for girls, especially as they get older. It’s a sad and practical fact of life that as the girl ages, it’s harder to get a good partner, so having high standards in finding a bf is also a must, I guess.

Advise to girls: Even though the guy seems perfect at first sight, spend some time to know him as a friend. Only as a friend, would you be able to see how he is like. He might be able to hide his feelings well but if you insult him or make fun of him… Test his response! If he really likes you, he would endure the insults because he’s willing to endure it because he really likes you. If he can’t take it… have second thoughts because he might not like you enough to be able to overcome his own ego. Normally at loggerheads, guys won’t give in because of their ego. They feel that they’re superior to the ladies and would you want a guy like that? Food for thought.

There are times when I wish that life is a much more simpler place. Living in a nice farmland in New Zealand, without much shopping or people to piss the hell out of you.

As of now, whenever I’m in a bad mood, I always feel like flying a small plane once again just to enjoy. You can go where you want to without people telling you what to do or where to go. It’s a beautiful life and one in which I misses dearly, especially when in Sydney at 2005. Best year of my life, even though it passes very quickly.

What a reverie. Do animals think of their past or experience, I wonder. And if they do, what would they think of? Hmm… Probably to lazy to look it up on the ‘Net but will probably do so when I’m more alert. Just had an extremely horrible drinking session where I puked from 0400 to 1315. Yes, it’s the pits… Chivas + Beer is downright stupid!

It’s 8am and I am a zombie. Didn’t sleep too late, in fact, I slept earlier than usual at 2am but still, I manage to get up at 7am. Heck, why am I torturing myself so? I’ll probably crawl back into bed somewhere in the late morning/early afternoon before I go to work again tonight. Unusually enough, I’m wide awake as if expecting action and is rearing to go. Maybe, my old light-sleeper trait is coming back again, Heaven forbids! That means a little movement anywhere near me is sufficient to keep me awake and make me alert. I HATED that. Can’t sleep like a pig anymore. Maybe it’s good too cause I’m getting fat.

Ok, time to go back to my martial training though with my hectic work schedule, I doubt it’s possible.   =(   Sigh, how I wish life is so much more simpler without any additional worries. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my job but, still… there seems to be something missing from it. I can’t figure it out yet…

Come to think of it, I seem to be blogging slightly more now. I think it’s in part thanks to a friend of mine, who recommended blogging instead of clubbing to vent my frustrations. Like I mentioned in my previous post, am too old to club! Not really frustrated or feel like ranting now, but guess I’ll try to make it a habit here so that I can cut down on my drinking!
