–39: “the year you were born marks only your entry into the world. other years where you prove your worth, they are the ones worth celebrating.”
went back to ACJC on Monday to collect my School Graduation Certificate (SGC) after my freshman medical check-up at NUS. my first reaction wasn’t one of happiness or relief, but rather… “two years of intensive torture-like study for a maroon folio with gold embossing. na beh.” true story. “The year you were born marks only…
–50: “one of the advantages of being disorganized is that one is always having surprising discoveries.”
(shot along Mariam Way on thursday evening) (as I’m typing this I’m cringing/grimacing at the television while watching the season finale of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. on FOX because it’s SO PAINFUL TO WATCH and I’m crying internally) so, I’m left with fifty days before school actually starts; the next chapter of my short-lived life….
–55: “besides, who ever asked you what you wanted in this world, girl? the answer to that question, reader, as you well know, was absolutely no one.”
(image credits to Amid Night Suns on Blogger) I must admit, I’m not a perfect person robot capable of completely compartmentalising my feelings— this post stems from annoyance and anger at a certain relative over an argument on Saturday. said feelings of annoyance/anger led me to reflect on the happenings of the past few weeks…
–65: “wheresoever you go, go with all your heart.”
here’s a quick shot I snapped on my way to Yishun earlier on after alumni choir rehearsal. so, An Evening With Friends 2014 (ACJC College and Alumni Choir’s annual concert) begins tomorrow and I have been nothing short of excited for the whole five months in which I’ve been rehearsing with the alumni choir.
–91: “life is a journey of realization, which often ends in that place where dreams never begin.”
(image credits to Finance Money Live) sudden realisation of the day (and perhaps week/month): we are often convinced that ‘there is someone out there waiting for us’ and that everyone certainly has a ‘special someone’ for them (see: Plato’s The Symposium: Aristophanes’ dialogue). we apparently spend all our lives searching for their ‘other half’ so…
–92: “blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed.”
(image credits to citizen.tv) there might be some curiosity as to why I placed a ‘–92’ before the title of the post, which is almost always a quote. it’s something I will explain in a while so please bear with my banal ramblings. everything will make sense in the end. I was thinking about the…
“…I see myself at crossroads in my life, mapless, lacking bits of knowledge – then, the moon breaks through, lights up the path before me…”
(image credits to DC Infinite) hello there, my meagre space of the web, tucked away in the little corner behind all the issues that seem to ‘really matter’ these days (and by ‘issues’ I mean the who’s-who of what’s-that-world and the like). I seem to have neglected you throughout the month of April, and I…
“each rejection brings us closer to acceptance.”
(image credits to Tips of Divorce) there’s nothing of substance I can talk about these days, seeing as I’ve been down in the dumps, but here are some updates:
“it’s much easier to not know things sometimes. things change and friends leave. and life doesn’t stop for anybody.”
(image credits to The Modern Nomad) so, I was on the bus on my way to work today when a particular song came up on shuffle, and it managed to evoke a multitude of feelings within my dark and dreary soul… (just kidding about the dark and dreary part)
