Thoughts, thoughts and more thoughts...

Just before you guys begin to think that i have vanished, here i am.
I have been thinking alot these days. Nothing serious don't you worry but just some random thoughts. I guess perhaps I simply just have nothing to do while Dear's recovering from the extraction of not 1, not 2 but 4 wisdom teeth. I wish I do not have to go through the same ordeal. If you know me, one bowl or plate of rice is hardly enough for my stomach so how will I survive just on porridge? Thankfully, fingers crossed so far, a trip to the dentist on monday showed only 2 wisdom teeth so far. Well, I sure do hope it stays that way. 2 would be more than enough for me to deal with.
Okay coming back, I was talking to Dear the other day about the inverse relationship between the number of friends and age. May be its just for me but I feel that even though the people you get to know and your phonebook increases as you grow older, the number of real friends decreases. Food for thought? I guess as one grow older, they have more commitments-gfs/bfs,family,kids,work,play etc etc. Not that I am not guilty of this, we should cherish the pple around before things spiral out of control.
I came across this briefly in Xiaxue's blog just now. I just skimmed through without really going into detail. She was listing the number of 姐妹that can accompany her at her wedding. I thought hard about myself. How about my 兄弟? How many of my male friends can I actually depend on? I used to have many I felt. But I guess I have never been one who is adept in social skills. Never been one to offer to meet up with the VS/VJC boys. I guess, like how a sticky tape loses its stickiness over time, the friendships took a backseat overtime. I may seem like an extrovert to most but if my memory serves me right, the MBTI Test I took in year 1 for Organizational Behaviour put me as an introvert with an extrovert mentality or something to that extent. I communicate well with people if only I feel like talking. I am not blessed with the ability of some people to yak nonstop to a stranger. It takes time for me to warm up to someone. While I have been blessed and would like to think that I would not have much difficulty filling up the 姐妹slots if there were such a thing for a groom, I shudder to think about the 兄弟 part. Yes, I am thinking too much.
AND JUST TO CLARIFY, THESE ARE RANDOM THOUGHTS. IT DOES NOT MEAN THAT I AM GOING TO GET MARRIED ANYTIME SOON.
See I smart. I know some of you were thinking that way right? Yes, admit it.
