I’ve tried keeping away from horoscope readings because logically, they’re all contrived and prepackaged nonsense to somehow speak to everyone’s current emotional state. Yet whenever I read them, I tend go falter and go “Yes Yes, That’s Me Now!”

How is it possible that I want the worst for myself? Why do I recede into the tunnel when the light is just up ahead? Beginning to sense I have self-destructive tendencies.

Our office fish isn't doing so well...

Still my favourite Lady Gaga song. Have always thought it was very sensual.

Bad romance is great too... for it’s weird dance moves which I love to imitate.

Just ended another night(/marish) meeting at the East. The frustrations that work bring can render you so helpless sometimes. On one hand, you wish you could tell your clients what egotistical airheads they are; on the other, you have remain professional and humble and open minded and bend over backwards and let them poke you in the butt. Will it be easier if I try and accept criticisms better? But we have to fight for what we think is right too, don’t we? Our viewpoints are valid too, aren’t they?

I never thought I would end up working in the creative line. My visions  during and after Polytechnic were simply me in a cubicle doing some form of well-paying admin work with very little room for error. But now... it’s mayhem in the sense that I’m paid little and the rates of constant approval have dropped by about 50%. I NEED THE APPROVAL! My writer friend empathizes with me. She goes through the same firing rounds and knows it’s not easy facing rejection and redos and then finally gaining redemption when your work goes through. Cycle repeats.

On some days, I really do like what I do. Other days, it’s really tiring sometimes working on someone else’s agenda.

Where do we go from here?

I Still don't know much about anything at all. Everything feels so on-the-surface... My knowledge...experience...understanding... I don't know how a car engine works, how a pen works, why giraffes necks are so long, why people choose to be cruel, what is nice, zcvnmlpohfsgjdaw

Another insane mash up:

My Chemical Romance x Ace of Base (Pitch Perfect, anyone?)

This mashup is S.I.C.K.

Putting two vastly different songs together, yet they somehow complement each other’s beats, brings listening to a whole other dimension. Incredible.

It was a really long wait but I’ve paid my respects to the man who deserves nothing less. How touching it was, as I shuffled pass the priority queue at midnight, to see snaking lines of elderly citizens in wheelchairs. Despite the late hours and their inconveniences, they were there along with the rest of Singapore.

In all my hesitation and grumbles of having to be my friend’s bridesmaid, I forgot how privileged and fortunate I should be feeling - to have been asked to be a part of her big day on such a personal level. It was truly a lovely day of union between two wonderful people, and I wish them a lifetime as one.
