A new blog look.
The head photo is courtesy of Zhao, an impressive shot he took during his hongkong trip. (there there, chek) Alot of credit goes to the scenery but without a good camera and an appropriate angle (and of cos no shaky hands), we wouldn't have seen it. (the human factor)
So i borrowed it for my March blog layout. Not any major changes of course, jus different photos and headings to reflect my life at its different stages or moods.
I probably won't do any colour changes cos, well, it has always been pretty grey. And no dun be mistaken! Grey is dark but it isn't anything quite negative. When my blog turns black , maybe then u can all start worrying.

Found Neverland.
I finally watched it. I'm the sort of movie-goer which lists out maybe 5 must-catch's and end up watching none.
I must say it was pretty *wrinkles nose on the left half* ... hmm.... okayyy. Its a nice show but nothing out of the norm. The theme "Just Dream" was already cliche and probably required much more than what the movie had to actually 'hit' me. But Johnny Depp is simply a coat full of charm. Its a shame he usually only does alternative movies. I would like to see him in a Jude Law role. And of cos KATIE, my dear winslut. She got fat AGAIN. (she really is just big-boned). But she is THE lady.
Never could I fall more in love with the knitted-brow look. And when she smiles, all reserved, damming this ocean of emotions, you can't help but love her. Its a wonderful cast in a lacking script. And i really liked certain parts of the show where they hop from reality to fantasy and sometimes a compound of both and you can't figure out where they are or sometimes even what happened.
I found it inspiring in another sense. In the writer sense. On how you should let free imagination and how I have forgotten about the balance between accuracy and imagination. Like i was telling zhao, some writers prefer to be as accurate as possible, bringing reality to your face : they write novels which reflect the truth, whether it is describing a rainforest or depicting a certain social behaviour, their words bring about chorus, evoke agreement and disagreement, make you laugh or cry. And some others play the imaginative pen, painting castles in the air, bringing readers to somewhere foreign and conjuring situations, people and objects you have never seen before, they thrill and excite. I am more of the former and i realised how i have neglected the magic of fantasy.
If there was never Peter Pan , we would never wish we could fly.
And sometimes i wonder if our predecessors have conjured all the possible and impossible, leaving us to retell their stories in a different voice or serve to only add moats and flags to the castles they have left us.

So that leaves :
1) Closer
2) Lemony Snickett's A Series of Unfortunate Events
3) Ray (or maybe not)

Growing old and losing your mind and making the good natured think (secretly and timidly) that you were better off dead and being hopelessly and completely ignorant about it , IS probably the worst thing in the world to happen to you when you're old.
And its called, Senile Dementia.
If it happens to me, and i dun have family, i need you, my friends, to shoot me. Hmm...But all of you will probably be bedridden, cancered, struck (getting stroke) or in the same plight as i am.
old age. i fear you.

I'm OFFICIALLY leaving for sweden!
23rd April till 8th May.
Oh and meiling just told us she won't be coming back till mid august. aww. i hope she gets to send me off! or it'll be one year before we meet again. And thinking about it, it has been almost dat long since i saw mian.

I've never felt worse before.
(ok i have but this is one way i get everyone to sit up and listen)
I am evaporating.
If you look really hard, you can see ZY melt into a puddle of liquid and then vapourising and finally turning into the most menacing and unhappy cumulozhengyi clouds.
To all my overseas friends, don't come back. Seriously. Don't. I would stick on a pair of wings and fly over if i could.
It's NEVER been SO BAD. NEVER. NEVER EVER. NEVER EVER DEVIL in my whole goddamned 20 years of (RELATIVELY) freezing cold life.
It's FUCKING hot. Yes. Once again, Mr. F found his way into my little typing fingers. Its for E-M-P-H-A-S-I-S.
I feel terrible. I really do. I feel like i'm running a temperature (of prob 42) over and over again. I'm burning up from my tummy to my insides. I can feel heat from my eyelids when i blink , my lips are revlon + maybelline blood red , cracking at the borders, my skin feels warm and smooth at the same time. My perspiration screams for release in my pores but refuses to come out (prob cos its so freaking hot out here) , my head's throbbing as if he was a heart of a nervous firsttimer on the bed, my joints ache, my will surrenders as i slowly take irreversible steps towards my final destination : being roasted alive.
Why? WHY? WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has the ozone layer decided that it was actually a snake and started to shed skin?
Has the lava beneath our tectonic plates seeped to the surface?
Has Hou Yi decided to kiss and make up with Whoever-It-Is and return all the 9 suns to the World?
I am dying. And why on earth are there people still jogging? Have they lost their MINDS? Do they feel no responsibility for their own LIVES? Any sane person would be running off to the nearest airconditioned place , or jump into a pool or killing himself if they can't do either of the above two.
Why ? Is it just singapore? Has the Maker decided to punish us for snatching ang pows from Cai Shen Ye? Or has North Korea came up with something more lethal than nuclear weapons? I need to book a ticket to Ha Er Bin or Sweden. And its ONLY FEBRUARY. IF this continues, my parents and i have to sit down and consider migration. I will not tolerate months of each year spent getting through this living hell.
I can't walk because i lost my way in the steams enveloping our little island.
I can't sleep because the wall fan in my bunk only creates hot air motion.
I can't eat because the food is bad.
I can't think because my brain expanded so much its sticking to my skull and my cells are all hardboiled now.
I can't talk because my lips hurt and dry up further if i do.
Sitting in an aircon room at home, after drinking a glass of ginseng water (with herbal tea, Ge3 Gen1 Tang1 and more ginseng water waiting for me), i managed to summon up enough strength to write this blog.
We will all die eventually. Yay.
