Heart Stealers
"It occurs to me that every time I lose a dog, he takes a piece of my heart with him. Then every new dog who comes into my life gifts me with a piece of his heart. Therefore, if I should live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will then become as generous and loving as dogs are!" ~ Author Unknown
I don't know if I've learnt how to give away my love like a dog would, but I can definitely give it back to them. They definitely steal my heart faster than anyone else can because they don't have to ability to lie like humans do. And through the years they're with you, they teach you a lot of things about yourself, and also a few life lessons to get you back on track when you're feeling lost.
Though I would say that they not only take a piece of my heart, they take a piece of my soul as well.

At Crossroads Once Again
So for the past 4 years, I've been working part-time at Dome, even changing my location last year. Now it has come to the point where the upper management have been asking if I'd like to join the company full-time. Honestly, I want to tell them I can and yet I feel I can't.
To join full-time, I'd lose a lot of freedom, especially when it comes to choosing the days I can go about doing things I want. Losing the time to catch up with friends is more of an option really. Everyone who's my classmate in Shatec would know that people in the service industry will never have time on weekends unless they've been booked at least 2 weeks ahead. As for the people who knew me before that, they've either learnt the hard way that I never have time on weekends, and week nights, or they know that they should book me 2 weeks in advance. But the question if is this freedom really worth losing just to try to get into school. Somehow I feel it's the right time. Time to conquer the fear of not being able to handle both situations together.
I somehow know that if I were to stay at this outlet with the people I have now, I will be able to manage both sides. However, if the situation ever asks for either myself or Y.C. to transfer out, I have a feeling things might not go so well. Then again, it's all down to negotiations.
Guess it's time to have a talk with Y.C..
