The Jokers In our Life

Having watched 'the Dark Knight', the princess came out of the theatre, visibly disturbed and increasingly more aware......

Like in the show, there are the constant Jokers in our life trying to wreck havoc just to prove a point.....

The Jokers are usually disillusioned with their lifes' own imperfection or constantly under the impression that their current state of misery is inflicted by everyone else around (except themselves).

In turn, they love to create the same misery in others, so that we feel their pain...

In work or in life, these people are constantly attacking you, putting you down, manipulating your environment, trying all means to break you down...

Their goals (intentionally or not) is to make you become them..... just as sad and pathetic.....

And it is frustrating (like how Batman would have felt), you cant reason with them, you cant fight fist to fist with them.....as much as you want to or try... You cant seemed to win....

In a way, these Jokers are really "demented and tormented". Their only pleasure is in seeing the darkness of your heart surfacing....

Perhaps, the key to defeat them, is to believe in your own goodness more fervently, with conviction like never before....

Let the light shine through.....

As they always say, after the darkest of night is the coming of the dawn....

Bigger than big

In life, it seems, we all have been sold by the idea that everything needs to be bigger than big...

The world tallest skyscraper, the most exotic getaway, and the most romantic love affair.....

So often, we hear ourselves desiring that bigger house, bigger pay package that comes with a bigger view and lotsa lotsa big big parties...

It seemed that the only way to that sweet perfect life is being bigger than big....

Like Lady "V" commented, "They are so successful, these friends of ours, going to exclusive functions, knowing who's who in the industry & leading a jet-setting lifestyle.... Greece one day... Paris the next... "

People living on the very edge of the earth it seems... so happening...

Like the princess, sometimes, we all can get swept away by these meaningless comparisons....

And we so often forget that, ironically, the only thing bigger than big in life, are the small things.......

And as the princess discover one evening, after sessions and sessions of big party groups with glamourous people, that even in the smallest group of company, the non-extravagant location & the simplest of dishes;

You can always hear the most heart-felt conversation, have the most delicious dinner, and share that sincere, wholesome laugh, all without the pretence that your day was bigger than big.....

Born to be Porn

Every day, in X-tube, there are millions of people loading up their naked ambitions even as we speak.

Well, most are good but some are really totally totally bad.

But the thing that the princess just cannot understand is: "Is there really so many 'normal' people out there whom just love to show themselves?"

What is really the motivation behind this?

a) The adoration of many (including the princess of coz), getting hot and excited over their fabulous uploads?

b) The secret thrill that they get when engaging in such acts knowing that there would be many viewing them?

Seeing ordinary people living extraordinary lives of a pornstar wannabe is so surreal...

Just like straight porn actor pretending to be gay porn actors pretending to be straight. (or is it the other way round??? the princess just cant figure it out anymore!)

But whatever. After all, its show business.

And when there is so many of these common cute normal people out there in x-tube, one cant help but to express concerns at the state of our spiritual well-beings.

The princess finds herself (only very very occassionally) stuck in a rut in front of her laptop for hours wondering about the wonders of x-tube.

Where once people went into porn so that they get paid; We are now actually able to convince people to do porn for free for their own instant gratification.

Ever since the secret sex tapes of Paris or Pamela, it suddenly is so cool. It is as if people are just born to be porn.

And the princess is really reaping the benefit of the latest trend, every minute of it. Every single minute.

found?

Love, they say, is a miracle.

Indeed, it is....

I am so happy for you, big sis....

Love has finally come your way and i send my sweetest blessings a million miles across the world to you.

You must really tell me more about this fabulous guy.



luv,
princess

Thanks for what i couldnt have been

I am happy today..... very happy....

Why?

Because:

1) I may not be as sophisticated and know as many friends, but i am wise to know that a pure true heart never needs that many friends

2) I may not be as beautiful nor have a model-like face, but i know that i am confident to know that i am good enough

3) I may not be as happy, but i know that i would not have to tell a tale to hurt another or a lie to make me happy

4) I may not be as rich and abundant, but i know where the real wealth in life resides


For the many things that i had wished i could be but never had been, i believe there is a reason why.

And i say a thank to all the things that i could never be.

Two Sisters, One lucky Gal

The Williams sisters.....

The princess has gone from hating them to loving them both to bits....

So finally.....

Wimbledon 2008, Finals...... The Williams Sisters, Venus and Serena, head to head....

Both known for their sheer power and determination.

What a dream match this is..... :)

And the princess has finally proven Mahjong Queen wrong!!!! The princess is not a jinx on the players she supports......

See!!! Both of them are here. In the Finals!! Either way, the princess wins....

The princess is indeed one lucky charm, contrary to Mahjong Queen's belief


I should be so Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky.......

Dirty Martini

Move Over, Cosmopolitan!

Get the hell out, Mojito!!

Every decent girl in the club should be seen with her Dirty Martinis...

Do it the plastic princess' way:

One hand on your Dirty Martini, another on your man's weenie

The surest way to your man's heart ;)

Another day, another trick.....


Luv,
The Plastic Princess

The flower blooms in June

The flowers are blooming nicely this summer, which is a surprise. Last year, they were a total mess. Not this year. They are very nice this year.

And against the window pane, as the sun shine through, with the light reflected on the translucent petals of the flowers, it is a picture perfect moment.

I sat on my couch motionless with a cup of hot tea in my hand. The mind was not anywhere but here in this moment. I was literally watching the flowers and feeling the warmth of the cup against my two petite palms.

"Such a lovely day" i said to myself. In fact, i had never enjoyed such a day for a long long while.

I walked across the room and picked up a book on the shelf and begin to read again. The book must have been left on the shelf forever, covered with dust. Apparently, it had never been read before.

"The flower blooms in June by Enite Dorothy" i read as i wiped away the dust from the cover.

"What an appropriate title" i thought to myself with a smile on my face.

"A woman in her late thirties re-discovering the joy in simple things in life. As she started the hobby of gardening, she saw her love blossoming as well - a new neighbour whom had just moved in from the city...." goes the sypnosis.

"When and why on earth did i buy the book for?" I asked myself, almost ashamed of myself for purchasing a book that is so blatantly made for the love-deprived, desperate middle age woman who craves for that glimmer of hope.

"I do not need this now" i thought to myself as i put the book right back to where it deserved to belong.

Up there, on the shelf, unwanted and totally not needed.

Well, now the tea gone cold & the flowers doesnt really seemed as picture perfect anymore.

Sigh.

Yes, the flowers had bloomed in June this year but is love really on the way?

The princess waits forlornly.
