Emo...Did you ever notice that there is always that particular line in that certain song that always stands out in that certain way? and reminds you of that one person you can’t forget.
It may not be that one song. It may be a few songs. Songs that were in a certain era and bring back memories. Happy or sad.
Today, I'm hooked on one song. A song without lyrics in fact. A song I've never heard and should never bring me any memories so to speak.
But then, somehow, I turned emo. Emo must be something I picked up from someone.
Holding people away from you, and denying yourself love, that doesn’t make you strong. If anything - it makes you weaker. Because you’re doing it out of fear. You have to take chances. You have to know when to let go and know when to hold on with everything you’ve got, and that’s what makes us who we are. Taking risks - that’s living, being too scared even to try; that’s just a waste. We all make alot of mistakes, but we shouldn’t regret things. Because at least we didn’t spend a life standing outside, wondering what living would be like.
Told you I was emo.

Rainy MemoriesIt rained today. Real heavy rain.
On my walk home, I took a deep breath. The after-rain freshness and cold wind.
And suddenly, I miss my home back in Tampines....

Those were the days...On a boring Saturday afternoon, I decided to take a bus ride home instead of walking. As the bus rode past my Primary & Secondary schools, I realised with a tinge, that I really missed those carefree days of yonder.
I
missed the days when we would play police and thieves or hopscotch in the Primary school court during recess and after school.
I
missed the days when we would walk home together after school, chasing each other like it's the best game ever to play.
I
missed the days when we would gatecrash at a friend's house to play Super Mario and Sonic all day.
I
missed the days when we would take out & enjoy all our titbits and games on the bus journey to those excursions like Haw Par Villa or Tang Dynasty.
I
missed the days when all 3 of us would squeeze together on one bus seat, singing the latest pop songs.
I
missed the days when we would take silly photographs of each other during those excursions.
I
missed the days when we would play UNO card games during P.E. lessons.
I
missed the days when we would loiter in shopping malls and take silly neoprints after school.
I
missed the days when we would walk from school with those heavy instruments on hand to the community centre opposite for Chinese Orchestra lessons.
I
missed the days when we would giggle like silly little gals whenever our favourite senior walked past.
I
missed the days when we would buy the same stuffs so that we could form a clique.
I
missed the days when talks of growing up seemed far far away.
I
missed the days when worries could be cast far far away because our parents would always be there to solve them.
And then I wonder, 10 years down the road, would I miss this bus journey home?

满足

其实, 我是个容易满足的女孩。
在大雨天, 享用一碗热腾腾的板面也足以让我感觉幸福。
幸福 就是这么简单。
