valentine day's coming... and as wat had been for the past 19 years, this year's still a valentine-less day for me...

was watching SHE's mtv wo3 ai4 ni3 the other day... long music video tt set me thinking... there was this young girl and guy who were childhood lovers... so they were deeply in love for who-knows-how-many years when the cruelties of war separated them... at this point in time, i'll like to add tt they promised each other tt they would like each other, through this life-time and many more... before they separated, the girl passed a box to the guy, telling him tt she stored all her love for him in tt box and whenever he thought of her, he could open the box...

40 years later, the girl, now a married woman with children, managed to find out the whereabouts of the guy... they met up and the woman was surprised to find tt the guy had waited for her all this while and tt he had not opened up the box tt she had given him, in fear tt her love for him would disappear into the air... do i hear 'ohhhhhhhhh... so sad...'?

the woman felt guilty and sad... tt she had broken the promise tt they made years ago... and the thing was tt she still had feelings for him (despite being married to someone else)... so she made a decision tt would bring pain to many ard her... she asked for her husband's permission to let her go back to her childhood lover... and the husband agreed!!! and even bought a house for the 2 of them...

now, wat do u think about this whole thing?
1a) would you be like the guy, and wait for yr lover for so many years, 'blindly?' trusting tt she'll return to you, and yet knowing tt there might be a possibility tt she might have married someone else?
1b) if you are only willing to wait for yr lover only for a number of years (and not eternally), how many years do you think you'll wait for him/her? be trueful...
2) wat would you do if you were the woman's husband?

was taking a train back to camp some time back... saw this lady... prob in her mid or late 20s... quite surprised to find someone who is sooo feminine... reminded me of florence... the lady tt i saw was even more feminine than florence! and i thought florence was pretty feminine enough... i mean the first time when i saw florence... i think a few ppl might agree with me tt she has become less feminine through the years (but again, tt's not the main point)...

to find someone who is so extremely (maybe i've exaggerated a bit, but a bit is all it is) feminine comes as quite a surprise to me... feminine in all aspects... posture, way she holds her conversations, demureness, gestures... do i sense some lady's hair rising in anger? quite an extinct breed of ppl i guess, pretty much like the endangering of the gentleman...
