I've found heaps of people who do weird nonsense like me here in Australia:

there's nini, who shares the same thought as me almost everytime. It's been more than 3 accounts when we have asked each other the same question at the same time. Last night, I linked her to a song which she wanted to link me to just seconds ago.
I've only met her for 3 weeks and she's already my best friend.


there's Jae, whom I just spoke to: he can't study with any distraction. Both of us take the effing battery out of the wall clock when we must study and we can't really study properly with others- because what's the point of studying when you can hang out?


there's Ernest, who says things that I would say in most situation and I see my future self in him. I think  he sees himself in me as well. We have the same philosophy and have thought about all the randomest idea. Honestly having a conversation with him is like talking to myself, only better.


Lastly, there's Mark. It scares me that we're similar in thoughts and the way we view things. I respect him and I think that he's a lovely human being. But, I'm scared I'll end up like him one day. He's generous and kind and gets things done in the most efficient manner. We both like the thought of "minimum effort for maximum results" though he obviously puts in more effort than the sloth that I am.



I enjoy talking to these people because they make me find who I truly am. I guess most of socialising is the networking and the fun but sometimes, and in my case- more often than not, it's nice to just sit down and have a deep conversation about life and how things function. not the bitchy kinda omg did you see what she wear? not even about last Saturday and how fun it is. But about life- squeezing all those mystery into a succinct conversation. That's my idea of connection.


It's funny how I seem to talk to my sgreans friends more now that I'm not in sg. Absence does make the heart grow fond hur.

Chmel and Friends - Sharon

母亲的爱,像一座高山, 蕴藏着深深的情感关怀, 就像春天里盛开的花朵, 从天地之间绽放而来。 女儿勇敢地闯荡世界, 激情像燃烧的火焰一样, 不愿受束缚,自由自在, 在风中自由地飞翔。 我们的道路不一样, 她在人生的舞台上奋斗, 母亲心里忧虑满满, 但却爱她永远不变。 当阴云遮挡视线, 母亲温柔地拍拍我的头, 只希望我能回家, 心情一直挂念。 看着我成长,像花儿开放, 偷偷地流下眼泪, 她的眼中隐藏着秘密, 风雨无法阻挡, 她的爱永远无边。 虽然道路曲折, 但爱会一直陪伴着你, 母亲守候在你身边, 爱你永不停息。

I'm glad you're home

The time was 3:13- it has been 2 hours since we started. She mentioned something about being on the wrong path and how there's a need to u-turn before falling off a cliff. My mind wasn't processing any of that. She bent down and showed me something on her phone: "I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you." My mind wanders off.. Is it really true? What do I have to base on? We've been seeing each other for several months now. One thing I recall is her saying that "You've been deceived". Is that what I needed to hear? It's been a while since I've had thoughts go through my mind.. This medicine I'm taking is numbing my senses and thoughts.. The time now is 7:40. I remember her feeling thirsty and getting a drink. After a while, she told me to speak to Him. I got winded on orange . "Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one" We were created from dust and spirit in...
