It's a damn cold night...

Forgiving is love's toughest work, and love's biggest risk. To forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you.
いつか失ってしまうのかな。薄れてゆく笑顔と君を守りたい。

If fate is a wheel, then we are the sand that is crushed between the cogs.

Don't judge a life by one difficult season.

独自并不代表孤单,在一群人中狂笑着有时更寂寞。
-- 吴庆康

At times it may not even seem rational, but the heart has a computing ability that is far more accurate and far more precise than anything within the limits of rational thought.
-- Deepak Chopra
于是我让孤独更孤独,有一种不是悲伤的悲伤,才是刻骨铭心的悲伤。
Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love.
-- St Francis.
People's actions are influenced by their expectations. People respond not just to what is happening now, but to what they anticipate will happen in the future.
-- Sloman
不管你会不会忘了我,我只想告诉你一个秘密。
--《不能说的·秘密》

Every action generates a force of energy that returns to us in like kind.
-- Deepak Chopra

The furthest distance in the world is not between life and death but when I stand in front of you yet you don't know that I love you.
-- Tagore
Do do not worry about tomorrow; it will have enough worries of its own. There is no need to add to the troubles each day brings.
-- Matt 6:34

まだ不器用に笑うね まだ悲しみが似合うから
キミに降る痛みを 拭ってあげたい すべて I for you
-- I For You

the optimistic pessimist

supposedly an adult, she thinks like an adult (too much, if you ask me). deep inside, she is nothing but a little girl, with her little lofty dreams and ideals. and oops, she is breaking them, one by one.
more often than not, she is just an angsty emo kid.

she is only but
a passer-by,

an onlooker,
a walking shadow.

and this girl can't stop writing.

After all, what is in the past but what we choose to remember? They can choose not to hide it, to take what's broken, to feel the pain and know that it will heal. They know where happiness lies, not in a cave or a country, but in love and the freedom to give and take what has been there all along.

Others desire to experience the blessedness of giving, but we often frustrate them by refusing their help.

 Memories were also a way of looking in a mirror, but it was a jagged mirror of broken glass, one that cast imperfect reflections. Like shards, these memories drew blood.

Responsibility means not blaming anyone or anything for your situation, including yourself... Whatever relationships you have attracted in your life at this moment are precisely the ones you need in your life at this moment. There is a hidden meaning behind all events, and this hidden meaning is serving your own evolution.

I don't know, I don't know. Sometimes I feel like I'm a pair of eyes and ears, and I'm just trying to stay safe and make sense of what's happening. I know what to avoid, what to worry about.I'm like those kids who live with gunfire going off around them. I don't want pain. I don't want to die. I don't want to see other people around me die. But I don't have anything left inside me to figure out where I fit in or what I want. If I want anything, it's to know what's possible to want.

well well.. time for some updates..
on sat the zoo went to el's house for a sleepover.. bao its a pity u missed it man.. we didnt really have a plan of what to do but somehow we just got things going.. its pretty amazing how much stuff we can still talk abt.. we basically spent quite a bit of time just talking.. and maybe we did talk abt too many ghosts.. el's posters just kept falling off.. even into the night.. its quite freaky really.. haha we just occupied ourselves with random stuff like.. looking through el's wardrobe, watching ayumi's pvs, dinner at pizzahut, watching a hilarious ad on el's com.. really random stuff.. oh yes not forgetting doing yoga with bea.. haha.. it was funny.. and somehow we got to playing some silly game with the blanket.. all the weird stuff that we do man.. den me and bea talked to nearly 3am.. and guess wad i was the one who's going to wake up the earliest. at 6.30am
so i did wake up at 6.30 *miracle* while everyone else in the house, including the maid was sleeping. went down to get el up, though we realized later that it was of no use since i could open the door myself without a key.. den i was in the study room alone when i heard a bang in the living room. looked out but of course there was nothing.. no wind, no one.. den i got reminded of wad el said.. oh well.. den v soon after someone knocked on the glass window panes of the study room. nearly scared me, but it was the maid.. haha.. everything else after went fine, as though it was my own house.. its always a nice time out with the zoo *beams* oh yes bao remind me to give u the neoprints we took..
went for interview at nyps ytd.. nearly late coz i couldnt find the main gate >< it went pretty well coz mdm heng, the principal, was v nice abt everything i said.. maybe coz i was agreeing with everything she said.. haha.. so i was told to wait for a call today.. well even the guards were nice to me.. they said hope to see u soon when i was leaving:)
and so i waited.. but missed the call coz i left my phone alone for 5min.. idiotic.. i called back but the person obviously wasn't the one who called me.. i guess i couldn't make her understand that someone from the sch really called me.. so i had to continue waiting.. finally it came after i took the btt and was going to cyn's house for dinner.. yeah people, i got the job! yoohoo.. pay isn't as high as i expected, but alot more work and stuff i didnt expect is sure to come.. still im excited coz its wad i really wanna do and experience.. its nthg abt the pay.. i just wanna know how its like..
i'll be off to china soon.. take care people.. and happy cny to all, since i wun be here then.. :)

wad does the poster mean to me? i guess mum doesnt know when she insisted on throwing it away,over some stupid reason not worth rmbring, though i tried to snatch it.. though she finally realized it meant something, since i sulked and left the room to prevent myself from saying anything nasty, it was too late i guess..
wad does it mean to lose something dear to u? would it be the same if u got it back again?
throwing it away and keeping it in a corner in the drawer. to mum they're all the same. to me its a whole lot of difference.

im still jobless:( haha nvm.. i want a job.. its pretty sickening sitting at home doing nothing when u are doing it for a really long time.. and mum will tell me to do household chores all the time coz i "got nothing to do mah.." sometimes i just want some time off with no one to shout to ask me to go out to do smth.. no one to suddenly creep up to say "wah u playing game ah".. it gives me a fright usually, as though im supposed to be doing work..
but sometimes it sux when everywhere is so quiet.. so that's why a radio is always nice:) and of coz, jay's nov's chopin.. hoho..

ytd was pretty fun and cool man.. met up the pw group for dinner and countdown.. never expected mum to allow me to go for it but still.. haha.. casie came late coz she had work.. so we went walking around first and we met jc and sum! haha so funny.. gaying tgt haha.. sum looked v happy.. den later we were eating so slowly while waiting for casie to come, all the waiters were looking at us and we were trying hard to ignore them.. haha.. so in the end we stayed there for 2h i think haha..
den we left for city hall while joanne went home.. it was really crowded.. and hot.. casie was dying liaoz.. she was really tired.. but the fireworks really perked her up.. haha.. it was really nice and she thought it was really worth it.. same here:) though our view was blocked by trees and stuff coz we were all facing the wrong direction..
the real challenge was to get home.. it was so damn crowded we were being pushed around quite terribly.. walked quite abit before we got to the mrt stat.. wanted to take train to orch den take NR buses home.. i should have just taken the train from there straight and take 14 home lah.. casie wanted to take NR3 while i was waiting for other NR buses at another bus stop.. in the end she took some weird bus that she herself also dunno goes where! except that it goes to cck.. told her to ask the bus driver.. it was real late by then lah..
den the stupid buses refused to come and when it did it was too crowded for me to get on. the last mrt has long left.. ended up taking taxi.. oh wells.. haha
barney and i were really worried for casie coz she never replied our msges or answered her phone.. right till both of us reached home we still couldnt contact casie.. it was already nearly 3am by then lah.. lucky abt 15min later she msged and said she reached home.. phew.. so ended up sleeping at 3.30am..
but still it was nice:) i'll remember my mission..
