this is just a title. ignore it.
hello everyone. i'm posting again! mainly so that u guys won't see my face each time u visit the class blog... haha. anyway now my blue teddy's featured on two class blogs! yay! u should see the pink one that comes with him ;)
hmm yet another surreal valentine's day for me. like lw said i've got a lot of platonic relationships blah blah blah which is fine for me (i guess. haha.) means i get more goodies lol. to all who have received my ultra cute angels, please take good care of them. they are quite fragile. and i've spent a lot of time on them T_T. so yah they contain my care and concern and what not. (if they *do* break, however, come to me and i'll give you a refund. really.)
just realised this is the last cross country in school i'll ever have. or this was the last i'd ever had. hmm pretty sad, huh? next would be the last CNY in school i'll ever have followed by the last of many other things. shouldn't take them for granted, i guess. haha we must have been a curious sight today. the group of us sitting around singing oldies with cheng yi strumming the guitar. we've got a weird hippie vibe haha. thank u juniors for joining us in the weirdness... a few more ppl really makes the difference sometimes. wish i had brought a camera today... the weather was fine and there were ppl sitting on the slopes and enjoying the wind and scenery. best time i'd ever spent in macritchie.
cny's coming and my cca's performing again! haha this is the last time u'll ever see a wushu performance by my batch so make sure u don't blink... not accustomed to wearing sleeveless nanquan fuzhuang. for some reason all the girls keep on staring at me. sure attention's nice but it gets on my nerves too haha. doesn't help that i'm the *only* dude wearing sleeveless... :S
well on the whole things seem to be looking slightly up for me... maybe cos i'm starting to appreciate company, and i'm finally finding a stable equilibrium in what i do. i'm a libran so equilibrium is very important :P will end my post with this song by Bright Eyes that i particularly like. hope u'd like the lyrics too.
Bright Eyes- Bowl of Oranges
The rain had started tapping
On the window near my bed
There was a loophole in my dreaming
So I got out of it
And to my surprise my eyes were wide
And already open
Just my nightstand and my dresser
Where those nightmares had just been
So I dressed myself and left then
Out into the gray streets
But everything seemed different
Completely new to me
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings
Even my own body
And each person I encountered
I couldn't wait to meet
And I came upon a doctor
Who appeared in quite poor health
I said, "There's nothing I can do for you
You can't do for yourself"
He said, "Oh, yes you can, just hold my hand
I think that that would help"
So I sat with him a while
And I asked him how he felt
He said, "I think I'm cured
No, in fact I'm sure of it
Thank you stranger
For your theraputic smile"
So that's how I learned the lesson
That everyone's alone
And your eyes must do some raining
If you're ever gonna grow
When crying don't help, you can't compose yourself
It's best to compose a poem
An honest verse of longing
Or a simple song of hope
That's why I'm singing, baby, don't worry
Because now I've got your back
And every time you feel like crying
I'm gonna try to make you laugh
And if I can't, if it just hurts too bad
Then we'll wait for it to pass
And I will keep you company
Through those days so long and black
We'll keep working on the problem
We know we'll never solve
Of love's uneven remainders
Our lives are fractions of a whole
But if the world could remain within a frame
Like a painting on a wall
Then I think we'd see the beauty then
And stand staring in awe
At our still lives posed
Like a bowl of oranges
Like a story told
By the fault lines and the soil
The rain had started tapping
On the window near my bed
There was a loophole in my dreaming
So I got out of it
And to my surprise my eyes were wide
And already open
Just my nightstand and my dresser
Where those nightmares had just been
So I dressed myself and left then
Out into the gray streets
But everything seemed different
Completely new to me
The sky, the trees, houses, buildings
Even my own body
And each person I encountered
I couldn't wait to meet
