Soulmates?

Finally, this fabulous blog is up and running! As you can see, this blog is administered by 2 chics who have more in common than any 2 other persons in the world. And, they are not sisters, not old friends (meaning friends for more than 5 years), not even of the same age, did not go to the same school, and are not even of the same age!!! Now, they are not even living in the same countries.

So, who are we? And how did we get to know each other or even realize that we have 99% of similar interests in celebs, shopping, clothes, movies, etc.. You name it, we've got it!

I was a newcomer in this company that we used to work for. We were never really formally introduced, so never really "chatted" other than the usual ("hi", "bye").

Until one fine day, this girl came up to me and exclaimed, "OMG! You've got good taste! I almost bought that dress. It looks great on you!!" All i could think about was, "Oh cool! But maybe she was just being tactful and courteous."

Then, as time went by, we started lunching together and of course, when u lunch, u tend to chat. You know, create conversation and try to keep it going? It was terribly easy with this girl! We couldn't stop rattling on and on about stuff. What's scary was that we even had similar habits which we both thought were weird (which I'd rather not mention here *grin*).

Lunch together once a week became twice a week, and soon it was everyday. Of course, we never spent all 2 hours eating. It was more shopping than lunching. Yes yes.. we're major SHOPAHOLICS!!

Sigh... we've only became great friends for about a couple of months when I realise I had to leave Singapore to come to the UK. So, we decided that we should setup a blog to call our own. So, this is where we are now.

Oops, forgot to introduce thyself... I'm Mabel and my soulmate is none other than G3! I have had many friends from school whom I still keep in touch with. Some very good friends, but none like G3, whom I share so many interests with. Its creepy to think about how much we have in common. Are we what you call soulmates?

According to Wikipedia,

Soulmate (or soul mate) is a term sometimes used to designate someone with whom one has a feeling of deep and natural affinity, friendship, love, intimacy, sexuality, and/or compatibility.

A related concept is that of the twin flame or twin soul - thought to be the ultimate soulmate, the one and only other half of one's soul, for which all souls are driven to find and join.

However, not everyone who uses these terms intends them to carry such mystical connotations; they are sometimes used simply as an expression of strong emotional feeling for someone.

Will try to blog again tomorrow.

Ciao~
