There is this little item of mine that I really like. It was a surprise gift. Very pretty in cutesy babycolours. It probably cost the person peanuts. Despite that, what I felt during that period coupled with the surprise and excitement when I pulled it out of its dustbag -- distinctly memorable.
Things took quite a number of turns (including u-turns and circling around roundabouts) and plunged for the worst. Beyond imagination. It was an extended emotional rollercoaster. Once bitten, twice shy. Twice bitten, pure torture.
So I mulled over the item. Shall I get rid of it? Considering I couldn't even look at it, what's the use of keeping it?
...should i? or not?
...
think!
...
grr...
Having spent my limited braincells and waaay too much time on the issue, I’ve finally decided to keep it. I figured it is a reminder of how wonderful someone can make me feel out of his kindness and fondness of me. Whatever the end result is. That train of thought should stop there. It's now tucked away, somewhere I hope I'll forget soon enough.
The gift - Would you keep it or ditch it?

it depends...
if ur using it then keep using it..if u like it then keep it, if its just for show keep it sumwhere u might not be able to see it constantly...but if u really want nuthing to do wif it then u throw it away to the seven seas...
pretty
i agree with pretty on keeping it if ur actually using it. if its of no use to me but has mkt value, then i'd sell it and use the money for something else..
hmm..does tht make me an insensitive prick? am not one to have any sentimental value on something thats been given to me or has an association with something or some1 that matters nothing to me presently
-gotnoblog ;P-
DITCH it! I got the feeling that it will bring back memories to you...good or bad..let bygones be bygones...
I always knew that looking back at my tears, it would make me laugh but at times...looking at my laughter...it could make me cry.
hello ppl, i think i asked wat wud U do..
pretty anon
u KNOW i like it. kan?
gotnoblog freako
i reserve my reply to that, prick. hehehe. kiddin :p
r u implyin that i shud migrate and get new buddies?
we pretty much established that we're quite different. there are many ways to look at it. n i guess ive slightly shifted my perspective since we spoke abt it :) cheers!
anon - yes i know who u r MBA :p
wats done is done.
but memories are exactly that. nothing more and nothing less.
i dont think ditching the gift would make me laugh or cry more (or less). that's inborn, baby. hahaha. i see wat u mean tho. thanks love.
chocpot,
sumtimes we dont need material stuff to remind us of sumthing. if i were u i would keep it if i really love the thing, taking it as a gift and a reminder lesson of wat ppl can do to us, nice or bad for that matter, and all of us being human in this world, tak pernah terlepas dari membuat kesalahan dan the notion that no one is perfect.
pretty
pretty anon
yup. watever the end result is. train of tot stops right there.
