I am feeling alive.
I think I'm going to take it slow..
and tell you the things that are on my mind, and I will move on with my life.
I only wanted you to know that I always had the best of intentions. But, look what you put me through, everyone around us were aware that I would have done anything and everything just to make you smile.
But it is not how it used to be. Way back when you and I were hooked on each others dreams,and found ourselves stuck in reality it was the last time you could make everything feel alright.
But as months passed, both of you and I saw more differences. I never knew why, but I was aware I realize both of us had different definition of Love.
Not having ourselves on the same page brought about the greatest struggles.
I had myself to count on when this relationship took me on an emotional roller coaster ride. I've never liked that feeling.
When I gave you and this relationship the best I could, I never thought you gave me a reason to tell you I'm leaving. I was completely obsessed with the thought that "EVERYTHING WAS GOING TO WORK OUT, EVENTUALLY."
I ran out Of patience when you and I saw love in a different angle, these were the nights I went to sleep crying my heart out. No tears but having to deal with a screaming heart. No one knows.
Everyone around us sees the "perfect us" but they weren't there to feel my pain. They never suspected I was tearing apart inside. They never knew... I was numb. So here I am, braving all rumors and judgments. I am doing myself a favor. Giving myself a chance to be happier because I have suffered enough, I need to breathe and I am moving on.
I... tried. I kept on hoping to find a way to make it real.
I.... lied... Told myself it's getting better when it never will.
It's so hard to tell you so but I'm letting go.
Now, I'm not trying To re-pride anything I've Done or any of the things I've said.
Life has a way of making a change.
I've made up my mind, and there's nothing worth crying about. I loved you from the start and had always loved you wholeheartedly. I woke up to realize I should have never protected you after the great amount of hurt this relationship caused me. I know better now, never to let myself live in your shadow. I am going to move on.
We don't need a second chance, let's move on.

Keep rollin' rollin.
alright let's face it. all the badass eleven year olds loved this at one point of time. i don't particularly hate it but i can't pretend to be cool listening to this anymore.
it was either this or the smiths but i'm trying to keep everyone's interest here so all those suicidal middle class eighteen year old girls wouldn't bite my head off. i wish morrissey died banged out by a double decker bus but then again, i rather him alive because if not, everyone's gonna get all mj and start blasting smiths song all over their blogs and indie record stores and i'm certainly not ready to have a dead man wailing about why he chooses to smile to people who he rather kick in the eye, ever.

Saturday was sucha moo.
I'd like to share with you all this blissful song: Boats and Birds by Gregory and the Hawk. It's an old piece. I remember listening to it years ago, but my friend sent me a link to a song yesterday and that was what showed up. I knew the whole lyrics to it. It's an odd feeling when one listens to music that they grew up with. I mean, my music taste has changed since way back when, but I'd run into some even now and it just sends this heartwarming feeling all throughout my body. I'm so refreshed now. Oh memories.
I woke up at 12 in the afternoon today. 12! It's definitely have been ages since I slept in! I was feeling all lazy, so I sat in my couch for a while and turned on the television. And ho! There it was. Pearl Harbor with Ben Afleck and Josh Hartnett. I've never seen it in my life and I've always wanted to. 3 hours of war put me to tears.Oh goodness, I loved that movie. And today is such a mellow day.

Mr Boy.
I want a boy who will move the hair away from my eyes, and then kiss me. who will hold my hand in line at the mall and make all the girls jealous. a boy who will sing to me at random moments. who lets me sleep on his chest. i want a guy who will tell his family and friends all about me. bring me soup or orange juice when i'm sick. i want a boy who is more goofy than romantic, but knows the right things to say at the right times. i want a boy who will call me 3 times a day if he went away. a boy who will apologize for calling too much, and no matter how many times i tell him its okay, he'd still do it. a boy who will let me gossip to him and just smile and agree with everything i say. a boy who will throw stuffed animals at me when i acted dumb and then jump on me and kiss me a million times. who will bet kisses on who could beat who on at game. who makes fun of me just to make me laugh. a boy who will surprise me with 25 cent ring and we could have contest of how far we can spit our gum. who will take me to the park, put his hands around my waist and give me big bear hugs all the time. a boy who will kiss my neck, just to have a reason to tell me how much he loves my new perfume. i want a boy who, at night, who will dance in his pajamas with me. a boy who will take pictures in photo booths with me, someone who will never turn down a trip to the lake and who will play tag on the beach with me. a boy who could sit with me on the kitchen floor and eat sandwiches. who will kiss me in the pouring rain. i want a boy who would try to teach me how to play the guitar, even if we just end up laughing at each other. i want a boy who will run his fingers through my hair, share his lollipops with me, and get along with all of my friends. someone who would never be afraid to say i love you in front of his friends and someone who would argue with me about silly things just to make up.someone who will kiss me at midnight on new years and who will make funny faces at me when i'm on the phone. i want a boy who will count stars with me and be friends with my family. i want a boy who will stay home with me on a friday night just to help me make dinner and watch movies together under the same blanket. someone who will squirt water guns at me in the house after i've got him soaked. i want a boy who looks me the eye and tell me something serious, that was also funny and make me promise not to laugh. a boy who could make me laugh like no one else can. i want a boy who will hold me closer than normal when i'm sick, and would play with my hair. but mostly i want a boy who is my best friend and will always be there for me.
italics: what I wish
bold: what I got :)
Where the moon lights and stars shine.
On quiet nights like this, I sit in my room and pile myself up with schoolwork. I had my playlist on shuffle. Reason being, I love expecting the unexpected. I love how surprises sweep me off my feet, I love how truth/lies catches me off guard. I've never wanted to live a life that has been predicted. I'd rather walk the different paths in life where you and I meet at intersections and junctions. I wonder, I really do wonder... How is it that you and I were given a chance to meet?
Now, it creeps me out way down to my spine that every song playing on "shuffle" mode conveys my emotions. Is it my feelings or.... just the lyrics.
I wonder, as the composer came up with the lyrics, was he feeling the same way I am feeling? Had he went through the same falls in life I went through?
Doesn't this conclude that you, me, and human kind do ride on the same mood of emotions? What makes me, me? What makes you, you. They are them, we are we. But who's to say we're the same?
Lately, I've been taking a wild ride on emotions. Perhaps, let me breakdown? And it could all be the same afterall.
I a p o l o g i s e i f t h i s b l o g p o s t a p p e a r s d i s t o r t e d.
Sympathize with me, my train of thoughts just won't peice together.

Denial Ruins your life.
I felt my chest aerate with the oncoming surge of my surroundings - trees, air, clouds, faces, sand, textures; it occupies me inside and instead of feeling like something about me is going to burst, here comes a torrent of content, and it embraces me, with such consistency. So I float through it and thought to myself, this is what it must feel like to be truely happy. But of course, such moments come rare, and like all other things in life, it passes and try as hard, you can never outstay its welcome.
If you'd like to know, it really breaks my heart every single time when I see people my age, a little older or worse, younger, doing crazy amazing things and being absolutely brilliant. It hurts me so much I'm almost always on the verge of manic depression, I'm about to cry, and really, all I want to do is be as wonderful, as motivated and as god-damn talented like they are. But my environment is hardly ever remotely motivating, the people around me in school are good but in areas I hold little to no interest in, which is contradictory and sad, really, because I guess everyone is right, I don't belong, I won't ever, even if I tried- in fact, I am god-damn sure I'm in the wrong school altogether. And I've told myself from time to time to never, ever, freaking admit to this but really, denial can only work for so long for if I was being perfectly honest with myself, I am without a trace of doubt, in the wrong country and yes, I am aware of how pathetic this sounds. I need to stop thinking and simplify my state of mind, retract all that has been exposed back to where it belongs and realise that where I am is where I need to be at this moment, really.

I love wishing I was a kid.
"You know how when you were a little kid and you believed in fairy tales, that fantasy of what your life would be, white dress, prince charming who would carry you away to a castle on a hill. You would lie in bed at night and close your eyes and you had complete and utter faith. Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, Prince Charming, they were so close you could taste them, but eventually you grow up, one day you open your eyes and the fairy tale disappears. Most people turn to the things and people they can trust. But the thing is its hard to let go of that fairy tale entirely cause almost everyone has that smallest bit of hope, of faith, that one day they will open their eyes and it will come true."

Hi, it's nice meeting all of you.
Once upon a time I dreamt of living a life that would once get repeated to a much greater audience, a story of morals for people to learn from. I used to care about what others thought of me, but now I realise that my only real critic is myself and to make real things happen, and for me to become someone, I must inspire myself. Granted, I can spend so much time deciding on something and still not knowing whether it was ever the right choice in the first place, I am probably the most indecsisive person you could ever meet, I guess its all just an attemt to amuse myself. I guess I find reality quite boring, things always seem so much better in my head, I like to escape from the on-going fight they call life. I guess my imagination is the best place to ever be, the place I love to be, the place where I can escape from the on going stuggle with rules and boundaries to a place where nothing is what it seems and everything is just how i make it. A good book, a sunset, quiet nights in,the feminine times and holding hands is how I get through my life, one day it will all make sense and click into place, I would just rather this happen sooner rather then later. "True friendship isn't about being inseperable, its about being seperated and nothing changing"
Help me to piece up the pieces in my life and to have the happy ending I have always dreamed of.
