sex and the city

aside from sarah jessica parker's sagging skin, i thought the movie was decent enough! it was such a girls' movie, perfect for a girls' movie night out! it's entertaining, some kind of fairytale-ish, happy ending type of fun movie, it's obvious who the target audience of the movie is. doesn't really matter whether you've been a follower of the series, as long as you're female, it's sort of gets to you in a way or another. plus, it relates a girl's worst nightmare : being abandoned at the wedding altar (gasp! sidetrack: so don't even try getting married in the first place). basically, the movie is just alot of female indulgence - in fashion, brands, love and everything girly!

#1 If your lover betrayed you, what would your reaction be?
i'd rant and rave and be really legitimately childish and get back at him, or THEM.

#2 If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?
i don't know. can dreams really come true? else why would they be called 'dreams'?

#3 What will your dream wedding be like?
i think i would say what would be my 'ideal' wedding be like...held ON A PLANE! on the way to my honeymoon destination, all the guests on the plane with me, which is probably only a handful, just the usual immediate family and friends. if i could have it my way, i'd prefer a western fashion just a simple ceremony on the plane, minus the old fashioned wedding dinner, just alot of BOOZE AND DANCING AND PARTYING after the wedding (minus the parents, that is)

#4 Are you confused as to what lies ahead of you?
yes, extremely, i don't see my mind clearing up anytime soon...

#5 What’s your ideal lover like?
someone who is also my best friend, a pillar of strength for me (i'm actually very emotionally and physically weak i think), who loves me as who i am, ideally would have no eyes for no other legs than my thunder thighs, have no room for other homosapiens except me (maybe his parents, yes i assume my ideal lover to be MALE), and ideally my lover should be LOADED (with money, that is), someone who can be lots of fun together with me, able to catch up with me and catch me, someone able to have fast fun yet love slowly...


#6 Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
i like to have the best of both worlds, so my ideal lover should constitute of both personas!


#7 How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?
WHY do i have to wait for someone i really love? I think i can only tell if i really love that someone after we've been together.

#8 If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
I don't know...too bad i guess? Maybe we can be friends and if he happens to be unattached sometime later while I'm also still unattached then there can be a possibility...


#9 Is there anything that has made you unhappy these days?
everything. and nothing.

#11 Is being tagged fun?
i think so. at least someone thought of you sometime. being thought of feels nice.

#12 How do you see yourself in 10 years' time?
i do not live for the future, who knows, i might be dead tomorrow?

#13 Who is currently the most important person to you?
who are, i would say. my mum and my SO.

#14 What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
fun and possibly similar to me in ways of thought...(wani, that's you)

#15 Would you rather be single & rich or married but poor?
SINGLE AND RICH. DUH. wth, why is this even a question?

#16 What’s the first thing you do every morning?
think why i am still alive.

#17 Would you give all in a relationship?
yes. if the person is worth it.

#18 What is the sweetest thing someone has done for you?
being there for me.

her hands may not produce Beethoven’s symphony,
but what she does for me,
is worth more than all that money.
her voice may be no music at times,
but what she says will help, you’d find.
more than gold and better than silver,
she’s no queen but she is my mother.

happy mothers' day to all! :)

i hear him singing all so far
as if he was born on a different cloud
the songbird singing
little by little,
filling up the emptiness in my ears
like a force of nature
adding on the weight of my heart
hung in a bad place inside my chest
a quick peep was all it needed
to tell it's probably all in the mind
it's probably all in the mind

sociology: a dialectic discipline

i had my last paper at nus today. somehow i feel it's some kind of divine intervention that sociology is my last paper, it is symbolically significant to me. for all the things university life has exposed me to, sociology is the best thing. it has opened up my mind so broad i would never have imagined, though i would not say better, because betterment would take a relative aspect.
sociology has refined my thinking process, something like in an irreversible manner. sociology has this magical ability to penetrate on your cognitive processes so unknowingly and yet simultaneously, made you much more frighteningly aware of your surrroundings, whether you like it or not. sociology has put on me this hyper-aware radar which makes me extremely sensitive to not just issues, but life.

once a sociologist, always a sociologist. :)

these are the times when you just want to pack up and leave, plug in your ipod, fly off to some city, walk down the unfamiliar streets, just wandering about...it's funny how one feels the most comfortable in an unfamiliar place, all oblivious to the environment, no one to bother about, nothing to worry about. i just want to scoot off, without a care in the world...

bury me in honor
when i'm dead and hit the ground
a love back home unfolds
if you love me
won't you let me know?
