Many old blogger friends have also come and gone, making me view blogging as perhaps a transitional phase in our lives. Perhaps we need blogs in our teens and as we make the transition from school to work, but as we shed our skins and become working professionals, we tend to leave our blogger personalities behind. - Ridjal (Podah.com).

I guess both you and I have come to a conclusion that I have been a rather fickle blogger these past few months. In no way will I contest that opinion for even I accept that very fact. Five years ago, I would have no qualms in spending hours jotting down my thoughts and emotions. Today, things have changed.

Blogging no longer gives me the kicks like it used to, and I am no longer that interested in actively engaging myself in online communities. Likewise, an increase in statistics or monetary pay-off does not leave me with a sense of satisfaction. Thus, due to all of the above and so much more, I have decided to end the Fingersdontfing.com that all of you have come to love/hate.

I could have just left my last entry as the one before this, but because throughout these five years I have made numerous friends and acquaintances whose only means of ‘catching up’ with me is through this site, I feel that I should say a formal goodbye to everyone. After all, no one likes to be left hanging, yes?

(BTW no, this is not a joke. I’m downright serious. So please continue read this lengthy entry for these are the final words that I have to say. Thanks aight!)

Day in, day out, doing the exact same things just so that I can feed my needs. How I wish I could run away and have a good, long break, free of ANY responsibilities and just have a jolly good time…

Sadly life isn’t as such and well, a girl’s got to do what a girl’s got to do. Sigh… Wish I was a kid again :’(

Last Sunday my aunt opened her doors to her newly bought condo to all the relatives and I am totally floored with the place. Named Ris Grandeur (which was easy to locate, given that it was a stone throw’s away from Shaz’s place), I have to say I am IN LOVE with the location!

I campaign for a 4 days work week! This is so that the weekends will last for 3 days, leaving ample time for me to divide it between people close to heart. Friday for friends, Saturday for the boyfriend and Sunday for the family :) I think that the proportion is just nice and sounds more appealing as opposed to 5-2 which is SO unbalanced.

Anyone wanna vote me as the next MP? Kekeke…

P/s. ***** prices up 10% :( I just hope I can save up on time to avoid another rise in prices.

It is a common consensus that the Mrt holds host to many bewildering stories on human behavior. Other than the lively discussions we’ve had on Mrt Rides Part 1 and Part 2, a scroll through Stomp.sg will give one endless food for thought on what kind on characters exist in Singapore nowadays. For a moment I’d like to step aside from the chaos of depraved teenage boys or broken-hearted Minahs, and look at the ‘normal’ commuters aboard.

I think that many of us are in the same boat, where, bored out of our wits sitting in a seemingly endless journey, our eyes start roving about looking at the people around. While some like to give a once-over on a person’s clothes and move on, I have this thing where I would ’study’ the person. This means that I would look at his clothes, his behavior, and from there, make a deduction on his lifestyle or history.

Of course, I know in the end that my deductions are baseless and can never be proven, but it just gives me a kick to feel as if I can read this stranger sitting in front of me. I feel that if I keep this conclusions to myself, and always keep a reminder that my thoughts are purely fiction, I cause no harm to anyone.

I have to admit that in recent days I find myself getting more and more short tempered, with Haikal being at the receiving end. This, amongst other things, have been the cause of many petty fights between us which could have ended what we shared (almost did), but fortunately we managed to rescue what we could and are now in the process of mending things :)

On that night where we sat at the steps behind the bus stop talking everything (well, a lot of things) out, it hit me yet again how precious the truth, and trust is. In many ways, Haikal and I have been keeping our negative feelings and thoughts of and about each other from the other party, in belief that by spilling light on the darkness, we would cause grievous hurt to the affected persons. Little did we realize that by harboring these thoughts to ourselves, our actions towards each other are gradually affected as all the negativity piles up within us.

After all that has been said and will be said, the bottom line is that I know. And it hurts me so bad but I’ll live with it. For now.
