Capo on 3
G C D
Try to listen to me now x3
Your sandals sink in the ground
I see your hearts not where it used to be
I know that you'll be alright
Just listen to me now
(Because)They might never face the truth
You don't have to win this war
The truth is freedom
You can be who you used to be
Are you strong enough
Its not about when but who
You choose to put up front
Do you know who you are
Incomplete, but after writing it I realised it was for Chingmay, a long time ago. If I could go back in time to give this to you I would!Labels: Stronger

Hooee its raining!
Glassneedles
The rain, oh how lovely
A respite from the heat
A vengeful comeback from its much relished hiatus
Buildings stand the same, rooted in the ground with chalky, tardy legs
The rain, lovely as it is
Everything is frozen in
We are a city in a block of ice
I see monoliths standing in the distance, spying
Squared glowing eyes, the sky turns purple
How I hate that blinding combination
Of light and darkness
Blue and purple
None of the exhilarating colours of sunset
No, none of the filtered light you learnt about in school
Perhaps I am to be outdone
Perhaps this is to outdo
But they have been there all along
Just the blinding rain that makes it
clear as day,
They were watching you.

My mother is using an iron that sounds like a jet taking off.
A steam iron that is.
I was speaking to Wee Sian in church today, and we discovered that academia really kills artistic notion.
If you are a doodler, you will notice that as the exams draw near, you stop having ideas for doodles/ doodle less frequently.
Creative expression declines?Perhaps this is due to a person becoming more accustomed to using the left side of a brain more during the examination period to process logical and mathematical problems. They say the brain is like a muscle right?
So the right side of the brain atrophies?
I really have no idea.
And how scientifically sound this opinion is, I have no idea as well.
Did you know bear kind attacked a supermarket in Japan?
They had to put bullets in it.
I thought they would've used tranquilizer darts you know?
Its such a waste of life, the poor thing was probably scared out of its wits.
The attack was definitely not premeditated, come on, its a bear!
I wish animals went to heaven.

Because you know no controversial event is complete without....Conspiracy Theories!
Why Kanye West did what he did at the VMAs
Aliens
We all know this one, Aliens did it.
Aliens pretending to be Kanye did it
Aliens planted a mind controlling device in him, just because You Belong With Me on the radio waves in space were killing them.
We're all just a dream and none of this really happened.
Perhaps someday a doppelganger Kanye from a parallel universe will wake you up, saying, "Yo I'm really happy for you that you're just living an illusion, Ima let you finish but I had one of the best illusions of all time!"
To Gain Attention from the Media
Maybe he just likes the attention.
He was planted by the producers to up Taylor's profile
You know, because the music industry is that hard up
He had a random moment
Because you know, it has to be the best of all time
"Yo I see you're having an embarrassing moment and I feel for you, and Ima let you finish but I made the the best boo boo on stage of all time!"
This is going to stick to him forever.
Choose your moments wisely, you'll be glad you didn't make a "Kanye"
On the other hand, why not try it at the next social event you're attending?
Or it'll be a totally cool halloween costume to try next October!

Its blogger's birthday?
Because I had no idea!
And thank goodness, the blogger tool bar is gazing up at me in such a perfect, lovely manner I feel like giggling.
TGIF TGIF TGIF
This week's Friday is the epitome of TGIF
Honestly, this week of preliminary exams has been killer.
I felt like a rat hanging on to a thread of sanity over a sea of sharks made of books.
And also the late nights and double paper days.
Eliada is getting so annoyed with people exclaiming "Wah, you very good ah! No need to come school"
Hahaha its a side effect, note to self: stop doing that as well.
I don't feel like I'm doing well at all.
I'm not going to excel for this time round's SS/Hist, no matter what you tell me.
I took the paper, I know I messed it up okay?
But ah well, its not like I'm annoyed over that, so don't worry if you've very kindheartedly assured me about my humanities grade.
I have too much awesome to live out.
If awesome was a battery bar, it would be like this :
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Okay, so that didn't turn out like the one in my mind's eye.
Lets try black and white instead:
I IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
I've used this
much
Argh I give up.
So much for illustrations.
I want an illustrious career!
I want to be naturally good at my job, so I feel like I'm working hard but enjoying it at the same time because I don't have to work so hard that I feel pain.
You know?
Mmrpgh, I'm in a sorta floppy mood. Way to start a weekend huh.
Well, exams start again next week, thank God its only Biology and Additional Math left.
One more thing. I think pride and exhibitionism is the main thing that makes us unlovely.
Seriously. We get so caught up in showing everybody: Look what I did! Look what I know! Let me show you how you are wrong so I can show you how much more I know! Tell me I'm intelligent and wonderful and lovely!
And then we don't care about the other person because we are just seeking edification.
It all boils down to our need to be recognised doesn't it?
Its so ugly.
I bet we all look like those clubbers in the silent disco- Dancing like hell to show off, but really, no ones watching because they're all trying too hard to get you to look at them too.

There was once a girl who was allayed
By the computer
For a long long time
No one had to tell her
She knew bad things would come, it was a sign.
"Does this make sense?" She would murmur to herself,
piecing together, finding none that would fit
It could be bad on her health
Somehow she couldn't make the right things meet
But the world!
Oh the outside
Was a far worse place then you'd dare abide
The WORLD- Oh the horrors
But what really scared her
was what she'll find inside
If she let the world
Get
In
This relentless escapism
Someone intervene?
She wouldn't try to ask
She just wouldn't be seen.
What she didn't see
Was the many that held open
Its not that she was blind
She didn't want to try
Labels: getting back
Its either I get a laptop or some kind of interface to blog from, or I'm going to write my blogposts on paper and then transfer them here.
I don't like not blogging, its like I can't think properly anymore, what with the excessive math and science and all other left brained thinking styles.
If I alter myself to survive, then who do I become?
Of course you can give me all that crap about students who undergo a HOLISTIC education, and it is possible for students to do well in more than one discipline.
OKAY.
I
GET
IT.
Yeah so, it scares me.
It really really does, okay, so get off my case.
The world is going to judge you anyhow
or it could be that I'm being my own worst critic again now see why would anyone want to read what I'm typing right now?
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh goodness now this is becoming an outlet
STOP.
Maybe I'll have more constructive things to say next time, and a less jaded perspective.
I need to start on my MATH.

After taking the English paper, I realise how much I really like writing. So there.
I was just wondering while washing forks and spoons earlier, if you say "I have done this all by myself"
Would that be full of pride in your self-achievements, or would it carry a tinge of sadness because it was lonely?
Similarly, if you announce, "It was a group effort and we did well!"
Would you ever wonder how much better it could be if you have achieved it all by yourself?
I guess theres never satisfying people.
How do we live on?
Come on, get sucked into the little (but growing!) singularity that you've created in your heart. Maybe that is what it takes to stop this mess eh?

Okay haven't been blogging
Still don't feel like blogging
But this really calls for a blog entry

MCFLY
WAS
ON
TV
a celebrity short for Singapore Idol
Followed by one of their songs (I was too excited to register which)
Can't believe the day is finally here, they made it onto our television screens!
Soon they'll be coming for a concert, yes?
Next year please, I would die if they came and I couldn't go because of the o'lvls
TIME TO SAVE MONEY!!
