Riding Through it All ...

The thing about life is one moment you are so hopeful for one thing, and the next you witness your dreams being shattered to pieces right before your eyes. And then before you can properly grieve over the failure, another door of opportunity pops up with its welcoming arms. And from there, you start scrapping the ashes of hope off the earth surface and trying to glue them together to make one complete hope again.  The moral of the story is no matter how likely something seems, it can come crumbling down with one unexpected blow. Likewise, no matter how impossible something appears to be sometimes, you have to cling onto hope and faith and believe that bubble gums can rain from the sky. We are supposed to be ready, and as cliche as it may sound, hope for the best and prepare for the worst. Just like Ted once said, "Sometimes things have to break apart for better things to happen." I myself have been there and done that. I have been hopeless about things that are just ...

Once upon a time :)

Well, if you have read my blog long enough, you probably have come across an article about my belief in Fenghui. Yes, that's right--Fengshui! Judge me all you like, but I have been there and done that--I used to be the so-called "man for himself" believing in hard work and commitment and judging people who embrace superstition and Fengshui as people with excuses. Now however, I have let Fengshui become part of my "life manual". I don't necessarily put my future solely in the hands of Fengshui. Of course hard work and committment play a larger role. But I now believe that there is a higher power, power beyond anything human, power that affects--though not necessarily controls--life. Anyways, to cut a long story short, the Fengshui book has said that March is a month of misfortune and April is when everything falls into place and my life hits a jackpot. It's the 31st of March, and though I am just about 9 hours away from the dawn of April, I already f...

Well, I have felt that a lot are bottled up inside me, and finding a means to let it out has never been more difficult. I remember resorting to Facebook as a platform where I can let thoughts wander off. But now? Nope. I just can't do that anymore! The truth is the moment my status gets a little personal and "deep", people start coming up with all sorts of comments of how "drama-queen-like" I am. Plus, I don't think stripping yourself off the guard and therefore leaving yourself naked with vulnerability does me any good anymore. At least i've got the Instagram, though! I do write about my thoughts and feelings once in a while, yes, but given how limited in number of words each text allows, it has never been comfortable either! Talking everything out? Nahhhhhhhhh ... First, i don't think I have someone who is truly and genuinely interested. Second, I fear attachment! The last time I tried to detach from my close friends emotionally, it was close to a...

They say a dream is a wish that your heart makes. Is that true? I was giving you a piggyback ride, and even if it was in my dream, my heart was pounding with joy as you were clinging onto my back so tightly. I couldn't remember where we were going, or why because I guess it didn't matter. My head only chose to remember the ride, the laughter, and the intimacy we shared, and nothing else. When I woke up with a start, I couldn't help but beam widely the whole time. It felt silly to have dreamed of such a thing, but at the same time, wasn't it magical to actually get to experience something before you even have a chance to in real life?  :)

Some say I am patient; others see me as the opposite. I guess it is hard to say I am which one. It really depends on the context we are talking about. Well, if--let's say--i were to wait for a text reply from someone, i would say "impatient" is underrated. In the worst scenario, I can lose my temper and you can virtually see smoke coming out of my ears. Admittedly, I am one of those people who keeps my phone with me almost all the time except, of course, for that short period of time in the bathroom. So it takes me seconds to run my fingers on the screen and touch the "Send" button unless the reply is a serious business that requires serious time to give a thorough thought to. To some people, especially ladies, they take forever to reply when you ask them on a movie outing. And I am not talking about movie dates! Because I believe it is understandable if they take a little longer to decide whether they should or should not go with me on a movie date for fear o...

Here I am again ... WOOT WOOT ... I don't know about others but for me, I usually blog when I am sad lol, and the reason why I haven't blogged for a while is pretty much obvious--I just haven't been sad enough lol, which apparently is a good thing. Then I am sure you are probably thinking, "Ahhhh, now you must be sad, or you wouldn't be here". WROOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNG I have been--literally--in this room for 6 hours straight. SIX FREAKINGGGGGG HOURSSSSSSSS. You can imagine how bored to death I am of the whole environment. Thanks to my mobile hotspot, I am able to get access to the internet lol. Anyways, just a quick update. I got the first-ever sunglasses lol. Well, you might go, " What's the big deal?" Let me tell you--it is a huge deal! You see, for someone like me, someone short-sighted, wearing sunglasses instead of those specs is a dream. And finally my dream has come true! Now every time I drive, I wish there would be more sun l...
