backgrounds.



This past few days, I was having conversation with my friends that is worth keeping. Like they have changed my perspective about so many things in life. Two nights ago, after Rhys's performance at Saints, we headed to have supper. So it was Me, Rhys, Kyle & Tuck. :) 


Tuck has always been this guys that asks stupid questions, well for me but the other night it was like something about dating a high maintenance girl. Me being the only girl there, was like "Wow, this is something boys consider when they want to date someone" 

Its nice to know what they actually think when they decide to date someone. Randomly, I was like I don't think I am high maintenance. I really don't think so. I don't go out spending money on facials, manicure, pedicure, hair, make up, dye. Nothing really. I only spend on clothes and shoes. Because for clothes makes me super happy. Being able to dress up makes me get my self confidence, that I feel good, that I look good. And I'm sure that Kyle felt the same too because, Kyle is really fashion forward. For a guy, I think guys who pays attention to what he wears have this extra quality. That they are organized, neat and yeah, they wanna look presentable. I totally understand how Kyle felt. 

And there is Rhys and Tuck, who are normal, you know. They don't pay attention to what the wear as long as they wear something. And they don't spend money on clothes. Because for them, its just clothes. Like they don't go out and shop. And I totally get them too. Like, I understand that they have something better to do. Like for Rhys, singing and Tuck, stand up comedy. They spend money on computer games. Its normal for boys. And not all of us are the same. We are all from different background, where in my house, you have to look good and presentable. You should never dress up skimpily and go out skimpily. And for me it's normal because I am a girl. As parents, it important for us to portray good image for them and me coming from a famous background. As it is for Kyle. He has like 3 sister. And girls, its normal for them to be so conscious about what they wear and that is why Kyle would spend so much money on clothes. For example, my brother, he is only 8 this year. And my mum shops for him till the extend of going out for a week just because he wants a specific white belt. And this is because both his sisters are fashion forward. And my dad. He also dresses up when he goes out. And I don't blame my little brother for being so high maintenance. Because, he plays the rich man sport, golf. And this is the nature. 

And the end of the day, everything comes back to our childhood. How we have evolved to this person we are today. And this are the qualities that we take with us.

 For me, my parents have always told me, that money is not everything. What matters is the ones that loves you. And would be there for you because money certainly doesn't. And my dad, would never ditch his family to go out make money. If it is planed to stay at home for family dinner that we have every week since we all don't stay together, not one plan would make him cancel the family dinner. 

How we have brought up till today defines the path that we will walk when we grow older. And as it is for all of us, we come from different background and that makes us what we are today. And it amazing that how all of us, can be so close, no matter how we were brought up. Like me and Rhys, really different but ey, we bond so well. Or Rhys and Tuck. 

This is life and its a part of life to meet different people.
