the last of this year.


When it's only a day away, I should be saying
Goodbye childhood, goodbye dreams.
And soon somebody will be sitting behind the wheel.
"Debonair, my darling Claire. I do not want to leave my hopes behind."
All shall be lost and forgotten, never to see sunlight again.

This is us, in NYC (I think), strolling along the streets, chilling all day
and working as bartenders all night.
That isn't really my dream job, but definitely makes my 'To-Do-Before-I-Die" list.

I want to watch Disney Princess movies again, to bring back the sweet feeling of nostalgia.
You had no idea how much I hyperventilated when I realized Disney was showing Beauty & the Beast.
Belle is always my favorite, probably 'cause I'm much of a bookworm like her.
I must say however, Beast attracts me much more than Prince Charming does.

If I ever kept a journal and wrote in it like I blog, I would be putting the murder of trees to waste.
Farewell nightingale, sleep tight.
I hope to see you and your red curls soon in the near future.
Make it something for me to anticipate for in '11.

" You must tell them. They deserve the right to know!"

A bittersweet Christmas special; let's go back to 1800s.


London, England.

My thoughts are too crowded in my head, I feel that I must put them down on paper in ink.
The climate here is terribly chilly, the tip of my nose is bitterly cold from the frosty weather.
I sniffle as I write, rather unladylike- which is something my dear mother would heavily disapprove of. Here I sit, under the wise, oak tree- my dear faithful friend, as I write. My dearest sisters are busily socializing, Jane with Bingley, Lydia with Mr.Wickham, whom, we are still learning to warmly welcome into our family.

To be honest, dear journal, I am terribly upset about society lately. No one seems to know the true meaning of Christmas anymore! The birth of the beloved one, the All Almighty! has all slipped their minds. Meretricious things such as hierarchy and approval of society has become the highlight of Christmas day now, the story of the shepherds and the three wise men bring no relevance whatsoever.

I grieve to say, that I, too, am guilty of this horrible sin. No matter how much I set my goal on reading a few pages of the Holy book each day, it tends to slip my mi-

Mr. Darcy just walked by. Again. He has been loitering around these days, where ever I might be. When ever my family and I attend social events (courtesy of my mother, who never fails to gets us invited), I notice Mr.Darcy hanging back behind the crowd. Maybe he is afraid to approach me? That is what my sisters seem to think. I will only admit this to you, dearest journal- I think I may have a slight attraction to Mr.Darcy! He may be cruel and deceiving in his own subtle ways, but I sense somewhat tension, when we converse. Not that we have been confabulating often, that is. A man like him is not worthy of my grace.

I shall stop here now, my love. Mother is calling for dinner. She had some 'seating arrangements' done, oh I do hope it is not Mr.Darcy and I again!

Farewell for now, forever yours- E.B.



et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort.



After a week of waking up earlier than usual,
I must say I'm certainly delighted to go back camping under the duvets 'till the late morn.

I will sing you feelings hidden in words,
I will play you happiness and anger on the black-and-white keys,
I will enclose the secrets deep inside me,
So that they may never see light again.

Christmas is weeks away,
out comes the coloured pens and paper,
baking tray and flour.
Creativity and time spent together written on paper,
of what camaraderie builds between two friends.

Red, green, white;
- your themed Christmas colours.
Instead of praying to your Father,
you choose to trust in the 'magic' 11:11 gives you.

I don't know how long I can stand here and give you smiley faces
when all you do is make me upset.
I suppose it's the raging hormones, or more of your lack of insensitivity.
I wonder how long I'll last.
We can count our days on our backs,
mark them off like they do in jail cells,
as we choose to either live, or die day by day.

Oreo, oreo, oreo,
feed me something tongue teasing and delicious.

" When we used to spend our time on Disney games. I still do that, actually. "

food samples and disney lovelies.




Why am I not here?
Remember when we used to go to shopping malls on the weekends?
'Adventure escapades' ,more like it.
We'd run up and down the elevated walkways,
then crash supermarkets to get food samples for lunch.
Mmm...food samples.
Probably the best thing supermarkets can offer that don't cost a cent.
Soup, cereal, noodles, cookies, tea- you name it.
... and gone were those childhood days.

Kinder my love for the piano,
it's possibly my favorite sound in the world.
You can sing a person to sleep with it,
or simply lash out your anger and plaintiveness on the minor keys.

I want to laze around on the couch lazily, curled up in a warm, fluffy comforter,
and watch those Disney Classics we used to watch back then.
Pop in those DVDs and pull out the pretzels, it's gonna be a lovely night.

" He's gone, you can't bring him back. He's gone on to a better place. "


Status: Married.


I was engaged to Happiness, had a little fling with Jealousy;
Anger spotted us making out, but then we slept it out.
I left Moody in messy sheets, went on and hooked up with Love.
Then 6 hours later I went to Vegas and ended up engaged. Again.
I am now happily married to Contented and we're gonna
multiply with fruitful offspring, losers.

Awards Night came and went, and so did the Yearbook Editorial chaos.
I am honestly going to miss the latter than the former,
mainly because I formed close bonds with those who
I was rather distant with at first.
In 3 more days, school's gonna end
And I have yet to figure out what I'm gonna do with that 1 1/2 months.

Don't you just hate it when people fuck with your feelings?
Ah, my creativity's at it's end. Will rejuvenate.
" As she ran out to him, closer and closer she got, he slowly, little by little, disappeared into thin air before her very eyes. "

from the heart to your lips, I become your puzzle.


Alors tu vois, comme tout se mêle
Et du cœur à tes lèvres, je deviens ton casse-tête
Ton rire me crie, de te lâcher
Avant de perdre prise, et d'abandonner
Car je ne t'en demanderai jamais autant
Déjà que tu me traites, comme un grand enfant
Et nous n'avons plus rien, à risquer
À part nos vies qu'on laisse de coté

Et il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

C'en est assez de ces dédoublements
C'est plus dur à faire, qu'autrement
Car sans rire c'est plus facile de rêver
À ce qu'on ne pourra, jamais plus toucher
Et on se prend la main, comme des enfants
Le bonheur aux lèvres, un peu naïvement
Et on marche ensemble, d'un pas décidé
Alors que nos têtes nous crient de tout arrêter

Il m'aime encore, et toi tu m'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça , il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

Encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça , il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça , il m'aime encore et moi je t'aime encore un peu Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Et malgré ça , il m'aime encore et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort
Mais il m'aime encore, et moi je t'aime un peu plus fort

So you see, as everything gets mixed
And from the heart to your lips, I become your puzzle
Your laugh screams I should let you go
Before losing grip and giving up
'cause I will never ask so much of you
You already treat me like a big child
And we don't have anything to risk anymore
Apart from our lives we leave beside

And he still loves me, and I love you a bit more
But het still loves me, and I love you a bit more

It's enough for these splits
It's harder to do than other times
Because without laughing, it's easier to dream
about what we will never be able to touch again
And we hold hands, like children
Happiness on the lips, a bit naïvely
And we walk together, with determined steps
So that our heads scream we should stop everything

He still loves me and you, you love me a bit more
But he still loves me and I, I love you a bit more
And despite that, he still loves me and me, I love you a bit more
But he still loves me and me, I love you a bit more

Still, and I, I love you a bit more
But he still loves me and I love you a bit more
And despite that, he still loves me and I love you a bit more
But he still loves me and I love you a bit more
And despite that, he still loves me and I love you a bit more
But he still loves me and I love you a bit more
And despite that, he still loves me and I love you a bit more
But he still loves me and I love you a bit more

of something so exciting interrupted by a period.

I am so happy. No wait, maybe more of satisfied? No wait, that sounds entirely wrong. We shall talk more next time.

I am much, terribly much confused, and maybe just a little 'bit in love at the same time.

- obituary this.

we were such kids back then.



1) When I was 5, I learned that 'cuckoo bird' could mean other than a clock with a bird popping out at every hour. The word came out of my mouth innocently enough and the words that came out of my parents' mouth were not very pleasing.

2) When I was 7, I saw my first Harry Potter movie. Then on, I was determined to become an actress. I also wanted to be a fashion designer, a stewardess and a model at the same time. I was rather ambitious.

3) When I was 7, I also had my first crush. His name is Daniel Radcliffe. In my eyes, he was the perfect little boy who lived under a staircase. How delightfully attractive.

4) When I was 8, I twirled round and round at a wedding lunch reception.... and banged my elbow into the wooden wall, which triggered flows of tears and blood. True story.

5) When I was 9, I had my first horse ride in Gold Coast, Australia. I enjoyed every moment of it. Thinking about it still makes me smile, thank you, Aussie.

6) When I was 7-10, I was a total nerd. It was good grades, tiny circle of friends all the way. For four years. Then things changed.

7) When I was 11, I discovered Hollywood. The first band I ever came across- The Black Eyed Peas. My creys, can you believe it, 11. Please refer to no. 6.

8) When I was 12, I had a circle of friends. Completely cliquely. I was used, backstabbed and hated. I was also equally mean and vicious. Along these lines, I found out that a certain boy didn't ask me out because my 'friends' told him not to.

9) When I was 12, I met a really nice guy named Jay. He excelled in various criteria on the Potential Boyfriend Checklist. A little bird told me that the feelings were, in fact, mutual, but it was a mini-eye contact that sadly didn't last.

10) When I was 12 and 7 months, I watched The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. And that's where the Skandar Keynes story began.

11) When I was 13, I was racist. But it was my own race I turned upon. Shameful, I know. I don't really regret it, I suppose it's just one of those phases.

12) When I was 13 and a month, I started loving Hannah Montana and Taylor Swift.

13) When I was 13 and 3 months, I fell off my bike while tying my hair. If you see the hidden meaning then pat yourself on the back.

14) When I was 13 and 5 months, my dad took us on a cruise. It was just whimsicle, and working on a cruise ship as a performer was added to my 'To Do' list.

15) When I was 14, I didn't do anything memorable as far as I can remember. I shall get back to you on that.

16) When I was 15, I was free from attending Mandarin class in school. Elated I was, indeed.

17) When I was 15 and 4 months, fans who liked that same thing that I did started to get really annoying. I dropped Hannah Montana followed by Taylor Swift. They are now on my 'hake' list.

18) Now I am 16, I have changed quite a fair bit. I've moved from Western FOOD to.. still Western and Japanese, Taylor Swift to Regina Spektor, 'La-s' and 'Ma-s' to 'How do you do-s', Brad Pitt and Angie Jolie to Josh Duhamel and Stacey Ferguson. I also like putting my imagination on paper and creativity on my blog. And sleeping is a terribly enjoyable hobby.


I'll leave my love with you for now.

- because penguins and zebras have the same thing in common.

and that makes 2



Grapes, my dear purple.

I must sincerely tell you how I felt
inside that room behind the close door.
It was anger, failure, tiredness and devastation,
in that order.
To make myself feel better, I decided to stop holding in the tears
and let them flow freely. Well, just a little.
This, might I add, also loosens up the knot in my throat.

Blue, my dear sea creature.

You may be physically small, but secretly you're the largest mammal in the living ocean.
Thank you for being my rant to person.

xx
- gosh, this is getting really boring

miss my mess.


What a DAY, I had all these things to do
Now I just wanna cry out my fustra

I shall sing it to you:

My name is Cinderella, or you can call me Mozza Rella.
I don't go to Princess School where I learn to walk and curtsy.
But instead drown in Pacs of Life where
you learn 3 types of rocks exist.
And your very friend the sedimentary, shall delightfully be of no use to you.

As the months scroll by to September,
I was thrown a task by the Red Queen,
to build her majesty a little boat
which will float her dreamily in the little river.

Wistfully, I did as she asked,
designed the blueprints and all.
But my beloved Red Queen then came to me
and said:
' Rella! I now want a yacht!
It shall bring me nicely around the beach
where the tan men may fall hopelessly in love with me.'

So I smiled ever so brightly at her,
then cussed a little as she walked away,
threw and burned the old blueprints,
and started on the yacht one straight away.

As I got my woodmen ready- the carpenters and all,
She, the Red Queen, once again came to me
and said: 'Rella! My little doll!'
' I've changed my mind,' exclaimed the royal she,
' I want a huge ship now. I heard the Queen of Timbuktu has one,
now wouldn't it be fun?'

She sashayed away again, leaving me to stare,
at all the work I had done, all that I had prepared.
So again, I began from scratch, drawing and measuring lines,
I had to keep my mouth shut, as I was not allowed to whine.

Part by part the ship was built, little by little the pieces came,
Everything was measured, as they had to be the same.
Soon, came the day, where behold, the ship was built.
The Red Queen, the silly, arrived draped in quilt.

All the castle's maidservants had gathered to see,
their beloved Red Queen set out to sea.
All shed miserable tears,
Except for our beloved, Mozza Rella dear.

//
However, I must say,
Rella DID in fact shed tears behind closed doors.
And then she wiped her tears away, and went out to face the world
with a smile plastered on her face.

I'm hungry and I want this now.

- and we're back to square one

save it for later.



My day was lovely, the weather was fine.
I hope you fall on your behind.

Nowadays, I no longer blog of
the new dress I bought or of attractive foreign guys I saw (okay maybe I still do)
My posts nowadays consists of rambling little sentences
that may or may not make sense to you,
depending on who you are.

Why? do you ask, I no longer blog about my daily mishaps?
I want to make my blog something more than the norm,
well maybe, what I consider the usual norm to me.
So daily activities and emotions shall be encoded
into the language which you know so well.
That meaning lies in every word.

And if you certainly must know,
I did, in fact, had a ravishing week so far.
Conversations loaded with Tumblr language,
a few of which, have successfully survived in reality.

My creys, I'm off to study for my Science test.
Ain't rocket science, but still.


And the charming boy kept his mysteriousness an allure.

xx
- why on earth do you find that fascinating?

(unpublish) my beautiful fitzpatrick.



Oreo Truffles

Where shall I begin?
There's about 1 1/2 month of school left
or 6 weeks if you'd like to make it short.
It seems like only yesterday was January.
And time runs way to fast, making no stops for anyone.

Mmm.. yeah, so divine. Love the way the flowy base seems like butterfly wings.
Shala, I'm off to take the transit, maybe you'll wait?
Maybe not, and only time will tell.
My curiosity confused my friend, and now it appears to her that
I have a thing for the State kid. Just marvellous.

xx
- twist, twist and leap.

a cinder's love.



A long break from Blogger, after all that Tumblr nonsense.
Yes, I do miss writing you stories of my not-so fictional existence.
I wish I was more inspired and had creative juices flowing into my brain,
but for now, however, I do not.

Rekindled another ex-love for fashion designing a few days ago.
Working on school project and it reminded me of a lil' convo I had with
Grace eons ago..
*backseat of the car*
grace: so what do you wanna be when you grow up?
me: urhm..a fashion designer? (dear reader, please close your gaping mouth)
grace: really? me too!
We were such hopeful kids back then.

In Tumblr terms, photos like these make me feel
forever alone, a term that even I for one must say, is beyond exaggerated.
The fact that 4 years ago, if one of us had actually bothered to admit the truth,
then maybe we could've been all we could have been.
Ah love, I honestly wonder where in the world you are right now.

xx
- 6 billion, and then there's you.

P.S. I just hit 103. Oh yeeeaaaaah.

beauty.



My sickest lover, the one who was always there for me.
Maine Mainly, the one who never left.
Thank you for being there for me,
especially during the blue days.
Filling me up when I felt rather empty,
a great tea-time friend.

My cheesecake lover, where for art thou?
You also come in the gorgeous, most bodacious form
of a mouthwatering delight.

To serve as a gift, perhaps?

This. Is. Beauty.
If I could own any endangered wildlife,
it would be the White Siberian Tiger.
Flawless snow-furred beauty.

And behold,
Beauty in another form.
My ex-obsession.
xx
- throw the pen away.

count them slowly.



I think there's something wrong with reality.
People complain too much, life's too chaotic.
And the word 'complicated' is really starting to bug me.

Honestly speaking, if there wasn't so much pressure on external beauty,
the world would be a much nicer place to live in.

I am going to sleep to dream of more peaceful things.
Hope to see you there!

xx
- take a deep breath, and jump.

over the moan.



Escapism; Reality.

I feel immense joy and I don't know why.
It's strange considering my breakdown yesterday.
And no, it's not my Aunt Flo, however relevant that might seem to you.

I'm happy ecstatic elated.
And hopefully my mood stays this way for awhile.

Keynes, Callaghan, Carter, Lerman, Bennett.
Did you figure out why?

xx
- they don't get enough.

another gross one.



I saw her flirting across the room
making her way to this guy
All it took was on look,
She definitely caught his eye.

Slowly, one became two
They intertwine, oh, tender fingers so sweet.
And they did things which they shouldn't.

Woke up one morning to find that she's gone,
Cleared her clothes and make-up,
And all them things she used to dress up.
Love letters left on his coffee table,
some torn, some shredded, mostly- burnt.

I watch her break his pitiful heart,
that vulnerable little piece of his system
The one thing he gave up, mostly devoted to her.
Now even glue won't fix it.

So on goes the vixen,
that oh-so femme fatale,
On to her next victim,
to find another heart to eat.


lady in red.



Paint the walls dry, they cry.
Oh so soundly, she sleeps,
The way she walks so slender,
makes grown men cry.

And with those piercing eyes,
with her deliciously malicious intentions.
She'll rip your heart out.

Songs that make me cry have been absent in my life for awhile,
and now, the kind souls have made their appearance.
With love, I wish to present you this beautiful song.
But fear prevents me so, for fear you may laugh and mock.

On my wall sticks those I love.
Currently of 5, in total.

My best friend told me she gave up on me 2 days ago.
Go figure.

xx
- and so they say, the story goes.

3 pictures and joy.




Immense JOY.
Finished, executed and terminated my Sci 1003.

)(!^$(&#^JDBBVLDVMBSLVMLDMV
This is when I get extremely happy on the keyboard.

Truth to be told,
I caught a virus which has been spreading around.
No lactose and spice,
had to survive on porridge and cereal.
:(

*after whining, it is traditional for the blogger to post pictures, which in returns lightens the mood and hopefully keeps the reader still interested.

Have I told you I absolutely love,
beyond LOVE macaroons?
They're simply ingenious,
and plus side they look stunning in pictures.
So amazing that I can't describe it in words,
only to tell you: You have GOTTA try one.

Yeah, as much as I find Spongebob overrated and all over the place,
I had to post this, and yes, it's a cake.
It's a shame great things lose their charm when too many people love them.

-and you ask yourself :"Why did I bother highlighting this?"
