My Inner Jane Austen

Writing is one way to unleash my Inner Jane Austen.

"And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt." ~Sylvia Plath

"Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self." ----Cyril Connolly

all that jazz!

Its been quite long since I “really” blogged……Actually my last entry were I really put all my thoughts into words were last month. So why not make a list of the things that’s been happening and happened to me for the past 3 weeks or so. Here it goes:

1. Celebrated my Christmas and New Year here in Singapore for the 2nd time. Last holiday made me think all the important things and situations in my life right now. I am truly blessed and grateful that I have family, friends, co-workers that always believes in me no matter what. And I have GOD with me all the way, I know that HE will always guide and bless me :), Thank YOU BIG BOSS!

2.  Started my new Year in a not really good way, but whatever has been thrown to me I will just keep on pushing.

3. Birthday blues. A week before my birthday, I was in a not so good mood, well actually I felt sad and super down that there is a time when I cant hold it anymore and I just release everything that’s been bothering me. I CRIED:’(. I cannot just tell you why because the topic is too sensitive for me and honestly I am so darn tired of thinking about it, I really do. I just pray that everything will be okay and Im still hoping for a better future, but as the time goes by all my hopes are fading away…which is really scary cause it makes me more and more bitter.

4. Friday the 13th. This day is special to me. Its my birthday! I turned 28. Yes Im old, I know! Before my birthday I prayed that on my day I will have lots of fun. And yes, I am not expecting it all, but I did have a blast. My friends are really superb they made my birthday so nice and memorable. Same goes to my family who even bought a cake for me, even if they are miles, and miles away from me.

5. Chinese New Year long weekend holiday. Two words to describe what happened to me during CNY, LAZY and FAT. Yep I’ve been a couch potato for four freaking days and I put on weight. All  because of ” eat, sleep, watch movie, eat, sleep, watch movie and yes EAT again routine. Seriously now I am more conscious on my weight that I have to be careful cause honestly heallth is really important (its not a cliche to me anymore.) Now Im doing zumba and just started on an 8 minute stomach flattening exercise. Im hoping that it will pay off. Now all I have to do is to control my food intake, I mean eat but less. But there is also one thing that I love about CNY, the angbao and sweet oranges that I received from my colleagues. Gong Xi, Gong Xi!

6. Im writing this blog

7. Still waiting on what will happen to me. Im hoping that this year will bring me good health and career. I hope to finish my course too by the end of the year or the beginning of 2013, happy family, friends and colleagues and last but not the least my zero lovelife which I hope to bloom (but again I dont want to put a high hope on this one, since the word “love, boyfriend and marriage” is a topic that is “reserved” for now.)

A kick ass movie (that’s for sure) plus Captain America is hot!

I cant wait to see this movie!

13 is the magic number :)

13 is the magic number, 28 is a new beginning :)

SOULMATE- NATASHA BEDINGFIELD

Incompatible, it don’t matter though
‘cos someone’s bound to hear my cry
Speak out if you do
You’re not easy to find

Is it possible Mr. Loveable
Is already in my life?
Right in front of me
Or maybe you’re in disguise

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I’m on my own
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

Here we are again, circles never end
How do I find the perfect fit
There’s enough for everyone
But I’m still waiting in line

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I’m on my own
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

If there’s a soulmate for everyone

Most relationships seem so transitory
They’re all good but not the permanent one

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I’m on my own
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

Who doesn’t long for someone to hold
Who knows how to love you without being told
Somebody tell me why I’m on my own
If there’s a soulmate for everyone
If there’s a soulmate for everyone

The Holiday

I am still on my holiday mood, will not be over t until I say HAPPY NEW YEAR, WELCOME 2012. So today has been a productive one for me, working at house and running some errands before going back to work tomorrow. This afternoon I just happen to watch The Holiday well again….. I dont know why but this film made me realize loads of things in life especially when it comes to love. And this so far is my favourite beginning of the movie line:

I’ve found almost everything ever written about love to be true. Shakespeare said “Journeys end in lovers meeting.” What an extraordinary thought. Personally, I have not experienced anything remotely close to that, but I am more than willing to believe Shakespeare had. I suppose I think about love more than anyone really should. I am constantly amazed by its sheer power to alter and define our lives. It was Shakespeare who also said “love is blind”. Now that is something I know to be true. For some quite inexplicably, love fades; for others love is simply lost. But then of course love can also be found, even if just for the night. And then, there’s another kind of love: the cruelest kind. The one that almost kills its victims. Its called unrequited love. Of that I am an expert. Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other. But what about the rest of us? What about our stories, those of us who fall in love alone? We are the victims of the one sided affair. We are the cursed of the loved ones. We are the unloved ones, the walking wounded. The handicapped without the advantage of a great parking space! Yes, you are looking at one such individual. And I have willingly loved that man for over three miserable years! The absolute worst years of my life! The worst Christmas’, the worst Birthday’s, New Years Eve’s brought in by tears and valium. These years that I have been in love have been the darkest days of my life. All because I’ve been cursed by being in love with a man who does not and will not love me back. Oh god, just the sight of him! Heart pounding! Throat thickening! Absolutely can’t swallow! All the usual symptoms. ———-Iris (Kate Winslet)
