I realize, suddenly, that everyone is a liar. Memories are like a still life painted by ten different student artists: some will be blue-based; others red; some will be as stark as Picasso and others as rich as Rembrandt, some will be foreshortened and others distant. Recollections are in the eye of the beholder; no two held up side by side will ever quite match.

Waiting for Your Letter

its funny how the world seems more beautiful upside down. as i place my head on the warm crystal micro-beads of sand, i marvel at the beauty of the sky and the houses and the people and the seagulls and the kites flying by;  ... while the blood rushes into my head. an accidental discovery; as i somehow found my body twisted and my head the wrong way up; an outcome of my attempt to run through several work-out routines as my drill sargeant friend barks them out like orders.  it makes you realise, there must be so much beauty out there; so much more world to see that we are missing out on; perhaps because we fail to view it from a different perspective; or because we simply refuse to step out of our little luxury zone; or even because we just let it slip by subconsciously; while it reluctantly stashes up away in one of the million folds of our human brain.
and when i finally straighten myself up and lift my head up the right way; i'm momentarily dazed but the world around me is falling back into place.. the way we've grown so accustomed to.
and its funny too because in my current state of indolence, i'm beginning to notice nuances in things; in people? around me.
Hello 2007, where your world is a glass either half-empty; or half-full.

Without You I'm Nothing
By Placebo

it's that time of the year again. as she tramples along the pathways of the deciduous leaves, crunch, crunch; the feeling beneath her leaves her beaming inwardly with satisfaction. the best part of autumn.

road trips are always fun. always the company that makes it worthwhile. wilsons prom with its vast white sqeaky beaches; massive rocks resembling whales, kneecaps, younameit; stretches of fields; windy, car-sick-inducing roads and hours long of forest trails leading into mountain tops of breath-taking, ineffable beauty. but of course, the best part was the copious amounts of chocolate eggs consumed... not to mention the hot embrace of your shower in the morning after not being allowed the privilege of showering the previous night because your friends kindly used up EVERY DROP of hot water. to all of you who went, you rocked my socks! much love.

His creation never fails to astonish me... everything He designed has a place in this world, everything falls into place..interconnected in one way or another. just like the unfolding of events played out in my life.

and at times, it was almost too painful to breathe. the pain is like a blanket wrapped around your head, where hope is like oxygen and when is runs out... it suffocates you.

but He heals us, He's healing her, He healed me. in the midst of my brokenness; my darkest hours; He provided. and proves there is still hope for the fallen... i was once a fallen leaf but He picked me up and blew me away with His ways. showed me the importance of forgiveness. how He carries our burdens and our weights so we can truly let go of all the hurt and bitterness that was once enmeshed within us. and when you are finally able to look at that person who was once the cause of your anguish and insomniac nights and smile genuinely instead of secretly wishing they would trip over and fall flat on their face or doosh them right in the head...there is only Him to thank. overcoming the ache that was once present, not due to my own resilience but by His grace. yesterday and pain just becomes another wrinkle on our forehead, another crease in the pages of our history; another lesson that was learnt.

to you; who is struggling in an uphill battle of emotional whorls; your heart is bleeding and pleading and everything is one big labyrinthine mess: bear to mind, that His love never fails.

it's like everytime you try to swallow something it feels like you're swallowing rocks.
your stomach is churning and you try to keep still yet your heart is pounding in your head.
you smile but you look around trying to find someone who might make it reach your eyes.
whats this about bridges that move away everytime you try to cross them? wait. bridges don't move.

disorientated. fragments of sub-consciouness which encapsulates me.

i think today i'm just emotionally and physically fatigued.

Goodbye, but Thank You.

Dear      &   ,

how i simply hate goodbyes .sorry; that time is never enough. so much laughter uncontained-the feeling of being on a constant high.clear but a tad blur. never-ending shopping, dining, photos. boost juice..."yeahhh". gay cowboy movies, haha. lights&fireworks.dancing the night away to our fav retro hits. late night sessions of you-know-what.  'i'm so touched i'm so touched i'm so touched' moments.... dayyymn, you sure got me touched. and yes, perhaps next time you'll meet my emo side- which hopefully doesn't surface too often. i seemingly find it easier and easier to keep my emos in check... however erratic they still are.

Thank you, because good friends are hard to come by. i'm still amazed at how blessed i am... mightily.

oh, and i'm sorry i ate all those yellow snakes. but all's good, because sometimes i have to stop being so sentimental.  

for now, my sleep is long-overdue. i have somewhat turned into a nocturnal creature. i miss the fresh morning rays and feeling s-a-t-i-s-f-i-e-d that i still have a long day ahead of me. oh sunny days!

i miss you already.

Lots of love,
Me.

P/S: please do your indian song again. i want to laugh till i cry.

Dancing in the moonlight. Everybody's feelin' warm and right.
It's such a fine and natural sight. Everybody's dancin' in the moonlight.
