men of my kind

i stumbled across an interesting 'point of view' - so to speak. the BlackBerry syndrome swept the lonely city of Perth in storm. most of my close friends have one, and somehow it became part of their arm and brain (this equals to : being anti-social in public). my dear nokia is dying so i was thinking to get a blackberry too... but it's obviously quite pricey and on second thought, i don't really need it - all the beeping facebook/email/msg/bb messenger is a little too much for me... and that voice msgs!!! faaak that thing is so annoying. it may be gud for someone who's having a long distance relationshit, otherwise it's just a tool to enhance someone's anti-social behavior (what happened to face-to-face conversations??? and isn't it annoying when ur having coffee w/ ur friend and he/she is busy BB-ing? i hate it.

but that's not the point of this post. the real story is, my guy friend (who has a BB) told me to get a BB, and i told him i might, but im just gona wait til i really desperately need it because i feel bad for asking my dad to buy it for me. his answer was, "you're a girl, you shouldn't be worried about that!"

me: "but i feel bad, im trying not to demand things i don't need. trying to be independent here.."
guy: "girls don't need to be independent. if you're fortunate enough then you can get what you want, and later you can find a rich/well-off husband to support your life"
me: "....."

i don't really agree with what he said there. women do need to be independent these days, if not what happens if dear husband cheats on you? or leave you for another woman? you're not gonna beg him for money.. that's why us women need to have some kind of financial independence!
on the other hand, i don't blame him for thinking that way.. it's just, u know, women need to be less dependent on men/parents or perceived as being too 'soft'.

i wish for an understanding, broad minded, down-to-earth future husband who would eat street food with me.

late night rants

listening to glenn fredly's songs brought me back to the past, around 3 years ago when i moved to perth for good. it was one of the most exciting moments because i had my first taste of ultimate freedom. 3 years later, here i am at home writing this blog at 4am with a couple of drops of red wine... insomnia strikes again!! this really bothers me cus not being able to sleep is really frustrating.. it's just incredibly annoying cus not only my brain had shut down many hours ago, but i am stuck in the suburb, watching endless tv shows online... ALONE! i get used to it tho. the reason i don't stay at a friend's house is because the best place to sleep is on ur own bed... (now am i right or what?)

a few more months til uni ends. can't wait!

rom-com

it would be nice to experience a real life version of a romantic comedy film.

gahh... dream on.
