crawling up again, standing up once more.

knowing that you've done it before, can you ever be satisfied with mediocrity?

which is why it hurts. that maybe they were flukes but then again.

this effort sounds scant. like, i make an effort to blog once a week, but yeah i know.

the holidays are short, short but highly eventful. of course, there's this whole chain of food poisoning and stuff (of which get well soon okay!). and for that matter, friends are people who stand by you when you're literally down and out (i.e. sick), and thank you =D

it's surprising how time flies so fast, and yet time flies so slowly sometimes. for some, the rushing of time merely hastens the departure of memory. but yet, the sands of time do not cover up the imprints of the past.

that happened on sunday and monday, where i felt as if i was home again, a lost soul for 1 year. how everything suddenly seemed to flow back into my brain as i said my his and byes and waved to them all. it's heartwarming at times too, to see welcomes all over again.

anyway, something we played, but so nice:

tchaikovsky's serenade for strings 3rd movement. a really beautiful elegy.

this post is solely to show that my blog is NOT DEAD (okay i made a pact with myself to post at least once a week lah so.)

anyway, somehow or another, michael jackson feels like the rage now, especially when his birthday was a few days back. yeah 1980s all over again? haha cool.

and i caught the MJ fever too oh dear.

okay this song ah. it's a bit repetitive, it's a bit fake (i mean, yeah "we are the world" when "we" seems to only include citizens from the then-richest country in the world.), and it's a bit too popular and old.

but i like it, the idea that maybe we "are the ones who make a brighter day", so maybe do have the power to change lives after all. that maybe we should really get together and start giving, and show solidarity now.

just now, when the world really needs our support as one, dealing with a whole host of crises. we need more people like that, more action, more magic indeed.

which reminded me of today's gp essay we discussed - we, as members of developed countries, should really take care of our friends, comrades suffering out there. isn't it so true?

people are blinded though. all for weird reasons, for political/economic reasons or something else, don't want to save everyone else out there.

people, let's come together as one to save this world that is crumbling in our own hands, and show them we care.
