Do or Don't : Going out alone/ 2:02 PM I'm curious, are people really afraid to do something on their own? The reason I'm curious about this is due to the conversation my friends and I had. Well the conversation started when they asked me what my plans were for the weekend. I told them that I was planning to go the national library and maybe do a little shopping at Bugis Junction. Being the Kaypoh friends that they are, they then asked me who I was going with. And again, i told them that i was going alone. Well I think you guys are smart enough what their reaction was. OMG! Why are you going there alone? Don't you feel akward or weird?? Paiseh?(well maybe this is an exaggeration but its along the same line.) As much as I enjoy having company when i go out, I'm also perfectly fine with just going out alone. Sometimes I'm really glad to go out alone, times when i just need to be alone and have my own breathing space. Its not that I do not realate well to people, in fact I think I'm rather comfortably among people but I don't need them to be around me 24/7. Often, I go out alone to get a bite, to go shopping, and even to watch movies. I think its totally okay for someone to go to the movies alone. I enjoy myself and that's all that matters. But I do really dislike it when i buy myself a ticket and the person ask "only one?", i'll answer yes and they give me this I-can't-believe-you're-here-alone look. I think i can entertain myself so there's really no need for company sometimes. But i still don't get it why people are soo kinda against going out alone....are you guys just unindependant?insecure? just don't like going out alone? what?? If you guys have any reason as to why people shun at the reason of someone going out alone, maybe you can leave a comment or something cause i really don't find anything wrong with going out alone.
