Yet again. Every time there are important personal events on a certain weekend, there must be another family function arranged on the same day.
And since 2005, it is now the 4th time occuring. Once in 2005, once in 2006, and already twice this year.
This time?
A close friend is coming over to Singapore from KL for her convocation. She told me months ago and I have promised to bring her family around in Singapore. Then the conflict comes when a birthday party is being planned for my uncle in Melaka.
On the same weekend. Yet again.
I don't understand at all why am I continually caught in this kind of dilemma. Tests after tests of my personality? Or is it just an issue of me trying to make the whole world happy? Or probably it is just a matter of choice and balancing the relative importance of opportunity costs.
Being a libra, I think this time to be fair I have to set a principle for myself. Since I have sacrificed my personal ambitions for my family in June this year, and this time I have promised my friend first, I shall stick to the original plan and be a host in Singapore for this coming weekend. I'll buy my uncle a meal when he comes to Singapore next time, or I'll buy him something when I see him in November later on.
Or does it have anything to do with me being libra at all. LOL |
