Things bout P.R.O.M.I.S.E.S.

Hi guys~
and girls...
few sir and madams..

I know I've been missing alot lately for posting..
Last time I would be updating my blog everyday...
But since I'm busy all the time, there wasn't really much time to post anything up...
I apologize for that...

Eventhough Chinese New Year holiday is coming, I'm still quite busy with the workload I currently have.

 ****** HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR TO WHOM CELEBRATING ******

Alright~ It's time to talk about today's topic, PROMISES.

Why am I talking about this? Well, to be honest I'm quite sick of people breaking promises made.
I know I was quite and still a bit am a promise breaker, but I do try to keep my promises all the time.
Promises aren't meant to be broken, they are meant to be kept.

Not just keep it in your pocket and forget it. I mean keep it and do as promised.
Especially on punctuality. I'm so sooooo sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sick of people coming late as promised. I mean seriously, do you like to wait half an hour up to 1.5 hours later than promised? You don't, don't you? If it was once in a while I don't really mind, but all the time? If you want to meet up than lets just say "you wait by yourself around 1 hours and I'll meet you" then atleast I know what I'm gonna do during that time.

There's been one incident where I promised to come to my girlfriend's ex's house one morning and to go a shopping mall later in the afternoon (tHe Spring, Kuchingites will know ^_^). My ride was my bro because he got class that morning and it was slightly on the way to his college that I asked for his help (no driving license yet at that time).
I was awake the whole night doing something I can't remember doing but it was important and I overslept. My bro told me that he tried waking me up and he was too late for class that I didn't even woke up. I pissed her off because of that promise. I know it was a stupid reason to be oversleeping.

But I know I was wrong. I tried to make up for that promise I told her I would be waiting at the mall as promised (even when I have no transport). So I took a quick shower and I walked all the way to the mall from my house. It was an hour + walk from my house under the hot sun. I felt bad because it was a promise and I know how it feels when someone broke your promise. She said she wouldn't come and told me to just go home. Well, I (was young and stupid) waited there for hours. Nothing to do. Then she told me she was coming after the long hours.

The moral is, if you're going to break a promise, DON'T! Or atleast make up for what you had broken. Trust isn't something you can get overnight.

That is why I don't like to make such promises again. Even if it's tiny, it is a promise. I don't like breaking promises. You should too. Whenever my friend offers me a job or something to do, I would reject eventhough it has a big reward because I know the possibility for not keeping the promise.
To whom it might concern, I'm apologizing for not taking up the offer but I have my own principles.
