Don’t Date a Girl Who Climbs Mountains ~ by Kristine (tintin)

Don’t date a girl who climbs mountains. Don’t go out with a girl whose idea of having a good time is to walk for hours in the middle of nowhere with a 10-kilogram load on her back. She’s the one with the dirty arm warmers, worn-out leggings, and a sunburned face that’s beyond repair of any whitening product.

 

Don’t date a girl who has no qualms about sleeping on the ground and doesn’t need a full-service bathroom to do her business. She will gross you out. She can go for days without taking a bath and reduce her vanity kit to a pack of wet wipes. She will snore, drool, burp and fart and it won’t be cute.

 

Be wary of the girl who has been to the summit. She won’t stop talking about the peaks she has reached. She’ll go on and on about every tree, beetle and sunset she has seen until your ears bleed. She stops on the trail to take pictures of wild mushrooms while you scratch your head and wonder why she’s fussing over a fungus.

 

Don’t ask out a girl who feels at home on a campsite. You won’t always be able to text or call her. She turns off her phone to conserve battery life and doesn’t mind the absence of network coverage.

You won’t see her daintily sipping a margarita. She chugs down cheap rum in an aluminum cup that’s being passed around to 20 other people. She can hold her liquor but she may also get drunk and puke her lungs out.

 

You won’t be the only man in her life. She goes on climbs with other guys, hangs out with them for days, and bonds with them over hot soup in the morning and raucous laughter during socials. She’s comfortable being one of the boys and doesn’t feel the need to explain herself to anyone.

 

Don’t date a girl who has travelled to remote places for a challenging climb. She has learned to face the world on her own. She won’t always need you. She won’t always look for you. She won’t always butter up your self-esteem or stroke your ego.

 

She loves with an intensity that pushes her to endure rough trails and grueling assaults. She pursues what she wants with a passion that drives her to reach the highest peaks. Her heart is stubborn and her resolve is strong.

 

Don’t date a girl who climbs mountains. Your shoes will get muddy, life will be messy and your world will never be the same again.

morning sickness.. i hate you!

8.27 a.m. 25/2/2013 ~ Jalan Kuching

Gambar di atas menceritakan betapa ini adalah my very own version of morning sickness. The so called PHASE that i have to face everyday. EVERYDAY.

Tapi hari ini, semalam, dan semalam punya semalam..pagi la tapinya..aku rasakan apelah sangat morning sickness aku ini.

Aku lebih pening, mual, rasa mahu nangis bila dengar negara yang aku cinta sangat-sangat nih tak lagi aman.

Tolak tepi lah perasaan benci aku bila cerita pasal politik, tapi ini cerita pasal keamanan!

Lahad Datu...Semporna..

Apalah sangat kepentingan politik itu jika nyawa bangsa Malaysia yang jadi taruhan.

This is sick people!

When he open his mouth..

Selalunya Encik T tak banyak berbicara. Terutamanya kepada Miss Blurry. Tapi suatu petang yang biasa-biasa aja, Encik T mula membuka pintu perbualan.

"I have a friend, she's a married lady and have one child. Only, the husband she have is just like a friend. It's like two people living together but no feeling is involved. One day she met his ex, and since then they have an affair. To get the only thing that she didn't get from the husband...sex. How do you think about it? Does it makes the woman bad?"

Hmm... Miss Blurry tarik nafas panjang. Kenyataannya, perkara ini berlaku di mana-mana dan pada sesiapa pun, tanpa mengira jantina, bangsa, keturunan etc..

Tapi, itu bukan persoalannya. Pada aku, setiap manusia punya pilihan. Kita bukan ayam yang makan bila ditabur bijirin, dan cukup masa disembelih untuk menjadi lauk. Bukan. Kita manusia. Punya pilihan.

Sadly, tak semua orang tahu untuk membuat pilihan. Ataupun, berani untuk membuat pilihan. Kerana setiap pilihan datang bersama kesan..consequences. Tapi sekurang-kurangnya, mereka yang membuat pilihan ini adalah lebih baik dari mereka yang menyerah dan akhirnya kalah pada takdir. Kesudahannya, mereka tak perlu menyalahkan diri mereka atas apa yang terjadi.

Jadinya, salah siapa? Tuhan barangkali?

Memanglah, berkata-kata lebih mudah daripada merasainya sendiri. 

Oh ya, mudah juga kalau duduk, menyerah dan mencampakkan bebanan kesalahan itu pada orang mahupun benda lain...daripada jatuh dan sakit semata-mata kerana mencuba untuk mengubah keadaan. Tak gitu? 

Kalaulah setiap manusia berfikir begitu.

Jangan jadi manusia. 

Manusia dikurniakan akal, hati dan perasaan. Pilihan sentiasa ada.

Miss Blurry tarik nafas panjang-panjang.

"Your friend actually has a choice. Divorce her husband, and do whatever she wants to do with her ex. Why commit adultery, make it legal in some way or another. Or finish her affair and start to work on the marriage. But if  she falls in the middle of any of the journey, don't be sad. Take it as part of the journey. Your friend is not a bad women. She is just a women who can't decide wisely. She has a choice, but she didn't take the chance." 

Encik T mendengar...lalu menyelah.

"Oohh..  luckily i'm not married. Saves all the trouble."
