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。

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.

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

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.

 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.

went out with cyn on mon to work on our gem proj.. i just hope we're on the right track.. green tea latte frm starbucks taste really good but its really ex.. hahaha..
ytd went out with cyn and bibi to use up our movie passes.. they've been lying there for abt half a yr or more and are expiring in a few days.. doink.. watched no reservations.. not too bad a show but it wasn't fantastic or anything.. we took neoprints! hahaha.. my first time taking neoprints with my new specs hoho.
today went out with pin and joan to kbox.. it was.. a little messy at first.. but evthg worked out i guess.. hoho we really got kee siao.. started off fine and normal really.. ended up screaming songs like wad i've done and complicated.. seriously screaming.. but it was fun:) i conclude, we love linkin park coz of the way we're able to scream the songs properly..
couldnt find this song though i wanted to sing it.. hoho.. and after this, it'll be a hell lot of mugging to do.. self: jiayou!!

i was young but i wasn't naive
i watched helpless as he turned around to leave
and still i have the pain i have to carry
a past so deep that even you could not bury if you tried

after all this time
i never thought we'd be here
never thought we'd be here
when my love for you was blind
but i couldn't make you see it
couldn't make you see it
that i loved you more than you'll ever know
a part of me died when i let you go

i would fall asleep
only in hopes of dreaming
that everything would be like it was before
but nights like this it seems are slowly fleeting
they disappear as reality is crashing to the floor

after all this why
would you ever wanna leave it
maybe you could not believe it
that my love for you was blind
but i couldn't make you see it
couldn't make you see it
that i loved you more than you will ever know
a part of me died when i let you go
that i loved you more than you'll ever know
a part of me died when i let you go

ytd was dnd.. everything went pretty much ok except for some glitches here and there.. it was fun taking photos with ppl coz of the stuff that they were wearing haha.. but as it got later, my eyes turned red again.. seriously i got all sian diao and i think i showed my general disinterest in ppl/things/happenings ard me.. even up till when i went back to hall, ppl were expressing their concerns for me but i guess i just threw a temper at them coz i was really feeling upset and fed up at myself.. v sorry, esp to samson and joey.. its just a v sickening feeling to have, when u alr have things that u need to do, and plans that u alr have in place.. i dun want to find out that its conjunc and have to isolate myself this hols.. haiz..
this morning it was still as red as ever, so i decided i shld go to see the doctor.. yih doc not open *pretty expected*, so decided to go see the doc i usu go to at bt batok.. den went to clementi to my optician.. its not conjunc, but probably some kinda infection.. got eye drops and some med.. at least i dun have to keep away frm ppl, so my plans aren't spoilt.. the redness is alr clearing up, and its v fast considering how red it was last night.. so i argued with my mum abt going to see the specialist.. at least she relented.. haha. but eh i'll have to go without contacts for half a yr, that's wad my optician said.. oh wells im fine with it lah since i wun need to play sports of any kind anyway hehe
anyway, start of recess wk.. not much of a rest if u ask me but at least i guess i get to slp at earthly hours and wake up at earthly hours. and at least my pms doesnt get aggravated, i hope. out of sight, out of mind, it works for some material things, like.. my printer. so that's good hahaha

note: this is just a one-off rant and i'll be fine v soon. i just need somewhere to say something because there's no one to say it to.
u noe it sux when everything just doesnt seem to go ur way. u are already trying so hard to keep out those negative thoughts, and it just doesnt help that its the pms period.
everything just crashes down on u, even when all of them are small and insignificant, coz they all start attacking u when u are the weakest, and u are just rendered helpless.
so u can only sit down and pray that tml will be a better day.
but it sux a whole lot worse when u alr noe tml is going to be a bad day, if wad u predict comes true.
