See, my sister has a friend who has a blog called ohsopanas.com where she documents to the most minute detail her life on a day to day basis - with pictures even! And so my friends and I, in a moment of utter genius (or madness, you decide :p), came up with the idea to start a blog called ohsopandai.com... There is no logical reasoning as to how it is linked to ohsopanas.com, but it is. Because we say so. Full stop. Lol :)
Ok, so no one gets it. It's ok. It is after all a private joke that I have tried (and possibly failed) to explain. Oh well, at least I tried :p

I was watching the second season of Sex and the City and I realised that one big reason why it has such a loyal legion of followers is that in some way or other every woman can relate to the 4 women, the main characters of the show. The 4 still single women... Is it everyone's secret fear that we will never find 'The One', that perfect person to spend the rest of our lives with? That we will all live out our healthy 80 years alone? That we will rot for a week, dead in our apartment with only a cat for company until the neighbours smell the stench and realise that something is not right?
Okay, so maybe some people are sure of finding their life partner and living happily ever after. But there must have been one time when they were not, right? Everyone must have had at least that one moment of doubt as to whether or not they would ever meet their match. Yeah, I can relate to those single 40-something year olds who are yet to settle down... Do I see myself as one of them in the future? Maybe. Do I see myself finding the man of my dreams? Highly unlikely. I doubt that he even exists. Even with flaws and all :p
Alas! Such is life. (So dramatic, hehe :p)
Nonetheless, I still am hooked on the series - with it's witty script, quirky fashion and the occasional hottie ;) Yay for more SATC!!! :)

Turning 21
First, an apology:
To this blog and those who read it, sorry for not posting as frequently as I would like to. I always have all these posts worked out in my head, but I never get down to actually typing it out and after sometime, I forget what it was that I wanted to say. So, one thousand apologies!! (hehe, lame much?) :p
Now on to the title subject:
So I'm finally 21. The day came and I must say, it wasn't as dreadful as I expected it to be. In the beginning of this year, I would have said that I did not want to turn 21 as I felt as if I had not experienced all that a soon-to-be 21 year old should experience. Now, the only reason I had dreaded turning 21 was because it meant that I was growing older. Growing older means having more responsibilities, being more independent, having a certain level of maturity. Growing older means coming out of my delicate protective shell and being pushed deeper into the 'real world'. It is a daunting thought. But what keeps me going is the fact that people are doing it everyday and managing pretty well :p
That being said, I don't feel very grown up. I don't see myself as the 21 year old that I envisioned myself to be when I was young. And I don't know whether to be disappointed by it or to just accept that most things in life never work out as planned.
So in the process of writing this post, I have given this issue some thought. I have decided that ultimately, it does not matter whether I am the 21 year old I thought I would be. What matters more is for me to live in the now and take things as they come, do what I think is right and make do with what life throws at me.
Being 21's not so bad!!! Age is just a number, right?? (or so I tell myself...) :p

The Simple Life
Yup, here I am back home in KL, leading the simple life :p
Well, about as simple as you can get it to be in KL at least... Lol. Albeit the stifling heat and unbearable humidity, I am 100% glad to be here.
Wake up, breakfast, laze around, lunch, more lazing around... You get the picture :p
By the end of the break, I'm going to be a fat round mass of flesh with eyes stuck on... Or maybe (I hope!) not.
I'm too lazy to write anymore... So I shall stop here. Blame it on the sudden drop in my happy scale.
