The stars died so that you could be here today

I'm so lost. I don't know. Some photos from my last week of July. I think. Or maybe it's not. I'm losing track of time. I can spend the whole day in Kinokuniya. Though I have this unspoken loyalty for Borders. Why? I don't know. @Bugis Junction White Chocolate pudding! I really do love it. Starbucks will for a long time remind me of the time they had their one-for-one Java Chip offer, and I was tip-toeing, trying to catch a glimpse of the barista at work. It's so interesting! Not to mention she was super nice and started chit-chatting with me :D For the hour long subway dinner in the dark, talking about anything and everything, enthralled by stories that were really in fact about mundane lives.  Strictly Pancakes is so so good. It's the only place where I don't eat like a glutton, because their portions are so filling and so sinfully rich that I can never finish one serving. @Prinsep St I've been craving Strictly Pan...

My current earworm. There's something harrowingly beautiful about the melody that the individual songs don't capture. The song has this longing quality, as if there's a distant dull ache within from it. I've been looping it so often I'm lapsing into this wistful mood permanently. It's late in the evening, she's wondering what clothes to wear. She puts on her makeup and brushes her long long hair and then she asks me do I look alright and I say yes, you look wonderful tonight; The day the music died. Summer has come and passed, the innocent can never last. Wake me up when September ends, this will be the day that I die. Like my father has to come to pass, seven years has gone so fast, wake me up when September dies, this will be the day that I die. Every move I make, every single day, everytime I pray I'll be missing you. Wake me up when September ends, this will be the day that I die. And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight, with suspiscious m...

This is what happens when you leave the Holga in bulb setting without realising it. Ghostly photos.  03/01/2012 See these trees standing tall in the sun, standing strong in the wind. Hi friends. Hi blurry friends. This happened so long ago, but I spent that day walking around town, doing nothing, feeling happy with you peeps. Taste of Thailand was yummy yummy too. Food that tastes good puts people in a good mood. Cheap good food!   31/05/2012 Take a walk down Orchard Central We walk we eat. & we stroll into Bras Basah MRT station 04/05/2012 East Coast Park!    Where the ship sailed in the ocean that stood it's ground. So many ah piaos. I'm so sorry. Bulb mode without tripod stand reduces people to look only half there. The other half wandering some other place. Haven't had such a fun cycling session in so long. Cycled slowly slowly. Everybody cycled slowly slowly with the two slow girls. Bre...

Happiness is truly a state of the mind. We choose it for ourselves. Sadness, despair, unhappiness, all these will never go away if we refuse all possibilities other than the one we have decided is the best. But we never know what is the best. Who can say that he can predict every outcome from every possibility. No one can. Let go of our preconceptions and embrace the could be-s, accept the viewpoints of others, relish all the excitement of unknown. Only then will we find the beauty in life. Life never happens as we expect it to. There's always a silver lining to the twists and turns it throws at us. We stood , s teady as the stars in the woods, s o happy-hearted ; And the warmth rang true inside these bones . A s the old pine fell we sang , j ust to bless the morning. Careless and young, free as the birds that fly with weightless souls now. - Ben Howard, Old Pine
