1. I’m a fickle-minded woman and a lifetime sufferer.
2. I take pleasure in sophistication through plainness. The outcomes aren’t always pretty but I’m enjoying the beauty.
3. I love reading/writing all sorts of poetry/ haikus/ conundrums/ prose etc. Yes, I’m a romanticist who’s indifferent in the society, thank you.
4. I’m terrible at guitars but it’s hard to keep my hands off em.
5. I've been writing since I was 9. A few editions of nothing unusual were documented. None ever published though.
6. I'm generally painless to those who know me. But people find it more common otherwise.
7. I love bananas. And I would know if one piece went missing. Call me berkira but no one steals my bananas unless my generosity kicks in! Haha. No hard feelings la :)
So I am technically single for simplicity sake. But no single being is absolutely single as they rightfully claim to be. You are taken in a sense that you are loved by everyone (if not, by any caring person) and cherished by many wonderful friends. Sure, it seems like you are pretty attached to every single being in your life, yet not quite like it. You are free to run and live your own life like no one else’s business- all the while trying to fall in love and be rejected. I am taken in a sense that I belong to God; as do all dominions belong to Him :-)
Okay, so this is not just some usual sense. This is a special kind of sense. But I AM special, so are YOU.
I guess you shouldn’t have taken me literally. Or maybe I should have been less complex so to speak. Or maybe I’m just crazy by definition. Gosh, I’m such a pain in the a** after all.
But do you believe me now that we are ALL taken in every sense?
Yes, I am taken… so are you!

One late evening.
Have you not seen how God makes the clouds move gently, then joins them together, then makes them into a stack, and then you see the rain come out of it.... (Quran, 24:43)
Skywalking,

I was in my final year of high school when I took this picture. I remember that I was late for school but somehow managed to take this one with class while on the run! Lol. Anyways, it still looks awesome just the way I remembered it. Of how the morning smelled like fresh grass and yes, the cool breeze. It really feels good recalling the moment now though, perhaps… especially so. It was one of the best mornings I ever had back then. If I were to worry about being late at that moment and just walked away, I definitely wouldn’t have the chance to talk about how amazing the morning was. I’m just glad I took the picture otherwise.
Unfortunately, though, I don’t take as much pictures like I used to, now. And I’m not sure when will I ever start again. In the meantime, I just box them skies with my fingers…true, the sky is too big to fit into the frame but there goes my imaginary camera. No films needed, just some space of your photographic memory...then, pray that the beautiful moments will stick in your head for as long as you breathe and let live :)
Alright, so pictures just do me wonders. No, rather God does. And I love surprises and coincidences. I love them even more when I don't pass them off as luck, but rather recognize them as a sign that my life's course is right on track.
And for all those countless blessings around me, I thank You God for the Heaven and the Earth.

Given everything contained within, it's fitting that Coldplay decided to saddle their new album with two seemingly disparate titles (it's called Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends, in case you weren't aware). Because if anything, it's the most bipolar thing they've ever done. Lol.
Then again, I forgot how much I loved them. They were the sound that I grew up with. No kidding. And I'm still upset about the rumours that have been going around- of them disbanding(?) Trust me, I'll cut every tongue of those who said such thing! All I know is that they'll only continue to rock on the music planet-
"We won't do another album until we think we've written the best songs in history, and that could take a while," Martin said. "So we could be waiting, 20 years or 50 years. Who knows? Our next record seems like a long way away."'
There you go!
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.
I needed something funny. To laugh my ass off. And needless to say, this one worked. Why, Jason never fails to keep my sanity(!) Then again, I meant nothing so as to offend the Creed fans and the like...
But really, I was totally "moved" by this one. A brilliant impersonation. Haha.

you were once
the sky
shining through
my April sunrise
revealing spirits
once concealed
sifting twisted,
discarded memories.
lingering heat
taste of hibiscus tea
on your lips where
words mixed
in a warm soup, enticing;
letters of the alphabet
hang on a teaspoon-
screaming, in fervor
dancing, in desperation.
our love
once burst in April rain
now lost
without gravity-
unpainted in space,
only silencing
in pain, it seems.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE ME THAT AM YOU(!)
