DISQUS

quaintly: The Peanut Butter Cup Lipbalm

  • zj · 1 year ago
    Human beings are indeed, always looking after themselves at first priority. And the instincts always always failed us, at least for me. And thats when i sleep through the whole night just to move along.

    Yet, the warm of distance between human do exist. And sometimes, it just takes you more than a decade to know but you'll know eventually. Those small memoirs you included are the existing trace of proof. :)

    And yes fish DO mind voice. Nemo!

    Sigh complicated universe.

    I won't comment on the trust thingi as I myself have major trust issues and I'm probably one of the lousiest listeners out there. This is like a no comment comment haha .

    it seems to me the process of growing older..... friendship just doesn't occur naturally anymore, it takes so much effort and yet has none of the quality one used to take for granted, people are too busy trying to appear self-sufficient and independent. nothing sticks. easy come easy go. not like in pri. sch, can threaten DUN FWEN U and reap desired results :p

    Even being 17, I'm facing really hypocritical people. I have had a "friend" who pretends to listen to me bawl and my painful story. She only needed a hug and a packet of tissue into making me think my secret's secured with her. But noooo, big mistake! Because the next day, the whole school knew. -____- Wtfness, I know. (I am smarter now. Eh heh!)

    HOWEVAARR,

    There ARE people who look out for us. Those that really care. They do exist! It's okay to trust someone! :D But you have to make very, very sure they are the ones who genuinely hope to see you do good. And happy. :) Although difficult to find, they are there. :) Have faith, Su Ann!

    *throws you good luck for mid-terms!* :D :D

    Soooo trueee!!!
    I have a friend who dislike me or mayb hate me still pretend to be nice to me. She even said that she treats me like a sister?!!
    BUT I KNOW SHE DON'T LIKE ME!!! (some incident happened)
    Why even pretend then? Why not just stop pretending?

    T_T fucking hate this. two face no good person.

    On the bright side, there are still people who really CARES! :)

    Apparently, once you step into uni, you can hardly find someone you can trust. No one cares about you. They will walk away leaving you feeling lost and don't even feel guilty about it. They will complain to you about what others do to them but will never once look at what they do to others or even you.

    And there you are, feeling pity for them till you are so sick of it one day, you decided to close the door and just be alone. I've seen selfish people but here in uni, they are the ultimate selfish people. Seriously, I am shocked to see such people around.

    In your life, you'll perhaps find one or two you can totally trust and that's about it. I guess we should not be greedy. We can never expect people to be standing by us and supporting us and keep our secrets. We should really buy chicken and give as offerings if we have a handful.

    do what i do. try the donald duck therapy.

    step 1. redirect all your blood to your head. make sure your head turns blood red and grows to at least triple the size.

    step 2. start blabbering unintelligible swearing while waving your fists in the air. (jumping violently is optional)

    step 3. with speed of light, circle your antagonizing target in a cloud of smoke while continuing to wave/swing your fists like a mad duck.

    step 4. this is when you realize you are not a duck, and you have just gave yourself a couple hits with your own fists. thus you sit down and decide to let it go, forgive the barbarous, inconsiderate ninkampoops, and tell yourself, you shall not be further burdened by thoughts of their betrayal. you shall not have your emotional strength drained by their hate-inducing actions. its not worth your time. they'r not worth another second of your thought. isnt it better to spend that inny-meenie-brain-strength to think how lovely the colors of autumn is... how cute that squirrel amongst the fallen leaves is...

    spare your thoughts for more productive uses. think of what you can do to make someone else's day. im sure its much more satisfying than negative thoughts of hate. i dont know 'bout you, but to hate is blardy tiring. try grouching. it works for me. bah! look what you made me do! i nearly forgot to sound grouchy! bah! i hate you!

    can we just stop at step 3? ^^
  • sixthseal.com · 1 year ago
    I have noticed that too - back in high school, friends were just friends. Now, in working life, "friends" are more like people you need a favor from or might need one from in the future and vice versa.

    Everyone seems so superficial, and relationships are not as good as it was back in the days. It's like a system of using each other for things instead of actually liking each other.

    I think I can count the number of real friends I have in one hand.

    All the best Su Ann, and cheer up! Muaks! Take care!
  • sweatlee · 1 year ago
    i trust people too too easily and i forgive people easily too, so i never know who to trust or not so i end up trusting everyone anyway. do u get what i mean? i think i'm still not grown up yet but i like my world like this now
  • MIchelle · 1 year ago
    Friendship becomes difficult overtime. I have this new flatmate who tells me that I should socialize more and put down this barrier of mine and to learn how to trust again. She's a great person but sometime's I question myself, if the world is really that nice. But she says that with all the expectations we made, and most failed, we will be able to glean a handful of jewels out of it. It takes time.

    No matter how cruel the world is, there's still some worth your attention.

    I hope you'll come over this, Su Ann.

    "it’s been a long night. i feel hazy. i really hate this feeling of losing control. as i slipped under, i struggled to ask myself, do the fish mind the noise?"

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Yes. STOP CRYING DAMN IT LET THE FISHIES SLEEP. Pooor poor fishies. :(

    Probably another case of guy gets angry over a perceived 'cheating' girlfriend and does something hateful, then the whole circle of friends feed on the gossip while a small percentage of truly caring people pick a side and show needed support... and the so called 'war' begins. Blargghhh. No thank you.

    I SAY WE ALL FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE OF THIS SHINING YOUNG LADY BELOW. >:D

    Every thing happens for a reason. Just be patient and in time, those reasons will be answered for you. Sometimes, the big question is 'Why is this happening to me?'. The answer to the question is, every day that we wake up, we are gaining incredible knowledge, experience and wisdom. Cherish these moments, hold them close to your heart, for these are the lessons of life.

    Live today, for today only, as you cannot change yesterday or begin to understand tomorrow.

  • Irene · 1 year ago
    i guess as we grow older, we start walking towards different paths in our lives, and we start changing our priorities. and for some people, friendship simply do not place as high a position in their lives as it used to. and somehow, they've moved on, but we haven't. we're stuck in the same spot, abandoned, betrayed. and then we move on, except we don't.

    our memories, our experiences stay with us, shape us, make us who we are. these experiences aren't pleasant and they hurt deeply. all we can do is breathe, walk away and truly, move on.
  • Jinny · 1 year ago
    sighhh. some of the sentences u put up there really fits with what i'm going through now, only it has nothing to do with guys, just a friend. a while ago i felt so lost and despaired that i really needed to talk to someone, but there was no one that was right, you know what i mean? i got over it myself after reading some funny stuffs. i suspect that it will come back to haunt me soon, but after reading some of the comments your readers left, i'm hoping not =) i think you're awesome, and there'll always be people who will betray you for no reasonable reason, but i guess if you stop trusting people completely then you'll have lost, even though this isn't really a game at all.

    i hope you're okayyy. it's all right to take time to be miserable about the shit that happens, but if you take too long a time then it'll be a waste for you. cheer up yeahh =)
  • thegeekinpink · 1 year ago
    So I've been watching gossip girls and it occured to me that's my high school life, except that I was the alienated Blair in season 1 episode 13 for the entire five years. Then it never occured to me that the whole world is like that, with very few exceptions of the people in our lives. Hungry, selfish, eating off its own pack of friends.

    I'm a very socially inept person in general, I clam up in groups of people, picking friends choosing people to talk to. Then I realise those are the people who I shouldn't be talking to in the first place because they draw up the memories of high school.

    Then I realise the people who matter, they're the ones who appear in your life out of the blue. There's not too much effort yet a lot of effort. Cherish those.

    i am blessed with many loyal frens. and i am indeed grateful.

    pizza was never on my menu until my uni-days. i was a village sua-ku. hahaha...
  • kreazi · 1 year ago
    Did I spot a haloween pumpkin there? Hehehehe.. Don't get too upset with troubles and pain that friends inflict upon urself. Part and parcel of life I would say. You're only 20... as life's "surprises" unfold when you get older each year, you will find that there are bigger things you should worry yourself sick with :P Happy or not, also have to live on, right? Cheer up LIM SU ANN!

  • Charlie · 1 year ago
    Goodness. What happened??

    I don't really know what advice to give; I have terrible trust issues as well and I don't know how to get rid of them. But I can offer you some sympathy and reassurance that I'm not waiting for you to drop dead so I can pick at your bones.

    i only get a part of your post but the thing about friends - we always start with a whole lot but only so few will be there to hear about our 37th dye job to keep the gray hairs from sight.

    but there'll always be at least one person we can trust without having to think twice. and there're gonna be those who're seen more as a burden than the friend he/she once was. i think of it as like springcleaning, 'cept it doesn't happen as often. not that i like cutting off contact with friends but some of us've changed so much it's as if we don't even speak the same language anymore.
  • aya · 1 year ago
    this is irrelevant but.. you found peanut butter cup lip balm?
  • No.44444 · 1 year ago
    I think Pinkpau is obsessive with her lip balms. Especially peanut butter flavor wow it's really quite delicious. She will apply and apply and apply it, even though it's completely pointless, the first time is already enough !

    Therefore it is a reference of this situation, eventhough she realizes that she cannot do anything to remedy the situation, she still worries about it. Endlessly.

    I SAY WE ALL FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE OF THIS SHINING YOUNG LADY BELOW. >:D

  • Michelle · 1 year ago
    i agree with you. it's not about no one you can trust. perhaps, you should put it this way *no one you should trust*. i guess this might make you feel better. at least you dont need to feel upset when someone betrays you. *hugs* you will feel fine once again, dear. tomorrow will be a better day, cheers! :)

    PInkpau, you are so hot, smart and sweet. I have been reading this blog for about 4 months now. Not sure how I found it originally, and I am not a blog reader, but I think I love you!
