Opportunity.

October 28, 2008

So the Pete Murray song is stuck in my head. It has been since, last week? Always lurking somewhere in my brain. I think I and D play it too much on the guitar.

It’s that feeling that you get, when someone tells you you’re wonderful, for no reason at all, and out of the blue. You never expect that something you did, even the smallest thing, could have made someone smile, or just made someone’s day a little better. I still don’t know what it was, but I guess I don’t have to know. It makes me happy just knowing.

Don’t be scared of what you cannot see
Your only fear is possibility
Never wonder what the hell went wrong
Your second chance may never come along


I’m gonna take that chance, which might fly or flunk, but hey it’s always worth a shot. I’ve got nothing to lose. There’s only to gain when you take leaps like that. You live and you learn.

Don’t pause too long

3:30am.

October 21, 2008

Seriously, I’ve watched about 3 episodes of Boston Legal, 2 episodes of Greys, edited like a million photos from the other day, tried to do some reading, tried to do some writing, I’m tired, but I just can’t sleep. And I haven’t reached the week where I can do without sleep because of assignments, I’m a week away! I actually WANT to sleep. I NEED to sleep. Give me a few more minutes and I’ll be done editing this entire set. Now it’s nearly 4am, I’m going to try and get some word count on my assignment since I’m awake, and try to make it to class at 9am. Go me. Whooopee.

My prettiest friend.

TwentyOneThanks perhaps is not enough to say all that I should, but you’re awesome, and I would hate to have to say goodbye to you. Let’s save the tears and the farewells for now, and make memories to keep for when we’re in the same place again. We’ll catch up and sit at Borders/Gloria Jeans soon ok? (:

Tied.

cos I’m the one who loves you lately / you and me we’ve got this great thing

So my brain is running at hundred miles per hour, perhaps in all directions except the one that I really should be concentrating on. Moving on with life isn’t the easiest, especially when you have no idea what comes next. The future is a looming, dark creature, you’re unwilling to talk about just like the boogieman. I will officially finish up on the 10th and about a month plus into all that, I will officially be a graduate. Ooo, scary.

It’s mango and grape season now, yum. Summer. Sun!

Distracted, obviously. Okay, I will finish, and I will finish, awesome.

Blooops.

October 13, 2008

There’s something fascinating about watching lumps of idon’treallyknowwhat, slowly going up and down, like, bloop, bloop, blooop. I love watching the lavalamp. Not just cos it’s red, but it’s really pretty. Something therapeutic. Somehow, it makes me take deep breaths, and relax. Blooop. Bloop. Blop.

It’s 5:45am in the morning, the birds have all woken up and are singing their lungs out to welcome the sunrise. Spring is in the air, it’s been 26++deg lately, perfect weather for taking long walks and sitting out on the grassy lawns. October for some reason has been a hectic month of trying to finish up assignments and catching up with people and lives, and a fair number of 21st birthdays. I still have no idea why everything always comes at one shot. Plus, November is coming, bringing with it more datelines, but also a good break from uni (I’m finally getting that paper degree, pending last few modules).
I love how life springs you surprises at every turn of the road, and although it’s not always good, they usually work themselves out and in time, you realize that it had to happen that way anyway. Looking back at my posts at the same time a year ago, my habits are still the same, I write when I’m completely loss for words in the academic sector and need some place else to put all these excess thoughts and feelings. That still hasn’t changed, but everything else has. I always wonder how come time passes so fast, and stand amazed at the number of things that can change in just a year.
Somethings you don’t want to change.
Well, with time, people and things, mostly people, move on with life, not necessarily in the same direction as you. It’s coming to that time of the year again, where goodbyes have to happen. I’m not thinking too much about it cos hey, life has to go on. But I will miss you. Needless to say.
The clock says 6:15am now. Perhaps I should try to get some sleep before the world wakes up. Enough musing for now.

I heart Singapore!

October 4, 2008

So, the piece of home in home away from home was rather exciting, a little overwhelming, but exciting. The was good chicken rice, and it’s always a pleasure to see familiar faces and meet new ones. Being typically Singaporean (think kiasu and freebies), and speaking in guilt-free Sing-rish for a whole day was nostalgic, and a reminder about the little sunny island near the equator; home truly. The two week break has gone by rather quickly, it’ll be back to school once again, and things will be be picking up, if things aren’t already fast enough. Life’s been good, really, couldn’t ask for more. Okay, daylight savings just started, and I realised that it’s already nearly 5am. Time for some shut eye. Love!
