sTingle
Hie!
It was an ordinary Wednesday today. As i made my up to the Glade, i grabbed a copy of the uni's weekly mag, Canta. Most of the time, i find the mag a total waste of good quality paper. But that was no longer the case up till two weeks ago, when Polly Cosmos* became a regular writer and has her own two-page spread. Her section was called "The Girl's Guide To: ..... " . This week, it was our guide to DATING.
Here are the two paragraphs which left a huge impact on me. Particularly because it's exactly how i see the matter. It's what i deemed the most accurate evaluation of the scenario.
"But let's face it. Sometimes you just get sick of the question dreaded by all singletons: "So how's the love life?" And you cant help but find yourself thinking, "oh hell im stingle (still single) and everyone is bloody hattached" (happily attached - required to be pronounced with a very french-like sort of 'h' to give the word its full effect)!
Now this is not to say that girls NEED boyfriends. oh no. We dont need boyfriends for anything, ............................................ We are all very capable of looking after ourselves and leading fulfilling lives without boyfriends. But, the point is, that as human beings we want to have someone special in our lives. It doesnt make our lives FULL, it must make our lives slightly better, that's all! "

U know, in Canta Issue 8, May 9 2007, there's an article called 'The Complete Male Idiot's Guide to Women: The Joys of Miscommunication' (pg 23). There's some stuff apparently guys should know about women, or i'd like to say "put up with". Isn't that called 'high maintenance' Miss Love Counselor?

Nope Narfahz, that's not high maintenance. THAT'S JUST WOMEN. W.O.M.E.N.
Take it or leave it. =D

Quoting that, and u agreeing with it, is like saying u MAY NOT NEED a bf, but u WANT one, isn't that rite?
