popular mechanics for lovers
now i have to admit that i've always been rather skeptical towards bloomin relationships within the same faculty/class/orientation group/watever. u get my drift.
to me, it's more like a relationship of convenience and circumstance. true enough, Fate does play a part in bringing two strangers together in the first place, and mutual attraction doesn't come along all the time. but it's like, of course it's easy to maintain the bond when u can eat, study, sleep, play, walk, run, hop, sing etc etc together when the whole day is spent in school anyway.
and the most baffling thing is, some of them drop their ex-bf/gf like a hot potato once they hook up with someone new in the class. despite the previous relationship being a tumultuous, longsuffering, painstaking, ridiculous 4 long years one. love stands true against all odds, indeed.
somehow the cynic in me just wanna challenge these "sticky" couples who literally traipse evrywhere together. wat do you think will happen if ur bf/gf decides to quit university and sets off to work? or that something drastic happens that totally turns ur world upside down. which isn't exactly possible, since weird stuff happen each and evry day. it's only right not to take ur safety zone for granted.
perhaps sometimes it's best not to hold on so strongly to the physical presence of your significant other because wat good can possibly come out of such dependence anyway? yes it is true. u can watch a movie alone u knoe. bet you forgot all about ur independence as an individual after the months and years of being the other half of a pair of siamese twins huh.
besides, absence makes the heart grow fonder anyway (blah blah u knoe), and with the upcoming transitions towards fullfledged adulthood, working life (welcome to the Real World), ectopic pregnancies and so forth, a lil test to check if the relationship is well in order wouldn't make that much a dent innit. unless you have much to fear, of course.
in any case, God bless u, all my couple friends out there. i knoe it never is easy, cos i've been there myself. and i've learnt that injecting some rationality into a somewhat illogical affair called Love is always beneficial. just hope you guys work it out in the long run. it's always worth a try.

apart from being a seemingly superfluous feel-good unrealistic rich kid drama (which i still totally adore!), the OC has some pretty smashing songs on its soundtrack.
