I Heard This Song Today And I Thought Of You

 I Heard This Song Today And I Thought Of You

Have you ever experienced this?

A whiff of scent or a song that you have not heard for a long time, suddenly comes on and immediately transports you back to a place, a time, a person, or a memory that you have long forgotten?

Like stepping into a time machine.

A memory that was so fresh as if it just happened yesterday. 

Or an emotion so raw and powerful that makes you wonder does time really heal?

It's astounding how one song can trigger so much.

Why does music evoke those specific memories and takes us back to that time?

I was listening to these songs the other day and it reminds me of this young girl who I haven't thought about for a very long time.

She was naive and stupid but full of hope for life and the future, for what the world has to offer. Always being open to new experiences, new people.

Mengejar cinta, cita dan harapan. Chasing love, hopes, and dreams.

She has so many hopes and dreams for herself, of things she wants to achieve.

You know, like most girls that age, she dreams of a perfect husband, marriage, and kids by a certain age. She even picked out names for her future children.

At one point in time, she really did think she has it all figured out.

How naive.

I miss her zest for life, her enthusiasm, her naivety. But most of all, her romanticism and belief in love. 

That love conquers all. That in her search for this love, she often forgets how to love herself first and broke her heart over and over again.

Where is this girl now?

I miss that young girl. I truly do despite her naivety and stupidity. 

I'm so proud of her. That no matter what happens in her life, no matter how many times she fell, she gets up and tries again.

Always hopeful and making the most of what life throws at her, figuring life lessons along the way, understanding and loving herself better one day at a time. 

The hardest lesson for her probably is learning to let go. To let go of the what-ifs, the could-be, the should-be. To let go of who she thought she should be.  

Where is that girl now?

    Ah! That little girl is in all of us (girls)! For me it is the smell of the flowers of a tree called Flame of the Forest that transports me back to my primary school days. Very evocative!

Gym Is My Boyfriend

So the other day my partner in crime tag me in a photo that she says reminds her of me. It described me to a T. Gym is not my new boyfriend. It always has been my boyfriend.   Unlike most guys that I met, the gym does not give empty promises, does not disappoint, never demands, always leaves you satisfied, made me feel beautiful and sexy, made me a better person physically, mentally, and emotionally.  And never try to get into my panties. I'm such a gym junkie that most of the time, I schedule my social life, even dating around my fitness classes.  I clicked with a guy on Tinder. Despite the fact that he's obviously just wanted to get into my pants, we got on really well pretty fast and he really wanted to see me. My typical response to anyone who wanted a slice of my time would be  "I'll only be free on Monday and Thursday evenings. Other days I'll be working and gyming. If you really want to see me, it's either after gym or you come to my workp...

Guide To First Dates For Dummies

Guide To First Dates For Dummies While I'm not exactly an expert in relationships, first dates, and stuff, I've had a few learning experiences and a panel of consultants.  I feel the need to share with you, especially guys, a few do's and don'ts of a first date.  Basically to give you some idea of what girls expect on a first date and to save you from embarrassment and disappointments from not securing a second date.  1. Dress To Impress DO NOT underestimate the power of dressing. You only have one chance at making a good first impression.  You don't have to wear something expensive or trendy. Just something tidy, presentable, smart, or casual. Something you are comfortable in. Jeans, a nice shirt and shoes would be fine.  No short pants, slippers, and ratty t-shirts. If you want to wear shorts, wear them with a shirt (with collar) and shoes instead. Hair should be presentable, facial hairs trimmed and tidy, no bad breath or body odour.  Use cologn...
