Assalamualaikum, people, and a very good day...

Last night while driving to UKM to visit Langsat's exhibition booth (she was handling the free test of H.pylori bacteria which is the main culprit of gastric-related deseases such as peptic ulcer and gastric cancer, and I had volunteered myself as test subject ), I tuned in to RMKL, on 97.2 FM. The DJ had asked all the lucky callers to state three things or acts that they couldn't tolerate, before allowing them to make a song request and dedications, and the majority of them state Lies and "Ngumpat" (I don't think there is any word in English to describe this) as the most annoying acts of all. Since I was not been able to call-in and had my view heard last night, I think I would like to elaborate my view here, in this very blog.

The most annoying act, that really make me turns green because of anger and frustation, is broken promise. I hate it when someone had made a promise, and then for no concrete reason whatsoever, failed to fulfill it. And to make it even worst, the mentioned someone not even bother to call or simply SMS to inform he/she would not able to keep the promise or offer a simple apology. These heartless creatures feel un-obliged to honour their own words, and think it is OK to not say sorry for their mis-planning, without even think of how bad they has screwed-up the other party's plan. They simply forget the fact that a lot of us, who are single and alone (I don't want to use the phrase "lonely" here because it sound too pathetic ), planned our activities around our friends; most of us enjoy the company of mutual friends, hence their no-show had tremendously affected the joyous mood, not to mention the meaningless waits and delays that occurs because of their given words.

A promise is a form of verbal contract, in which both parties had agreed to complies, and it involved a huge amount of emotional responsibility. There is no black-and-white writing to officiate the contract, but it still a contract nonetheless. And just like any other written contract, it need to be honoured as best as it could. If for some reason whatsoever, that the said contract could not be honoured, an appropriate apology should be offered to the suffered party within an acceptable timeframe. Such courtesy should always applies to any promise, because at the very least, it shows our character as a civilized person, where we acknowledge the fact that we had make someone suffered (mentally or physically, or both) as a result of our acts, and we feel sorry for it.

So sorry peps you had to read this negative-vibed entry in this 'love-in-the-air' month of February, I just need to get this disappointment out of my system. Let just say I still waiting for a particular someone to fulfill his/her part of the promise, I felt too exhausted to keep on sending SMS just to remind him/her what he/she should do...

Excuse my rantings, peps. Have a nice weekend everyone, bubbye...
