My ex-housemates are two greenhorn in pursuit of the greater knowledge, although they are in their first semester. They are very well in their in their teens (not 20 yet) they are in a relationship. Which worries me (OK I admit....a bit envy & sort of piss off since I'm 25, still single but enough about me!) because I think they haven't learn anything especially when they only started growing pubes. This could just be only puppy love. Since they are in college now & away from their families, I fear that something might go wrong. Being in a relationship has its ups & down which is normal, but somehow this isn't. As weeks pass by, my fear is justified.
Scream, cry, curse is what both my friend (my housemate as well) & I heard when we were in the living area chatting. We were gutted. Day by day, we were worried that our rented apartment might ended up a murder crime scene. My friend then decided to have a talk with them.....for the last time.....before they kill each other. The girl was in a foul mood. Teary eyes, messed up hair, close to being broken. She asked us why us men are such pigs. Why must men be selfish & ignorant. Well I partially admit that we tend to go overboard when comes to obsession of things & establishment of high pride ego "YOU DA MAN! I DA MAN!" sometimes, but that doesn't mean that we are being deliberately obtuse in everyone around us. My friend asked if she told anyone about their relationship issue. You might imagine, the reply you were expecting, that something to do with everyday life, something that you would sympathize. Then It struck us....unsuspectingly. "No, I haven't told anyone about this. I tried to look up in Wikipedia about our relationship, I was kinda hoping that I will find a solution."
There's a sale in Jusco at 1 Utama, probably the best time to get myself new clothes. My cargo pants zipper is broken, I think I buy a new one instead, I like Samuel & Kevin pants as they are comfortable, but I kind of worried that the zipper might break again since the last one I bought was barely 3 months old.....OK OK OK!! TIMEOUT!!! ARE F***ING SERIOUS?! I finally came to my senses after being dumbfounded by reply made by a 18 year old Barbie whom has a lousy fake plastic bits of relationship with Ken whom rely entirely rely on the warning message that said "Choking Hazard, Keep Out Reach From Children Under 3 Years of Age". It's not relevant at all to the current situation but how is it Wikipedia going to help?!
Funny as it seems, Wikipedia is the closest thing of being a fix for social problems for most people. So as a wise one should do, I gave them an advise. "Looking up in Wikipedia isn't going to solve anyone's problem. Relationship is all about making compromises. I admit that we tend to be egoistic sometimes & stubborn, but you're no different as you look up in Wikipedia for help. If you have something in mind, don't hesitate to talk to your family & friends. Yes they'll mock you for awhile but at the end of the day, they still care & will give you the most useful advise. Looking up in Wikipedia is just as useful as talking to yourself, they are just text written by random individuals. You don't voice out, then nobody going to help you & your partner.".
Two weeks later, I moved out. Might sound a complete ass but I have my own reason. The couples? I don't know. Hopefully they don't kill each other.
