Do our hearts know something we don't? [Saturday
March 22nd, 2008]


Your eyes are full

Full of the future of us

The air changes as you look across

At me in that wondering way

 

It is as if

I knew you before we spoke

Do our hearts know something we don't?

Conspiring, converging without giving us any say

  

You, sing me to sleep

Talk down my walls

Look through my windows as I wait

You could be the thief

I give the key to

 

You're ruining me

With secrets and gestures and looks

With sonnets from second-hand books

Playing the chords in me nobody knew how to play
 

Bridge

It fits in your hand like water in rain

It unlocks our two different selves

And shows we are the same

Rather than wait `til I put me out for the taking

You're breaking

You're breaking

You're breaking into my heart

And I'm letting you


One of my favorite songs for now. Love the lyrics, sappy, sweet and nice. There's a few other songs of hers i like as well so i figured i might as well get the whole thing. I've been trying to look for her album but somehow it can't be found. Oh wells.

Too many sappy songs, couples and wedding gowns.

this is my idea of a real marriage. a happy one.

yeah. that'll be it. it's all i ever wanted.

i'll listen to her sing and play the piano.

then i'll sit her on my shoulder and piggyback her around at baybeats, fuji rock or glastonbury.

then we'll take countless polaroids of ourselves, whatever polaroids are left.

and we'll live in a nice apartment in Manhanttan and order starbucks in the morning with cold glass windows and wake up together in pure white quilt beds,and kiss with bad morning breath.


OMG. Its in every way what i'd wish for. One word- PERFECT. =))) I'm back.

I've got ice-cream in my head. [Sunday
March 2nd, 2008]
On those few/rare days that i don;t feel like my usual brilliant self and wonder if there's actually really a brain in my head, I get so damn bloody irritated with myself.

And today's THE day, because i CANNOT find my PDL! where the hell is that lousy pok piece of paper! i swear i searched and dug through my gigantic pile of notes/books/junk. The last time i rmbr, I saw it kiaped btw some book/file/notes/stacks of paper, and i rmbr telling myself that that was a weird place to keep my PDL, and made a bet with myself that the next time i try to find it, i sure cannot. AND THEN TELL ME WHY I DIDN:T TAKE IT OUT AND KEEP IT PROPERLY.

oh man, face the fact woman. You don't have brains. well, maybe a bit, but not much of one anyway. (argh.)

Its time i snapped out of things. There's no point getting upset over someone who sees you as dispensable and who doesn;t appreciate you.

Today i got a breather, I thought about things and sorted out plans for the future. And when i got things more settled, i realised i was this jaded and exhausted. But its all good now.

And to end things off, one of my favorite sappy sonnets for all you romantics.

Sonnet XVII

I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as certain dark things are loved,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that doesn't bloom and carries
hidden within itself the light of those flowers,
and thanks to your love, darkly in my body
lives the dense fragrance that rises from the earth.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where,
I love you simply, without problems or pride:
I love you in this way because I don't know any other way of loving

but this, in which there is no I or you,
so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand,
so intimate that when I fall asleep it is your eyes that close.     

                                                                                                               - Pablo Neruda

I don;t know why you choose to have things this way. But if someone told you you were in the way of their happiness and they want you out of their lives, would you still stay? So i won;t be hanging around any longer.

have a happy life stranger.

Across the Universe. [Tuesday
January 29th, 2008]
Can't you see?
All these tears, pain, heartbreaks and heartaches, sleepless nights and tear-stained cheeks.
It'll all be okay, once you grow up.


Watched 27dresses over the weekend cos one must do all they can to make themselves happier. Its your usual chick-flick kind of thing but one of the sappiest movies i've watched for a long while. I love sappy movies. The romantic mind-blowing plots, finding the perfect one and settling down in the prettiest wedding ever. And i realised i forgot all of that for a long while. All i wanted was so simple. Why couldn;t i see that? Blueberry waffles, ice-cream, slacking on the couch and watching countless DVDs till we finally fall asleep. That to me is more than perfect.

In a while i'll be 20, and i feel the desperate need to catch what's left of my remaining youth and to be great.
And now, I'm praying for a miracle, some sort of redemption and grace. It'll all be okay, you'll be fine you see, we'll all be. If need be, fight till the end and I'll be next to you, in prayer.

\ Deja vu

Bad things never fail to happen.
And you see the only thing you can do is to suck it up and force yourself to deal with it. I managed not to cry yesterday. And yes i'm growing stronger, I have to be, I chose to think so.

And i thought about it, 40years later when i'm 60 and gng to die soon, would all this matter to me anymore. I doubt.

So get ready to welcome me and my gnormous smile. There's nothing i can do but be happy.

And i'm horribly horribly sick, the flu bug landed on me. And And And i jinxed myself by telling chrystal that ever since JC i seem to have no more cramps. My period as well as the glorious cramp came last night.

Today one of my uni friend made a really bad joke, and till now, i realised its still ringing in my head.

So we just had lunch and i was horribly sleepy/grumpy, afterall i still had 7 hrs more in sch and a freaking 4hrs lecture.
then we were talking about how our other friends, Shimah ponned sch today.
And then the random voice spoke
" If shimah was a hero, you know what she would be?"

and evryone was like what? superman/spiderman?

and he said,

"hiroshima"

kill me now.

its 2008. And i'm writing an article which is not working out and i'm not proud of it=(
And no resolutions for me this year, hate them.

I haven;t had an easy year at all, the very fact that i started off the 2007 alone and ended it alone as well. I learnt how naive i was. I always didn;t understand how one could stop loving someone you used to love so much and it surprised me to find out that time can make you love someone as well as unlove someone else. Along the way we learn i guess.

But from all, I now know who i can depend on to stand by me and who i cannot. By that i don't mean taking my side and all but simply believing in my good and simply being there to accompany me. And i take back what i said about virtual friends and virtual hugs because they do make me feel better and just cos a friend isn;t physically there doesn't mean they don;t care.
So thank you, you have no idea how much i love you all. haha=)

If anything at all, i wouldn;t be alive or standing here if not for the grace of God, which is smthg you haven;t heard me say in a long time. Although the relationship is still pretty strained, i know he kept me alive. I took things worse than i ought to cos i've never been so low before and i allowed myself to dwell in it. Its in the weak that he is magnified, and i dare say that my existence is the very prove of his strength. You wasnlt there to see what a wreck i was, how i stopped living, how i cried and cried and cried, how my physical pain could not numb me from the pain inside, how i stood in the middle of the road waiting for a damn car to come, how lost and helpless i was, how i stopped eating, going for lessons. I'm not ashamed of the stupid things i did when i was so low because it all proves how he picked me up and helped me move on. So for that, thank you Lord.

Life isn;t great now, far from my happy flower life during secondary sch. But i'm fine and happy. I'm very determined to make this year a blast to make up for my past year of shittiness.

For those who stood by me in 2007, thank you.

*back to my damn article=(

\\ Now its time to say goodbye.
been hell busy, be it physically or mentally but life's been crazy.

2008 better not be anything like 2007=)
other than that i've got my results back and damn, i dunno what to say abt them. Just that next sem, look out for me, i promise to be genuis.=)
like what i said at the start of uni life, that i didn't come here to be ordinary, so i just won;t be, Last sem was an unfortunate wreck because of so many things but now life's offering me alternate routes to take to walk away from where i am standing and i'll take it- gladly.

So here it is, happy new year to you all. hope u had a better 2007 than i did and a even greater 2008=)

Along the way, science has got you brainwashed, has got you thinking that things must occur in a certain way.
But i tell you, in this space, paper can break stone walls.

[ mood | sick ]

Maybe thats why i'm so interested in photography. I've decided on my first series (thats is when i do get a cam) i want to capture true/real/unposed emotions, because that would help me, to understand the emotions/feelings i feel now, that of sadness, loss, grieve, pain and loneliness and show me once more the emotions and feelings that i've since lost- happinesss and joy.
i truly hope that one day i'll have a feature on myself, because i see people everyday, see how they smile/laugh/talk/eat, but i never do get to see myself in those real/natural/unposed moments. I want to see myself, understand myself better. And most of all, i would love to see a picture of myself, smiling with true happiness and joy.
sometimes i wished i was drop dead gorgeous or weird looking enough to be a model so they would take picture of me. Its just sad to be plain and boring.

Today my heart is aching, but i won't tell you why.

I dunno what else to say except that every bit of me prays and wish that you are fine.
So please be.

Take care.

no sunday school answers. [Monday
November 19th, 2007]
And all there was, those soft murmurs, ramblings, gossips, that tear her down, bones beaten, heart cold. Against the rage of the wind, that scornful thrust. Slowly but surely, it drains out every last breath of hers. she hears the songs of the night, the christmas carols. But all those, so far away so distant, they never reach her. With one last drop of tear, the sodden ground, she turns her back against this hateful world and lets herself go free. Forgotten, by the world forgot. Don't fade away now.
