I've deactivated Facebook and as of now, I'm going to abandon Twitter for a while. There are some things that I don't want to see. Until I'm 101% sure.

Update : I FAIL.

Today in iTunes.

Okay. So I wouldn't know why anyone would want to read a post about what I listened to today. To today. Doesn't that sound off? Oh well.

Further proof I need a life.

Maroon 5 - Infatuation. Sexy, sexy song :D 
Tiesto - In The Dark 
Supreme Team & Young Joon - 그땐 그땐 그땐 
The Sounds - Queen Of Apology [Patrick Stump Remix] 
The xx - Heart Skipped A Beat 
Miike Snow - The Wave 
Digitalism - 2 Hearts 
Bloc Party - Like Eating Glass 
Gavin DeGraw - Chariot 
Michael Bublé - I'll Be Home For Christmas 
Paolo Nutini - Loving You 
Joe Anderson - Happiness Is A Warm Gun 
Laidback Luke vs Steve Angello - Love Me Right [Hardwell Mix] 
Super Furry Animals - Hello Sunshine 
Friendly Fires - Strobe 
Sixpence None the Richer - The Lines of My Earth 
Muse - Sunburn Fiona Apple - Criminal

On the off chance that I become a criminal and the cops need to make some kind of a psychological profile for me, do tell them to look at my music folder. From what I can tell, I'm clearly schizophrenic with..clubbing-tendencies. Ugh. Clubs..

I wonder.

Now listening : Dario Marianelli - Dawn

I'm not sure how I feel about relationships anymore.
I've always questioned whether putting a label on things was an ordered requirement. Unlike most people I know, I don't see the necessity in attaching a label to a boy and a girl engaged in mutual interest. In another case, it isn't rare that I roll my eyes and mentally facepalm at the sight of anyone updating their FB with "Blah is in a relationship with BlahBlah". Maybe I'm too superstitious for my own good but personally, I think publicly letting people know is just a deathwish right there.

Publicity aside, is that type of affirmation really that important though? In retrospect, would my "love life" [Even saying this makes me cringe..ugh] have been remarkably different if say, I'd been more clear on my intentions earlier? Not saying that I didn't have my doubts at first, of course. But maybe if I stopped floating around and dragged us back to solid ground with a solid "I like you" or "I've fallen for you", maybe things would've turned out alright. What could've been the worst response anyway?

"I like you."
"I'm gay, I was just experimenting with you to see if I'm bisexual. I'm not, by the way. you were just a terrible kisser!"

"I like you."
"Fuck no."

"I've fallen for you."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHA........serious?"


I can't help but to wonder what is it that went wrong in both circumstances, sometimes. Within a span of year, it felt like I went through a tornado of flitting emotions with just two people. Oh wait, I DID. How did that happen? More importantly, what went wrong? Naturally, I looked at myself in blame at first. Maybe I was too spineless, too rude, too sensitive, too defensive, too clingy, suffocatingly caring. On the other hand, I had to admit, perhaps I was just too stubborn to admit I might have been played; terribly, twice. Pride denied me the permission to accept the fact that I was stupid, twice. For this, Ezri, you're probably going to lose completely the ability to love and become a robot. You're going to be doomed to roam this earth with your legion of German Shepherd puppies [I don't like cats] who'll end up deserting you anyway when a highly-probable zombie apocalypse happens. You can't die, you see. You are a heartless robot. You are not WALL-E.

Ugh. How unfair.

And then there's always the possibility that there was never anything wrong with them or me. Perhaps it's just not meant to be, period. Okay, obviously LAH.. [Mental voice just went ABUDEN?!] Nonetheless, do I really need to know the reason why? I've come a long way, I've come along fine; albeit terribly at first. Will a reason why feelings changed give me that final piece of closure I need? What good would that get me? Doubtlessness? I'm doing fine now, aren't I? Shaadddap, that was rhetorical.

Hell, what if I can't handle the actual truth? Oh yeah, you see what I did there :D
When I mean actual, I don't mean "I have problems.", I mean the hard-hitting truth that might just tie up all loose ends and give a closing chapter to an unfinished business.

Nahhh, I reckon I can handle it.. But I know for a fact that it's not something I'm going to receive anywhere in the near possible future. If anything, I'd be lucky if I even get any explanation at all. From the both of you. You with the girl, and you potentially with a girl. And maybe by the time I do, my German Shepherd puppy army would be with me, ready to unleash a can of ass-kicking on them.

Okay, I'm kidding.

I'll just let them pounce.

So, in all honesty..if I had been clear on my intentions and just went for the "I laaaiikkkkeee you.", would it have made a difference? Sigh. The answer's stuck at 'maybe' which isn't at all helpful. I guess I'll just have to wait for the next guy I fall for.

Hopefully, that'll be a long time from now.
I'm actually in a pretty damn fucking good position right now anyway. (;

A year.

Now listening : Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra - Passion [Instrumental Version]

Sooo....from the time I've gone to college, finished my course and came back to my sleepy little hometown, it's fair to say that my love for blogging has been greatly depreciated. Granted, it wasn't like I was blogging every other day before leaving anyway. Oops. Even the occasional whirlwind of posts usually just centered around Thoughts You Should Not Be Having At 4am and What I Say When I'm Over It and Why It's All-Too-Different From What I Actually Mean When I Say I'm Over It.


I have Alex's Just Like Me album on loop, it might be raining outside [Can't tell but for nostalgic effects sake, let's just say it's raining :D]

Ah yesssss, COLLEGE.. I kicked  all ounces of hometown laziness settling in to write a damn post detailing my fucking love life damn year in damn college. For any of you who might be wondering, I took up a Cambridge A-levels programme at KDU Penang. WHY PENANG, YOU LIVE IN IPPOOOOHHHHH!! I'll get to that later.

Details might be hazy, bear with me bear with me children and together we shall rule the world

AHA! I knew creating a separate folder for pictures in college would help me in the long run. *gleeful grin*



June 2011.
I moved into my dorm with no laptop during the first week. It was like someone pelting me with armed porcupines...and I'm drowning in nitric acid..and it's raining..acid..it's raining more acidic porcupines.. iDie.
Okay, that was a gross exaggeration. But boy that would be something, hmm? Oh yes, well..I had my phone, yay for smartphones! I remember my first night there, not wanting to go out for dinner because I was...alone...but my roommate Enowen [Don't ask] offered to buy me dinner. Economy rice ftw! Cherry and Christin offered to take me out to supper the next day, something of which to this day I'm grateful for. My first friend in college..I don't recall. I smiled at too many people ;) I met Jen, Jojo, Serene and to this day, they've been my closest friends in class save for the fact Serene ran off to KL to do IB. I love her nonetheless.. Claire, too. But you already knew that :D

July 2011.
I think..this was the month we went for karaoke and Bon Odori. It was pretty cool. I met Amzar when I didn't think it was possible to have someone have SO MANY FREAKING THINGS in common. Corona, Hoegaarden, lameass freestyle rapping! I met lovely Abigail this month too, through Claire. I doubt she's reading this, but I cannot go on without mentioning how much I love her. Thank you for all that you've done for me, and the things we've done and talked about together. I love you, MissAbi.

August, September and October 2011.
I should say that these months progressed quite the same way. Chemistry lab sessions, conversations about boys, bacon, alcohol, boobs, inadequate bra size etc. I met Nick and Chloe this month, if I'm not mistaken. Alcoholic buddies? I met Sasa too, what a darling of a girl, she has such a cool attitude.  Serene left this month, off to KL she went. I missed her terribly as she was one of those very few people who made that godawful decision to move to Penang worth it. She still is. In October, I celebrated my birthday in the most bland of fashion, I did get kidnapped by my sister though. Lol. Also, I got  /very/ drunk a few days after my birthday, proceeded to call someone and say "I hope you teached safely" I meant to say "reached"
I met Jason, Praveena and Karthee this month too.
AS commenced, let's not even go there.
I let go of someone who did not need me anymore. I'm glad he's happy now.


November 2011.
This was a month of fun? Frivolity? I should say so. This was the month exams ended, I went to the beach at 3am, watched the mass comm students' radio show (Talented bunch), got drunk-dialled for the 5th [??] time in my life, made a decision to "let go" and then got smacked by life saying "nyah nyah, I'm trolling you." Abi left this month :\

December 2011.
A2 STARTED BUT AHHHHHHHH CHRISTMAS CHRISTMAS CHRIIIISTTTMAS I MADE COOKIES I PLAYED MONOPOLY I GOT CLOSE TO PEOPLE I MISSED TIESTO I FELL FOR A GUY ON CHRISTMAS NIGHT I WENT TO LANGKAWI IT SUCKED IT SUCKED BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO GO BACK TO COLLEGE AFTER THE HOLIDAYS.


January 2012.
Twas a good month.I think this was the month I started talking to Sharis more. He is awesome.. One of those people I wouldn't mind going back to Penang for. Thank you for putting up with Miss Spineless, your Wiseassery is appreciated.  Also, please make a pizza for me! (:

February.
Hmm, let's just say this was the month that could be likened to those stormclouds you see and go "Oh shit, it's gonna be hell".

March and April.
ggaaaaarrrrrrgggggllleeeefdisfidfifdksfklajfdafdklfdsafad. BUT WOOHOO I DID WELL FOR TRIALS! Also, I met Clarissa. Awesome girl who gives awesome hugs!

May.
See, this was the month things HAD to get better. There wasn't any choice left. and it did. Of course, I did have my weak moments mostly due to my alcohol consumption.. but uhm, yes. things got better. I stopped expecting, and then I stopped hoping, and then I stopped altogether. We had our class farewell on the 31st. I left Penang on the 2nd of June. but I'm glad that I did try to spend as much time as I could with them.

Pictures!

 The Thai restaurant we went to for Serene and Tim's farewell. Tom Yam is epic win.

          
Abigail, Claire, and I. Claire does not look like a ghost..always.


   Miss Jessica Kok who visited me.
 
4am trips to beach.

Christin and I. This was among our other 5am endeavors.
During a dinner at Bon Appétit. Cherry, me, Chloe and Nicky.      


Clarissa, Amzar & Shafiq on the left.

I will miss her so freaking much.

Walking to Gurney at 1am. :D

Paragon at 3am. LOL.

"Jom sumbat."

Because I'm cool.

I....apologize for not updating this sorry excuse for a blog. Lots of things coming, including an unwarrantably long post on my year in college. Planning to give my blog some aesthetic enhancement as well. Onwards, to the HTML EDITING ROOM!
