Wimpy me

Finally I managed to finish The Five People You Meet In Heaven. I'm not doing a review here but let me just say that it's a book that's worth reading. I came across the book when I was still in secondary school and my friend told me that it was a masterpiece but it just so happened that I never really have the chance to give it a good read. Well, better late than never.

Sometimes I have the feeling that even I don't understand myself. My indecisiveness renders me helpless when I'm faced with dilemmas. I've recently started my working life and to be honest there's an awful lot to be learnt, some through the easy way and some through the hard way. Either way it's still a lesson learnt which money can't buy and I'm trying hard to accept everything that happens, regardless of it's nature. I can start complaining but then it'll probably make me sound like a crybaby, I do whine, but only when it's necessary.

There are times that one feel disconnected with his or her inner self, if there is one to begin with. I've noticed some major changes in me for some time now through all these years. Still, I would feel numb and tend to withdraw myself from the rest from time to time. When I'm not feeling down I can be extremely comfortable. Then there are times like now when I feel vulnerable thanks to the struggle that I'm having inside. It kills me in a way and I guess it shows through my expression. But then again, nobody really cares.

I do not know what or why am I writing here. I just need a way for me to vent this feeling of anguish and yes, I'm a highly volatile person. Never mind me, I just need some time to think things over and hopefully pessimism will leave me alone. *Sigh* There are a lot of great things out there, but I keep having the feeling that perhaps they are not meant for me? I hate uncertainties. My thoughts are scrambled and I think I should stop now or it wouldn't be cohesive if I keep on writing something random... ...

Life is like a dream

Life is like a dream, isn’t it? Everything comes and goes before you knew it. Most of the times, we can’t really recall what we dreamt of the previous minute when we were fast asleep and yet, we had already woke up from it. Be that as it may, there were still dreams where you’ll never forget, not while you can still breathe. Some of them consist of nightmares while the rest, or rather most of them, were sweet dreams. Nobody can stay awake for their whole life; one must take a rest and sleep. However, it is also impossible for one to fell asleep all the time either. I know it sounds contradicted but that is the fact. Dreams can’t be programmed, unlike the computer. Therefore, it is similar to life: it is at some point yours’, but not exactly yours actually. @.@” When I am having a nightmare, I would say to myself:” Oh, what a dream!? I wonder how long this will last”. It is interesting because the answer that it expected ( which is:” Not for very long, I should think”) always appears wh...

The worst year

If only If only you knew What I knew Of trust And betrayal If only you felt What I felt The agony And despair Most people would probably say that 2020 is like the worst year ever, right? This year has been plagued with one tragedy after another and we are only halfway through it! Anyway, the following is an unpopular opinion of a particular guy: 2019 is actually way worse. Now before you go after him with pitchforks and torches, please allow him to provide you with the context in which such a statement would make total sense.  "OK Google/ Hey Siri, play I'm Not The Only One by Sam Smith." On the fateful day that is 2 June 2019, he was having home-cooked noodles at her place as breakfast while brooding over his postgraduate study. You see, he had an appointment the next day with his supervisor and the lack of progress on the writing of his literature review had been weighing him down for weeks. Then it happened. "Let's break up." It must have taken his brain...

Atonement

An awfully familiar scent  picked up from a total stranger; a bewildered me, the invisible you. It's nothing but old memories, that are perpetually new. Scars in time may fade away, the ghost of you is here to stay. Away from my dreams please go away, you've painted my whole life gray. We aren't so perfect to our dismay, “说的做的再多也是无谓, 不愿放手只会让彼此更累。” yet nothing I say could make you sway. Your trust in me I foolishly betray, 无法原谅自己的愚昧, learnt my lesson through the hard way, 当初不该将你的爱浪费, guess sorrow's the price I have to pay. Nights without you 真的好黑好黑, when I'm crying alone 多想有个人陪, even today 还是忘不了你的美。 Never will I put one's heart to play, ever till my dying day. Days and nights have since then passed, you and I we broke apart, 如今你不再是囚鸟自由的飞, 我却依旧在为过往而忏悔。 On my death bed I feebly lay, still regretful for the hurtful words I say. truly wish that I could 回到过去擦干你的泪。 Atoning for my sins if I still m...
