Just my luck

This is a dated movie which I watched last night. Sum up the story in one simple sentence - The girl is very lucky and the boy is very unlucky. They kiss each other and swap the luck with one another. Then they kiss one another and swap it back again...And again, and again.

How lucky is lucky? Striking jackpot every time; 4 taxis waiting for you everytime you raise your hands; everytime you step out of the house, it will be sunshine; your dry cleaning clothes come back to become a sexy no from Sarah Jessica Parker.

How unlucky is unlucky? Your key broke when you open the door; you got splashed by a puddle of water when a taxi when passed you; your umbrella fail you big time in a torrential thunderstorm; you drop the lightblub when you are fixing up a new one; You come home finding that your place is flooded; You are sacked by your manager for something stupid.

The show is unbelievably and amazingly lucky and unlucky. Sometimes, I wish that all men and women are made equal in terms of happiness, health and luck. But, in the reality of life, we got to admit that this can never happen. Some people are indeed luckier than others. Some people are happier than others. Some people are more contented than others. How abt that small little thought of mine? If I am unlucky today, I am sure that the cycle will be over and good things will come by mi soon? That is when Mr Murphy comes round the corner for a sneak attack on you!

Wait long long hor~

Just felt that in some points of my life, I am really in my down times - to an extent that my friend asked mi to go Bugis Kwan Yin temple to pray pray. The whole 9 months of mahjong had been money out of the tray, not in the other direction. My spiderman figurine fell from the top of the ceiling, comprain comprain and more comprains from myself. Sign....why I cannot be smooth smooth steady steady....To tell you the truth, I struggled quite hard for some of the down times....Trust mi.

But in spite of the downs, had I ever looked at up times? I am in the most pink of health(if you disregard the occasional crazy drinking at times - got to blame Ah-Frey for that!), I am blessed with all four limbs working normally, good eye sight. I got good Hakka Yong Tau Foo to eat, decent job, able to run, financially coming back on track and clearing outstanding accurs. A new home, upcoming wedding and the support of Min by my side throughout the years.

I guess at the end of the day, being self contented is very important. A pinch of luck does enhances the daily lives - Treat it as an entitlement, not a privilage.
