thots after "Victim, Villian, Valentine" - a concert in the name of love, by a band called soul2soul

the lead vocalist shared her love story, the ups like why her special someone is special
1. he has a kind face (and proceeds to recount how her mum describes her dad as someone with a kind face =p)
2. sense of humour (he makes her up when she's down)
3. he is her biggest fan

woohoos. lovely. and also the downs, like
her boyfriend throws her solutions - list of steps and to-dos when she's down; when actually all she needed was some comfort.
insensitive, egoistic, off. in gal's language.

she also made the audience share their love story
the first guy said "based on other's experiences" if the guy has allady declined to give a comment dun ask again. like "am i fat?" is a taboo.

the electric guitarist added that if a guy is staring into space, and his reply to "what are you thinking about?" is: "nothing". dun ask again, "are you sure you're thinking of nothing?" cos
HE IS REALLY NOT THINKING ABOUT ANYTHING.

hahs. *guilty*

the lead vocalist also shared how she and her boyfriend took cheap shots at each other, ripping each other's weaknesses/weird habits in front of others. eventually landing a break up. but as they did their soul searching, they found their way back to each other. the guy said sorry first.

i tink this is partly reflective of my own love story. but again, love stories are all the same, bcos, we are all searching for true, perfect and pure love. we launch into a cycle of sweetness, then anxiousness, frustration and then despair.

my take home lesson: learn to be the first to say sorry - to learn to put myself down and see my wrongs. and to be zj's biggest fan, remembering all the wonderful ingredients God has put in him =)
