A Moment to Ponder
life is full of choices. many a times we find ourselves trapped in what appears to be tough decision makin moments. each choice we made will affect our future one way or another.
take for instance last month, i decided to join my friends on a little outin at midvalley. it’s not just an outin actually, but it’s a get together to celebrate jinni’s birthday. chianming decided on chili’s grill & bar for dinner, and i agreed to that.
i met up with her and the rest (jinni, mark, rachel) while we were headin upstairs for gsc cineplex. we threw in our votes on a movie to watch for that night. among the choices available were l: change the world, definitely, maybe, and deadly ghost. since birthday girl decided on definitely, maybe, we all agreed to that.
at chili’s, it was another round of decision makin again. starin at the menu, i find it pretty hard to decide what to have for the night, but due to last-minute-lack-of-time-to-decide moment, where everyone had already placed their orders, i just muttered out grilled salmon with garlic and herbs (or at least i think that was what i ordered, cause it’s been awhile ago). hey, another decision made!
this reminded me about paddington house of pancakes‘ menu. it stated “138 delicious pancakes, 1 tough decision”. that is so true!
after dinner and a birthday cake, we found ourselves inside the cineplex, a little too early, anticipatin the movie. to be honest, i wasn’t very sure if we made a right veto vote pick for this movie, so i was less on the anticipatin side and more on the sleepy side.
jinni, you did not just pull my hair!
and so that was a day filled with choices. but what if i chose not to join them on that day instead? i would not have seen them, spoke to them, ate with them, and watched a movie with them. like i’ve said, we live inside the choices we made =)
gee, taileong, dat sounded so like some “destiny-and-fate thing dat we hear in those melancholic movies”. haha. the pictures taken however don’t portray the “essence” of your feelings. how ironic, i wonder?
lol davin, those pictures are just to share with readers on that day’s occasion, and have nothin to do with the main point of my post =P plus it’s not supposed to be compared to those melancholic movies le >.<”
