I just realised I never go to such gathering .. , JC classmates invited me once, I thought about it and decided I won't like n may not be able to handle the 应酬, never been invited anymore. <br /><br />Quitted cny visits (to relatives) many years ago...<br /><br />Sometimes, I think I make people embarrass when they try to say something good or make sense of what I am doing (like having 3 tuition students)... and I can't response appropriately to their kind justification.<br /><br />cheers! Happy 2014!<br /><br />hhAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-80948867707836746992013-12-31T13:04:39.525+08:002013-12-31T13:04:39.525+08:00Hi cookie,

Long time no se...Hi LP<br /><br />Very good post! Thumbs up!<br /><br />Long time no see, how are you? I I agree some memories are meant to be buried. Meet up for old times sake - a handful of folks may have a different focus. So, we just leave the memorable ones as part of our journey in life :)<br /><br />Be happy with what you do.<br /><br />All the best in 2014<br /><br /><br />Cheers,<br />CookieguyKenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10894126263525842364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-2218286240101453802013-12-18T10:12:23.378+08:002013-12-18T10:12:23.378+08:00Hi piggy,

Re...LP, I mix with a small group (7 sec sch mates). Real trusted friends. We have gatherings only once every few months but watsapp daily. We don't have much career to discuss because the highest achiever is a HOD in JC. We do discuss about kids, talk about holidays, whether or not we like to receive flowers from husband (many find it a waste of money but still happy to receive) This year, 4 of our kids PSLE, took up much of our discussion space. All made it but one mother is very very disappointed, we tried everything, she still disappointed so we cut down on exchange about results and school selection. True friends. I do not purposely avoid other social group gatherings but the other girls seldom meet ;) PiggyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-16963607040381794262013-12-16T12:38:56.677+08:002013-12-16T12:38:56.677+08:00Hi sillyinvestor,

It's really hard to pretend that you're interested in their lives as I grow older because I realised it's such a farce. <br /><br />Even though my blog mentioned about the ills of being compared in a disadvantaged manner, I think being in balance also means you don't get affected when compared favourably to others. That's another sort of ills for another article. I guess you have to decide for yourself whether it's really true that you feel better after meeting your friends, hence you want to meet them more often.<br /><br />Haha, I think I'm quite like you... I am quite comfortable being alone.

I suppose I'm still learning how now to waver when the winds are strong :)la papillionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01372278083694506953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-34945875528643534892013-12-15T23:37:21.536+08:002013-12-15T23:37:21.536+08:00I dun like to mix with some of my friends anymore ...I dun like to mix with some of my friends anymore too. I still have a group of friends which we catch up over beer quite often, most of them did not do as well as me, I wondered sometime if that's why I like to meet them.<br /><br />Slowly I realised ... No, I like to meet people with the same frequency as me, to the hell with their success or lack of, I could be talking to a millionaire and I felt like puking, or some one struggling with life because he is the cause of his own predicatement. <br /><br />Usually, a meeting in a long whole is cool, meet more than once a week just make the conversation repetitive <br /><br />But most of the time, I like to be left alone too. That's why I stay up at night when my whole family is asleep. I enjoy time with myself. I actually felt more drained at times during my overseas trip getaway with family... Haha but they want it, I give if I could. <br /><br />Btw, not just secondary mates or the likes, the ones that actually bitch the most are actually those closest to me. E.g family members, wondered if it just meAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37872616.post-44275360032549042432013-12-15T22:02:54.325+08:002013-12-15T22:02:54.325+08:00LP,
