Announcement cum Clarification

"Love cannot be created or destroyed but can only be changed from one form to another."
(Heard it from someone who heard it from someone)

A friend of mine recently asked me: "What's wrong with your blog topics and msn nicks nowadays dude??"
"Huh? Wad's wrong with them?"
"Well, why are they about...you know...love.......hm...?"
"......"

Which, of course, made me wonder, "Did I sound THAT desperate?"
Which, of course, is a cause for alarm for any self-respecting individual.
Which explains the need for this announcement cum clarification.

First things first: No, I'm NOT a desperate, nerdy, forlorn, asocial archi student looking for love. I believe that God holds my love life in His hands, and hence I don't have to worry at all about it. Right, so that's settled.

I guess my friend's question stems from the general impression that I give to the inexperienced observer: that of a happy-go-lucky tomboy who only thinks about science and architecture. (and lame jokes, and pulling pranks on ppl) I don't believe in dating, but that doesnt mean I don't believe in and think about love. (Since when does "love" becomes synonimous with dating and BGR, anyway?) True love between two ppl,no matter what their relation - love that "suffers long, is kind, does not envy, does not boast, does not parade itself, is not puffed up..." - is a beautiful thing to write about, regardless of whether I'm accused of being "in love" , "out of love", "looking for love", etc etc. It's a fascinating thing to be analysed by restless minds like mine.

I'll have to explain the way I write. I am a keen observer of the world and the ppl around me, and my writings come out from questions ppl ask me, what happens to ppl close to me, and conversations I have with several fellow thinkers I'm lucky to be friends with.

So if I write about vegetarianism it's becuz ppl started asking me why I became vegetarian. If I write about love? Well well...these past few weeks some of my friends are involved in various situations also involving "love". Which kinda makes me analyse a lot about the way ppl relate to one another and differing definitions of what ppl call "love".

Truly, being a thinker and observer makes your world never boring. (Yup, even if u're stuck in a sunny little island called singapore!)
