Emo-tional

My cousin's wedding dinner wasn't as epic as I thought it was partly because a lot of the epic parts were either scaled down significantly or removed altogether. It's not a dinner that I would enjoy for a number of reasons. One, I'm not that close to my cousin. Two, some of the singing performances were ear-shredding. Three, old people (aka. parents) dancing to 70s disco music. Enough said. Although I was quite curious how they would react if I just secretly put in a request for the Village People's YMCA. They literally danced their asses off to every major hit 70s disco music so it should be pretty epic to see them do YMCA. The request did come but not from me and it was just a little too late because there were a lot fewer left on the dance floor. Me? I just drank more vodka and looked away. It's better that way.

For the first time in a few years, I got to meet up with 2 brothers together. We had beer and chatted for a good 4 hours and I have to say that was the best. I wished that moment didn't end because I feel happy and all my problems and frustrations with myself and other people just vanish or dealt with appropriately. They're just pretty good at that. Like I said, it was good while it lasted which got me thinking while cruising down the highway at 2 in the morning with the radio turned off. Things these days are so transient, nothing ever stays the same no matter how much you try. Of course I know this the hard way. Anyway, how long can this last? In the age where virtually everyone is getting married, attached or friend dynamics revamped, change between us is inevitable. This is the kind of support that I need now (in wake of 2009) just to keep me sane, so what happens when it's finally gone? Or when I go back to Melbourne?

I got the comment that my recent blog posts have been very emo. Great! And I don't mean that in a sarcastic way. Part of my problem is people thinking that everything will work out fine. Or in the words of a friend who always use this "You'll be fine". Rubbish. While we are at it, let's throw in a few other things. I also start to be depressed, low self-esteem, the whole package. It's a great wonder and miracle that I didn't become an alcoholic (by the way, the mention of alcohol here does not reflect that I am one. I just like it like how I like apple juice with aloe vera bits. I don't abuse it.) or a songwriter or both.

What a rubbish thing to say! But this is the world we are talking about.

That Korean drama series that I got for Christmas looks mighty tempting right about now...
