Romantic Compatibility? Capricorn vs Capricorn

When two Capricorns join together in a love match, they create and contribute to a whole new, exciting element in one another's lives. The symbol of Capricorn is the Sea Goat, the animal always on an upward climb from the sea to the mountain summit. This is true of the Capricorn couple who magnifies their energy and strength and climb the staircase to a healthy, mutually beneficial relationship. But, all of this ambition and lust for life is bound to make these Goats lock horns, and a dispute between two tempers like these is not to be taken lightly.

When it comes to running a household or maintaining a healthy relationship, this couple can really take care of business. So much so, that they will have to be conscious of finding setting aside time for recreation and fight off the hardworking attitude that comes with the Capricorn lifestyle. Loyal and charitable, this couple is loving and devoted without being overbearing, which is a desirable mixture for each partner.

Capricorn is ruled by the Planet Saturn. Saturn's main focus is on achieving goals through hard work. This planet also focuses on Capricorn's authoritative side and desire for social status. This couple is very career-minded. Their focus and intense energy can cause them to seem harsh or inflexible, but a Capricorn partner is not taken aback by such an attitude. Each communicates well and enjoys getting things accomplished together. This couple has a great capacity for love, but is not always as emotionally intertwined as other couples of the Zodiac. Both enjoy confronting a difficult issue, but also relish the space to pursue individual interests.

Capricorn is an Earth Sign. Interests lie in the material goods that indicate lofty social status. Capricorns are willing to work hard to make their house a home, and they aren't afraid to show off the fruits of their labor. Mundane activities and responsibilities are a staple of Capricorn's daily schedule, so it's important for these two to do something fun or silly every once in a while. At times, the Capricorn-Capricorn relationship could use a bit of lightening up!

Capricorn is a Cardinal Sign. This couple delights in initiating new activities and following them through. Always conservative, this couple spends their time and their money in practical applications and looks for the tangible results. The unyielding qualities of the Sea Goat workhorse make this duo a knockout couple as well as intimate friends.

What's the best aspect of the Capricorn-Capricorn relationship? It's their dedication to taking care of their personal and shared responsibilities. Theirs is a strong relationship, and the sturdy construction is built to last. As long as each partner remembers to laugh every once in a while, this will be a successful relationship.

Ice-cream, anyone?

Was having dinner and a chit-chat with my mum in her room (yes, i am allowed to sit on my mum's bed and enjoyed my food..let's not digress). Now, where did i stop?? Oh yes...there came this knock on the door. Me and my mum were contemplating who should answered to it when i gave her the look that my butt super-glued to her cosy bed.

She, as good-natured as a mum she is, she went to the door. As a good-natured daughter as I am, I followed behind. The door opened, and what presented to us was this teenage boy, who started rattling off some speech @ an enormous speed. Probably 95 wpm on a typewriter.

When the speech was over, we stared @ each other with wide open eyes. He, confused @ our expressions and we, overwhelmed by his ability to finish everything in just one long breath. Now what's impressive is not the speed but the story behind.

This not-so-over-puberty looking teenage explained his situation, again but in @ a slower pace. He was from Yish** Basketball Team. There will be a upcoming tournament and they badly needed money to sign up. So he and his friends (so there's a wolfpack) went to work for this ice-cream distributor. They got the ice-cream @ $9 but selling @ $14. From there, they'll earn the difference to pay for the sign up fees. He then showed us the ice-cream and coerced us to buy some from him. My mum was sympathetic but not me. I told her, no, we are not going to buy his story nor his ice-cream. I mean, i find the whole damn story totally absurd.

There are a few tell-tales signs that this is all a hoax.

1) If they really belong to a basketball team (in this case, seems like a town or constituency team), they should have sponsors.

2) They have no proof that they are members of the so-called basketball team.

3) If they don't have $, how are they able to get the ice-cream from the distributor? Why would any businessman, let these youngsters be on credit, get the ice-cream first and pay later?

4) They claimed that they are working for the ice-cream distributor. If you are working, you'll be paid. But it seems that they are earning by hacking up the prices which is to me purely EXTORTION.

5) Maybe there wasn't any tournament at all, it's just a gimmick to sell those ice-cream.

I would not advise to market the ice-cream in the way they did. Somehow or rather, if you just let our potential consumers know that this is a new brand of ice-cream and if they would like to buy some to try, sales might be better. Because at least you won't get the door slammed in the face, not doing anything against your conscience and definitely not illegal soliciting.

Whatever is the reason behind all these ,there must be a more proper way. Teaching these youngsters to lie, gain sympathy and what-not, surely is not very effective and moral way to bring up our future generation.

What Am I To You?

Would you ever hurt the one whom you loved most and held dearest to your heart?
Would you ever always stay true and faithful?
Whether in sickness or in pink of health?
In happiness or in times of trouble?

My Buddies

I have a bunch of buddies whom have known each other for a straight record of 13 years. It dated back to secondary school days when we were all struggling through our teenage years and puberty stage. Indeed, we shared alot of memories, ups and downs and somehow, managed to stay in touch even after so many many donkey years. Effort made by each and everyone is worth commendable. I like the fact that we will meet up often, though not always as one big group for catch-ups, dinners or even movies. The most worth mentioning will be our birthday gatherings.

The last gathering we had was last sunday. Supposed to go JB but things cropped up and met up for dinner instead. Had thai food @ Waan Waan @ the new revamp Marina Square. Food was mediocre but ambience not too bad. After that, we decided to head for some coffee to discuss about the upcoming wedding of Eileen & Paul. Supposed to help them with everything, from logistics, reception on the actual wedding day. Got so much to discuss and decide upon. The very first thing is where to rest our feet and put on our thinking cap. Since we are all living along the NEL, we proposed (and agreed) to settle somewhere near our neighbouhood. That's when all arguments arises. Funny in fact...like school children, talking loudly, giggling, laughing, arguing all the way in the MRT. We made such a din and fool of ourselves. But we were really oblivious to the surroundings and people because we just kept on getting louder and louder and it gets rather deafening.

So, finally we decided each to show a number (using our fingers) and if after counting, whomever it ends up with, we will go there. All my friends are cheaterbugs!! I won the bet but when it reached my station, none of them budged. ARRrrrggghhhh...so much about the bet! In the end, we ended up in so called the more "central" Kovan (Ber the happiest...within walking distance to his residence) BK.

For the rest of the night, we just sat down to discuss the wedding preparations etc. There seemed so much to do. The couple are now looking for good photographers/ videographers. If you happen to know of any, do drop me a line. If got contacts, even better. Thanks in advance.

What I want to emphasize is that, it's such rarity to be able to keep in touch and yet be so in touch (pun unintended) with each other's lives after so many years (some of the other cliques in my class had long lost contacts). This friendship is so gem-precious to me. We could almost joke, poke, laugh at one another without the other feeling estranged. The closeness we shared is beyond words can describe. I thank GOD for them, and hopefully we can still be that playful years down the road.
