Gloaming

Sunday 17 February 2013



[in which some angst surfaces]

This is the view from my bedroom window as time quickly approaches 7.23pm
The sun is setting
and the sky is a washed out blue.

Right before the sun sets there's a moment when the whole sky goes this pale nothing colour-
not really grey but sort of, sort of white, 
and I've always really liked it because it reminds me of waiting for something really good to happen.
- Lauren Oliver

Sunsets aren't hopeful
especially not today
a Sunday
when I know what's in store in the next five days ahead.

Dusk is the end of a day
the end to another day that I could have made extraordinary
I could have done something worthwhile
instead I mindlessly flick through my Instagram photos
and read stupid tweets

Could have done.
But it is now the end of that opportunity
there is nothing I can do now.
Tonight I will lay in bed and think,
yes. Tomorrow I will do this. 
I have big dreams at night.
I dream of projects and plans that are constructed 
bit by bit, night by night
but nothing ever gets done.

It is time again, 7.23
Time for the guilt
for not doing the things I said I would do

Tomorrow I will wake up
and tomorrow dusk will come again.
Maybe something will get done.

ALSO, CAN I JUST SAY IUERINUFEWOEWIOEWIONCOWWIXDJ3IEUTHNCJF!!1!1!!

Tuesday 12 February 2013

It was really really fun taking photos of cny stuff, and while I was editing photos the sun was setting and pretty light was streaming into my room, hence MORE PHOTTOSSSS.

 "Mikaela don't climb! You will fall down!" No.

 Story behind the lion: After Saturday's reunion lunch at Ngee Ann, my aunt and uncle and my other aunt and uncle brought Mikaela to the toy shop on the fifth floor (near Art Friend), then they saw this huge lion and Mikaela was like, "uncwuh ching chong I wan lion." Then my uncle was like, "oh, yah yah I buy for you la." (jokingly). Then my aunts were like, "you realise that once you've made a promise to her she'll never forget right". So then later that afternoon after Mikaela's nap, my aunt sent a track to my uncle: "uncwuh ching chong I wan lion." in her after-nap dazed voice HAHAHAHA. So then he was obliged to go and buy it for her from the super expensive toy shop (although the smaller version).
