A Predicted Year of Happiness... Monday, January 3

It's been a while since Snickers and I got all dolled up for a so-called "night on the town" but tonight we did it. A new movie was playing at the Multiplex and, though I prefer not to waste my money watching a comedy at the theaters, Snickers' had his heart set on watching this movie. I personally think the whole point of dropping the cash on a movie ticket at the theaters is to up the experience of such movie genres like action and drama-thrillers. I'm like a horse with blinders on when watching an action-packed movie at the theaters, it only intensives the whole movie experience and enjoyment of it. Romance comedies and comedies in general don't need the surround sound.

But enough rambling about that...

Snickers wanted to check out this movie called "The Last Godfather". It was directed by a Korean and starred an apparently notoriously known Korean comedian. Snickers laughed through out the movie and that's pretty much all that kept me awake during it. Mind ya, I must note that I did slip in a solid ten minute nap near the end of the flick.

So the movie was kind of a bust. That's okay. I went because Snickers wanted to and being in a couple isn't about just your wants and needs -- a lesson I learned even before marriage. Snickers is always doing things for me that he doesn't necessarily like, like waking up to walk Mi Nam before he then drives me at 5:5oam to my tutoring and then waiting an hour in the car while I tutor. He's a very giving person to me so I try to balance out his huge generousity towards me by not complaining when there's a sink loaded to the brim with dishes -- dishes that I know what get done unless I do them despite me wearing a wrist cast.

I can't complain. Snickers helps me a lot and though I am the main breadwinner in our twosome family we got going on here at Ggum Guum, I know for a fact things wouldn't run as smoothly as they do if we both didn't give and take.

You gotta take the good with the bad... you gotta know the sour to know the sweet,.. wait, isn't that the sweet to know the sour?! Anyways, whatever it is, you know what I mean.

On the 25th of this month Snickers and I will be celebrating our first wedding anniversary together. I can't believe it's already been that long. And to think, when I first announced I was dating Snickers I was met with such ridiculous and such discouraging comments on my homepage. I still think shame on them for trying to take away something from me, that something being happiness. I never understood the point of it and still don't. The only way I can even begin to comprehend why someone would bash another's feeling of happiness is because they lack it in their own life.

If someone is happy, regardless of your own personal opinions, I think it's only right and only fair to let them be happy. Happiness has but many definitions and who are we to say that someone else's definition is right or wrong? Nowdays, in the world in which we live in where there's already so much pressure, stress and problems knocking on our doors and dreams, why wouldn't you want someone to be anything but happy even if you think it's not real?! Since when did it become okay to knock other people down? I thought getting older meant getting wiser but how much wiser are those who have yet again resorted to elementary school yard bully-ways?! Pretty dumb if you ask me.

So, to those of you reading my homepage who know exactly where I'm coming from, keep doing what makes you happy. I wish you a year of happiness like none other, laughter that makes you giggle in your seat and almost pee your pants, and love that gives you the butterflies and keeps you up at night.

QUESTION OF THE DAY...
How do you define happiness?
