I don't believe in withholding help; if I know exactly what I'm doing.
Hiding is for chickens; and chickens peck you back.

Frustrated with non replies
Frustrated with non replies
I don't think I'll be a good organiser ever. If the response is bad, I'll begin to wonder if it is my lack of rapport with my target audience. I believe a prompt reply is basic courtesy. I believe a commitment to an agreed outing is another basic courtesy.
A reply on the day itself is not exactly prompt. A "dunno leh" but went ahead and planned something more exciting isn't showing respect. A "see-how" and see what crops up doesn't make me feel good. I took the effort to lead. All I got was 1-2 replies on the first day. What about everyone else? Can I be faulted for taking it personally?
Someone taught me - organise for a core group; make them your priority. I tried; it sort of works. Lowering your expectations does help. However, it hits harder when your core group doesn't turn up but others, including EXTENDED friends do! Comes back again to - Is it me?
I don't want to go through this anymore =x

Are you supposed to give a reply, if R.S.V.P is not written? http://www.eventethos.com/blog/q-a-no-reply-card/

V-day: Past and present
V-day: Past and present
I never cared much about Valetine's day. All that it bothers me was that slow moving couples, out in force, were a hinderance to my movements, as I usually prefer to zip through human traffic. V-day is ridicously exploited, contrived and materialistic.
Off topic: Valetine's day was when I got my first pair of guppies - Orange and Spots. Sadly, I killed them from washing their tank with detergent. I thought I rinsed the tank clean but I guess a trace amount was all it took =(
Getting attached sometimes forces a person to backtrack on many promises and stances. I still think that V-day is ridicously exploited, contrived and materialistic. My better half agrees with me but we still would like to mark the occasion. We therefore picked activities that are unaffected by the price hikes. We did more things but we paid less. On hindsight, I'm glad we chose these plans. Thank you, ST . <3

Wake up, stupid
Wake up, stupid
If a guy spurns you for your looks; he's not worth having >:(
He's putting on airs. He's leading you on. Wake up!

Not a very good time
Not a very good time
Dealt by friends and enemies.
Enemies I can handle. Sometimes friends and allies might come to my rescue.
With friends, it's harder and mostly suffered alone.
