i read about the recent hot discussions on gays/lesbians in singapore.

i do have something to say about this.

i do not know or read enough to say for sure if these characteristics or behaviors were herieditary and i'm not here to discuss about that. however, i do think that society should be more accepting towards them. we are in a society that judges alot, much worse back in asia! because people DO NOT know better, they tend to form perceptions relatively fast and this to me, is very unfair.

i have a good friend who is gay.

i have suspected but never asked. what's the point? it really doesn't matter. he has been a great friend to me. though, im in the west coast and he, in the east, he always makes a point to call & catch up with me. he really doesn't have to. he has an incredible life in NY, doing well and living the life. however, he always makes an effort to maintain our friendship and anytime that i needed help or if i'm in town, he makes sure i'm well taken care of.

does he make a less of a friend to me just because he's gay? ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! he is more caring, sensitive than i say, a regular guy..

gay or not gay, it doesn't make a shit difference.

i am a believer. i know that the lord doesn't encourage such behavior. i am not encouraging that. my point is that society should be more accepting towards them.

he told me before that it will be very hard to return to singapore because of his identity. that to me is a very sad thing to hear.

p/s: by the way, one evening out while having dinner in NYC, he did tell me straight in my face that he's gay and i really appreciate his honesty.

why do people want to mask themselves? to maintain a certain image? ego? afraid to show the weaker side?

how can people be so certain in their judgement? they really know??

why do men not cry easily?

why are there so many denominations in the christian faith?

why do parents think they know best?

why are there gays and lesbians?

is there really a God?

why are we here?

alot of whys. though i kind of know some of the reasons behind all these, i still question why.

this is my 1st non-pointed pair of shoes (kind of). i have always been a fan of pointy shoes till i think is a trademark of me. whether is low or high heels, they have to be pointed. to me, pointy shoes are simple yet classy. i wasn't planning (yeah right!) to get any shoes last weekend when i walked into DWS but that pair up there was hard to pass and why not, for a change.

it was a good buy (a 40% discount). my favourite love so far:)

sometimes, how i wish that life is as easy as shopping... if you like, then buy, regret, bring in for return (ah, how i love the return prolicy here in the states). the shopping process is pretty straight forward most of the time.

as we humans grow up, why is it that we have to think so much more? the slightest words and actions all have an impact. sometimes that get too tiring. adults over analyze, over think, over worry, over react and over everything. where has simplicity gone to???

sorray... for the late of update. been tired with work and also the past weekends were spent running all around town, checking out the bestEST food around. now.. i really need to go on a diet. *dead serious*

naoko left for japan today. she went back to change her visa status, now that she is married. but, how can she just leave without the gang going for some solid good food.

we met up for breakfast yesterday. goodness gracious, i love that place. very european decor. i had their french toast, it was good. naoko told me they are famous for their bread. i love breakfast, more so than lunch and dinner. when it comes to dinner, i can get by with just fruits but breakfast, the more the merrier.

also, the funny thing is that i have been in the states for 5 years already (how time flies!!!) but im still not into the whole american fashion culture. me still love european designs. thank god for zara and mng at south coast plaza!

no zion for me. plan was called off last minute.

off to san francisco instead.

hi y'all;

i'm alive and well; been lazy.

i'm good, busy with life, zipping to zion national park next weekend.
