I ran around my house in this after I was done sewing and decided it needed help because... Bro: Wah...pregnant ah? Mum: Ya, giving birth soon. You don't know? (it's genuinely in the genes!) and it's so big and loose like PJs.   As the saying goes, or so I made up, a belt can change your life, or that of your dress. ***  Have an awesome Sunday, fellow Gnomes! (oh yes, I just dyed my hair and got those bangs.) |

It's like a photograph you see on the magazine,
so unbearable,
so blinding,
so painful to the eyes,
you just need to turn the page.
That's exactly what I need to do about us right now.

This weekend has been quiet,
in a nice way.
Good music
Snuggling under my sheets
Countless stoning moments
Flipping through old magazines
Haven't had all these in so many months.
p.s. I have stayed in my room for more than 24 hours.
p.p.s. Will you buy me Korg Kaossilator? |

"This is a tribute to the nice girls. To the nice girls who are overlooked, who become friends and nothing more. Who spend hours fixating upon their looks and their personalities and their actions because it must be that they are doing something wrong. This is for the girls who don’t give up on the first date, who don’t want to play mind games, who provide a comforting hug and supportive audience for a story they’ve heard a thousand times. This is for the girls who understand that they aren’t perfect and that the guys they’re interested in aren’t either, for the girls who flirt and laugh and worry and obsess over the slightest glance, whisper, touch because somehow they are able to keep alive that hope that maybe, just maybe this time he’ll have understood. This is a homage to the girls who laugh out loud and often, who are comfortable in skirts and sweats and combat boots, who care more then they should for guys who don’t deserve their attention. This is for the girls who have been in the trenches, who have watched other girls time and time again fake up and make up and fuck up the guys in their lives without saying a word. This is for the girls who have been there from the beginning and have heard the trite words of advice, from “there are plenty of fish in the sea” to “time heals all wounds.” This is to honor those girls who know that guys are just as scared as they are, who know that they deserve better, who are seeking to find it."

From the legendary "爱" (Taiwanese Serial Drama that is already airing on Channel U and will still be for the next 4 years, I heard),
Woman: You will get retribution!

Hahaha, I mean, that's such a cheap way to buy fright from the audience. |

I feel it coming back to me.
This familiar anger, the unexplainable anger,
wells up inside me.
And I think
that's how things end all the time.
Back then,
right now,
this same anger surfaces and I know it.
It calls for an end.
An end to everything.
It's about time.
I'm quitting you as a habit.

"Tell her you think shes cool. Tell her why you think shes so cool. Smell her hair. Talk to her in movie theatres. Pick her up and pretend youre going to throw her in the river; shell scream and fight you but secretly, shell love it. Hold her hand and skip. Hold her hand and run. Just hold her hand. Pick flowers from other peoples gardens and give them to her. Tell her she looks pretty. Let her pay for stuff if she wants to. Introduce her to your friends as The coolest girl I know. Sit in the park and talk to her. Take her to the library, and playgrounds, and train stations. Tell her dirty jokes. Tell her stupid jokes. Write poems about her. Just walk around with her. Throw pebbles at her window at night. When she starts swearing at you, tell her you love her. Take her to shows of bands shes never heard of. Hold her hand in the mosh pit. Let her fall asleep in your arms. Call her. Call her back if she calls you. Sing to her, no matter how bad you are. Carve your names into a tree. Get her mad, then kiss her. Give her piggy-back rides. Go see her band play even if they really suck, and tell her they were great. Give her space if she needs it. Push her on swings. Stay up with her all night when shes sick. Make up pet names for her, but cool ones, not sappy ones. Teach her guitar. Lend her your cds. Write on her. Make her mixtapes. Write her letters. If she asks you to go to a show with her, go, even if it means a 5 hour train trip. Take her to cool shops, and let her take you to even cooler ones. Listen to all the bands she mentions. Dont tell her that her favorite bands suck. When shes sad, hang out with her or stay on the phone with her, even if shes not saying anything. Buy her ice cream. Let her take all the photos of you she wants. Look into her eyes. Slow dance with her, even if the music is fast. Kiss her in the rain.When you fall in love with her, tell her. <3"

That would be perfect, for now.
p.s. Thanks Tong for this!

p.s. The "will" came out a little ugly. Oh well, treat it like it's bolded folks. Tell me how you like it or not.
