writing on a thin stack of hilroy lined paper with a blue papermate pen

pulling up all my curtains and blinds to get as much sunlight into my room as possible

the smell of crabtree & evelyn's india hicks island living diffuser when i walk into my room

soft breeze of cool wind on a summers night

breathing in fresh air while listening to olivia ong's you and me..

things i want to do in my life

1. know how to dance salsa and be comfortable doing it in front of ppl
2. always have 'me' time.. singing, dancing, doing a mask etc..

emotions

emotions

are like the gentle winds that softly sweep your hair across your face
swiftly skipping along your skin
blinding your sight
yet lifting your spirits at times.

they come and go as they like
when you open your arms to it
its the power of a thousand leagues momentarily giving their blessing
when you reach up to feel it
it reminds you of the delicate flutter of a beautiful butterfly's wings
but you cannot close your grasp around it for fear of creasing its colors
you can only experience its momentary presence
so unexpected but refreshing

emotions fly away
leaving you with only the aftermath of your feelings
and leaving you.. with the man who will reach up to brush the hair out of your eyes..

the present

today is the first day of the rest of your life..
ask yourself, would i fall in love with myself if i met myself on the streets?
if you cannot answer yes immediately, realize that you have the power to make yourself that person you admire and that change can start now...
don't fall for peer pressure or others' expectations; realize that you will never be them but they will also never be you
there will always be someone who is greater than you at any one thing, but realize you are greater than that person at another thing
learn to live your own life..
learn to see yourself..
learn to understand yourself..
learn to love yourself; realize that everyone leads a different life and and you should not be ashamed to chase after your own dreams
lady gaga said "Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you're wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn't love you anymore."
Let me tell you,
its ok to have a dream that involves a man
its ok to believe in happily ever after
and don't worry about not getting your happy ending because true love never ends...

memory

to think
is to forget

to remember everything
is to be unable to distinguish between the important and the irrelevant..

to age
is to let go of all the mistakes you've made

to love
is to believe that someone else can also believe in you


so


be thankful you only remember enough to question

be thankful that you've grown to know better

don't be cautious to love

don't ask too many questions

just believe in your future

and when you take the why out of your own future

it becomes our future
