let you go...

I took this photo of the sky one morning while going to school.

When i first looked at it out of the window, it didn't seem much to me.

But as i begin to admire the beauty of the sky, thought come rushing into my head.

The more i look at it, the more i feel up-lifted...

Its like all the elements were just perfect for that view,

so i quickly took out my phone and captured the image before my dad drove off...

You'll never know what tomorrow brings.

Whether good or bad things happen, we all still gotta face up to it.

Good things, embrace it; bad things, defeat it.

No matter what life throws at us, we must face up to it courageously.

Sometimes, things may be too hard to handle,

but if we could just look at it from another perspective,

we'll find that there's this silver lining lying around somewhere,

waiting to be discovered and help...

Whatever the case is, it will still be the same thing,

no matter which angle we look at it from.

Things may appear tough,

but remove the shades called "Negativity" and all that it encompasses and you'll see things differently...

Its just like the sky over our heads...

Wherever you look at it from, it still looks the same (except for the position of the clouds maybe...)

It may look like its gonna be a thunderstorm from one angle,

but it may actually be the gift of life from another...

So, to my friend who appears hard on the outside but has a softer inside,
I hope you'll feel enlightened after reading this (if you do come to this blog, that is...)
take a break, look at things differently and break that vicious emo-cycle...
Who knows, you may just find your silver lining in the clouds!

Anyways, this is something which just came to my mind when i woke up just 30 mins ago...

Sometimes, its scary to see the people around you change over time...

But, its even scarier to realised that you yourself have changed as well...

Some may call it maturation,

but I call it, conforming to the pressures of life.

Time, is such a selfish person;

It is always speeding ahead, never waiting for others...

In its wake, it leaves memories,

And once in a while, when you catch up with it, it hits you with those memories...

I've just been hit by Time not too long ago,

And what I feel is not pain, but regrets...

Amazing, isn't it?

At such an age, I can have so many regrets...

I guess I'll just have to continue running,

Since a lowly me can't really do anything about it...

But i swear the next time i catch up to Time,

I'm so gonna punch it in the Face...

coming back from the Esplanade to my house,

being deep in thought that i almost got run down by a car...

i've come to realise,

that i've been lying to myself all along...

seeing so many things, i ask myself,

"Who am I? What do I want?"

These questions seem easy to answer,

but i can't seem to answer them...

i dream of the impossible,

yet i'm unable to accomplish those possible...

where do i stand..?

Whoa, its about 1 month plus since i've updated my blog...
Lolz, this shows how much time we DO NOT have for small things like this. :p

Its now close to half of the school term till the BIG 'A's...
Big commitments are slowly letting themselves off my shoulders one by one...
Guitar concert was quite a success,
even though deep within me i know, as a performer, it was not a very good one...
But nevertheless, thats one hell of a load off my chest...
So i just wanna say, well done to all those who have put in effort to make this concert a success.
And Thank You all, especially to the AJ Guitar Ensemble EXCO members! You guys rock!

Looking out at the late night sky these few days,
brings many many thoughts into my mind...
The nighttime sky changes every night...
Never once has it been the exact same one everytime i look out the window before i go to sleep...

With time, as the earth rotates and the sky changes, so do people...
But unlike the cool and calming nighttime sky, the changes in people can be drastic and scary sometimes...
The good thing about seeing people all the time for the long time is that one can come to a realization of change.
The change of one's physical environment, one's perception of things, one's friends, and one's sudden awakening.

However, there is a consequence to this realization.
And that is the realization of the truth behind the curtain of enlightenment...
Behind those nice words, tone and smiles,
hide the manifestations of the 7 sins that Pandora released...
Only then do one see the real ugly side of human nature...

It is truly, very unpleasant to see...
But without it, there will not be a balance,
and that is why Nature kept them for so long...
When there's light, there's dark; yin and yang; good and evil...

So no matter how much one can hate or oppose,
such evil will still exist in this world we all share...
No matter how much they leech off everyone else and put on facades,
like pests, they cannot be totally eradicated...
Hence, we all have no choice but to live with them...
And sadly, the only thing we can do it just watch them steal everything that others work for and believe in,
all just for their own benefit...

What a cruel world this is...
