what the? what the?
Today I seriously thought about my raisons d’etre and on the top of the list is to love.
Because of it being the top raisons d’etre,
I decide that I will put all those nonsense behind me,
suck it up and smile at you each time i see you.
Je t’aime plus qu’hier moins que demain.
yes, go do your googling, you eager eyes.
AND OMG I GOT NEW UNDERWEAR FOR CNY LIKE FINALLY. NORMAL NON...
life is short
kiss, kiss a lot. love, love incessantly. do your math, get sad and do more math. bruise yourself, graze your ankles. get cheated. cry. laugh. praise unendlessly.
this is so boring.
i wish people still send letters, beautiful letters.
letters to show their perspective about something, everything. anything.
i promise i will write back.
i might close this space, i’m sorry but everything...
today’s headlines shout greater emphasis on social studies! rrly, Mr Ng Eng Hen what took you so long. More political studies and lesser propaganda and brainwashing such as racial harmony pls

we need much bigger pockets, i thought as i lay in bed, counting off the seven minutes that it takes a normal person to fall asleep. we need enormous pockets, pockets big enough for our families, and for our friends, and even the people who aren’t on our lists, people we’ve never met but still want to protect. We need pockets for boroughs and for cities, a pocket that could hold the...
I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. Write, for instance: “The night is full of stars, and the stars, blue, shiver in the distance.” The night wind whirls in the sky and sings. I can write the saddest poem of all tonight. I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too. On nights like this, I held her in my arms. I kissed her so many times under the infinite sky. She loved me,...

I’m gonna permanently appear offline. (cyberspace/mentally/in soul and in body)
There’s nobody who would hear my heart and understand it without challenging it.
I refuse to talk.
I restrain from hearing.
I stopped looking.
I am not here.
From this moment on, I perform self-confinement.

I was made to praise you

Not all who wanders are lost.
I think i pretty much still grapple with life and death, arrival and departure. And I’m pretty much still a coward at heart. That is why avoidance is my middle name. I want something that is lasting, something more tangible. Its only up till recently that i begin to truly believe that whatever that happens in your childhood really shapes your character and your beliefs.

Oh what folly!
What is it, the thing that made that constant reverberation.
I traced the sound and finally, I came to this chest.
I knelt beside it and slowly swept off the thin layer of dust that has settled on top of it. Tracing my fingers along the exterior carefully, the exterior of this box that contained this rhythm produced. A sudden surge of excitement ran through my veins when my palm moved along with...
dreams from my father
“I say, there’s a struggle going on!”
The frisbee players stopped.
“It’s happening an ocean away. But it’s a struggle that touches each and every one of us. Whether we know it or not. Whether we want it or not. A struggle that demands we choose sides. Not between black and white. Not between rich and poor. No— it’s a harder choice than that....

harvest in library is good today!! Finally fictional books are beginning to disappoint me and non-fictions are starting to interest me endlessly.

I am pretty much still lurking at the issue of the race policy, u noe the one where u can put both your races in ur birth cert if you are mixed?
I was just thinking right, it would be hell load of a mess since alot of the other government policy is dependant on races. Like when you apply for flats, theres a ruling that each block must contain a certain amount of each races right. Same for NS oso...

You are warm, warm of the correct degree, warm like sunshine, like a hot thermoflask.
I’m cold, eternal cold, consistent cold, like ice with fixed tough hard shape.
You came near with good intentions but you forgot the very fact that ice cannot survive in high temperature.
I melt. I changed shape. I disappear.
You saw and i knew at that exact moment tt i’ve transmitted my cold into...

The Fury Of Water
You can try and hold me back. Build your damn walls, pack sandbags along the edges and yell at the clouds and the rain and the sky to stop. But I will not relent. I will reach you. Because I am the sea. And I will continue to love you no matter what.
