UNEXPECTED is the word of the moment and of these days actually.

Everyday, something seems to just happen unexpectedly. In my life of course. NOt always bad. But just unexpected. This afternoon, I saw this sec 1 gal bringing out her fugitsu tablet pc and writing on it as she was dialling up her mom on this very latest model of panasonic handphone, i thought, "wow.. the kids these days" and i made a mental note to blog about it tonight. BUT smth happened and now i dun feel like blogging about the kind of technology that kids get their hands on. Instead I feel like bloggin about the word unexpected. That's weird and of course UNEXPECTED. To me that is. This is a total diff plan from what i had in the afternoon.

Is unexpected good or bad? Im not sure. It just makes me wonder sometimes. Someone once told me, everything happens for a reason and just because you dont know the reason now, doesnt mean its something bad! now isnt that just encouraging?

And have you guys ever wondered why some ppl just dun click with you?? I mean you just try and try and try and you just dun click. full stop. period. u just DUN! Does that mean you guys are very different from each other? ok i think u all get the point. and then you think.. eh but me and my very good friend click very well but we are very DIFFERENT. ahhh thats when my psychology reading friend comes in. He says, as taken from his text that in actual fact, people you click with actually share some very basic values that you have as well. Sometimes, so basic that even you dun know about. And thats why even though on the surface, you all may have differences but deep down, you have smth similar! I like thinking about it this way too.

And you if remember, this guy from our year 1 OB text said smth like you hate it when you see yourself in others? Is that true? Now its a bit tricky. Im not too sure about this. But what im sure of is, when you have nothing good to say, then dun say anything at all. It isnt very hard to do , is it? Why hurt another person? And since we r at it, I also belive in shutting up when im very angry, or just plain angry. Coz knives when thrown, leave marks even after they are pulled out. Just like how some words pierce. So I just shut up when im angry. But that doesnt mean when i dun talk, im very angry. Of course it also doesnt mean when i shut up, its coz i have nothing good or nice to say. It just means im not very into the topic of the moment. Why not join in and be SOCIABLE? someone once asked.

Well.. .. i think its simply coz im NOT sociable i think. Which brings us to another issue of why do things which makes you unhappy. Unless of course if you do it, you can make somebody else happy and of course you wun know if anybody else is happy when you do it so you assume you dont and so you dun do it! correct?? yes, i think so.

And then there's the issue of EXPECTATIONS too. I think all the trouble starts when you start having expectations. Its coz you start having expectations that you give room for unexpected-ness to happen. You get it? You see, its coz you start expecting someone to be that way, something to happen one way or another that when it does not happen the way you want and happen the other way which you did not think of, the u start thinking, how unexpected! But on the other hand, if you DID NOT have expectations, and just go with the flow, you will not expect anything and nothing unexpected will happen. can i say that? Dont you think so? Let me give you another example.When you first meet someone, everything that he/she does is well just smth he/she does. If he/she does smth not nice, you ll just think.. ohh.. how not nice and if he/she does smth nice, you ll be glad and it ll be like a bonus! but the trouble starts when you keep expecting that person to do smth nice and they dun! right? ok just random thoughts.

And just as im about to end my blog, smth just popped into my head. I was talking to dan this evening about how weird it is that 2 ppl in a relationship albeit a platonic one can have different takes on it. Like one comits and leans more into it and the other dun. But nontheless, they are in a relationship. Weird. It quite unfair isnt it? When you take and give in varying degrees. Come to think of it, I think its like that in almost everything right? Sad but its the truth nontheless. Who ever said life was fair anyway. No, it isnt. I was almost convinced it was. But of course i woke up in time to realise that it isnt.

And on this very pessimistic note, I go back to my books.
