Emotional Retirement

Should we make some emotional retirement?

It was discussed today that we should invest in our friends, so that we have company when we get old. How many of you out there still hang out with your friends? Like good old friends that you have known for ages. Friends that you could hang out with and talk about everything and you won't get judge. *???* None, very less I suppose. 

People mostly stop being friends when they got married or when they move on. Their family become their friends. *sadly* I often told my best friend in KL that she should have some friends, if something happened to her and her husband. at least she has a friend to turn to? If you do not "save" some in the bank for rainy days, where are  you going to get them when you need one?

I personally do not have many friends. Oh I have many acquaintances and new friends. Friends that I could have a cup of coffee and just do basic chat. Not someone I would turn to and pour my heart out. 

Real friends that I could sing my lung out and just chat about EVERYTHING? I do have got a few but they are all in different countries. Could hardly see them and therefore simultaneously our friendships faded. *sigh*

It is hard for me to invest in *friendship*, especially when I have been betrayed big time in the past. I cannot trust anyone, really. 

pondering....

Maybe that is why, I do not think I could believe anyone could be so nice to you just being friends. If someone treated me nicely (be it male or female) I quite often think that they want something out of me. Well, people could be nice to you out of goodwill, of course, but I would be wary and started to build my walls. 

My papa once told me that people become friends for a reason. For some people, you could just click with them and become close almost instantly the moment you see them. For some, the moment you see them you just hate them to guts, even there is nothing wrong with them. He explained it as the "magnet" which I think he is referring to as "chemistry". You either stick together or be separated.

pondering...

I have a plan. A big plan that needs a lot of thinking. 1. Wine and 2. Myself. Hmm...

pondering...

It reads "11th April shall be jeans for no-director day!" 

Mr G. wrote this on the board today and making sure everyone of us wear jeans to work tomorrow. O_o God knows, what is running through his head. Is he trying to trick all of us? Tee Hee... No directors day tomorrow! Hmm...I am still hesitating if i should wear jeans tomorrow... . 

I told Mr G that we should take a photo of ourselves tomorrow (in jeans) and email it to the directors who are having their annual meeting in Darwin. Haa...

A few guys looked worried when I took this photo. They might be thinking that I am going to use it to threaten Mr G. Haaa....like I have nothing better to do? *roll eyes*
