pieces of here and there

so, as recommended by fellow blogger and high school buddy Rena, im making this list of bests of 2010:

best books:
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky
- The Picture of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
- The Winner Stands Alone - Paulo Coelho

Basically, Oscar Wilde is a brilliant, brilliant writer. I'm so lucky i found him this year.

best movies:
- (500) Days of Summer
- Inception
- Harry Poter and the Deathly Hallows

(500) days of summer is just really unique. i love it.

best songs:
- Weightless - All Time Low
- She's A Genius - Jet
- Iris - Goo Goo Dolls

okay honestly, i like many of ATL's songs this year. And there are many other songs that should have been put up there, but each of those songs have a special meaning to me :)

best moments of 2010:
- turning 17
- graduating highschool, prom, farewells,
- good times hanging out with my friends and owen :)

best random moments of 2010:
- going to Melbourne, going through some silly stuff (one of them is falling on my knees and getting injured for a month -__-), meeting crazy friends, became friends with real coffee
- the madness of EAP 3B, Frank, and Mark
- talking about the most random things imaginable in the middle of the night.

best quotes:
- i'm wasting time, but you're wasting lies. -- All Time Low's Break Your Little Heart.
- ... remain, as i do, incomprehensible; to be great is to be misunderstood. -- Oscar Wilde
- the mind of man is capable of anything -because everything is in it, all the past as well as the future.     --  Joseph Conrad.


2011, however, has begun with a series of screwups.

11.01.11 is a very beautiful date to have a birthday on, but it was pretty much the worst birthday yet.

this week, the sky has been very melancholic.. it cries everyday, almost the whole day, except this afternoon. and this brought everyone to their saturnine mood. not to mention the pressure of the exams that are coming in 3 days.


and you. furiously pounding this wall you built, wondering where the hell did i go wrong after all that, wishing that i'm still more than just a stranger to you.

is it really my fault for not knowing?

i wish i can turn back those 30 minutes that suddenly changed everything.

you must be very proud, aren't you, hiding behind this cloak of unpredictability?
i wonder why i get attached to byronic heroes.
you know my weaknesses. stop using them against me. i've waved the freaking white flag. stop pretending to be blind.

how am i supposed to react?
