Falling From A Shooting Star...

It's been a while.

I wish i could say i've been looking down from a star. But i've been grounded. And landed hard have i on this fragile plot of land. Stripped of every dose of sanity and sense. Blinded by words and emotions that turn to dust in the sunlight. Taunted by paradoxes and contradictions.

The beats they transcend upon me like a current. I am taken into refuge; the alms of an invisible yet unbending force. I look up from the ground once again. And i remember.

Whichever way we choose to look at things, it should never stunt us from truly being and embracing.

I'm craving for some lamb chop.

Next Stop, Jupiter...

: )

I'm tired of the same lines, I think it's time to change the channel.
I think I almost gave up blogging. So much for that, here I am now. Hello.
Oh, it's exactly 2 weeks since beginning life at the 6th floor pool view; desert oil palm plantation for a landscape; and the orange couch a place to retire.
I see that some things will never be the same, ever; I bow and let the river take its course. I'm glad I found my bubbling euphoria again though. And love is a wonder like the grin of a Cheshire Cat.
I've been burying my head behind my National Geographic mags--can't get enough. My salvation is in the pages of a World History book. I know, I'm a bore. But I can't help it; my muse is dressed as a historian professor of some sort chanting the fields of anthropology, ancient civilization, geography, .....

"I smell rain". : )

I must say it's been depressing reading the news everyday. But it only serves to remind us the fractured reality of life. I sense a little humor though in life's little triviality.

Sha shrieks at a little tyrant redefining the meaning of boredom, "You, demon!"

Cheers mate! The pyramids of Giza await me =]

I need your vote!

Hey, peeps! I need your support...

JADED CUPID --Sketched a year ago...i've posted this on my blog before...reminiscent!

It got me too.

Bubbly.

7.27 pm - Another day : ) I passed my theory test for driving today--49/50! Ha-ha. I know it's just theory but at least I've surpassed the hassle of revising for the test which btw is a waste of time and money if i had to repeat!--2 things I can barely spare right now. So.

Work wasn't so bad today. The critique session helped a lot. Even though I had to re-do most of the work it was still good feedback. I'm getting gewd. Hee hee. Plus i'm starting to enjoy it more now that i know where i'm headed and which areas it is that i need to improve on.

I was zested from the test until now. Usually after work i'll head to the internet cafe which is family grounds while i wait for my ride home. Dinner was fun. The usual chuckle buddy, Girl, always lightens the load. I just love a dose of laughter :D And i can never go short with my beloveds : )

I haven't really been able to post an update other than my personal day-to-day rants.But hopefully soon I will--so keep checking! ; )

Lovely Lace.

8.O1 pm - Golly, what a day it has been : ) It's already more than a week into the new year and the days are anxious heartbeats. I've started working since a few days ago at my aunt's bridal shop. But i mostly deal with photo/video editing, photo album compilation, etc--not exactly what you might have had in mind since it's a bridal shop. But that's part of the package anyway.

*Gosh I'm so hating this sticky-keys-keyboard!* Anyway it's been good so far. Of course I'm not that hyped about having my a** glued to the chair all day and staring into the monitor for hours. But it's bearable for a month i guess. Besides I get to learn quite a lot from the whole experience. Oh, and what's a bridal shop without bridal dresses?? That's one of the things that keeps me alive working there--I'm surrounded by gorgeous wonderiffic dresses!

Every now and then when I get up to get the blood going again in my legs I'll start inspecting each one of the dresses. Sparkling beads, sensuous silk, satin and glazing velvet (!), sexy lace (damn, all my beloved fabrics!) and skilled motifs--the blood of inspiration just rushes through my veins *sigh* : )

I wish I could spill more but I'm running out of time (I'm at a cyber cafe btw). The upcoming posts will probably be writings mostly. No purpose really but to vent out and express, express!

Cheers!

Happy New Year 2OO8 !

Hello peeps! Hope y'all had a good end for the year 2OO7 : )

Life throws challenges at the very things you strive to change or attain

Sometimes we get caught up at 'arriving' we forget the 'journey'

Heartache and tears? Sure.
But nothing beats the light when you've known darkness

And with all the things we strive to attain, some things we may never know its worth 'till you've nothing left but to contemplate the hollowness that surrounds you

But really, let's not wait 'till ends wit to realize the true jewels in your life (!)

We could all do with a little whimsy and spontaneity in our life.... : )

Here's a final curtain for the year 2OO7...enjoy!

Bits and Pieces.

ReCreating perspective + meaning.



27.11.O7 - My muse is back. And she's brought back more than inspiration--I'm a knot of bubbling euphoria awaiting to materialize. Grand.
Creating+crafting+inventing.



Beauty...
It's in everyday
The little things
We see but never notice...

In the rugged edges of dreams awaiting
Lies a still faith
Unbound and untouchable
by men's ignorant hearts,
Who only seek refuge
in the value of solidity.

The Cherry Shades Revival.

. . . . . . . .I'm B A C K !

...urm, yeah....so i've heard the 'Update, update!' nagging voices....urm, yeah....

It's been such a long time since i've touched this blog! I could barely call my latest posts updates. Anyways i'm hoping this is. *wink wink*

This semester has been helluva hectic (like any other) but i quite enjoyed it. More work but i learned so much more as well...exploring new territories....mm...nice. College wise it's been good. Life overall--superb. Ha-ha, that's exaggerated. But with all its ups and downs the canvas of my life could not be more colorful than it already is =) Grateful i am.

What's sunshine without rain, huh?

And then you have those days where it pours when it rains;

Days when you're blissfully happy;

Days when you wished you were invisible;

Days when it starts to rain just when you put your over-sized shades on;

Days when you spill coffee on the one favorite blouse you decided to wear that day;

And after all that

Days where you just indulge in a perfectly warm cup of Darjeeling,
The sun is just right and you stare into the sky with your bumble-bee shades,
The breeze sweeps gently across your face
And you feel beautiful with all the imperfections as they are
Knowing that you are human too

Pick up that brush and paint your life to your design~*

I've got a couple of pictures of the past months' sparkles but unfortunately they're not in my hands--yet. So the next highlight would be non other than
C h r i s t m a s ! *can you hear the bells??*
These are just some of the pics i caught on the net that caught my gaze at first sight....
the lights. the ambience. the nostalgia. the warmth. the hugging splendor of familiarity. the forgotten blessings. ...can you feel me??

...more to come...
