the one with the WHO ARE YOU? meme

i'm that little girl who used to be heartbroken when you chucked her hand drawn birthday cards aside.

i'm the jealous one who hated primary school and all the rich moms and brats with maids in tow and big houses to return to after school.

i'm the underachiever kid in primary school who failed terribly at mathematics amongst a class of math geeks.

i'm the girl every lian wanted to beat up cos i wasn't friendly enough.

i'm the one bengs protected cos they liked my face.

i'm the loner girl who hated school project work cos my brain works better alone.

i'm the agnostic who started questioning the big guy up there and who, where and what is it about him that i should worship him for? i'm only just beginning to understand his work and am still learning.

i'm the half quitter woman who gave up my dreams cos i didn't want them enough to work harder towards it.

i'm the foolish woman who went for players and pseudo relationships the past three years cos i was afraid of being in love yet unconsciously seeking it.

i'm the hard judgmental bitch who thinks you should be responsible for your philandering ways and not get pissed with the world when the truth gets out.

i'm the unfilial daughter for talking back at you all the time cos it annoys me when you refuse to admit your simple mistake.

i'm the supportive girlfriend who's not afraid to be your friend but doesn't know how to control the emotional mind.

i'm the loyal friend who is always there in spirit cos good friends are hard to come by and those whom i have now are gems which i treasure and fend for. then again, some friends change over the years and i no longer know how to reach out to you anymore when you keep making the same mistakes.

i'm the daughter who feels guilty when i lose my patience and yell at you for not understanding the changing world and beat myself up for it later cos i know it's really not your fault in the first place.

i'm the "optimistic" girl cos no one wants to be around negativity. the last thing anyone need is to be at the receiving end of anger so i try hard to be pleasant at all times even though i'm bleeding inside out. the optimism started as a common courtesy and ended up being part of my personality that set me apart.

i'm the jaded woman who thinks marriage is mostly a legality for future alimony cases. nothing is forever they say, live for the moment but i would still break down the day i watch my (ex) husband walk past me like a total stranger.

i'm the insecure woman in the kitchen wishing i was born with domesticated flair. do you not know how scared i am each time of looking like a fool as i stumble over cooking devices, chop vegetables at snail's pace, skin tomatoes the wrong way, never baked a cake from scratch (always better crocker). but this will change when i move into my new family home end of this year.

i'm the soft hearted girl who yearns to adopt children from third world countries and be able to give love and care for someone who's robbed of such simply joys through war, famine and unfortunate circumstances.

i'm the devil for wanting the world at her feet.

Who are you?

You're the girl who didn't put the whoopee cushion for your tight-arsed, anal-retentive colleague of yours.

Who you are. Who you're not.

Who keeps track that much?

Whoopee cushions come and go. All that's important is the "WHHHEEEEE!!!!" that we get from it from moment to moment.

WWWWHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!

You're the friend every girl needs cos you:
1. do not judge or insist on your point of view.
2. stand by her altho she & you know she is so, very wrong coz she's your friend
3. listen to her incessant "ME!ME!' monologues
4. always wait 15-30mins coz she's always late and never got angry. Once. Ever. And is still always on time.
5. never got angry or pissed for more than 5mins even though the joke is on you
6. have your head on your shoulders and is ever so grounded
7. for being there when she needed you and will always be, if not phsyically, spiritually
8. for reassuring her that it's ok to bitch. All day. Every day.
9. for reassuring her that it's ok to make mistakes, coz we all live & learnt
10. for making her think & question
11. for reminding her of who she was, is and what she could be

...and for being YOU.

now, get on with life already.

You are the girl whom I did not know well when i was in the agency...

You are the girl whom i thought was always aloof but turned out to be the only one i stayed in touch with...

You are the girl who's already ready for last minute lunches...

You are the girl who promised to walk her dog with me in the park when i am old and lonely...

You are the girl i know i will be friends with for a very very long time...
