its the turn of the new year,

and im sitting alone in my hall room. with, well, my dolls for company.

as sad as that sounds being spelt out in words like that, it doesnt affect me as much as pple would expect it to.

a random senior that ive never talked to in the past half a year just said hi downstairs and expressed shock at me coming back to hall at this time, and i stupidly replied "i never left". i dont know his name.

my parents just called from home on xinni's phone to ask why i didnt even bother to contact them for the new year, and i cant, because my phone is spoilt.

i could go down to the jcrc room to join kaiyang and xiaofeng in signing the xmas cards for hall, but being alone is strangely calming.


happy 2009.

a new doll on the way!

probably 3-4 weeks to ship =D

an ange ai hani from custom house

ive decided the little girl will be named Kay. Sweet mannered and soft-spoken, a girl who always places others before herself so that everyone would be happy.

one day i'll get her a twin brother called Kai (ange ai gaby, they'll look so cute together) XD

"I felt numb before. Now, i weep."

Days with my father is an online journal about a son's relationship with his 98-year-old father who has no short term memory.

Hauntingly beautiful and honest.

Please look at it.

Human - The Killers

And sometimes I get nervous when I see an open door
Close your eyes, clear your heart... and cut the cord

And so long to devotion you taught me everything I know
Wave good bye, wish me well, you gotta let me go

Will your system be alright?
When you dream of home tonight
There is no message we're receiving
Let me know, is your heart still beating?

Are we human, or are we dancer
My sign is vital my hands are cold
And I'm on my knees looking for the answer
Are we human... or are we dancer

Are we human, or are we dancer?
Are we human, or are we dancer?

are we still human? or set to mechanical routine, focused only on dancing, like puppets?

what do i decide.




OH PRAVIN JUST SHOWED ME THIS, DAMN COOL VISUALS HOMG.
performance at the european music awards.

cos the frightening part is,

despite all the rah-rah, i still wake up feeling quite alone.

something going wrong somewhere?

maybe its just the who i am.

i just realised that i dont think big enough.

you assure me that they're nice. its great to know that they're nice, of course, but i know what they're not.

they're not works of art.

i must do small drawings, yet think about filling museums.

"think big, start small... think big, act real."

will it be like this again next year?

from 'Here is Where We Meet'

Hair the last veil
before everything
a hair's breath
before nothing.

Hair the farewell
before the light
the endlessly black
before white.

Find in me
find in me for you
my brightness.
