Probably disqualified from lecturing at NYU

That is, if I would qualify academically in the first place. Haha...

Never realised my extent of categorisation, until for some reason, I notice a different name on a piece of paper today, and the corresponding name on the name tag. Even though I wasn't very pleased with your standard of work for quite some time, which was aggravated just a few months back, I didn't dislike you as immensely. But when you matter-of-factly said you've converted today, I've no idea why I found it so extremely repulsive. Cause you are not amongst my real friends, so my dislike outweighs our acquaintance? Or because you are still deemed a friend, though not as much, so my dislike was aggravated?

Whatever it is, I think today's event made me resolve to change. Either that or follow through and stop when it ends. (On top of the fact that I was doing time-watching and the discrepancy was obvious. I know I'm repulsively stereotyping, but am I wrong to say that the change has made you less hardworking as well?)

Don't know, but yes, I'm kind of taken aback by my strong reaction.

简单的快乐

I know I haven't blogged in a million years and there are loads of congratulatory messages for a few of my friends, but for the moment..

I just had one of the best-est dinners I can ever had! No need for atas places like TCC etc. In fact, when JianPing asked for suggestions for less than $20 food places, the first place I thought of was Seah Im..

Although we ended up at Food Junction at Vivo instead, it really didn't matter. For the 2+ hours, it felt like time stood still (or perhaps even that we were in a time shuttle). No need for pretence, no need for politically correct comments. It was back to being myself, and commenting about what I truly think.

THIS is what real friendship is all about. Comfy, secure, where nothing else matters.
