Life's Monopoly

It's been a long day and I should be hitting the sack. But before I do so, just felt the need to "scribble" something.

Some days can be just so simple and happy. To not be bothered by hardship beyond one's control, the next best thing is to have a open mind and just live life as it comes. Carpe diem!

It's already a year since Baby Aidan reported to earth. The celebration was pretty much categorised into:

1. Men - The photographers
2. Kids - Monkeying around
3. Women - Fussing around the topic of handbags

The scratch on Babe's pink Birkin sent a strange bout of pain into the hearts of the all the girls present. Pictures were demanded to be taken without the ugly socks. Food were excessive because the kids were too busy playing. Conversations were uber enjoyable because the crowd was right. Initiation of the new member was prematured yet aptly timed. Smiles never left the corners of the mouth.

The second birthday celebration was filled with excessive women talking about wedding and the preparations. The hassle and the constant discussion put Attituder and myself wondering if a better time to discuss would be nearer a wedding that is closer to our hearts. Over the years of hearing people getting married within lightning speed of knowing one another always drew skeptical opinions. Myplyn was unfazed and tied the knot earlier this year. Until now, it was almost like the smile on her beautiful face never faded since her wedding day and she was all out to prove the rest of the world wrong. According to her, it's all about finding the right person. Again, do we really know who's the right person?

Life has played its fair share of games with me. Let's hope it's not yet another game of monopoly where there's only one winner and the misery goes round and round with the pining hope that we never ever get the "Go Straight To Jail".
