Let down

Was so looking forward to going to MacRitchie today.. can u believe that i've never been there? frens said that they went there on expedition when they were in primary or sec school, but mine never brought me there.. just like i get my triangle milk once a month instead of every week..

when i received the message late last night that the outing was off, i wasn't surprised. cos seldom now do we make plans and go out successfully.. but even though i have expected it, i still felt let down.. why is this being done to me again? 9 out of 10 times, it just doesnt work out... set myself such a high anticipation only to fall so hard... why is it so difficult to just make a succcessful outing nowadays.. so i know i have to blog this out to make myself feel better...

is it just me, or have such code of conduct change? i mean, when i make a promise, i make sure i keep it. i dont over-promise to make people happy, and if i cant make it, it's either i'm really sick or choy! i have an accident.. and i will def set aside that time to fulfill that promise, no matter then whether i still feel like going or not.. if i really dont want to go, i'll tell them i dont want to go.. think most of my close colls already know i'm not a movie person, and it's great that they still take the effort to ask everytime they want to watch something.. it's all about being open and managing expectations, something sensical we learnt in marketing...

There goes what would have been a beautiful sunday.. kind of late for me to make other plans.. pls understand my feelings.. on the surface, i may say things that are very 'can de kai', 'never mind never mind' but inside i'm really miserable..
