Got time to kill?

Watch this cutie brawl his brains out by singing Hey Jude by music legend The Beatles. Oh and fyi, he's Korean.

I wonder.

We share more prominent things than anybody else we know.And yet, it seems to me as though we're deteriorating into something less than strangers. I don't know what to feel anymore, and still I wonder about your feelings too. Don't think I'll be here all the time, because everyone leaves for their own path some time and I'm fairly certain I am about to embark on my journey soon enough. I hope you're well, take care and it's alright if I have to get a gist of what you're going through through someone else. Things happen; deal with it. There is no pain now, only silence.

Deprived Pt I - Food

I feel like poo today.


Why?


My stomach is growling, and it rained today.


In short, I'm really hungry plus I don't really like it when it rains and I'm stuck at home.


Cause my dad, I told him last night just before I turned in.


And still, he forgot to buy me my lunch.


D':


Oh and he just rang the house line saying he needed me to open the auto-gate cause he forgot his remote. I thought he finally came home with my lunch or in this case a really late lunch, but he came home with his *'fish friends' instead.

[* = friends of my dad who rear japanese koi at home]


Sigh.



p/s : On a lighter note, visit Ceci's blog to see what nonsense I came up with while talking to her yesterday.

24.05.09 - day + night

Went out to hang with my bud(short for buddy), Agnes. It's been a long while since we both been out together to just to chill. Walked, talked, laughed, shopped and all else at City Square. It was good catching with you bud! :D


Met a couple of ex-schoolmates from Convent with their current college mates at Vivo. Said hi and had a short chat, then left to continue our walking cause we were going to have dinner together with them and Si Wei later on at night in celebration of Si Wei turning 18. Si Wei came over and fetched us to the Korean restaurant where I had my first Korean meal. We had kimchi(vege with some spicy paste), loads of other tiny dishes, meat and lettuce, ricecakes, and some form of steamboat as well. Oh and we drank soju(traditional Korean wine)! Si Wei got really red after a cup or two.


All in all, I got to catch up with Agnes, Si Wei, Esther and Tracy yesterday. I even got to listen to some Korean music from Tracy's laptop(lol). Sorry your present wasn't as awesome as the ones from the others Si Wei, I didn't have time to prepare. Thanks for dinner and the ride, and the girls for a good meal together. Kamsahamida!



Here are the pictures.

Burning tree


She set a tree on fire today.
Watching it burn, it surprised her how much relief it brought to her.
Although the smoke was everywhere and the smell unbearable, the sting in both her eyes and nose were ignored.
Eyeing the black cloud of smoke as it rose into the air, finally she felt like she could breathe again.
Even the roots were not spared, the seed was thus destroyed.
Smiling to herself, she thought to herself;
She set a tree on fire today.

"I don't understand."

Amuse me

Do not tell yourself there isn't a way out,
but do not attempt to dissimulate either.
Try putting an end to this, be strong, for
the worst is yet to come, everyone says.


It's very amusing to me how you start conversations and how I don't know how to continue from there. Then again, why would I confess this?

I'll forget it all completely, don't worry.


Question : How many times in your life have you thought - "Not exactly what I expected/wanted, but it'll do." ?
Comments, anyone?

Where I'm to go

In or out doesn't really matter. I can't seem to close an eye but now there's just no point. Amidst the dark, wondering where to go. I've been doing circles. But if you know, you'd show. Collapse and pray that someone might take the time to notice your absence, else prepare instruments to stitch yourself right up. Coruscate if you will, just don't hog the limelight and keep it from the rest of us. Between burnt wet wood and wet burnt wood, they're similar yet not the same. As for me I have chosen to follow the ephemeral. Uncover your aegis all of you, I dare you.



It has been finalised. I will be starting my course at Management Development Institution of Singapore(MDIS) on the 29th of June. As of today I am left with 53 days before I go back to facing paper and studies. I'll be doing Mass Communications there for about 33 months, and then I'll come out with a degree. A mere 2 years and 9 months! I won't deny the waves of fear and nerves hitting me now and then, it's torturous to a certain extent. Not knowing what to expect, not knowing what I'm getting into, not knowing how I'll do. But then again, that's just about how everyone else feels at some point of their lives. I was told that I need to be outspoken. And towards the end, I'll have to make a 3-weeks long trip to Oklahoma City University where I'll finish the last of my degree course.

It's crazy, I know.

I decided to post that just so I don't have to go around telling everyone. People who read this shall know and the others who don't would have to ask me to find out. Oh and I'll be travelling in and out of Singapore on the days when I have my classes, anyone up for being my travel partner?


p/s : Hooked onto Tegan and Sara! :D

'Us'



Tell me how the story ends.

The story that started out with the both of us.
The story about the two of us.
The story that ended with only us.

What went wrong?
Why didn't things work out?
Does this mean it's over?

I don't want you perfect, I'm just asking for you to try and understand.
It's been hard enough to get where we are now.

So paint me a pile of pictures, if it were to say a thousand words.
Because right now, I don't think a million would do.

It's a free fall now.
I've got nothing to hold onto, nothing to lose.
Them vultures, they await my despair.

Ce cher ami

We once stood together, a well bonded circle. But it is no more complete, it's just a broken string now. It's as if we're all wearing blindfolds, walking around but never touching. I don't get it, why can't you all see? I just feel like taking you by your shoulders and shaking you awake.



What's so hard to understand?



Maybe there was never a circle to begin with. Perhaps it was just my wishful thinking, my silly imagination running wild on its own. Don't try to tell me how to feel, even if I don't seem to be alright. I can't keep up with everything, I am but a human.


That wall of shame I have just keeps building up but I'm not afraid of others seeing it.

I shouldn't be afraid, no, I shouldn't harbor any fear at all. No, I'll rise and blind everyone else but me.

And maybe the others will squint and falter.



Then again, I should stop living in the past.

Oh well, back to reality. Bed now, g'd night!
