Beating about the bush
For those reading this post, there are two others i made today. Haha paiseh, but there are so many issues/values in life that are worth writing down. So next time when i look at this blog, feelings will flood back again :)
I realised that i have a habit of beating about the bush when it comes to giving direct answers to friends. Mostly when it is a 'yes/no' question, i will try to go the 'indirect' way, and beat about the bush... coz im not the type to say 'no' directly, coz i think its rather crude/rude, and that im not sparing a thought for others' feelings. But some friends told me that if i kept thinking and procrastinating and not giving a definite answer, that would get on others' nerves as well.. :S I really dun wanna anger anyone or dissatisfy anyone... sometimes we all do things that agitate people unintentionally, so if i ever did anything that upset anyone here's my apologies.
About the 'yes/no' questions, i guess its also because i weigh both sides of the situation too much, and decide between the pros and cons. Its like when Brendan asked me to go to his church event thingy, i really wanted to go, yet i had to put time aside to study, yet i knew that if i told him a direct 'no' it would hurt his feelings... so i procrastinated on phone and tried to explain things out.. but yea, in the end i told him 'i really cannot make it... sorry...' instead of saying 'no'... i juz cant seem to say that word :S That also makes me a very easily persuaded person... if u say 'please' enuff times, i cant bear to say 'no', and will most probably agree to wadever u want me to do unless its abit outrageous :S Maybe its also on the account that friends are asking, so i would want to please them. yea.. sometimes i support friends more than myself... but i hope thats a good thing.. :) For those ppl who have less patience out there, sorry! sometimes i abit slow de! and my hearing ar... sometimes got problem wan, can hear wrong things, or cannot hear things from far at all. :X maybe its coz i dream too much... today sure was a dreamy dreamy day..
Sighz... back to chatting on msn... boy i cant live without msn man... the virtual community/chat world rox... lets me convey feelings so easily, without having to show facial expressions and yet being able to laugh it out or leave the intended impression/memory... though it may be better to hold one-to-one conversations, in a world where friends make up our lives, sometimes such opportunities for private talks are very rare, thus we rely on chatting over the net to noe each other more. But dont anyhow chat with ppl u dont noe ar... lol this world also alot of dangerous bad peeps, and sometimes people you dont know might juz add you :S But anyhow, take carez all my friends of 34/04, tchs, and any other friend that noes me out there.. till next post, ciaoz :)
