48hours and it revamped. [Oct. 18th, 2009|08:07 pm]
it always hits me when i least expect it. at that very juncture, it felt like a movie rolling off in front of my eyes. i've been in this critical struggle attempting to swim out of that streamlined pool. i've always been baffled, scratching my head about why im planted in this river that's streamed towards pacific ocean instead of some course that could lead to a peaceful lake at the end of the day. 

perspectives.

my obvious futile attempts to migrate into a whole new world have been hitting on me. i always thought, so long you inject effort, you'll reap results. probably not proportionate but somehow or another, there'll be outputs. i've been oblivious to this consistent evolution that my environment has undergone. 

my challenge since forever, has been this overdosage of paranoia and thinking too much. at times i'd console myself that when some label ''thinking too much'' on me their train of thoughts have never brought them there. but well, who is to use their own yardsticks and their own tinted lenses to judge another?

accepting people for who they are, is still something i'm working on. the world is never a perfect residence. that's why i have to also learn, to let go easily. maybe i should first, learn how to hold onto things less tight. that might do the trick of easier release if it ever leaves me. 

no matter what, regardless of everything, i am apologetic for the persistence i had in this journey of entering a new world. i realised everyone has a place meant for them. accepting fate doesnt mean accepting defeat. 
this isnt an emotional moment. just reflections so far. i have wasted far too much time on attention seeking. far too much time on play beyond the lines. i did that, cos' i never comprehended the reason behind sticking to 1 characteristic brewed in you since young. 

oh well, life still goes on. the sun still rises tomorrow. i am still christine tan. i still am. 
i still love and embrace everyone who loves me. thanks =)

just for laughs [Sep. 22nd, 2009|12:39 pm]
[Current Mood | chipper]

 Customer:   Waiter, do you serve pigs?

Waiter:        Please sit down sir, we serve everyone.

Customer:   Waiter, is this a lamb chop or pork chop?
Waiter:        Can't you tell the difference by taste?
Customer:   No, I can't.
Waiter:        Then does it really matter?

Customer:   Waiter, there's a dead beetle in my soup.
Waiter:        Yes sir, they are not very good swimmers.

Customer:   Waiter, there's a fly in my soup.
Waiter:        That's all right sir, he won't drink much.

Customer:   Waiter, there's a fly swimming in my soup.
Waiter:        So what do you expect me to do, call a lifeguard?

Customer:   Waiter, what's the meaning of this fly in my tea up?
Waiter:        I wouldn't know sir, I'm a waiter, not a fortune teller.

Customer:   Waiter, this soup tastes funny.
Waiter:        Funny?  But then why aren't you laughing?

 

Waiter:        I've stewed liver, boiled tongue and frog's leg.
Customer:   Don't tell me your problems. Give the menu card.

1st thief:     Oh ! The police is here. Quick! Jump out of the window!
2nd thief:    But this is the 13th floor.
1st thief:     Hurry! this is no time for superstitions.

我不介意等你6年。

我会等。

secretly the weekly dosage is for mental release from hereditary stress
and of course, i guess everyone forgot.
its due to that pain that hasnt subsided since forever. its us on that bridge 2 years ago.
it still aches. yes it does. its coming 3 years.
how?
what should i do?
someone offer a suggestion.
time should be the healing pill here
but its not working on me. how? 
how now?
what if i am still at the same spot missing the same person after 5years?
how?

好久不见。 [Sep. 5th, 2009|11:08 am]
[Current Mood | cold]




我来到 你的城市
走过你来时的路 
想像着 没我的日子
你是怎样的孤独 
拿着你 给的照片
熟悉的那一条街 
只是没了你的画面
我们回不到那天 
 
你会不会忽然的出现 
在街角的咖啡店 
我会带着笑脸 挥手寒喧 
和你 坐着聊聊天 
 
我多么想和你见一面 
看看你最近改变 
不再去说从前 只是寒喧 
对你说一句 只是说一句
好久不见 
拿着你 给的照片
熟悉的那一条街 
只是没了你的画面
我们回不到那天 
 
你会不会忽然的出现 
在街角的咖啡店 
我会带着笑脸 挥手寒喧 
和你 坐着聊聊天 
 
我多么想和你见一面 
看看你最近改变 
不再去说从前 只是寒喧 
对你说一句 只是说一句
好久不见

i deem you 'useless', tanyehching [Sep. 5th, 2009|01:50 am]
[Current Mood | bored]

 qad asked if i was craving for a bf or a fling tonight
i confidently said no. 
nothing against my conscience
i really dont need any. in fact, one'd appear too superfluous. 

actually, i only realised by now, that i only need him. this is not an emo moment. at least, i am clear of what i want. nobody else's suitable enough to replace him. 
like what dee thinks of bob the builder, 
hes irreplacable. 
im not holding on tight to the past. its just how he made a significant an impact on you that you conclude without hesitation, you dont need any further impacts.

like how confident quek was despite xara's persistent chantings of 'what if better choices came along'.. 
quek simply retorted xara with a statement reading ' hes good enough (: i dont need anyone else'

thats what i feel. hes prolly never up to mark in anyone else's eyes. perhaps even my materialistic lenses. but yes he was the best i ever had through my heart. 

he still is. even though he is already part of someone else's storylines.

goodnight world. goodnight. bonne nuit.

immunity [Sep. 2nd, 2009|12:01 pm]
[Current Mood | apathetic]

as strong as i portray, as past caring as i might seem, i suppose i am still human.
i presume i still have that tad' bit of emotions streaming within me.
so that makes me flesh and blood.
and that equates to a reaction when anything negative or harmful is thrown to me, right?

but i was permitted to react. ha!
what kind of weird relationship this is? 

ahhhh. this is what we call the dong dong chiang style. my girls'd understand what i am trying to say. no exaggeration this time. even that foreigner in my house noticed it. hahaha. this is amusing (:

what's even better to top it off when you get a foreigner asking you innocently why you receive differential treatment totally?
haha! beats me.

ask God.
God knows.

its okay! what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger! when the going gets tough, the tough gets going! 


Acceptance is not submission; it is acknowledgement of the facts of a situation.

secondary school girls' gathering. [Aug. 26th, 2009|10:12 pm]
[Current Mood | bouncy]

not mine, it's my mum's secondary school gathering. haha! sounds pretty far off i guess. and it wasnt a gathering organised to catch up. it was one of her girls' son's 21st birthday party.
oh my. getting further.
his clique of friends, though only a year apart, felt as if i was 5years older. it felt like they were all born in the 1990s.

met joyce for lunch today. miss that darling so much. its been so long. thank god we didnt start our washing machine tubes chat and the running notes we had.

look, will we have such a gathering at 45 years of age to think back and gasp when you see your friend's daughter resembling your friend during her younger days?
thats the most common "OMG!she looks like you!" i heard through the whole evening.  haha!
maybe i should grow fatter cos the aunties said, fatter or pimple-y faces apparently have no wrinkles! :D

many people would want to ride the limosine with you.

it was never easy, to be me. [Aug. 12th, 2009|11:58 pm]
[Current Mood | tired]

if only fisherman was around. he'd know what to do. i just detest this 'breathing down my neck' feeling. i need some space. yet its asif i dont deserve any. only if fisherman was around, he'd tell me everything's cool. he'd really be that pillar for any rubbish that's running down my neck.

if only fisherman's here. 
if only.
