SIMON SAMUEL

attended my cousin's wedding dinner last sunday..
it was a beautiful night..

but looking at how the event was held,
i could not help but think about it..

why is it that almost every couple will thank their parents on stage?
it seems so customary..
not that i am being rude,
but why hasn't anyone talked about other issues?
hahaha...

i know father is kind of anti-social..
and my whole family is given a table to ourselves...
think that effectively states that we ARE anti-social doesn't it??
lol...

in sociology, Parson stated that the society exerts its influences and internalise the social norms into us,
thus socialising us into social beings..
so looking back at how the people at the wedding behave,
are they behaving that way because of the effects of social norm and control?
or are they exercising their relative freedom and authority to negotiate the event as per what Mead said?

blame me for studying sociology..


okay, enough of the crap..
met up with sherlynn yesterday..
you know, i've never been able to comprehend why couples cannot be friends after that broke up..
sherlynn and i shared beautiful memories together..
although we did not managed to carve out a future together,
we still remain close..
we will catch up with each other once in a while,
talk crap, bitch about our miseries and stuff..
hahaha..

anyways, went to her condo at lavender..
she stays at the 35th floor!!!
and the view is spectacular!!!
you can see the singapore flyer, the city, the kallang river, etc etc..
i can imagine the night view... amazing..

went vivo city to shop...
finally found a pair of slippers that i like!!
hahaha...
chanced upon a bar - brotzeit
it has like 20-30 kinds of beer,
plus it serves really yummy suasages!!

got to visit the place again this sunday with dom, leon and dine..
you won't get drunk there dine, so don't worry..
