Jual Mahal - The Story Of An Old Car



Close enough..show me your 6 packs

My guy friends always say i'm too demanding in looking for a partner, played too hard to get. Jual mahal. I used to try to explain that it is okay to have certain criteria or standards to look for in someone. After all, you are going to trust him with your heart. And for the record, i'm not too demanding, these people just don't know the way to my heart :p

My usual response was "Barang baik mesti jual mahal" or "good things certainly come at a higher price". Over time, this response fished out more questions and remarks like 'not all expensive things are good'..bla bla bla bla..Until few months ago, someone gave me this story about "Jual Mahal" and i felt that it sums up those who jual mahal perfectly.

Imagine you have a dearly old car you loved and treasure so much. One day, you really-really need to let go of the car and you have no choice but to sell it. The market price wasn't that much for that car but it meant so much to you because of all the sentimental values that car has. So you sell at a higher than market price. Would you sell the car?




I imagine my car is like this


That someone's perfect answer was this. 

"If i found someone who appreciate the true value of the car, the memories and sentimental value that the car has and still wouldn't mind the high price, i would give the car for free. Because i'm sure he/she will love and appreciate the car as much as i do."

The same goes for a person. Don't settle for less until you can find someone who can truly appreciate the person that you are, your value and your worth. 

Perfect answer. Or he's just one hell of a sweet talker......

Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Secluded Sanctuary For Introverts

 Strawberry Park Resort Cameron Highlands - Introvert's Perfect Sanctuary Picture credit: https://strawberryparkresorts.com/ I'm always on the hunt for an introvert's getaway. As you can probably tell, I love misty mountain retreats. The tranquility, cool crisp air, breathtaking view, the seclusion are just 😍 perfect for introverting. I chanced upon Strawberry Park Resort while staying at SunLight Suite during my last trip to Cameron Highlands.  I was admiring the night view from Sunlight Suite's compound when I saw a well-lit area on the adjacent hill and remembered thinking to myself "Hmm, that looks like an expensive place....but I gotta check it out!" As it turns out, it wasn't that expensive considering the comfort, the facilities, and the invigorating environment.  Hotel Booking I booked through Agoda for a 3-day 2 nights stay, without breakfast for RM720+. Before my trip, I emailed the resort for booking confirmation, coz you know how sometimes A...

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata.
