In a daze and look where it got me? 

I'm lusting~

In my wraith, I hold them.....in my own rhapsody

Hey, a girl can always dream right? 

And those dreams are MINE :)

Single

"I'm single"

I used to say that with such anguish and melancholy. It's amazing how a phrase like that could easily make you feel so alone and deserted. I used to feel so empty whenever the thought even invades my mind.

"I'm single"

Now, I say it with such ease and a sense of complacency. I say it blithely and full of self-admiration. Whenever the thought crosses my mind, another prospect turns up that makes me smile (let's not disclose that shall we? :P)

"Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you're pretty sexy and you're taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with." - Carrie Bradshaw

It's not a status anymore. It's a way of celebrating your life and your independence. I have always been independent but now, I'm actually emotionally independent. For that I am thankful and blessed....let's face it, it wasn't easy to overcome the sense of need and compulsion to be loved by that one significant other, especially after so long. So now, I'm celebrating my single life with whomever and however I WANT! And what about the other perks of being single? I'm truly loving it!!

• You can do whatever you want (whatever you want...)
• No need to deal with anyone's bad moods and split personality dramas
• Just get the juice/cheese/toilet papaer/videos/CDs/take-out that you want!
• There is no one putting you on a tiny pedestal that you can fall off of at any moment, unless you are focusing on your balance all day long
• You don't have to stroke the fragile male ego, and other things.
• No more checking with someone to see if 'it's okay' to tell someone yes or no to an invitation. You can accept on the spot.
• You don't have to do laundry because he has no clean socks.
• You can eat garlic or onions without a second thought about breath mints. (unless you haf a hawt date of course...hahaha)
• You don't have to worry if he will or won't call
•  You don't have to give yourself lame excuses for not devoting time to yourself
•  No more arguments about things you can't explain
•  You can be happy with who you are, not who he wants you to be 

 "You do not need to be loved, not at the cost of yourself. The single relationship that is truly central and crucial in a life is the relationship to the self. Of all the people you will know in a lifetime, you are the only one you will never lose." - Jo Courdert

Along the way I've strived and defended the relationship, I've lost myself, there's no doubt about it. I have lost the magic that was me and only me. How could I have denied myself of the joy that defines my life? How could I have used him as a crutch to live my life? There's so much I have missed and now I have to make up for it, yes? ;)

I vow to not live in fear anymore.

"Sometimes you have to stand alone to prove that you can still stand." - Anonymous

This is in no way of comparing being in a relationship vs the single life. It is mere observations I have made in my road to self-discovery. My journey is still long and obscure. The road I will take is still unknown to me. Let me make my own mistakes that I won't regret. In the meantime, I have my dear family and friends to guide me and accompany me whilst I tread these untouched waters (and of course, for those goyang go-young sessions...ssshhhh)

A fresh start

It's a new year, it's a new day, and it's a new me :)

Well...considering all the dramas of 2009, I think I am justified in saying, this is the new and improved me....haha...

First of all, considering I am very very IT illiterate (yes, even in this new age of technology, I only know how to access the important stuff ie Facebook.....hahaha), I am soooo proud that I actually personalised my new blog. It took me a whole day to do it, but I did it!! Special special thank you to Shaq who helped me through my darkest moments; editing the html....

It's always good to do new year's resolutions (I know it's almost 2 months into the new year....better late than never :P) coz I think it actually gives you a personal obligation to do what you are meant to do in the first place. But before that, I would like to look back to the hardships and desolation of what was 2009 for me. In retrospect, I held my head high and was as strong as I could have been, and I thank you all of you who supported and helped me pulled through. In life, I think there comes a time when you're at your lowest and life has chewed and spat you out. But, what matters is how you fight the battle. I fought. Let's see how I do this time around :)

My new year's resolutions
          1. To start a new blog (DONE!!!)
          2. To move on (Loading............almost DONE!!!)
          3. To get a job here
          4. To focus on me, me and me
          5. To show my love and appreciation to those I dearly love and cherish, my precious dysfunctional
              family and my dearest friends....

PS: My new love of my life
