Ride
Dad sent me to work this morning because my car is still his car.
It’s the first morning of the week in Brunei after a long weekend of Chinese New Year celebration, so roads were calm; a lot of people are still out celebrating. The ride to work was smooth with little traffic. We drove onward with the darkening sky above and the cool air circulating our environment; a cardigan nestled on my...

Voice
This is probably mega withdrawal, but I think that’s what you get for waiting for a television show to come back for so long and being spoiled by the outcome. Anyway, since last night, I’ve been listening to The Memoirs of Casanova’s audio book read by Benedict Cumberbatch.
I knew he’s a good voice actor judging by his hilarious imitations of Jonathan Ross and Alan...

His looming figure came closer, and I wanted so badly to jump him and feel the leathery six-pack of his uniform under my fingers, and I was hoping he wanted to kiss me until I lose my senses there and then, but instead, Batman looked at me and was like, “You have beautiful eyes.”
WHAT AM I DOING. SOMEONE STOP ME.

ALL OF THE AWARDS TO MARTIN FREEMAN
Every time Martin chokes up in The Reichenbach Fall, I cry. Guys, I cannot see a Hobbit cry. They party all night long and suddenly they’re crying and I feel a shift in the globe’s position. I have so many tears now all thanks to Martin. SOBS SOBS.

If you ever thought that Martin Freeman WASN’T the best person alive, watch this video.
I may have fallen in love with yet another actor.
I’m dying.
Holy shit this is great.

He is me minus the yelling out.
It’s so good to finally see this in context XD

What I think women meant when they use high heels...
“It hurts, but you know, not that bad. But it hurts, a lot, but you know, not as much as my other heels.”
“Disregard how you can see the cleavage of my toes are practically squishing against each other. The squishing part is fine. I’m sure I can get out of these shoes without having to use pliers.”
“It really hurts, but it’s so pretty and I have to buy...

Bzz... Bzz... Bzz...
Mum has an obsession with flowers, so naturally, our house is decorated with paintings of flowers, fake flowers, dry flowers, prints of roses everywhere, etc. Friends have even described our house looking similar to a “farm garden”.
I don’t know what a farm garden is, but it sounds lovely.
Mum’s current affinity is roses. It has been this for over six years now.
Before,...

Dad: *Coughs*
Us: WHY ARE YOU COUGHING? YOU SHOULDN'T BE COUGHING! ARE YOU OKAY?
Dad: *has a fever*

LiBRAries
I’ve been thinking a lot about reading lately, and libraries in general. I’ve been looking at a lot of photos of libraries because I get so sad whenever I pass by local libraries. So, photos of overseas libraries compensate for the depressing state of local ones.
Like, I wonder what do they really need to get an audience pulled in? Do they need nightly fireworks? Do they need actors...

I wish life has a 'like' button
It makes everything infinitely easier to express. If you like someone, you can just click a part of their body and et voilà!
Although I cannot imagine what it would be like if they don’t like you back. They’d probably literally lift you up and throw you into a trash can.

Hey, 2011,
You’ve been great. I’m not just saying that because it’s optimistic to make a year seem flowery, but seriously, you’ve been ridiculously awesome, and I loved basking in the emotions.
You allowed me to have the highest of up’s and the lowest of low’s, you’ve pushed me towards a house filled with laughters and pulled me through a labyrinth of...

What I think my children would say when they see...
“Man! Mama was so deep! Look at the quality of her writing when she was sixteen! That is teenage angst wrapped around poetry and dipped into, like, intense philosophical questions. Mama was so smart when she was sixteen. I hope I’ll be that smart!
And check out just how funny she is! God, she’s so funny! Now I know where I got the funny bone from! She listens to Punk Rock, and...

Overall, he told me that he loved me several times before I finally felt desperate enough and proposed him that we should get married in the future if everything in our life falls into the pit of shit.
But now, we don’t even talk, we don’t even acknowledge each other, and every other form of communication ends with a brutal fight that involves a lot of caps lock because it hurts;...

Ha, Ha, Ha.
My parents couldn’t stand it when they hear us laughing in our respective rooms. That’s difficult. There are two comedy nerds in this house. One occupies a large studio-esque space upstairs, near the stairs, where his laughter would echo through the narrow space of the stairs going downwards. The other occupies a large storeroom-esque threshold downstairs—my room—where my...
