(stick to your conclusion, girl.)

the hardest part is leaving

the things deborah blogged about is so alike what i'm thinking,
but so different at the same time.
i guess that's why we connect;
why we spend most of the time in our heads;
peter and alice this sat yeah?

when photographs don't mean anything

math common test tmr D:
i know like how to do but always kena careless mistakes ._.
shall go practice and mug and stuff.

2hrs of doing assignment + talking crap with kellie was nice :D
and mcs icecream makes us high (!)
lol.
i kinda needed that ranting session to someone who understands.
promise me we'll go watch a movie next thursday?
haven't had a proper movie fix since jan, i guess.
and i miss retail therapy with 2c's loves(:

and i really don't want to care about you and _____ alr.
seriously. just forget her/him.
(yes, it applies to more than one person that I know -.-)
it's just plain irritating when you know it's over but you keep hanging on.
i wish i could break that string for you, but you're the one holding the scissors.
you'ld want a clean break.
seriously.

i like long journeys on public transport.
during peak hours, you see the true side of many people:
the people who are willing to give up their seat for others (even if it means a long standing time),
people who stare at you and expect you to give up their seat,
people who don't give up their seat no matter what,
and people who want to give up but are tied down for some reason.
(you just don't see it until you're doing it)

i realise that was kinda random.
and i realise people assume too much.
and 80% of those assumptions are wrong -.-

i feel like going to Bethel hall now.
it's the place where I sense God's presence most.
the only place where crying doesn't seem like such a "weak" thing to do.
too bad it's locked up and i can only go to cana hall.
'cept that being there alone is kinda freaky ._.
(yeah. i'm scared of being alone, not the dark T.T)

i think i've kinda lost the point of this post.

piggy in the middle

i hate being in the middle of things that don't actually concern me.
it just makes me a reason for everything that's quarrelled about.
and it makes everything that I didn't care about more important.
so that I acutally care about it.
(when I'm caring too much about stuff alr)

and i'm thinking that it isn't me.
but i'm too far gone to not care.

i hate this feeling.
and i miss church already.

math/meth

(alpha+beta) = -b/a
(alphabeta)=c/a
(-b +- sqr-rt b^2-4ac) / 2a = quadratic formula
b^2 - 4ac = discriminant (D)
D>0 = 2 real & distinct roots
D=0 = 2 real & equal roots
(CANT POSTE D SMALLER THAN ZERO = NO REAL ROOTS -.-)
a(x-h)^2-k = completed square form, where (h, k) is t.p.

i sucessfully crashed my laptop,

have to redownload everything,

it's a chance to reorder stuff, though.

funny how that sounds like what i'm doing to my heart.

life ain't a fairytale

i can't pinpoint the exact thought that's making me feel this way.
it's like a whole chunk of memories adding up together.
(that's why it's so hard to break down)

church today.
i can say i felt God touching my heart;
healing it, somehow.

"The Lord is close to the broken-hearted" Psalms 34:18
funny how ShunBin mentioned that during BS today.
i've been praying and praying for the people I love,
the sick, the tired, the disillusional, the broken-hearted.
i could say i didn't see God appearing; helping; doing something.
but I felt Him.
slowly, but surely,
there was less and less on my heart, in my mind.

more of God and less of humanity.
that's what I need now.

this is Alice in Wonderland, following the White Rabbit,
only to fall into a seemingly never-ending tunnel.
this is Wendy Darling, back from Never-land,
getting over Peter Pan and going back to her life.

Cos you were romeo, I was a scarlet letter

i epic missed earth hour -.-
too much on my mind.

on the bright side, there's church tmr.
(or actually, later today.)
i need to talk to God in church.
it feels different, in a way.
more close and private.

and i need to get the heavy feeling off my chest.
a bit or crying + a friend to confide + a dose of cg + a prayer to God
that's what I need.

oh, and seriously people,
get away from the stereotype that a person must like somebody to exist -.-
it doesn't have to be that way.

i'm tired.
bye.

it's a test of faith, of friends and love

i'm losing faith,
in myself and in God.

i'm getting jealous over friends,
for no apparent reason.

i'm wishing for a little love.
&it hurts as much as every heart in my notebook.

i'm walking down memories,
reminiscising.

i'm shooting down pictures,
that never meant anything.

i'm looking at my camera,
wondering at how life seems so perfect, yet is imperfect all at the same time.

i'm noticing life,
like life notices me.


written on
2:54 PM

romeo save me, i've been feeling so alone

it's easier to believe the lie than to not believe the truth.
it's simpler to give up now than to wait till you're too far gone.
it's better to have loved and lost. (than to never love at all)

it seems like everyone is having the same problems.

life just doesn't make sense anymore.
i have friends who turn to me for help.
but i don't find anyone that i can turn to.
i listen to them, and their problems become mine, too;
but who can i talk to?
i socialize, but there's no connection between me and others.

i feel like i'm carrying too much, but who can i get help from?

God.
everyone says that. I say that.
but I keep praying and waiting,
but nothing happens. He doesn't show.
i confide to Him, but i need a human to talk to,
someone who understands;
someone who can talk to me when I need;
someone I can fall back into.

and I haven't found that someone... yet.

the 90/10 principle.
90% of life is dependant on how I react.
but how should I react?
I don't even know how I should feel now.
it's not love. that's all i'm sure of.
i'm clinging on to something that's foreign to me.
something that keeps me sane now.
something that I know isn't good in the long run.

but is short term bliss worth the long term sacrifice?

it's more like an emotional whirlpool than a roller coaster of life.
it's like all the feelings mixed together, but in the center it's empty.
if the core is empty, is the show of emotions outside just a facade?
is life, afterall, just one big act?

is the lie better than the truth, does it hurt less? (when you know that it's just a lie)
is it truly easier to give up now? (and later find out that you gave up all your chances)
is it really better to have loved (and lost) than to be loved?

i'm starting to see less of the lie and more of the truth.
it doesn't feel good. that's for sure.
it's like tearing apart your whole world and constructing a new one,
because the old one was built on lies.

"hello, I'm your old best friend, your tailor and the person you'd share late night messages with. Until you started to fall asleep and until I started letting you slip between my fingers. I want to love somebody. I might, I might not.

Like you might die in a plane accident, get knocked down by a car, jump out a window or get run over by a train tomorrow or the next day.

Or I might not.

I think I'm starting to see where "it's better to be loved than to love" fits in. But I want to love someone. I won't, I will. I really don't know anymore. I was convinced I would. Now, I don't think so anymore. Because and I'm selfish and if I don't love, you don't get to love either, my future lover or none. I'm sorry if you aren't satisfied with that answer.

Sometimes, I wonder what it's like to be loved.

Sometimes, I wonder what it's like to love.
"

i quote Deborah, because I couldn't put it into words better.


&is this all in my head?
i don't know what to think.

in case you were wondering:

you'll be the prince & i'll be the princess

i constantly need to remind myself to stop dreaming.
cos life ain't a fairytale, and wishes just don't get fufilled.

my heart ain't answering to my head.
i'm revelling in memories of the past,
pondering over the obstacles i've faced,
wondering whether i should have chosen the other way.

that's just life, ain't it?
a big round-about-
you always wind back up at the start no matter how far you go.

up against the wall

dear girl,
get your head in the game.
stop hanging in the clouds.
stop dreaming.
your heart's getting as screwed as your head.

so breathe in now,
and breathe it out.
the forecast, a carcrash.
it's looking like another breakdown;
rebound.
this could be my last goodbye
you crossed your heart i hoped to die

let's spend tonight on top of the world

i find my myself getting lost in your eyes.
when our eyes lock,
my heart seems to run at an accelerated rate.
that's when I find myself falling way too deep.
that's when i know I have to stop and get out,
but it's too late.
that's why i don't dare to look at you.

i have no idea why I even try to make my posts sound chim on blogger.
it just doesn't feel natural anymore.
livejournal was much more private.

i realised this isn't as much about life as it is about pride.
we just want to be better than the rest.
friends don't matter.
family don't matter.
all we want is to win and get the glory.

life shouldn't be this way.

invisible children

we complain about how bad life is;
how we're the most unlucky, unfairly treated people;
rant about superficial stuff.

but we never really look at the rest of the world:
the orphaned, abandoned and kidnapped.
the poor, the forced, the killed.
the invisible children and others alike.
