"Make the Best of my Life" Pie

After watching the show - Waitress, Bao and I have been coming up with names of pies that we would like to bake. She is more inventive than me cos' she came up with the "Chase Away the Blues" Pie which will have tons of blueberry. And for me... I didn't come up with anything remotely intriguing except some depressing lousy pie names since I'm overly prone to being unhappy and zhuan1 niu2 jiao3 jian1. It's a genetic defect, I think, even though my mama would beg to differ on that point.

Anyway, I have come to the conclusion after the past week that a relationship is a difficult thing to handle. It's kinda like trying to bake a pie and merging two totally different entities together. It has to be handled lovingly and patiently, placed under correct temperatures and alot of time has to be devoted to it. It's difficult to juggle because different pies needs different handling methods and different ingredients to bring out the best flavour. It's more difficult when the 2 main ingredients are both flawy and have characters that resemble mules. God knows what the bloody hell I'm talking about. Hahaha.

Impertinent of me to talk about pie making because this is my maiden trip to the kitchen. Hohoho... but... I think a relationship is a humbling experience. You have to acknowledge your own flaws and try to turn as much of a blind eye to your partner's. And the worst part is that everything has to be exposed, because the person you have chosen will be the one who will be closest to you from now till forever I guess. And there are clashing of ideas, personalities, thinking... anything you can possibly imagine. But I guess it's a process that has to be gone through before a remotely edible pie can be baked... (Why the hell am I still harping on pies?)

Anyway, to put a stop to my pointless ramblings, I remember what my mama told me about this colleague of hers who told her near her wedding day that she is confused as to whether she picked the right guy.... And my mama's reply was that this was not the thought she should be worrying about, but how she should try to work out and make the best of her relationship. The most important thing is that the couple cares alot about each other. Alas, jiang1 hai2 shi4 lao3 de4 la4.....
