the pursuit

have you read the book 'captivating'?
have you read a dozen of other similar books?
yes.. we get it.
women want to be pursued.
trust me.. we freaking get it.

sure.. japanese coined the terms 'herbivore' males.
it refers to men who are passive about their romantic/sexual relationship.
naturally there are carnivore type too.. even the female carnivore.
yes.. we get your frustration with herbivore guys.
and being a meat lover, i can certainly feel you.

so back to the topic..
you are the prey, and we are the hunter.
that's basically what this whole game rules imply.
while you take every opportunity to remind the guys that you need to be pursued,
i humbly encourage you to reconsider the nature of being a prey.

you are not the only prey in the forest.
you do not dictate how the hunter hunt.
there is no right or wrong way of hunting.
only one thing matters.. result. whether you are caught or not.

so.. are you embracing your role now?

the hunter has no right to complain if he loses his prey.
he has no right to dictate how his prey runs too.
but he certainly has the right to choose how, when or where he hunts.
it is a vast forest after all.

if this whole thing doesn't sound good to you,
that's probably because a prey can never see from the eyes of the hunter.
and of course, vice versa.

so while there is an element of truth in this whole pursuit thing..
I do think that there is something else that matters just as importantly.
taking the courage to step forward at times, maybe?
that would have been most captivating.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
