At The Works

What more can i ask for: Late night, beautiful sky, funky friends, good food, empty streets.

haha, I am a happy soul this weekend. Having endured final SS despite a bout of flu and climbed 3x 13 storeys, smth i never expected i'll do. Saturday was spent basically under the light drizzle of the rain all day, from early morning till night. I skipped tuition for the first time ( i think ) Totally unintentional, i swear it was the downpour in the afternoon and the bad traffic. Saturday night was hell lot of fun, kinda like a celebratory hang out after sooo long. I swear i am a night animal, i would spend every sat night like that if i could, having supper & doing silly things, walking on the empty streets or just simply listening to a band playing out love songs. haha. Upper thomson road and The Cathay brings back beautiful memories for me, and to revive them all in one day was totally worth it, despite sacrificing my beauty sleep and sporting a bad nose. I love spending late nights, even morning outside home. : D

The next day was equally enjoyable too. Dearest mel, my twin has made my day today. i can't bear to use the plasters ! But it will serve as a motivation for me, thanks for giving me a "tug tug" every now and then. I really needed that. : D

Never have i been more sure
So come up to me and close the door
Nobody's made me feel this way
You're everything i wanted and more.

Cynical & Jaded

A rather early posting from me here tonight. The past week i've suffered from serious lack of sleep, so much so it ended on a REALLY bad note towards the end of it. I've never felt so jaded before but i guess there's always new emotions that jumps out from behind and catches me off-guard.

Another reason to top off this bad week could be because of my horrible left leg. All injuries seem to target my left leg for some strange reason. To look on the bright side, luckily that's not my dominant leg, if not i'll be playing worse than i already am. haha, first it was my hip. Thanks to sock's suggestion of doing lunges and stretching, it does relieve some of the pain. :) Next up was my ankle, felt like someone whacked it or a nerve near the ankle had been overstretched. Good thing is, it shows that the power drills has worked its magic. I felt like i could die when i got home after Wed. haha. Pain is good.

On a random note, WU gnixaij didn't call this week. Having too much fun travelling around New York City? Coincidentally, im plugged into my ipod and the song "New York City" is playing. haha. maybe i shall drop a phone call next week. HMM. Too much stuff to do, too little time.

Oh, have i mentioned, on sat after getting home from tuition, i went for a "NAP". Unintentionally, i fell into a deep sleep and never woke up until my body clock worked its magic and i find myself awake 9 hours later at 3am, contacts on, dressed in outside clothes anda growling stomach ( having skipped dinner) Best part, my mum didn't bother to wake me up AGAIN, though she knew i havent had dinner. HURRR.

Fatigue, it's getting to me. I gotta start hitting the books soon, i really hate them. But like what Charmaine said to me in class the other time, i gotta start making friends with my subjects then they'll start to like me and maybe they'll help me when the day comes that i desperately need them. ha. maybe that's the secret to scoring well. I'll try, i will. ;)

Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When your heart is heavy
I will lift it for you.

MANNEQUIN

Once a week post, from bing. :D

HIGHLIGHTS of the week:
-Match against Under-16s :)
-Feeling Fab ;)
-"Connecting" back at St. Nicks, enjoying a simple yet delicious meal of Orange Bowl
-Studying at my favourite place of all time, but intruded by many others :(
-Managed to grab some quality music appreciation time by CatsintheCradle outside Indochine :D

This week has relatively been an enjoyable week for me. Thanks to certain delectable individuals that i've spent quality time with. You know who you are. ;) Someone mentioned before that you can feel alone despite being in a crowd, i can definitely say for sure it applies to me. That's why i prefer one-on-one outings. hehs. Just a random realisation that i do feel much more comfortable going out with anth single person rather than in a large group. Your voice is heard, that's what matters isn't it? You get to form part of the decisions made. Sometimes, just some lone times, where you form part of the minority, your wishes doesn't get adhere to and you live with it. Why? Because a human in itself forms a very small bundle. You try to please others but you end up not enjoying yourself. In times like these, i try to find reasons as to why decisions are made the way they are. The process is painful but eventually, when i find the answers, i am more at peace with myself.

Angst, perhaps this is what i'm feeling right now. Im not promoting anti-sociable feelings or "emo" thoughts, just feel like venting out what my thoughts are. Spill it out on this virtual canvas, that's what they say.

(p.s Blue's the fat colour? Nahhh, it stands for SIMPLY AWESOME-NESS :D )

i wanted to turn you on/
my favourite song/
but somebody owns you now/
i'll try to live somehow/

Sunday night, here i am again. Typing on this matt black keyboard of mine. Somehow i have a knack of staying up, burning the midnight oil on sundays. My bag is unpacked for SM (hush hush) tmr, file unchecked for lessons tmr and remedial worksheet left blank. BUT im trying. :)

Today, i have been distracted from my nerdy mood, because of someone who guessed the right one.
Today, i spent longer time thinking about other things, anything but studies, more about love and friendship and family.
Today, i witnessed how love is a funny and unexplainable thing.
Today, i realised how the more you try to supress an emotion or action, the more obvious it becomes.
Today, i saw how love can be lingering.
Today, i questioned the meaning of loving someone.

Today, i am reminded of why people say, love hurts.

Maybe that someone's me
Maybe it's meant to be lovers, strangers
Sometimes bombs fall quietly
Maybe it's just chemistry
Maybe it's hard to see that someone is the right one
I hope that someone is me
