Some things matter more than others even though at times there are things that masquerade as high-priority items when actually, they are not. Like getting myself unnecessarily worked up over issues that I could not change. I used to think that I could dive my paws into this and that and fix everything, even though I am miles away. But apparently, this voice isnt enough and I should have just crossed my arms across my chest.

I am starting to see just how exasperatingly tiring and emotionally taxing involvement can be. And it is much easier to kid myself and pretend that I don't hear or know anything. What used to be distractions are now such welcome reprieves. And lately, I let myself easily excited over things, over small things like chocolate brownies. Few nights ago, my flatmate made this fantastic batch of dark chocolate brownies - and I had the first mouth-watering taste straight from the oven. That was an awesome late-night indulgence.

Last night, we had friends coming over for sungkai gathering. It was the guys' idea and we ended up hosting the gathering at our place. It was great - and we had awesome food that reminisce of home. I indulged myself in my all time favourite kueh bingka (or what my flatmates called as 'kueh bakar'). And oh how I missed the satisfied, bloated, double-chinned feeling I got after stuffing myself up with fried begedils and chicken satays. That certainly quenched my hunger for gerai ramadhan food back home.

This is us cam-whoring before our guests arrived..



And this was taken after the guys (teh-initiators-of-the-gathering) had left.



So.. I am happy. =D The more and more I let myself ignorant, the happier I am. Just like how my annoyance grew exponentially the more time I spent contemplating over unnecessary things. I shouldnt - My tray is getting too full and I just have to throw away these wasted rants to keep it from tipping over.
