How my Nick Come Abt :P

For those who have my msn nick, they are probably used to the "Simple Happyness" chinese wording on my nick. Many have asked initially when i have this nick how it actually come about. Here is how it comes about.

During my year 1 in NUS, I was invited to watch in a play by NTU Hall 11. I have 2 of my good friends who took part in the play. The play revolved around different group of people and their search for happiness in life.

One scene was about a student who is memerised by his guitar and always thinking about the past, about his gf who died in an accident. There is deep memories about his gf and he has not really let go even after a few years. He live in his happiness in the memory of his gf and behave rather eccentric after sometime. Is this the kind of happiness for him ?

Another scene was about a gal who lied to all her other classmate about she having a suitor. That is peer influence as most of her friend have bf outside and she too does want to have one. So she actually lied to the rest that she have a "best" bf in the whole world. She doesnt want to lose out and does she get her happiness by doing so ?

Another scene was about a very ambitious guy who wanted to be the next great man of the century. He took part actively in his school community and elect for president of student union. He knew by doing so, he will have very good achievement in school and there will no problem for him to climb the corporate ladder when he steps out to work. However, there is always things to sacrifice whenever you wanted to archive something. For him, he scarificed his time to spent with friends and family and even a gal who took pain to take good care of him, he turned a blind eye to all. Eventually, he fulfilled his dream but he got no one to share his joy with, is that what happiness is about ?

Another scene was about a guy who is always looking for fresh gal to hoook them up. He never commit to any relationship and treat the entire relationship just like a game and fooling around. He never get serious with any gal and he gets to date any gal out whenever he wants. Is this the kind of happiness he is looking for or just putting up a strong front that he is happy with his life now ?

After i finish watching the play, few things pop up in my mind. (1) The most important is not just finding the most prettiest or more handsome partner but rather finding someone who can give you the happiness that is most important. (2) Do treasure that "special" someone everyday and treasure all your friends and relative
