"blowing out the candles, on another birthday cake, old enough to look back, and laugh at my mistakes, young enough to look at the future and like what i see, my best days are ahead of me..."
my birthday is approaching in a few days time. since i've heard the song above ("My best days are ahead of me" - Danny Gokey) many2 times in the past few weeks, i've decided that it's gonna be another favourite birthday song, apart from the usual "happy birthday to you" song that i've listened to each year. kinda personal birthday song i can say :)
this morning as i was listening to the radio while getting ready to work, i got this perasaan teruja dgr the topic that was being discussed by the deejays and the callers. it's about getting married =) the discussion started with where's the most suitable place to find a candidate as a husband/wife to what's the pros and cons of arranged marriage. one caller suggested that the deejay (female deejay) go to the supermarket/hypermarket and pretend that she drops her bag while browsing for things to buy... or that she can pretend that she couldn't reach for the food/ketchup/utensils on the higher shelf and seek help from a (nice) gentleman nearby. why do they think that they can find/hunt for a GOOD guy/girl at the supermarket/hypermarket, i have no idea, hahaha. but as Reefa said (yes, sila cari radio yg one of the deejays is him), it's a cool place to find s'one good as a partner. i don't know. tp i've seen the movie "life as we kow it" and it demonstrates this guy who tries to mengorat start a cnverstn with this girl in a hypermarket. boleh try la kot the next time pergi TESCO/Giant/Carrefour/etc.
on arranged marriage, a caller said that he's in his 4th year of his marriage that was arranged by his family and he declares that the marriage is getting stronger. (good to hear that). of course not everyone setuju dgn arranged marriage... Reefa doesn't, hehehe. however, whether it's an arranged marriage (diatur oleh kwn2/keluarga/sanak sedara/jiran tetangga) or marrying s'one whom you have known for quite some time (obviously la anda berkwn dgn gadis/jejaka itu), what's important is to BE IN LOVE with the person whom you are married to. one female caller said that there's a difference when you compare that you LOVE your husband/wife with you ARE IN LOVE with your husband/wife. according to her it's not enough if you only LOVE your husband/wife. you have to BE IN LOVE with your husband/wife to ensure that the marriage lasts. may i meet s'one who can BE IN LOVE with me for the rest of my life, ngehehehe... adakah i gatal? =)
no, tidak... i sbnrnye berangan, sprtimana org sll ckp yg "there's nothing wrong with having your own dream. anything is possible to d believing heart. it' not impossible that 1 day your dream will come true". tp dlm i berangan2, trus melekat 1 nasihat from 1 caller td - "lower your expectations and watch less movies". part "watch less movies" tu harus ditekankn krn if byk sgt tgk romantic movie & mghrpkn 2get d same romantic cum hero-type boyfriend yg spti dlm movie, di alam realiti ia adalah sukar mencbr sedikit. nothing wrong wit having your own imagination on what are the characteristics that u r looking for in a guy, tp not to d extend that you r wishing for the impossible, kn?!!! kna pkir "what type of husband do i NEED?" rather than "what type of husband do i WANT?", kn? YES? NO? hmmm.. i just NEED s'one yg baik utk i, accept me as who i am (wpn cara i gelak adalah agk tidak beretika, spti yg dikomen oleh officemate smlm), tau baik & buruk yg ada dlm diri i, and BE IN LOVE wit me for the rest of my life *wink...wink...* tak slh to wish s'thing good when my birthday is approaching kn, hehehe...
in the meantime, i'm wishing that i can get some of the things listed below (dpt semua lg bgs). some of it that i really NEED tp yg terakhir tu lbh kpd WANT (secara tamak), muahahaha...:-
- external hard disk (penting utk sumbat mcm2 menda, esp. files/documents kerja & gmbr2 precious yg i nk refer suka2 ati bila2)
- jam tgn (memandangkn jam tgn yg dulu ada dlm h'beg yg konon2 akn dipulgkn tp smpi skrg x dipulgkn lg & i pn xtau jam still wujud dlm beg tu/x, i think i need to get another watch la kot. dh ada specific brand yg i berkenan & dh jugak npk design that i want. tiap kali masuk kedai akn npk d same design from that brand. jd, itu sign to get the exact brand & design la kot, huh?)
- business card holder (ini pn dlm h'beg yg still blom dipulgkn tu. harus get a new one b4 i go for my conference in 2 weeks time)
- camera (camera sudah rosak d last time i went for my Jogja trip. kalau boleh, i need to get it b4 d conference gk)
- buku cerita (yg ni, masa x birthday pn beli. sbb tu ni masuk dlm list WANT (secara tamak), instead of NEED, muahahaha. being a librarian yg sll kna update diri utk cari buku2 for the library's collection & perlu bkk Amazon/MPH/Kinokuniya/publisher's websites/etc2, sll sgt npk buku yg lbh menarik for PERSONAL COLLECTION. lpstu bila g MPH/Kino npk buku2 lain gk yg lbh menarik, trus perasaan membuak2 nk beli buku lain plak. jd la koleksi buku yg blom bc dlm almari&tepi katil i dh dkt 10 buah ... *&%^$#@###)
it's sooooo not helping when your birthday falls in the month of Christmas, di hujung thn. jd ada la jualan Christmas everywhere, jualan bkk skolah (sale covers merata2 dan bkn utk brg2 skolah shj) & kt M'sia ni ada YES... bkn "YES - Yeay Esok Shopping' tp "YEAR END SALE" yg sgt la lama duration nye (Nov - Jan 2011) & sgt menggamit hati utk mengeluarkn duit di kala blum tentu dpt bonus :( now, perlu berhati2 dan lbh utamakan NEED rather than WANT. YES?
what_i_think: sesiapa yg blum phm, sila la bg bday present kt i based on what i've listed above. boleh ka? =)
