Facts.
Misunderstandings left forgone.
Been blog hopping.
Then I stumbled upon some stuff.
This has been old and has been going on for sometime now. Felt like forever. I've always tried to fix things that just don't seem right to me. Guess I'm just bossy to have things my way, in that sense of the manner. Seeing what was said, I actually felt like I could do something about it.
Reason? ---Because after all, it was just a mere miscommunication, a misunderstanding. And definitely a wrong choice of words.
But then something held me back. [The title of that post.]
The whole thing was about something that person could not achieve, wanted but couldn't get.
I stopped to think, should I, or should I not?
It's hard to do. To close your eyes with your hands, so that your hands won't do things you didn't want it to. Maybe I should just let bygones be bygones. Then maybe perhaps maybe you won't be that miserable after all, seeing from what you've said, we were the reasons for your dismay. Maybe, after you've found your happy place, your happyland, then maybe I could finally tell you the truth of that misunderstanding.
But for now, your wishes are clear. -Not to have those people bothering you again.
I guess I shall respect your wish.
I'll have a whole essay to write now. Remembering the other memories I had. For the year 2010, I've lost a sum of friends. From heartbreaks, from suicides, from accidents. Way too many for me to just forget. So this is how I shall remember this one.
[cos now, it's finally official.]

There's always 'The Moral of A Story.'
Why was Snow White given a poisoned apple?
To show us that not everyone is gonna be kind and not everyone is really who they say they are.
Why did Cinderella run away at midnight?
To remind us that everything does have its limitations, even dreams.
Why did Ariel exchange her fins for feet?
To show us that people are willing to give up anything to be with who they love just being happy.
Why did Aurora sleep for 100 years?
To tell us that you might have to wait for quite some time for your true love to come along,
sometimes very long, but it's worth it.
Why did Princess Jasmine fall for Aladdin?
To let us know that what the heart wants, it wants it no matter what.
Why did Belle fall for the Beast?
To remind us that you can't really help what's on the outside,
but if the inside is beautiful, nothing can stand in the way of true love.
After all, inside every confident woman is a Fragile Princess waiting to be saved.
...and now we all know each moral of it. Which is kind of true.
This post I owe you.
Well, I guess from recent events and from the reactions, I can say that I've lost a friend.
Although this is not really OFFICIAL yet, but still...
Anyways, a tribute to X.M.
X.M has been a good friend, a good listener, adviser (although sometimes it's bias to some extend), and a joker. Never cease to crack us up, especially those who were especially down. Feeling the emo that others feel because you said that you could sense it. I guess you can. But sometimes it's just pretty obvious. Listening when no one listens. Spot those under the invisible cloak when they didn't want to be seen by others. Made delicious meals, and could pass as anyone's house-spouse. Being there, putting effort into understanding both sides. A lover who does not give up. Dear M.C, may you always cherish X.M., always.
Dear X.M., didn't get a chance to say this to you when you were here with me.
I'm sorry. Sorry for all the wrongs I did you which words made you teared up, which actions made you furious and emo. But I pray that the happy memories though not many, will always be with you. May they be butterflies around your flowerbed. Teddies to your sleeping bed. Wallpapers to your bedchambers. A frame to your headbed. For all it's worth, I pray you will at last be at peace. Finally without any one or anything to make you vex and everything you didn't want, God knows I knew what they were. It's never easy. But for everything now may you leave happily.

Christmas with People I love.
Christmas Eve & Christmas with people I love, was....... AWESOME!
Hadn't had that feeling of 'warmth' for a long time, even if it didn't turn out to be as perfect as any perfect plan would be. But it still did the trick for me at least. Carols and choirs just brings back memories. Happy and also sad. Ignoring the sad part now, this year, I've got a new memory to add to my Christmas memories. Presents aren't even close to what it is. It's you. My cloudy P. Night sky filled with stars, and sharing that with special people is what and how it feels like. Yes, yes, it rained tonight, so not much stars, but you get the idea. Anyways, I was suppose to be in bed like 2hours ago. Teehee! Don't tell mom!
So this is me signing off....
....with a smile on my face, a bigger smile in my heart. The shirt that sniffs of PPP, and kisses from you, you and you! I love you guys so much! Merry Christmas everyone!
(Sorry no pictures yet. Will try to take some tomorrow. *Hopefully*)
P/S: Kiss me under a mistletoe ♥

Facial Expressions.
Face;
...eyes, nose, mouth, rosy cheeks, dimple(s), pimple(s), facial hair, chin, forehead, whiskers, freckles, mole, eyebrow, veins, piercings, jaw.
Expression;
...feelings, a sign, a symptom, a style, all for the sake of communicating to you.
But, how well do you actually know these facial expressions?
From a frown to a smile? From a tear to one that's smeared?
From one's mouth being shaped like an "O", or curves facing either upward or downward or just a plain straight line?
Here are some samples of ........
Happiness, Anger, Surprise and Disgust.
You may be thinking,
'Blah, What the hell is this post about.'
or 'Lame. Even I know this crap!'
Well, you may or may not. Depending on how neutral or expressive your specimen may be.
But let me tell you of all the feelings which you portray as into facial expressions, there is one however that you won't know of unless the person is actually opening up to you.
........And that emotion/expression is 'hurt'.
........And that emotion/expression is 'hurt'.
Do you know why? Unlike the external hurts and cuts you get, you can actually see other symptoms which are indicators that it's not alright. For instant, inflammation from a cut or scratch, bruising, or oozing of blood. The person might go into shock from such experiences especially those really alarming ones. They may not tear, they may not scream and just give a simple decent 'ouch'. But you'll know that they're hurt and not okay.
The one hurt you cannot see, is the ones inside. They could be bleeding on the inside and you won't know it. Putting on poker-faces, changing the subject, sleeping in from a simple excuse of being sick. But deep down, those puffy eyes were from the night before where you poured your heart out. Those chapped lips were from those meals you missed because you didn't 'feel' like eating. Those bruises and cuts from falling down, were actually you, smashing things at night trying, exerting every ounce of anger, and pain you have to things which can't feel. All you wanted was to be numb again.
You say I'm no good at reading facial expressions. As the matter of fact, I am. Even more than you think you do. It's because those which people don't see, I see. And unless you're behind a computer screen with a mask on, then perhaps I'm wrong about what vibes I'm getting. But if you're not, then those mere 'LOL(s)' that you type aren't really you laughing them out loud.
This is what I'll mostly show you if you try to even say you do know me FULLSTOP.
You know you can't. And for those who don't understand this picture up here of John Cena. Well let me break it down to you in another simpler verson of it which basically carried the whole same thing.
Nope, still not. Not even close to near.

Girls.
Girls aren’t going to talk to you first. It’s a girl thing. We don’t like starting the conversation because we like to feel like you want to talk to us. We like to feel like the wait was worth something. We like feeling like you’ve waited for us like we’ve waited for you. But the number one reason we hate talking first is because we hate to seem needy or clingy. That’s why we’re scared. Cause to us, being needy and obsessive just pushes guys away. And no girl wants that.
Piano love.
First you must learn to play by the rules,
then you must forget the rules and play from your heart.
Penguin.
Only when you can't see me shall they shed. But as long as your eyes are locked, none shall be seen. Holding something so precious to you, I hope that one day you will come back to acquire it. Longing for the day it all began, and just so you know, it's the memory I remind myself everyday.
Please remember me.
Please come back.
I rarely make promises. But here's one for you.
You'll always have a place here.
Even if my heart's already crowded with all my loved ones.

The word 'Boob'.
The word "Boob" is the perfect word.
The B looks like an aerial view of them,
the 2 o's look like a front view,
and the b looks like a side view.
Mind=Blown
Weather and Emotions.
Facebook, Twitter and in blogs.
I see alot of people writing about how emo they are. Or how sad they feel in when it rains. I often wonder why is it? Why do people feel that way? Does the weather really have the capability to affect a person's emotions or thoughts? Is that even possible?
That may be so, but somehow the rain just gives me a calming feeling. I hate the heat of the sun, and love the rain because of it's majestic chills and how people can just stay home and cuddle, chat on the phone or just enjoy the awesome cool weather. Night rains are just the most awesomest, and especially on the weekend. Sleeping in because the air is so cool, that it's like being in an aircond room. Perhaps maybe the weather can affect someone's feelings, just maybe. Some statistics should be done if it is to be proven correlated.
But one thing's for sure, I love the rain.
Winter's night.
Sleepless night.
The wind, the rain; describes exactly how I feel now.
Feeling you can't imagine.
No words can be said to make this go away.
It's just you that's left.
The you that comes to aid my soul.
It's always torment without you near.
Times like this, you help speak my thoughts, feed my soul, and heal my heart.
The stomach-shaped you squeals.
It hurts. Pain is the only thing she recognises.
Even you're not near to quenching this thirst.
Just nothing's left.

Directions.
Today, I don't feel like putting signals.
Not left, Not right.
For those who can't see,
Just maybe the hazard light.
Feeling like I'm in at the fair.
Somewhere with mirrors everywhere.
Everything done is like a joke to everyone.
FTW clown.
Doing it all so deviantly,
but deep down I know you're not that funny.
So emodelicly ingenious.
You weren't lying saying that you're not putting on a mask.
Cos it's layer of make up that you apply.
Hiding all that sorry inside.
Painting yourself a smile.
When in reality, you're frowning.
And people can't even see it even if you're the main attraction.
I was once afraid of clowns.
But now I see that I'm one deep inside.
You can't see through me.
No you can't.
You don't even know when you're being fooled.
Twist and turned so much,
not even you, the victim, can see it.
Hurting only places where only I know.
Time for you to find out.

It takes guts.
Honestly, there are a lot of reckless drivers around. And well, this is something common, but problem is that where I'm at, it's becoming more and more severe. Well, it should not be put that the drivers aren't careful. Maybe they are, or maybe they're not. BUT one thing's for sure, they do have attitude problems. Attitude problem.
People want to be fast. Kiasu, perhaps? But their driving's costs others.
Can't they see that?
I'm not denying I'm a reckless driver, yet I'm not admitting to it either.
"We're all not good drivers because if we were,
we'd be in the tracks."
________(Alex Lee, 2010)
....instead of roads where people die trying to be racecar drivers.
[Alex, I cited you! No plagiarism here. =P]
I guess the way to solve this problem is for people to ADMIT that they were wrong or that they were not professional drivers and anything could happen at just any other cornering; even if they're not the one turning. When people start admitting that they are not professional drivers, then only from there can they start driving safe. Driving with their eyes and head on the road. Minding their attitudes at it too.
Be the lion to your fears. Roar them away.
It takes alot of courage to admit your wrong. So it figures that no one does it, on the other hand put up thick walls to mask all their errors. MAN UP to your mistakes. And no, this doesn't apply only to males cos it's written "man up", but it applies to everyone. Those who are at risk & risk taking.
Please think of others, your loved ones. If not, think for yourself at least.
Rules are made with their purposes. And not just because some people just can.
Some rules aren't meant to be broken.

Goodbye Lullaby.
Goodbye Lullaby; her latest new album.
Press conference: Yesterday, 7th Dec, 2010.
After an all-too lengthy and unintentional hiatus from music, punk-pop goddess.
Finally an album!
Can't wait to get my hands on one! (=
This ought to be good. Can't wait to listen and see the lyrics! Hmm, some deviantart going on here? Considering her divorce lately, she's in a wedding gown, barefooted. + The title of the album. Wonder if there's any coincidence there. But whatever it is, I hope this will be mindblowing considering the long wait.
2011, come quick!
