goodbye 2012...
2012 is one of the faster years i had ever been through.. as i waved goodbye to it and welcome 2013 (while watching fireworks on ch 5).. suddenly i feel very sad..
no idea why.. or maybe deep down i know why.. but just don't know how to explain it??
as i looked back at 2012.. i really have achieved nothing.. maybe this pang of sadness i'm feeling is.. "another year gone? and what have i accomplished??"
i didn't set any resolution for 2012.. purposely did so.. because i knew.. i couldn't have made them come through.. hate myself for that..
so on 1/1/2013.. i wanted to write this down.. to make the effort to change.. to LIVE.. not only in my fantasy..
one yr later.. will i come back n see this post and feel sad again?.....
i.... just don't want to regret.. because.. it's not guaranteed that tomorrow will come.. right?

suddenly have the urge to blog
actually have been having this urge for some while.. but just didn't find the time or effort to do it.. on mc today.. might as well? hurhur
been reading 1Q84 over the last weekend at msia.. after dropping it for like some time since i bought it.. only read that night after i bought it.. then it has been sitting in the kino plastic bag till i brought it to msia..
when reading it.. suddenly have this strong feeling of nostalgia.. kept thinking.. like when we were students.. how simple life was back then.. we only have to worry about homework.. n to a certain extent.. exams.. but the sad truth is.. time waits for noone.. as we wake up day after day.. even if nothing really happened.. our lives have advanced a day.. n slowly but surely.. u r leaving everything you thought was your world behind.. and in this world you are in now.. how r u fulfiling ur role in this world? is this the life you had imagined it would be??
rhetorical questions..
that's y.. they say u shldn't look back.. cos no matter how u crave how you desire.. those time past.. had passed.. you already missed the opportunity back then.. T.T when i look at those students now.. my cousins.. listened to my colleagues grousing about their kids.. it's like i'm an onlooker.. but no.. didn't i went through that before???? living as a student.. where life was so simple! there might be good times and bad times.. but eventually these times came to pass.. time just cant be turned back.. and i'm no longer the person i once was.. no matter how.. even if i could go back now.. i wouldn't be the same as me back then.. sure.. the fundamentals of the myself i believe in would retain.. but what is it that has changed? is it something called..
experience?
many thoughts in my mind.. but no answers..... well.. it wouldn't be called a life, without its share of mysteries? lol
ok.. back to the book.. hmmm.. how to describe it.. i really don't know.. even after reading like more than 2 thirds of it.. if u ask me what sort of book it is.. i won't be able to describe anyway.. i wouldn't called it a mystery, nor a thriller.. not quite a fantasy (not as what i would be inclined to think of it as).. love story? but.. the 2 main chars didn't quite meet till almost 900 pages of the book.. cant help but lost my patience and flipped to the almost ending part where they finally met.. =x
nt to say it is a book i definitely enjoyed alot.. the way it was written is not a style i identify with.. there's definitely no humor.. n it's descriptive almost to a fault.. but just have this strange attraction (?).. which makes u wanna quickly read from page to page.. cos u wanna find out how the story goes! just that.. i'm really way too impatient for it most of the time i skimmed through the passages to get through it.. hurhur..
enjoyed aomame's part more than tengo's too..
anyw.. think it's good i bought it to read.. shld get back to my old habit of reading.. even if it's bit by bit.. (:

nightmare~~
i dreamed of at least 2 scary dreams just now.. scaryyy~~
1st one is of vampires.. don't know why i had the dream.. but it was so vivid n super scary.. the location is at my ahgong house.. then dunno why my family tried to catch a vampire but fail end up need to stop the vampire from knowing we are in the house then close all the windows n dram the curtains to prevent them from coming in.. i had to force myself awake to stop dreaming about it.. scaryyy..
then after than there's a stupid bird keep chirping at my window there.. then i dreamed of the bird building a nest on top of my window.. then its kids(baby birds) keep dropping down to eat something that was scattered by someone(forgot who's the idiot) at the window ledge.. super disgusting.. the baby birds look like insects.. yuck.. but i also woke up half way.. lucky..
3rd dream! i dreamed i woke up.. then it's already 1+pm when i'm supposed to meet pot they all at 11am.. scare me la!! then i v ganjiong in the dream and then i convince myself it is a dream and go back to sleep.. then i really woke up n realised it's a dream.. hahaha.. sometimes bad things happen to you and you'll wish everything is only a dream.. but usually i only think that everything is a dream in my dream.. ok if anyone get what i mean.. haha
