Wanderlust

The man in seat 61 tells you about travelling by train. Besides a little mention on the wonder of land/sea travelling, he doesn’t have to do much to intriuge. Most of us like to travel untreaded paths, myself included. With the low fares, and charming quaintness that trains could offer, this is really tantilizing. I’ve always had the impression that trains took too long and brought you distances too short, but the man in seat 61 lets us know otherwise.

He offers directions for a route, where you can travel by ferry/bus/train (mainly) from London to Singapore. In 4 weeks. Imagine the things you’ll see on the way! The food you’ll eat, the places you’ll stay. Sounds like a tempting experience to me.

Fuzzy Fat Fuck

This pic is so priceless ha…

So I did get my half-assed half-day, and met Angela, Elaine, and a little of Kat. And cut my fringe. I met the best hairstylist I’ve ever met! (Sentence structure, consider restructuring. ((aha))).

Binge

Ryan on his shiny new ride.

Half-assed seems to pretty much describe how I feel now.

I so did not want to come to work today. And coming only made me feel like I was right.

-mundane banter, complaints, work stress, bla-

So I’m going on half-day (precious one at that), and going for a hair-cut. And some shopping. And going back to do my laundry. And clean my room. I think that’s enough of goodiness for today. I’m leaving.. as soon as I can get this email out…

I will burn you down

-throws little litted match-

and

Or “THUURR BAH BOOOM!” as James would say. James and Liang are really good to quote. You know, CHIJ or some girl school had their own ’school-language’ back in my days? We would be in the bathroom during some basketball match, and we would hear them yattering in CHIJese. Liang and James should sit down and come up with something like that! They already have many many nouns and adjectives and pronouns that are self-invented, plus their own brand of humour. They liked this clip they made of themselves saying “We Love Jihad!!!!!!” so much, I didn’t understand.

Major digress. The match thing was about me wanting to burn down my desk at work and not have to deal with all the filing I had left for other days when I was bogged down with other work.

BURN, confi files, applications, work, BURN!

Life, and dreams

“People get old. And things change, and situations change. I want this moment right now, this day. My feelings for you, the way you look right now, the way I look at you and my feelings for you. I just want this to last forever you know. ”

“And it will. No matter what we’ve always had this and had each other. and nothing can ever change that. But, i just want you to know, you’ll always have someone here for you. Always. I’m never gonna leave you. I’m never gonna leave you. I love you.”

That’s the dialouge from the Greenday song.

It lines reality up next to dreams. How come we can’t keep beautiful things beautiful? Nothing gold stays. You gotta chase it. Maybe that’s what nirvana would be like, to reach a certain climax and be able to stay there, and float in the moments of utter happiness and bliss. But that would never happen in our lives, would it. We have to fight for everything. Maybe fight makes it seem too glorified. We have to put in effort to keep our lives neat and tidy, so that happiness can find a place to put itself.

I say, the best we can do with golden moments is to savour it. My method is to by remembering. The smell of the moment, the visuals, the little tight warm hug I feel in my heart. And then I move on, and hope that this memory will help bring more golden moments to come. And when I’m bored or unhappy, I try to take them and place them on my lap in my cuddly couch in my head, and smile at them. Sort of keeps you going, making the effort.

I know it sounds like I’m a dreamer. I used to think so, because dreaming never got me anywhere. But today, I know that my golden heart hugs are not going to stop. Even when things get tough, I know I have someone who is stronger than me, standing by me.

This is for you, bei. I wish you all the happiness. With me. Muahaha..
