forget it, cyrus;

I had a hard time trying to stop myself from rolling my eyes. I was reading an article about how Miley Cyrus wants to "ruin Radiohead". Wow.

She continued on in disbelief about the Thom Yorke band's lack of interest in meeting the Hannah Montana, admitting she was so disappointed about the diss, she left the show early.

"I left 'cause I was so upset," she said. "I wasn't going to watch. Stinkin' Radiohead! I'm gonna ruin them, I'm going to tell everyone."

Wow. Wow. Wow. I'm surprised Radiohead didn't even go, "Who on earth is Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus?" To be honest, I think Radiohead is already pretty nice. Other bands may have been ruder and more straightforward.

Lalala.

the horror of it all;

And then you lower your head and ask yourself if you have already let go.

I miss Gigi.

I miss her to bits. I keep thinking that she's still around, and everytime I step into the house I'd find myself going to look for her to play.

Only to remember she's gone.

I keep seeing something brown sitting in a corner, or near the organ, or outside the door. I seem to see her everywhere. It's like her soul never left.

What's haunting me, is the memory of her trying to run towards me when I came home, during the last day of her life. She was trying to be more lively. And that day was the first time she'd run towards me to welcome me after a long period of time. She was getting old and spending a lot of time sleeping, so much that she never realised it when people came home. That day, I saw her try to run towards me. That weak, almost-helpless attempt will always be in my mind.

It was like as if she already knew that her time was up. And that if she didn't do it she would never get to do it again. To welcome her owner home. One last time.

snow test;




Your Snow Test Says You're Independent



You feel like something good will happen to you in the next few months.
You love to work, especially when work is creative. You have the makings of a successful artist.
You are an independent, individualistic person. You thrive when you're doing your own thing.
Your biggest worry in your life is your health. You tend to be a bit of a hypochondriac.
When it comes time to relax, you have no problem letting go. You are already pretty relaxed as is!

this is for...

the dearest crab in the world.

(Haha!)

On the 7th/8th of February, something amazing happened.

It changed all our lives (including the monkeys' And oh yeah, your fellow crabs').

The moon, the sun, the clouds didn't believe it. And then, the sun and the clouds fought. But according to Eternally Missed by Muse, the sun forgives the clouds. Where did the moon go? I have no idea.

You can run, you can hide, but this is the truth. The crab and the monkey made the moon, the sun and the clouds fight. (And the moon is still missing.)

You have a campaign that brings all crabs together. All the crabs in the world unite!

And this is getting pointless so I've decided to go and look for the moon.

Monkeys love crabs. :)

rest in peace;

I don't want to sound like this on Valentine's Day, but yes, I felt I had to write this and be done with it.

To my dearest pet ...

Rest In Peace.

Gigi, you've been a wonderful pet. Almost 11 years ago, my father brought you home from the streets, and you lived with us ever since. You have been in my life for more than 10 years of my short 16 years, and you're in almost every memory I have. Losing you is like losing a part of me.

I cannot believe that you're already gone. The house feels empty without you. Everyone misses you. We step into the house, and we feel it at once, that you're no longer there. I sometimes think that you're still alive. Because life still goes on without you, and everything seems normal. Until I suddenly remember that you're no longer here and I feel a pang. It keeps happening. It is, really, very, very hard to accept the fact that you're gone.

I will always miss the times we played hide-and-seek. You always lost. (Unless I gave myself up.) I will miss hearing you whine for food. I will miss you.

You were my first pet, my friend, my everything. If I was ever a bad owner,
I am sorry. Sometimes I shout at you because you misbehave, but I've never stopped loving you. I'm not crying because I promised somebody I won't. And people tell me you won't want to see me like this.

Wherever you are now, I know you're no longer suffering. And that's enough to comfort me. I'm sorry about the pain you had to experience. I wished you never had to suffer any.

My father says that we should be happy for you. If he hadn't taken you home 11 years ago, you'd have been gone much earlier. I still remember the thick, thick rope tied around your neck (that could have suffocated you), and your injured paw. When you first arrived I thought you were a baby. And we tried to give you milk. But you didn't want it.

On your first day at our house, my mother tried to feed you vegetables. That was the first time I saw you stand on your hind legs. You were so adorable. I remember I was squealing with delight, then.

In one year, you accidentally ran away from home. You were scared of rain, and you slipped out of the house. We found you on the 7th floor, one floor above us. You disliked cameras, because of the flash I forgot to turn off the first time I tried to take a picture of you. The flash reminds you of the lightning and you didn't like that either. You were a very quiet dog, and I haven't heard you bark more than 50 times in my entire life. You were a proud yet elegant old lady dog, and the dog next door loves you. But you never cared about him. And the list about you goes on. And on.

Gigi, I love everything about you.

You will always be in my heart. No other pet will replace you. I love you.

penrose;

I like the last name, Penrose.

Anyways, I've suddenly got this obsession with writing stories in a local setting. And I'm going to write a brand new one, in a local setting. It's actually more fun than I ever imagined. Be proud of your country and culture, a friend always said.

And it's my eldest brother's birthday today! I can't believe he's already 26! Happy Birthday TJR. And Happy Birthday, EUNICE TSE.

Lalala, I shall end here. My entries are always, almost meaningless.

'and romeo is 16'

It's hard to imagine myself being 16.

But I am 16 now. Sam says I have to aspire to do less stupid things. Haha!

And thanks to everyone for the gifts (ASOP!!!) and wishes!
