3 months

When u google for 3 months, the first thing you will see is this: 3 months = 91.3105497 days. Don't ask me how they came to such a precise calculation, neither am I particularly bothered by it.

3 months = Length of 1 season (Spring to summer to autumn to winter)
3 months = About 1 term in school (School term used to last only 10 weeks)
3 months = Approximately the study semester I currently have (13 weeks of lessons)
3 months = Minimum length of 1 VIP period (I should be going for VIP this year)
3 months = BMT (We used to have a longer BMT)
And the list goes on...

3 months is not a really short nor long period. Compared to a life time, 3 months is really short. But there have been many 3 months periods in my life that I grew, I learnt, I developed. It is enough to make any person become more clear of what he wants and how he want to lead his life. It can also be testing enough to force a person to make decisions.

3 months... Yeah I loved the past 3 months.

updates?

ok...

apperently ever since i started having a gf i have more visitors to my blog... as my dear gf decided to put me as her 1st link, so most of her frens who requent her blog come to take a look at mine as well. So by right I should be abit more careful in writing things now.

But anyway I don't normally mind who comes to read my blog. So my style is still mine!

----------

The other day she made me do one of those online tests that require you to make a wish, and then must do something within a certain number of days in order for the dream to come true. The most common types are those that wants you to forward the link or email to a number of people within a certain time. For the particular one I did, it was to call the person who send me the test a certain number of times within a certain number of days (the certain numbers are user entered numbers during the test).

My inital wish that I wanted to make is to be able to spend my whole life with her. But as I am an (going to be) engineer, I had to weigh what other options I have before deciding on the final decision. Immediately another option came into my mind, which is that I want her to be happy always.

By right (as mentioned earlier, I'm supposed to think like an engineer), I have to weigh the pros and cons behind the 2 choices before deciding. But I didn't. I immediately choose the 2nd wish. I just want her to be happy.

Ok, obviously I still decided to weigh the 2 options in my mind when I was on my way home that day. The conclusion was the same as my choice. The reasoning actually quite simple...
1) She spend her life with me and always happy.
2) She doesn't spend her life with me but happy always.
3) She spend her life with me but not happy.
4) She doesnt spend her life with me and don't live happily.
The ranking is based on my preferences. So if I choose my wish number 1, i might get scenario 1 and 3. If I choose wish number 2, I might get scenario 1 and 2. So it makes sense I go for wish 2 since both possible scenarios are higher ranking right?

Ok... anyone who sees this post is going to say I am real lame...
next time I'll probably write in terms of vba program.
