I Can't Think of A Title.

I haven't been blogging as much as I used to, as much as I want to. Blame it on the work load and tight schedule. Actually, I've been wanting to write in my blog, but there's so much in my head, so much to say that I don't even know where to start. So, I'm starting off with Sex And The City Movie I watched last Tuesday.

For a girl like me, Sex And The City is a dream. To put myself in Carrie Bradshaw's shoes (Manolo Blahnik shoes, take note), is something that I have been fantasizing about since I could remember. To walk in the streets of New York with so much confidence in those amazing clothes with a smile on my face, showing the world that I have made it and I'm content, really is the ultimate dream.

Maybe for some New York is a cliche. One would probably say that New York is overrated. But I am a romantic. I believe in soulmates and all that jazz. Just the thought of being in New York gives me the chills. I've been there once and it's a city that breathes on it's own. It's a scary place to be in but at the same time you'd want to be part of it. I wanna be part of it. Someday I will. New York! New York!

The film started off with the premise that people go to New York for the 2 L's: Labels and Love. Basically, that's what life is about, isn't it? For a girl like me, at least. The modern woman strives to achieve success. Success may come in many forms, but to me, success is all about getting paid the big bucks for something I enjoy. To be able to buy all the things I want on my own gives me fulfillment. I know money cannot buy TRUE happiness, but reality is, money can buy a lot of things that makes people happy. Labels can be achieved with passion, hard work and as my Dad would say, you need a little bit of luck, too.

Now for the second L: Love. It's such a strong word and for centuries, people have been trying to define what it is. Songs have been sung, literature has been written about this one thing, and yet it's still a mystery. I guess, a person can never truly understand it until it happens to her. I am lucky to have found love at the right time. Maybe the reason for the long wait was because I wasn't ready then. I have fully embraced a life with partnership. Singularity, as much as I loved my life then, I can't imagine going back to it again. (But, take note, I'm still an independent woman, okay?) Passion, on the other hand I believe should come with love. Lastly, for a relationship to last, it requires hard work. 3 months into the relationship, everything's great. We're very open and we talk about whatever needs to be talked about. I know, it may be early to say. But I will make this work. We are gonna make this work.
