“Despite all the things we all experience, like heartbreak and pain, it takes being able to get through it to realize the beauty of life. All the negative makes you realize the things that matter. It puts the petty things in perspective.” Jason Peters

Soul mates?
I know I know, too many questions, I just don't have the answers so Blogging is the next best thing.
What do you think? How do you feel about the whole 'soul mate' idea?
I will admit when it comes to love I can be cynical, but can you blame me? In a world where chivalry is almost dead, where men and women cheat, and where the Good guy always ends up with the bad girl and vice versa.
It seems in the cases of love, heartbreak is just around the corner, and you need to get your heartbroken at least once and then the 'right' guy comes along...
I don't know what I am trying to say here .. to many random thoughts going through my head.
Ah well another random post, it is starting to become a habit. Well at least I'm blogging again...

Going to the Movies Alone
But right now, I don't like this feeling of loneliness. I never said this or even dared to think of it; but right now I feel alone and I don't want to be ...
Yes I know that is such an obvious statement but anyone who knows me, would never expect me to say it, but I think I had enough time on my own right now, I thought of everything, I tried to sort out my life, I had movie/TV marathons and a few minutes ago I was contemplating going to the cinema alone and that is when I realized I had hit a new low.
So what is the point of this post you may think or ask, I have no idea! All I know right now is that I am alone, I feel lonely and I would really like to have someone right here with me.
Note: My sister and cousin left a 2 days ago so it has gotten really quite round the flat and I guess that's why this is hitting me hard.
Another note: I know this is the most random post ever, but I felt the need to write this ...

I'm here I'm not here
The reason I can't erase this blog permanently is that it caries a special part of me and I enjoy writing about all the random stuff in my life. My thoughts and my feelings, it's like a form of release, but right now I can't bring myself to write anything even though I have got so much to write about.
Maybe I am in a rut, I don't know whatsup with me, hopefully I can get out of this rut soon because I do miss blogging.
I know this blog doesn't make any sense and it's so random and pointless but hey at least it is a start.

Bad News
We say our hello's and how are you's and your voice becomes slightly shaky.
I can tell immediately that something's up.
I ask you what's wrong, you become quiet.
I start to panic, my breathing shortens, I plead you to just tell me, but you remain silent.
I am almost in tears, and you say it.
You deliver the bad news, and I break into tiny little pieces ....

My bestfriend
I know I know I post a lot of posts dedicated to people, especially on 'birthdays' :P but I can't help it!
HOWEVER this is actually a continuation of one of my early posts called 'I miss you'.
You see I thought I lost a friend, but I didn't she was right there, waiting for me =)
It is funny how things easily change, how one minute you inseparable and the next you hardly speak to each other and then everything is back to normal, life can be so fickle like that.
ANYWAY this goes out to you A*
You're my one and only,
You're my dearest,
You're my girl,
You're my rock and I LOVE YOU.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABES
of course I had to post our 'song'
ahhh school days! hahahaha crazy times :P
Friday, 14 January 2011
I'm a fool to want you
I love the classics, and Billie Holiday is definitely one of my favourites and after seeing the Chanel advert this song has been stuck in my head.
and since I am already posting songs, here is the amazing Etta James with 'At Last'
And last but most certainly not least here is Ella Fitzgerlad with 'Cry me a River'
No one, in the day and age, can make music as elegant and classy as this.

Saying the truth isn't always the best option ..
I know it is bad, but I just can never have the guts to say anything, I am afraid. I know it is such a silly thing to be afraid of but I can't help it.
Now I will just be quiet and watch helplessly and just pray that things work out themselves.
One thing I know if things do go too far, I'll have to 'man' up and say something, but till then, I'll just be a watcher.

SO for that is it, I can't really think of anything to say, hope you all had an amazing new years eve =)

Life after Death
When people think of death the first and most normal thought is death of a person. Losing someone forever. Then they think death of another type of living organism, be it an animal, plant or anything else.
Here is a different way of looking at it, death of a relationship; death of a friendship. OK so I admit ‘death of a friendship’ does sound different and strange, but as I was sitting in my lecture (suppose to be paying attention but the lecturer was so boring I drifted off to my wonderland) I thought that a relationship between two friends is like a living thing on its own, you feed it by love and attention. So much effort from both ends needs to be put, and with neglect or some ‘disease’ it can easily die.
It happens, to everyone, at some time of their life. To some people it happens more often than others.
An example of it from a first person point of view:
I tried to hold what little love we had for each other. I wasn’t ready to say goodbye. I couldn’t believe it could happen this easily. People look onwards and I feel them pitying us. All ready to give us condolences.
But I just wasn’t ready. I wasn’t going to give up without a fight and so I did just that. But you, you lost all faith. You easily let go and gave up, just like that.
I guess that’s what hurt me the most. And so before I knew it, the day came. We were just no longer friends, our friendship and love for each other died.
The undertaker took it away swiftly and then I was left alone in the dark. I was cold, and upset. I couldn’t cry anymore for all my tears dried up. I just stood there, in the darkness not knowing what to expect, and then in the distance I saw something. It was just a flicker at first, but then I got closer to it and saw some light, alas, my world of darkness has found its light and with that a new friendship has formed. It was indeed life after death.

So why is everyone getting married so young?
It's so weired and different and I don't know how it's happening. I already know two people, who are very close to me, and they are just 19 and 21 years old and they are getting married soon. Like next year which is just insane!
So what's the reason? Well most probably love, you know, they are just so in love and want to get married ASAP and want to do things the '7alal' way so their resort is marriage.
I guess they don't realise what a serious matter it is. I mean don't get me wrong, I am not saying that no one should get married at a young age, I am just saying that people shouldn't rush into it and realise what a great responsibility marriage is.
What do you think?
