of the things that you find online..

of gems and otherwise.

this is cruel.. though maybe a lesson to be learnt here

this is just beautiful. I hope I never lose sight of the important things

Things you never knew. Check out #42

ugh..

I still don't know what I'm doing.
Supposed to have picked a direction but I'm still circling aimlessly..

failed marketing segmentation & positioning??

(at a wedding dinner)

B: Hey, how come you're here alone? Where's your gf?
Me: You're also here alone.. Where's your gf? Which one are you referring to?
B: The last one I saw? The 18yo.
Me: 18yo? Are you sure you have the right person?
B: Yea.. you brought her during CNY what.
Me: How long ago was this?
B: Last year or the year before.. Neh.. the short short cute cute one?
Me: That should be W. She's not 18.... She's older than us.
B: Sure or not? The short and cute one wor..
Me: Should be her. And it wasn't CNY, it was your niece's full moon.
B: Oh yeah.. But she looks no more than 21.
Me: ......

(at a local pub)

J: Hey do you remember my cousin, the one that you and K were asking if she's legal yet? She thinks you're cute.
Me: Oh?
J: Yeala, she texted me after the dinner last week and said "Oh it was a great dinner and all that" and then she said "The guy who looks like SL ah yee's ex is cute" to which I said," The one who looks like a gorilla?"
"If you wanna call him that, yea"
"But he's 10 years older than you"
"I'm just saying he's cute"
J: So yea! She just turned 18 last week. So how? Can ar?
Me: ... She's 18! And I'm 12 years older..
J: You're 30 this year?
Me: Yes...

(cue peals of laughter)

*wail*

idiocy knows no bounds

what the fuck am i doing?

karma?

If karma was efficient in dealing out retributions and rewards, the world would be a lot better place. But it isn't.
So don't put too much stock in it and just be the best person that you can be.
Not because you don't want retribution but because you want to be the best person that you can be.

When I was in love with God
I never thought we'd part like this.
Goodbye, Goodbye, as many times as it takes
I heartlessly tell myself
Waving goodbye is kindness, isn't it?
I wish I had strength now.

Meeting you, the stars shone, I was born.
As long as I love. As Long as 'I' exist
Don't let me go ever again.
Hold me tight.
"You're not alone", the planet wants you to whisper

Anime translated song

Who are you gonna kiss?
My pure heart is gonna race around the stars
With wimps and crybabies in tow
I think I'm gonna go again

More than loving, more than demanding
I'm frustrated that doubting is so much easier for me

It hurts
such as "we're friends, but i don't love you"
or "i'll protect you, but i can be by your side"
bitter mutual incompatibility

Right this second, touch me
if this is fate, let it connect

Who are you gonna kiss?
Me? Or Maybe that other girl?
instead of heart-wrenching words
just irresponsibly embrace the edge

taking the procedure @ Lacuna Inc.

Sometimes during the ebb, I imagine myself as the character, Joel Barish and I'd go visit Lacuna Inc. and be done with the memories and the person

But that'd be cowardly and I want to be anything but.
Nothing's changed. My feelings haven't changed.

But sometimes, just sometimes,
I just want to take that procedure and be over it and never meet her again.

But like most of my thoughts, it's merely a flight of fancy

seriously..

Do things because you think it's the right one to do for you.

Don't do it because you think it's the right thing to do for me.

I and I alone decide what is right by me.

running on empty..

It's funny how emotional extremes gives you an alternative source of energy.
I went to bed at 4.
fell asleep at 4.30.
woke up every roughly half an hour.
then probably managed to sleep for a time period longer than half an hour at 7..

THEN the alarm rings at 9.30.
And here I am at 9.35. Not feeling sleepy at all.
And it's fucking raining..
There goes my sunday plans.

Abso-fucking-lutely perfect.

You'd think that it's obvious by now..

I AM an idiot

This monday I like

A good start to the week..
still tongue-tied
but very happy nonetheless =)
I can't believe that I still can't stop smiling like some sort of retarded monkey.

but i shouldn't delay the inevitable..
enough people have heard me moan and gripe about it.

for a person who says carpe diem, I don't do it nearly often enough.
I guess it's always easier to say what you'd like to do instead of doing what you ought to do.
But I'm still working up the courage

bleh

on the radio sometime this week

I was driving to work one morning and I heard this on the radio

"This XXX radio station and we're inviting you to tell us what is the worst love songs that you have ever dedicated or been dedicated. We just heard "Hate that I love you" by Rihanna featuring Ne-yo. We just had a caller calling telling us that she cried when she heard that song as she'd just broken up with her bf recently and it really speaks to her. We're sorry to hear about the break-up, XXX, and we hope you'll feel better soon."

"Coming up next, Pink with "Please don't leave me."

Is it just me or would other people find it funny too? If you don't, it's not important.. just simply only.

when context and time and place matters

"rest assured
that u dont look anywhere near happy
that is a compliment"

^_-

good morning

"..Hello, I've just got to let you know
'Cause I wonder where you are
And I wonder what you do
Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?
Tell me how to win your heart
For I haven't got a clue
But let me start by saying, I love you ... "

bits of one of the songs from the recital

"..God knows it's easy to hide,
From the things that you feel
And harder to blindly trust
What you can't understand
God knows it's easy to run,
From the people you love
And harder to stand and fight
For the things you believe.."

History

There are certain lessons to be learnt from history.
How wars are lost
How wars are won

Why a civilization fell,
how doing something right can be the best thing you ever did

If you can't learn from the past then you're doomed to forever repeat your mistakes.
How I will never lend a certain someone money because they start coming up with all sort of excuses how they can't pay you
How I will never expect anything from certain people because those expectations would be unreasonable and unattainable by their standards
How I will not draw/imagine patterns where there are none.

Those are the lessons you learn amongst others.
So who says history isn't important?
;)

Oh you make me smile

"You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like a bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile"

童话

sometimes, dreams are just meant to be just that.

Dreams.

finito

The ending's already written.
I know it deep down inside.
But still I try to eke what I can out of it.
To try and temper the bitter.
