I was just thinking recently about an issue that has always been swimming in my mind .Due to a comment by another person, it just made me think harder.


The comment was:


Why is it so hard for guys to make friends and hang out together?



So the thought that was running in my mind is : Yeah that's true.Way too true. It's so much easier for girls to bond and potentially hang out together. Not so for guys.



So at the risk of sounding rather lame,I am thinking that we men should make more of an effort to get to know each other.It's not easy.In my most cynical point of thinking I reckon that girls don't really need us guys in a friendship as much as they would rely on their female friends and guys don't really need guys as much as well .



So does this mean that guys are doomed to fail in this area and we will never be able to form meaningfully friendships with other guys?What happen to the friendships like in band of brothers ? Still need your football kaki sessions to create some friendship?Do we need to join some military outfit just to form some kind of friendship with other men?It should be way easier for friendships to form.



Come on guys, stop focusing your attention on females only.Caused the truth at the end of the day is that if we don't help ourself we risk alienating ourself from other men.

I only wished that I had an SLR to match the subejct that I was taking....

What happen recently

Recently I was at low yat plaza enquiring about computer related products and handphone prices. I then proceeded to a booth which sold handphones.


There was this dude who was operating the booth looking rather aloof. The conversation then like this:


Me: Hi there, I would like to enquire on the best price for nokia 3600?


Man:(Looking like he didn't really care ,then took the price list and then checked): Rm650


Me: So it is the best price right?


Man: Look sir, I am educated ok.Do you want me to repeat that again for you in English? Do you want me to explain that the price is in Rm which is Ringgit Malaysia?


Me: ( I just looked at him blankly and walked away)



All I can say is that this happen to me for the very first time and I WILL NOT be going to that booth again...


Period.

Does anyone know what happen to friendster?....

You have to see this to believe it...

For those who don't know there is the place at Annexed Gallery that sells art and has a very good art exhibition centre. It quite new and it got a bit of selection there other then your normal tourist stuff. The best description would be like central market sell the tourist material while the art for locals are sold in Annexed.


There is this shop which sells graffiti products eg art and pictures as well as shirts. It worth a look and it got a good selection of things to pick from.


In addition to that there is the performance studios where they hold workshops for people who are interested.


I getting a good feeling that KL is getting more culturally aware so to speak.I hope to see more of this in KL.

It 2 days to the end of the year.Wow. And to think that 2008 just flew by just like that. It been a mixed year and there were more changes this year then in a decade. Must be all that events and things that I have been doing.

I going to write a bit more about what happen this year before it ends...
