I believed that there was someone "out there" who was "meant for me", someone divined by the stars to be by my side through this life. I had very strong preconceived notions on what this person would be like, and I was certain that there would be no one else but this person with whom... Continue Reading →
Still Alive
I was at many times in this trip tempted to drive recklessly, almost to tell her "f*** you". But I didn't. What I feel like doing, what I think of doing, and what I do, are three separate things. I normally do the right thing.
The Life Worth Living
There is no right way to live. There is no good or bad. Whether we save a millions lives or conduct mass genocide, neither can be said to be better than another. It's just what happens.
Going Too Smoothly?
"Do you think things have been going too smoothly?" I asked her. "Heh, it's the honeymoon period, these first three months." I just lay there, thinking. I didn't like the way we had progressed. I felt that we needed to quarrel over something. I don't know why, but when things go as frictionless as it... Continue Reading →
Interesting
We chatted over the topic of girlfriends over a cup of ice-blended lychee. He told me that he didn't attract "those" type of girls, glancing over and prompting me to look at a girl behind me. That girl he was looking at was what he called the "clubber" type. "Maybe they find me boring," he... Continue Reading →

"If you've got something to tell me," she said, "just tell me. Don't bottle it up!" This was it. He knew that though his telling her... Continue Reading →

The Girlfriend and the Close Friend
And so, one day, you decide to get romantically involved with some girl. For the first few days, weeks even, everything goes great. Your friends are happy for you, some ecstatic even, and they congratulate you on your new-found love. But due to your commitments to this new-found love, you start spending less time with...

Looking Toward the Future
I have neglected this website for quite a while now. The reasons, I am sure, are probably many. Probably, I say, because I, myself, honestly find it hard to pin-point an exact reason why, and when I do, I find it isn't very accurate or true at all. Self-Censorship? But allow me to admit that...

On Writing
It's been ages since I have last written here. Going through the history of this site, I think that there's a sort of pattern that I can follow. During the more active times of my life, I tend to write quite a bit less, and during the times of my life where I have a... Continue Reading →
