Lists.

Yeah, just like that time many years ago, where I had a "list" of things my future boyfriend wouldn't be.
Number 1 & 2 on my list were:

1) NEVER fall for a Chinese boy
2) NEVER find a boyfriend in poly, cos they'd be off to NS and you'd suffer from seperation anxiety

And look what happened:

1) I fell for a Chinese boy
2) I fell in the 2nd semester of my FIRST year in poly (approx 6 months into poly) AND I did suffer from seperation anxiety, sleepless nights.... you name it, I had it.

Goes to show, you can only plan but when things are meant to happen, they sweep you off your feet with no prior warning.

Screw it with lists,  just go with the wind.
