"I've met God across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and God asks me, "Why?" Why did I cause so much pain? Didn't I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness? Can't I see how we're all manifestations of love? I look at God behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but God's got this all wrong. We are not special. We are not crap or trash, either. We just are. We just are, and what happens just happens. And God says, "No, that's not right." Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can't teach God anything."

“The saddest kind of sad is the sad that tries not to be sad. You know, when Sad tries to bite its lip and not cry and smile and go, “No, I’m happy for you”? That’s when it’s really sad.”

“What defines a best friend? What are the requirements to be a good best friend? How many hours a week does it entail? Stupid questions that have no answers. A best friend is not defined by how many times they talk on the phone, or how many hours they hang out together. It is not defined by how many sleepovers they gossip at, or how many inside jokes they have. There are no requirements or laws that state that a good best friend must hang out with them every weekend, or tell each other every little detail. A best friend is a matter of opinion. It is the person who has been there for you through everything, not just through the fun things, or the little things. It is the person that you call when you are at your absolute worst, it is the person who saves you when you didn’t even notice that you needed saving, mostly it is the person who accepts you for who you are, and the person that you are becoming”

People are getting lazier and lazier. We started out with blogs - xanga, blogspot, wordpress. Our thoughts and feelings were actually written in articulate sentences and yes, even paragraphs. Then facebook comes along and we're happily uploading pictures and videos and commenting on everyone else's lives. Suddenly twitter pops up with its big blank box and 139 word limit. All we need to do is type one liners and press enter. What next? Everybody is migrating to tumblr - ah, the ease of the "reblog" button. No brain power or personality input required at all. Although, that's not to say I'm an exception to the laze craze. I completely approve of the convenience it brings.

Byebye blogspot. Hello tumblr :)

Harry Potter and the HBP

2009-07-17T19:20:00.001-07:00

I think the movie was more of a glimpse into the lives of the characters than a real movie. There was no build up to the climax and no real resolution. Like the previous movie, it told no story. I don't deny that it was entertaining to watch the growth of Ron and Hermoine's potential love life, but they took out too many key scenes from the book to let the story flow. And is it just me, or is it very strange to see Harry attempting to go on a date with a waitress? Somehow it doesn't fit into my impression of Harry.

On a brighter note, Luna Lovegood undeniably remains the most eccentric and interesting character. Her quirkiness is amusing in an endearing way. I think everybody secretly wants to be Luna. She's exactly who she wants to be and she doesn't give a damn what everyone else thinks.

high on tea

2009-07-11T05:25:00.001-07:00

Now that I think about it, it was probably all the tea we drank last night.

I don't care if it's cliche,

Surrey, by river where we had our lunch.

Coming back from England is like waking up from a dream

and realizing that it was all real.

"Sometimes I get this feeling; this feeling of jumping off the edge of a roof. It’s what I feel like all the time with the things I do. I know I shouldn’t but I can’t help it. It’s like being on the edge of the roof all the time.”

hello from London! Here's what I've been doing in pictures:

Watched Wicked last night :)

Visiting the Body Space Motion Exhibition at Tate Modern

We met two friendly workers who insisted that we take pictures of them. (We asked them for directions first)

I have this temptation to label all the snacks in my kitchen with huge, bold, black block letters.

Cookies : TRANS FAT.

Chocolate : DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.

Easy Cheese : GO FOR PEANUT BUTTER.

Yoghurt : ICE-CREAM SUCKS. EAT ME.

and at Jose's request -

Veggies : FIBRE = EAT LESS = LESS FAT :)

Maybe then it'd be easier to avoid it all.

“did you say it? I love you. I don’t ever want to live without you. You changed my life. Did you say it? Make a plan, set a goal, work toward it. But every now and then, look around, drink it in, because this is it. It might all be gone tomorrow.”

We're all moving. Shifting from old to new, from new back to old. I can feel the thread holding us together severing, reconnecting, finding new people to bind to.

Parties catalyze drama. Everything that school forbids us to do bubbles to the surface in parties, in gatherings, where everyone thinks nobody's watching. The drama erupts, and the threads unravel and come together again, tangled now in completely different ways.
