Day in the Life of Candy
Which one are you?
May 15th, 2007The way I see it, when it comes to ending relationships, a person will act either of two ways:
There is the girl who humbles herself, latches onto a relationship fiercely until she is let go, dredges the bottom until she can no longer find any scraps or semblance of what she used to love. This girl will hang on until she is at the point of humiliation. At the end of the day, when the relationship finally falls apart, she is content in knowing there was nothing else she could have done to save it. She thinks this’ll give her less of a reason to look back and regret.
And then there’s the girl who recoils at the first sign of trouble. She will withdraw faster than he has a chance to prove her wrong. She’d rather be the one who rejects than the one rejected. She covers her bases quickly, and shuts out any possibility of being embarrassed or offended. She’d rather have her pride intact than the truth, with all its potentially gory details.
There are pros and cons to being one or the other.
So which one do you think you’ll be?

Single or coupled?
February 20th, 2007So who has more fun on Valentine’s Day? Those who are Single or those who are Coupled?
“Couples, of course!” Nicole said, enthusiastically. “Why, you fall in love all over again! Flowers in the morning, sweet messages throughout the day, a romantic dinner, and a Valentine’s gift to cap it off.”
“On the contrary,” Jill countered, “Valentine’s is not just about romantic love. It’s about celebrating love in all its forms. I can have a fab dinner with my friends or family and have as much fun as you.”
I thought back:
To those Valentine’s days spent single—doubled over in laughter with my friends, being silly, eating at a restaurant, or hitting the videoke. The bonding, the good vibes, the company. Those days were a blast.
Fast forward to Carlo’s and my first Valentine’s Day as a couple! Waking up to a call from him, those three long-stemmed roses, and, gosh, what a dinner date! The ambience, the mood, the candlelight, and the love of my life. It was perfect, I was transfixed!
“Well?” Nicole’s and Anne’s voice broke my reverie.
Who has more fun on Valentine’s Day? You tell me.
