Like everybody else, I always retreat into my comfort zone when faced with life's uncertainties. This is the place where I feel the safest and most assured in the midst of a turmoil. A few things offer me the level of solace I need to confront life's adversity: football (playing and talking), politics (talking and writing), musty libraries, my precious book collection, and of course, the company of good friends and family.
I guess that's why I've been writing a lot about politics lately. It serves as a distraction from other vexing life issues such as relationship. Speaking of relationship, who understands women? They're a melodramatic creature with wild mood swings and emotionally-selfish to boot. Okay, I'm over-generalizing here but it just shows how frustrated I am right now with some members of the female species. I tried my very best to understand them but still failed miserably. They are simply irrational and beyond logical comprehension. They change their minds as often as they change their panties. They're fickle-minded and they couldn't care less if their erratic behaviors negatively affect other people. They expect you to just "know" the reasons behind their actions as if you can read their minds. When asked about the reasons, they refuse to tell you what they are! Please tell me if there's a logical and sane way of dealing with this kind of situation?
That's why I retreat into a space that provides me with a solid anchor and a strong sense of familiarity such as football and politics. At least with these two topics I know what to expect and how to deal with them. I simply wish that all women are like football and politics: somewhat predictable, less emotionally exhausting and far more entertaining. No offense to my female friends who read this post!

hey babe, you're cool with me but i'm not sure if all the guys you dated would agree hahaha....
drama lagi ke? haha btw, football is not at all predictable. if it is, the Red Devils would have been champ right now after the seemingly unassailable lead a few months back..haha the ball is round they say (saje je;))
that's why i said "somewhat predictable" because there are bound to be upsets and elements of surprise in football though it's more the exception than the rule. memang la bola tu bulat tapi as a football player you know most of the time which way it'll bounce hahaha...
anyway, what's life without drama hahaha... aku rasa mcm nak give up jer on the female species...too emotionally exhausting la..
give up on the female species and.....? start hunting the male? haha dont give up man. go with the flow je. good things come to those who wait.
okay la.. maybe not completely give up but just take a short break.. kasi clear kepala sikit! btw, yeah, good things do come to those who wait but sometimes the things do look good at first but turn out to be rotten afterward... then what? i think the more appropriate cliche is "nice guys finish last"...maybe it's time i become a blow-hard asshole and get all the girls i want hahaha...
