did u watch any of the "mencari cinta" episods ? my mum is kinda following it.. but i dont quite get it (but then again, i watch bits here, bits there.. mana nak paham the storyline..hehe).. but saw the ending of yesterday's show.. how one of the guy cried coz he felt so guilty for giving the name for "who cared the least abt the girl".. now this is soo la why such reality show will never work in malaysia.. we are not like those mat salleh who'd do whatever it takes to win, even to extend having conspiracy, secret pact etc.... also why at every elimination point for AF, everyone cries.. tak macam American Idol, where only the contestant cry.. heheh..

btw, i doubt the girl is such innocent, naive girl ie typical kampung girl type.. firstly, she definitely has that "city" look thing...hehe..plus since she's willing to go national in order to "mencari cinta".. in the sense that she knows what she's getting into & daring to "date" (well, i dont know what exactly they do in/on this show for the "dating"/get-to-know-each-other part..hehe) 10 strangers.. hehe.. but to say that she's bad ie not marriage-material just coz someone saw her going about town in tank tops, hmm, that's a little judgmental, isnt it? have you seen what people wear these days? i could barely find anything that fits,.. anything that's good anyway.. hehe..

anyway, i'm just ranting.. so not in the mood to work.. ;p luckily the boss is away..

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning and company doesn't mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises. And you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes open, with the grace of an adult, not the grief of a child. And you learn to build all your roads on today because tomorrow's ground is too uncertain for plans. After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. So plan your own garden and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. And you learn that you really can endure... That you really are strong. And that you really do have worth.
