Look At The Bright Side of Things.

For those of you who do not know, I have officially traded my Presario for the Fujitsu (also known as the "public computer" which I usually call it). Why? Don't bother.

So, yeap. LOOK at the bright side of things.

The funny thing is, I have been trying so very hard to do just that over the past few weeks, trying so hard to look at the bright side of things whenever something bad happens, and it has been tiring to smile when I know I am upset, to make myself think that something good will happen, but I am proud that I am at least attempting.

Just today, this conversation took place involving mainly Wesley. The Mom and Dad & I served as listeners.

(It was raining and we were on our way back from the Bukit Merah vacation..)

Wesley: It's so fun. To be a motorcyclist. When it rains, you go under the bridge for shelter, and you can talk to the other motorcyclists who are also taking shelter under the same bridge. You talk to one another, socialise and you make friends.

Of course the rest of us had our fair share of opinions on how 'fun' can it be to be a motorcyclist lah. But, my point is, what the lil' bro said is so true.

All you need is to look at the bright side of things!

Out of sheer curiosity, how would you interpret this, "You make us all look bad". It occurred to me sometime back. Someone said the exact phrase to me and I have always wondered if it was A) a praise or, B) was it an expression that said: All thanks to you, we're now all screwed.

A or B?

I am more than happy to have friends who can tell me, "Hey, you've got some veggie stuck between your teeth" or "You're insecure" or "You're being plain nasty, stop it" or "It (the chips) is fattening, you're gonna get fat" or "Thank you for the hard work, but we'll need to correct some parts of it" .. etc.

Because by that, I know that you have my best interest at heart, and also because, good friends look out for one another, even when the truth is not.so.pretty.

So dear all, thank you for being honest (I'll have to say my thank you's here and now because I won't be so thankful when you tell me the not-so-nice stuff in public although I know I'll appreciate it later on). So thank you for being honest and especially when it counts!

Love you all! <3
