what is love?...anyone have an answer for that?... I don't, but I'd try...

Another day of salsa!
nice!...beginning to enjoy it though there were screw ups while in class...
like don't know how to do the steps...or can't remember the steps..
stuff like that... hahaaa...
damn...I didn't know I had a cultural side of me...hahaa...oh well.

Today there was this one friend of mine.... called me for a meet up...
had some problems with relationships...but damn, it's not like I'm anyone good to give great advice
coz I've been failing in that sector too, but i guess he wanted someone to listen and talk to about it... and so I was there. His first relationship...fallen...
Asked me what love was...
and while talking about that, I said some stuff that just came out from the back of my mind. I probably never had it on spotlight and kept reminding myself...
I said..." My friend... Love is passion and obsession. An understanding between two... and the sharing of each other's lives. Sometimes I'd find that I myself am confused if I do like the person to start with... and then I found, I always wanted to keep the person close to me, keep the communication going, reach out to the person regardless of any returns, care for her. Sharing any form of pain she's in... and I didn't realise it 'til the person leaves for awhile...just awhile, and then I saw myself missing her. That those moments got me thinking... and the probable answer did put a smile on my face. And if in anyway, I could see the two of us being together....that's when I know I've fallen in love....that's what love is. Though it gives pain, heart breaks... so much that you'd probably just want to let go of everything when it all feels unbearable and you tell yourself you don't want to go through all these again. But love to me, is such that if you haven't tried, you haven't lived. Even at the start, before you even take the first step into the relationship, you'd probably be worrying about rejection. Think again... you'll be sorry if you didn't give yourself a fair chance by not asking. People are way different in love relationships compared to being just friends... So don't give up on love, it doesn't give up on you, it never does... the pain you suffer will be worth it. At least you gave yourself a chance if all things failed, but you will always learn to be stronger and better in the next."

Shit...Those words....from me?... hahaa or was it from some higher being speaking through me?
I was astonished by the belief of mine being put forward... to a friend who felt like giving up.
But truely, what I said...applied to me... looking into the past, it was all exactly how I thought things to be...just didn't realise it as it all just went on flowing into my life....

oh well....Maybe all the free time I've been having...just gotten me to find myself... understand myself more...and realise more things about myself....
hahaa...

total body mantainence day!

Starting off early in the morning.... meeting my two buds...Paul and Richmond for workouts...
track running, gym and swim... hahaa...seems like a total body mantainence day!
Had to get those 2 going into some exercise soon anyway...before i get way beyond the unhealthy limits...hahaha..
anyway...its all great!... It's been long since we did such kinda stuff like that together..
We thought that it'll be good to do this every weekend!
Get healthy!

Later, it's salsa time again too!...hahaha...



~Right after touch down...
The first thing that came to mind
was to chuck all my stuff behind
leaving then in the office
And finding you...
To see you off...

Felt excited for you
Felt happy for you
and though you said
glitches sprang up at the last minute
but yet I could feel
deep in you that's so real...
That you were happy that the day has come...
for you to relax and have fun.

It was great to see you after long...
'til you come back...
Max brenner here we come!...~
