I see a little hint of light, the little motivation I have been looking for.

5 weeks to Christmas, and I’m counting down. Yep, even though I’m not a Christian…Cos I love the smell, the sight, the touch, the taste and the sound of Christmas.

And probably because it almost marks the end of the year, when you can pat yourself on the shoulders and go phew.. This year has been a crazy year with lotsa excitement packed in the beginning, and then came the withdrawal symptoms from the fun, the little heart ache, the workload.

So yes, I’m looking forward to Christmas, a season of sugar, spice and everything nice…

Psst. I was looking throught this briefly, and I think you should too. –1000 Awesome things

Mind over body 16 November, 2009

For this week, I will be a true-believer of the Placebo effect.
I will be motivated. I will work. And I will thrive.

*whip whip* work it, Jaslin.

3.50am. Sunday morning. 15 November, 2009

I’m finding it hard to breathe. But I’ll try.
When I have more than school on my mind, it’s difficult.

I need a shoulder to cry on. A little some time ago.
I hope people are more than the mistakes they make.

And I still hope that one day, I’ll find someone who’ll teach me how to trust and love wholeheartedly again.

Reminiscing Italty 13 November, 2009

I’m suppose to be doing my work. But I got caught up with all the pictures I took in Italy.

The breath-taking beauty of the place can’t be justified through pictures.

The love they have for life, for food, for love.

La dolce vita.

And so it is 13 November, 2009

..just like it would be.

The last day of class. The calm before the next storm (read: exams).
But it was good.
The company, the laughter.

And the best mod of my uni life thus far.

Supermassive black hole 10 November, 2009

I long to lie under the cover of night sky.
Watching the stars.
Without a care.

Just so you know 10 November, 2009

I would love to greet you when I see you.
But there’s one thing holding me back– the company you keep.

If it’s true that you’re the company you keep, I have to say I’m far from being impressed.

And after what happned last night, I guess it jolted me back to realities. To rethink about priorities.

Psst. If I look tired and distracted, please pardon me. These days have been crazy. Especially last night.

Phew 10 November, 2009

The sleepless night was worth the while. =)

Love for life 10 November, 2009

Spending time over lunch with 2 of my favourite people, just laughing at random silly stuff, sipping ice-cold milk tea under crazy air-conditioning and the heavy downpour outside made me very contented.

The visit to the make-up counters helped make me smiley (eh, make-up is an art, and I need colours for inspiration; and it’s my personal belief that besides education, skincare is the next best personal investment).

Painting my nails in the fierce red (erm, yes..again) made me feel more empowered.

I cry. I hate. I confront. I defy. I smile. I laugh. I love. I conquer.
I can never deny that I’m dramatic.
And that’s how I show my love for life. So, what you see, is what you get. No time for little games, I’m afraid.

Psst. I think this is quite sexy. Click at your own risk…kidding. The song ain’t impressive, but some of the girls are smoking hot.

Dance with my father 9 November, 2009

I was mindlessly listening to Luther Vandross’s “Dance with my father”.
It sudden hit upon me that was quite a perfect moment, no need for elaborate ambience, no need for pretentious company and topics for conversations.
