sheese from the purple cow

i have been attacked by the procrastination bug again. in a flash of brilliance, i have yet again come up with something else to blog about. well not really. i can't really remember half the crap i post up here, so i'm probably just recycling and rehashing some old ideas and attempts at being profound and deep. so, shall we dance?

it's all about the compromise

compromise: a settlement of differences in which each side makes concessions
(i love online dictionary)

everyone does it. sometimes it's as small as going to a movie you abhor, to doing things that you really just don't want to do. how much is too much compromise? when do you start becoming a pushover, as opposed to a really good friend/girlfriend/boyfriend/person? or alternatively, do you not compromise enough?

i have only very recently changed my ways. it used to be an all-or-nothing thing...you either do one thing or the other...never both. i mean you can compromise in all aspects of life, but i have been beat down on it for doing it too much at work. yes ok i work like hell...and it makes me look like hell, but it's all about the money baby. but let us not get sidetracked here.

let me explore the people that are nearest and dearest to my heart...my friends...who i compromise for the most. some people think that it's the big things that matter...like (insert very obvious example here)...choosing between spending time with your boyfriend or your friends. but funnily enough...that isn't a big deal for any of us. hell, it's more of a big deal trying to decide where to bloody well eat dinner, and who gets to pick where to eat.

life is about juggling everything...uni, work, friends, family, social life, love life, me time and all that jazz...you compromise between everything. i mean everyone has different priorities and such. but at the end of the day, it's not a matter of who comes first in your life...it's about spending as much time as is humanly possibly with those who matter. and when it all goes to hell and compromise is impossible...let me leave you with my words of wisdom for the day...

"good friends understand"

so once again my post has become about friends. so my only hope dear readers, is that i allowed you to have some thoughtful procrastination for the day. it's a mish mash of ideas that spewed forth after my first caffeine hit.
