You meet someone. You two get close. It's all great for a while. Then someone stops trying. You talk less. You drift apart. When you try to get in touch again, There are only awkward silences and awkward conversations. So you give up. No more communication, whatsoever. Memories start to fade. The person you know becomes the person you knew. That's how it...Read More
I've been receiving many nonsensical questions on my ask.fm recently and one in particular pissed me off. It all started with one questions asking me whether I mind if my boyfriend masturbates (if I have one), which I answered that I don't mind. My secondary school classmates are pretty open-minded and we've talked about this before. I've come to accept that 99% of...Read More
Maybe you're like me. Maybe you feel more than you think, although you think a lot because logic is important. Maybe underneath all that hardness, you're made of mashed up emotions. Maybe you're scarred and bruised, but healed and fine. Maybe you're tired, but somehow because of that you’re inspired. Maybe you're quiet because you like watching people and it feels safer inside...Read More
It's been awhile since I've truly been in touch with writing. Lately, my blog has become more like a tool, an equipment for generating income. But not so much a passion. I feel like I've stagnated far too long in this aspect. I need to do surpass this bottleneck. I want to feel the drive again. The passion that's kept me going in...Read More
Sometimes we try to escape the every challenge life has given us. Like how, every time we've got a problem, instead of thinking how to resolve it, we're thinking more of how to find a way around it and try to act as if the problem does not exist. What's the point of the challenges given by life if we just choose to...Read More
I know, in taking the crutches of you away, I can still stand. It's an overwhelming feeling that life is moving on too fast, so fast that there were so many times I just wanted to linger in the moments, absorb the bliss, and never want them to go away. But time is relentless. Like how it chased my pain away, these moments of...Read More
Everything is passing by too fast. It felt like yesterday when I was queuing up to buy my secondary school uniform way back in secondary one. Yet, secondary school is now just another chapter of life that I have left behind me. Ngee Ann Polytechnic has opened another door for me and today was the end of my freshmen orientation camp. ...Read More
Thinking about the future worries me. I don't know where am I heading to. I love being in the spotlight, I love the media, I love writing. But as things start to get competitive, as things start to get serious, I see myself falling. How many people chose to work in this industry and come out alive? That handful. I used to be...Read More
They say beauty is but skin deep. But the sad truth is that when we first see someone, we created an impression on him/her. And first impression counts. You can be intelligent, diligent, hardworking and all but if you looked like a mess and go for job interviews, I highly doubt the chance that you will be given the job. That is just...Read More
Why can't I just let this go? Why can't you see the efforts I've put in, trying to maintain this friendship? Why can't I be anybody else? Why do these feelings keep coming back to me? I've learned to accept that some things are just not meant to be. I've learned to accept the fact that some people just come and go. I've...Read More
Breaking at the cracks. And everything goes black. It's another heart attack. And I can't handle that. If everything could just last. ...Read More
