A Woman's Worth



A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE...
enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own, even if she never wants to or needs to...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
something perfect to wear if the employer, or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a youth she's content to leave behind....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age....

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ....
a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal, that will make her guests feel honored...

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ...
a feeling of control over her destiny...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to fall in love without losing herself..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
when to try harder... and WHEN TO WALK AWAY...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she would and wouldn't do for love or more...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW..
whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen table... or a charming inn in the woods... when her soul needs soothing...

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW...
what she can and can't accomplish in a day... a month...and a year...

To all my fabulicious girlfriends out there, let's celebrate our worth! -grins-
Off to do my assignment *poof*

one month and counting







I've lost count of the number of times i let my blog died.
Perhaps I've been lazy
Perhaps I'm just not that committed
Perhaps my internet refuses to cooperate
Perhaps school has overpacked my time too much
Perhaps I just let revolving thoughts remain so
Perhaps...I just didn't know how to express myself.

It's been a whirlwind one month of action.
Attended Aunna and Pastor Adrian's wedding, was their usher for the church ceremony and part of the party revellers at the wedding dinner.
Aunna and the rest of the girls made me wore a dress for both ceremonies, a first for me.

Wearing a dress, is not as revolting as i thought it to be.
At least i think i prefer to don a dainty dress than trying to squeeze my arse into a skirt. It's such tough job to find a skirt that fits well really. But anyways, i still prefer my top-and-jeans combo anytime. comfort always come first. =)

I wonder how would my wedding be like.
Would it be such a celebrated and blessed event?
Or would i even get married.
Someone once told me, the ideal person never exists.
The more you want to find such a guy, the more he avoids you.
The more tightly you cling on to the relationship, the more fragile it gets.

I have absolutely no idea about the future.
School, Work, Family, Life.
Really, what would I be like 5 years from now?
