“I think it happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve known forever don’t see things the way you do.

Throw things out there and not be perfect and not have answers to anything and see if people understand.” — Angelina Jolie no matter how dire a situation is, how eager i am to runaway from it all, or to try a grass patch

“Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it’s all over.”— Gloria Naylor when a fool walks right into the wall and ends up with a major concussion,they walk right into the same wall again just to confirm the wall's the

“If you love and get hurt, love more. If you love more and hurt more, love even more. If you love even more and get hurt even more, love some more until it hurts no more..” — William Shakespeare ever wondered why ex-smokers never go back to smoking? cause the thought of going through the whole process of quitting, the pain they had to endure to abstain from it, was enough to keep them away

“We probably shouldn’t talk,Cause talking leads to thinking andEyes wide open blank in the dark. We probably shouldn’t think,Cause thinking leads to questioning andCircles you right back to the start But everything used to make sense,We’re testing it in our own strength, oh no”— The Narrative - Fade time will tell.

“This is a test, isn’t it? It’s like choosing out of three caskets in a fairy tale. Everyone knows the rules. You never choose the gold shiny one. Or even the quite impressive silver one. What you’re supposed to do is choose the dull little lead one, and then there’s a flash of light and it turns into a mountain of jewels.” — Sophie Kinsella when things beyond your imagination happens right

“I sat before the fire in the Library—and read—almost a little wildly. I wanted to drug myself with books—-drown my thoughts in a great violet sea of Oblivion.” — Katherine Mansfield (Notebooks) you know that feeling, that feeling where you look right into the eyes of the person you love, or hear his/her voice and you could just feel their disappointment go right through you but there's

"Sometimes you have to stand alone - just to make sure you still can." PSLE is tomorrow, and i can see myself losing control,having the urge to wring my student's neck no matter how cute she is. we often find ourselves in situations where nothing else matters anymore as our emotions takes the lead and swallows us up whole. it's just you and your emotions for the moment. nothing else crosses

"Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense." - Ralph Waldo Emerson despite my shrinking social life, and the hectic days ahead. the day ended really well. and it's

“There is so much about my fate that I cannot control, but other things do fall under the jurisdiction. I can decide how I spend my time, whom I interact with, whom I share my body and life and money and energy with. I can select what I can read and eat and study. I can choose how I’m going to regard unfortunate circumstances in my life-whether I will see them as curses or opportunities. I can

“He sailed through the world guided only by the dim lights of impulse and habit, confident that his course would throw up no obstacles so large that they could not be plowed over with sheer force of momentum.” — Donna Tartt, The Secret History i refuse to feel this way, not because i dont care, not because it didn't matter. but time now is too precious to be used for sulking and drowning in

“He is not heroic, he is aware that modern life is full of nondescript melancholy, of discomfort, of queer relationships which beget emotions that are half-ludicrous and yet painful and that an inconclusive ending for all these impulses is much more usual than anything extreme.” — Virgina Woolf, on the short stories of Anton Chekhov i always wondered why things are the way it is now, and i

there are two big decisions in life, where you're going and who you're going to take with you. knowing that eternity is where i'm heading,it makes the second part all the more important. cause eternity means no end, no time, eternity means you are stuck with these people and the only way to make all this work is probably this other thing which can exist in eternal form--love. i always

"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." it's funny how the word "busy" always seem to find its way to me these days.not that i dont like it, but i dont particularly adore it either.it's a love-hate relationship. so i decided to sit down

The Mississippi's mighty, but it starts in Minnesota,At a place where you can walk across with five steps down,And i guess that's how you started,like a pinprick to my heart. sometimes it's really difficult to distinguish between the feeling of having something for someone and getting too carried away by the nice things that he/she has done. which is why it's hard to say you are reciprocating a

“Don’t let go too soon.

“We create illusions we need to go on. And one day, when when they no longer dazzle or comfort, we tear them down, brick by glittering brick, until we are left with nothing but the brought light of honesty. The light is liberating. Necessary. Terrifying. We stand naked and emptied before it. And when it is too much for our eyes to take, we build a new illusion to shield us from its relentless

“Love is like a booger. You keep picking at it until you get it, then wonder what to do with it.” — Unknown sometimes knowing too much isn't exactly a good thing. yes we need to keep ourselves updated and wary of all the things that are happening around us. but when we start to feel some things are better off not knowing, or when some things are too much to bear. then maybe ignorance is bliss

A few times in my life I’ve had moments of absolute clarity, when for a few brief seconds the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think, and things seem so sharp and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived my life on these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that

heart skipped a beat.and when i caught it..you were out of reach. i hate it when every single thing that matters leaves behind a dent in my heart,whether i like it or not,whether i want it or not. the heart's like a clay fieldwhere anything which passes through leaves a mark, an indentand the only way to protect it is by building fences and walls,there's no such thing as a filter whereby we could

“For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.” — Vincent Van Gogh no, that's not a two... it's a twenty. really pumped up and ready to go, in all aspects. it's funny how you can look at something so ambitious and feel like it can be and will be done anyway. i guess that's the power of God- the ability to see it even before it's even there. this

"when a person can't answer directly to your question,probably,the answer is hard for them to admit or too painful for you to know." the subconscious mind was something i never thought i would notice, neither did i think i would be bothered about. maybe cause it's our subconscious mind. but maybe reading about it made realise the power of it all. that it's best at bringing out the truth in the

“Maybe it makes sense now. Maybe somewhere in all of this there’s a reason. Maybe somewhere in all of this there’s a why. Maybe somewhere there’s that thing that let’s you lie it all up with a neat bow and bury it in the backyard. But nothing, not getting angry, not prayers, and not reats, nothing can make something that happened unhappen.” — The United States of Leland elated i am, but

'I generally begin working on a story in total ignorance, which I think is the ideal starting point for me, because only if you are truly ignorant can you ask the truly ignorant question. But I have only the foggiest idea of what the story is when I get started on it. And in fact, every story that I write, when I'm doing my reporting, I always come upon some information that completely destroys
