disclaimer : first, anything seen or read here cannot and will not be held against me in any way. second, you should here if you are a friend or unless you are a blog surfer here killing time. and if you are you're really wasting your time reading a blog of a person you don't know, see right there, that's 3 seconds you aren't going to get back.
now, i'm currently a freshman/sophmore at santa clara university. that has become my home away from home, but then again, i also consider melbourne my home away from home. i love being surrounded by people, even if there's no talking involved. i thank my lucky stars everyday for my friends, my singapore soulmates, my melbourne mates and of course my santa clara family. i have 16 friends which i would do almost anything in the world for and all of them are spread out between these 3 countries. which sometimes makes me sad but then there are the wonders of the internet and mediaring which everyone should use instead of skype *shameless advertising here*
i love music. my ipod is almost my lifeline. television is the source of everything good in my world. i love reading too, although i may not look the type. so basically music, books and television are my life.

my friend sent me this...
tell me if it's true...

1. Guys go crazy over a girl's smile.

2. Guys may be flirting around all day but before they go to sleep, they always think about the girl they truly care about.

3. If your best guy friend seems to avoid you or is never around when you're with your boyfriend, he's probably jealous and likes you.

4. A guy would sacrifice his money for lunch just to get you a couple of roses.

5. Before they call, guys try to plan out a little about what they're gonna say so there aren't awkward pauses, but once he's on the phone he forgets it all and makes it up as he goes.

6. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex-boyfriend or ex love-interest. Unless they're goin for the let-her-complain-to-you-and-then-have-her-realize-how-wonderful-and-nice-you-are method.

7. Pick a song, any song, he'll like it.

8. A guy who likes you wants to be the only guy you talk to.

9. Guys get jealous easily.

10. Do not cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair.

11. Giving a guy a hanging message like "You know what?!..uh...never
mind.." would make him jump to a conclusion that is far from what you are thinking. And he'll assume he did something wrong and he'll obsess about it trying to figure it out.

12. If a guy has been kept shut or silent, say something.

13. Guys think WAY too much. One small thing a girl does, even if she doesn't notice it can make the guy think about it for hours, trying to figure out what it meant.

14. A usual act that proves that the guy likes you is when he teases you.

15. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work. Strong hints do not work. Obvious hints do not work. Just...friggin...say it!

16. Guys hate flirts.

17. If the guy does something stupid in front of the girl, he will think about it for the next couple days or until the next time he spends time with the girl.

18. A guy's friend knows everything about him. Use this to your advantage.

19. Guys love perfume.

20. If a guy starts to talk seriously, listen to him. It doesn't happen that often, so when it does, you know something's up.

21. When a guy really likes you, he'll disregard all your bad characteristics.

22. When a guy asks you to leave him alone, he's just actually saying, "Please come and listen to me."

23. Guys don't like girls who punch harder than they do.

24. When a guy says he is going crazy about the girl, he really is. Guys rarely say that.

25. Guys hate rejection, but they hate being led on even more.

26. Don't play mind games with us if you're trying to get us to ask you out. If you do something which makes us think that you're not interested and keep this up for a while, or if you engage in very contradictory behaviors, most of us will just blow you off.

27.A Guy would ditch all his best buddies to hang out with the girl he likes.

28. "Fine" or "whatever" is not an appropriate ending to a conversation. Guys will think they did something horribly wrong.

29. Guys go crazy when girls touch their hands.

30. Guys hate girls who overreact.

i watched lord of the rings 3 the other night with eric and jen...
and this quote just really sruck at me..

"how do you pick up the threads of an old life? how do you go on...when in your heart...you begin to understand...there's no going back? there are some things that time cannot mend. some hurts that go too deep...that have taken hold"

i think if you can go back, it means you never left in the first place, your body might have but your heart is still at the point it started. you then miss out on experiences and opportunities that might ahve made you happier, more fulfilled. but then again, we would all rather remain in our little boxes because no matter how miserable and frighten you are there, whatever is outside the box might just be worse. the real break down is when you realise that you can't go back to the way things were, at least not exactly. because now there's a new reality that we all have to deal with.

there are so many memories that run through my mind...
and i wish we could all just sit down and rewind through all the heartaches
but there are just some people in my life that i don't think i'll ever have a conversation with again
and that's sad cause when i look through my picture of me with my old friends
i remember happiness, carefree feelings when we didn't worry about deadlines and projects

when grades was just a 6 letter word we dealed with at the end of the school year
when we could afford to miss classes and stay at home and play
when lectures were fun because it meant that we could sleep
when we loved wednesdays after recess (i think) and monday mornings cause we would have chapel
when we ran from our classrooms so that we could be the first in line for nasi lemak
when we would countdown the seconds to the end of the school day
when during assembly we would see how much we could slouch before being called on my the teacher

i miss the unairconditioned classrooms
the computer labs where the computers didn't work
the canteen
the hard chairs in the chapel
my leaking ceiling in palmerston
the ackward green couch
the crappy food

i miss the friends i neglected
the friends i left
the friends i forgot
the friends who left me

i wish i had a time machine...

pretty girl is suffering, while he confesses everything...
pretty soon she'll figure out what his intentions are
she's beautiful as usual with bruises on her ego
her killer instinct tells her to beware of evil men
but that's what you get for falling...
