The physics of going out with a girl

After spending some time searching for someone, I learnt girls want 5 important things from a guy. They're called the 5 C's. They are :

1) Cash
2) Credit Card
3) Condominium
4) Car
5) Children

The first 4 C's can come in any order but No.5 is ALWAYS last. And I suppose No.1 can always be considered 1st. I learnt that through my previous relationship. She and her mum said the same words : When a boy takes his girl out, he pays. When the girl take boy out, she pays. But usually I end up taking her out. Damn...

Why is this always so?? Why can't girls practice Dutch Style (also known as AA style) in which both people pay when going out?? After all, if they get serious and get married do you think the girl pays for the wedding? Of course not!! It's the boy's responsibility again. Always on us boys. Not fair.

My friend's sister does AA style with her guy 'cos she claims : "If the boy pays for MOST of the expenses and later they end up breaking up, the boy loses more in terms of $$$." You know, she has a point.

I do hope every girl reads this and tried it out with her guy. Then they'll all live "happily ever after". But of course, I don't expect girls to do this 'cos it's rare. Anyway, my future girlfriend and I will HAVE to go AA style when going out dating. Only before marriage, of course. After marriage, it'll be "Honey, please buy that or you're sleeping on the sofa tonight."  xD

There's a danger in loving somebody too much

After my heart has been wounded so many times, I finally heard this song on Youtube, though it's a very old song by Patty Smith. And I could relate myself to the song 'cos I always did love a girl too much, and it really hurts every time she goes. I haven't had someone close to me for some time now which is good 'cos no one can hurt me, but sometimes it tends to get very lonely.

I don't wanna lose you, 
I don't wanna use you 
Just to have somebody by my side 
And I don't wanna hate you 
I don't wanna take you 
But I don't wanna be the one to cry 
That don't really matter to anyone, anymore 
But like a fool I keep losing my place 
And I keep seeing you walk through that door 

But there's a danger in loving somebody too much 
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust 
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough 
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/d/don+henley/sometimes+love+just+aint+enough_20042095.html ] 
Now I could never change you 
I don't wanna blame you 
Baby you don't have to take the fall 
Yes I may have hurt you 
But I did not desert you 
Maybe I just wanna have it all 
It makes a sound like thunder 
It makes me feel like rain 
And like a fool who will never see the truth 
I keep thinking something's gonna change 

But there's a danger in loving somebody too much 
And it's sad when you know it's your heart you can't trust 
There's a reason why people don't stay where they are 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough 

And there's no way home 
When it's late at night and you're all alone 
Are there things that you wanted to say 
Do you feel me beside you in your bed 
There beside you where I used to lay 

And there's a danger in loving somebody too much 
And it's sad when you know it's your heart they can't touch. 
There's a reason why people don't stay who they are 
Cause baby sometimes love just ain't enough. 
Baby sometimes love just ain't enough.

God bless you, Patty Smith. I feel your pain. I understood how you felt. 

Visiting Balik Pulau

Balik Pulau is located somewhere in Penang, Malaysia and its known for its famous Balik Pulau durians that has a rich taste and moderate size. Apart from the durians, my family and I didn't know what else was there in Balik Pulau. We decided that one day, we would visit there and find out.

That day...was today.

After visiting the Air Itam morning street market, we were just standing there deciding where to go. So after discussion, we decided : Balik Pulau! Taking the bus 502, we took a 1-hour journey along the twisted-like-a-snake road. I fell asleep so it didn't really seem long anyway. On straight roads, he was FAST. Luckily, on curves, he slowed down just enough to turn away from the hillside ledge.

Getting there, I noticed lots and lots of trees, considering its a hillside area. And it didn't turn out to be what we expected. I expected at least ONE shopping mall. Turns out, it's just a small town with no shopping mall in sight.  

Hills!!

More Hills!!

So in the end, after seeing the whole street of durian stalls, we decided nothing much to see here. Popping into the nearby KFC, We ordered a small snack before heading back :)

There was like almost 5-10 stalls there...

The guy in front of us (hidden from camera) ordered about 35 sets for his football pals. Cool. 

 

Reg Ice Lemon Tea + Large Wedges + Reg Coleslaw = My light snack

So after that, we sat through another hour of snake-like winding roads and another speeding bus by another speeding driver. And since I woke up about 7 a.m this morning, it's not my fault I fell asleep on the bus again, until we were somewhere near Komtar.
