最熟悉的陌生人

 
 "有時候,希望時間為自己停下,就這樣和喜歡的人地老天荒;有時候,面對著身邊的人,突然覺得說不齣話;有時候,在自己脆弱的時候,想一個人躲起來;有時候,突然很想逃離現在的生活,想不顧一切收拾自己簡單的行李去流浪。"



你那整行的字,引起了注意,读完后,跟你有同一样的感受。这种感受,是在很久很久以前一开始有了。而这种感觉才会在你遇到挫折时出现,说不定可能当你有灵感时而出现呢?


我以前,现在,都会有这样的想法。 谁会没啊?是人都会有过这样的感觉。逃离现实,到一个没人认识你的地方从新开始过; 不然就收拾行李一个人偷偷的溜走; 是人都要的——逃避。逃避很简单,不用去面对,也不用去解决。同事每一天都会说的一句:“现实点!” 世上的事没那么容易。无论你能逃避,但你能逃避得多久?始终要面对的都要面对。这句话虽然伤过了我心, 但我相信逃避不是办法。


学会坚强吧。好想好想对你说话,一一说不出声。我们以便成最熟悉的陌生人了。在这,只想让你知道要坚持,多辛苦都要碍过。雨过天晴嘛~ =) 不只现在的路难走,未来会更难。我不知你现在的状况,但我希望你能学着去把自己的心情说出来,用话,用沟通来解答心的不安。不会说话都要说!



我还有一对耳朵可以耐心聆听你的一切。 =)






There's nothing like us. =)

Smile, because I can. =)

Note to self: I have been blogging quite often. Quite frequent actually. So many stuff, no where to push it out. No use keeping it inside as it will show on the outside in the end. =) So here I am, my solitude.


Nothing beats writing. For me that is. I write in English most of the times, yet sometimes only with Chinese I can bring out the meaning of what I want to deliver. So both languages is used here in my little world. =) Smiley face every time I end a sentence or something I say because I really smiled. I smile and laugh because you won't know who will be falling in love with your smile and laughter! ^^


I smile at things, little things. Because it makes me happy inside. Makes me feel warmth. Things like having friends to chat with, things like having so many stuff on the table, or maybe things like my dreams. Or some things like smiling at how I can talk about the past yet not have any hard feelings towards it. I smile at the beautiful memories, and not those who caused me to tear. We want to remember good memories, because that same old memory can never happen twice. =)


When you can look that person in the face and talk to them like nothing ever happened between you both, when you can laugh and joke, tease and play with each other like the good old times, then you know that peace is in your heart. I can smile, because I know I have found that peace between us, 5 years did not go to waste just like that, because I cherish everything we had. =)


Yet its so different right now. I miss that one person who feels that we have so much difference that we can't be together. I miss his smile and his hair, that person who says that he's not ready as we have begun too fast. No I cannot bring myself to see to him and his apologies, but today, I realized that I am slowly letting go. One day, and that day will come when we can be friends again. Just this morning I thought about him and how I miss having to open my eyes and the first thing I see is him. I'm just missing those little moments with him. That's what I chose to remember, and not for how he have treated me. Learn to smile, and all will be alright. =) Strangers again, we are.


Some try to forget, some tend to dwell. Me? Well I do a little of both. And sometimes, all we need is second chances. Second chances are good. It teaches you to not screw things up again, yet it might be a testing grounds for some. And if you do get second chances in life, please do not screw up. Work things out properly as things can be resolved if you put effort in it, and everything will be worth it. =)



I didn't know so many people knew about us. But there's nothing to hide. I would give a second chance, and give myself a second chance, only if asked, which I doubt it, because I know that pride and ego plays a bigger part. But then again, under the guidance of friends and family and my own pride, am I willing to give that second chances to people who don't deserve it?










Patching back is one tough move.

One fine day. :)






Red ticks marks the spots.



One day.


I will fulfill this dream of mine. Travel the world like how I dream of it, explore every corner and experience it in my own distinctive way. The way I want to explore, the way I want to see and experience, that day will come. And that day will come.


One day.


I will travel.



Because I believe. ;)






In the future, I wish you would join me.






Surprisingly my heart ain't searching no more.

流泪手心。

 
 
 
当你将离别握在我手心 我听见爱被悄悄捏碎的声音
你不懂你不要的我的心 会随你松开的手而喊停
我试着微笑 (试着微笑) 试着拥抱 在每一秒
我不想看见闭上的眼睛 害怕你最后 化成泪溜出手心
 
 
 
已经是好久好久没好好的听他唱歌了。 在这下雨的夜晚里,我回味着他的歌。带来的回忆是多么的美妙,多么的舒畅,多么的平静与完美。
 
 
心的平静无法解释。
 
 
好想有杯热咖啡陪着,听着他的歌曲,闭上眼,真正体味到生活的美丽。
 
 
 
 
 
要习惯一个人的生活,在繁忙的世界里,害怕失控,更害怕失去自我。





你不配。
 

Dance.

There under the lime light, he was staring at her thinking, "Damn. She's so beautiful." One hand on her waist, the other holding her hand, he was mesmerized.


Her skirt flows as she moves, eyes looking at him and only him thinking, "He's the one." Hands on his arms, she swayed with him to the rhythm of the music.


Happiness etched on their faces, they danced like nobody was watching. Everyone looked on as they danced, and everyone knew.


They were meant for each other.








Wild, young and free.
I'm no longer me.

宽恕。




挣扎着。



越显自己不够坚强,不够勇气来放下。她一直一直的在犹豫着,是否还要继续追,让他感到她真正内心里的爱。真的想了又想,连给自己一个机会都没,生活的乐趣去了哪?她那勇敢大胆的那一面去了哪?



犹豫着。



她总是做不到决定。什么事情都会忐忑,犹豫。可到了爱情这方面,每次都跟着她的心做选择。难道,心是那么的不可靠?想了想,她笑了一下。她还是相信她的心。没用泪水挽留他的她,因为爱而不要让他感到像是辜。那是最不恰当的方式来让一个人留在身旁。


害怕着。



她总是能在最暗的时刻找到那曙光,而是她的心真的很想照顾他,让他看到她看的一切,让他感受到他需要的爱与关注。好想好想,好多好想,可惜时间就是不允许她证明给他看,让他体验到。真的是有点不甘他们的爱死在半路。



微笑着。


 
伤了又伤,真的够了。她真的不能在爱了。别人都说不可能的,让时间疗伤,你会找到更好的。但她彻底的了解自己,要在爱,要等一个时期了。如果相信还有更好的话,那要爱有什么用?永远就不会真正的爱一个人。永远都学不会。她,不会在期待爱的来领了,就让时间来洗掉一切吧~




好想做个坏人,才不会被伤害了。





希望你能在每一天里找到快乐。

安靜的故事。

看着天,毛毛雨,心里想了一句:



"天为我流我哭不出的泪。"



一个亲吻,随着他的离开,泪水,从她右眼滑下了脸颊。不是因分离心痛而哭,而是因她知道那是真正的最后一次了。舍不得看着他转身离去,那熟悉的背影,深深的刻在她心里。难道,真的不适合?


心酸。


在那么短的时间里,一切就这样的结束。


要挽留,要从新开始,要是着去解决,但尊重了他的决定。但她还可觉得做得不够,真的就让他走?是因差异,性格不配的一个理由而没得挽留?她始终都相信不是差异而导致人的分隔,而是怎样去克服那差异才重要。难道因差异而分,连挽留的机会都没?连试着去解答这问题的机会也没?



泪水几乎是模糊了实现。



又来一次的可惜。



怎么她一次又一次的傻傻爱上了一个不该爱的人呢?怎么能说不适合呢?怎么能这样开始又结束了呢?朋友对她说,哀是有四个阶段:1)拒绝 2)愤怒 3)萧条 4)验收。那她到底是哪的阶段呢?想了想,看看自己,她始终是在第一和第二阶段中。泪水又来了,按着良心,把泪水茶干。


 
不能哭。


重复了有重复。

 
不准哭!


 
她是坚强的,可她心已死了。至于为何放他走,是因为爱上了。周杰伦的安静轻轻的盘钻在她脑里,哼着歌,翻开笔记看看所写的一切,她,微笑了。



喜欢着不该喜欢的东西。



望着蓝蓝的天空,哼着歌,她还会试着追求,等待。只因她不相信差异会带来分隔,连下功夫的机会也没,哪可放弃?





她始终喜欢他们之间的差异。










我就不相信差异会带来分隔。
我就不接受因不适合而分。

Sorry seems to be the hardest word.


Arms around her to show people that she belongs to him.
He was like sunshine that she loves.



"Hi."


One word.


A friendly hello.



But she turned the other way.



What made her do that,even she does not know. It was just being mean. She just didn't know how to react or what to do. Both her hands were shaking quite badly the moment she saw him from the corner of her eye. Her heart was racing even when she was driving. Yet nothing prepared her to be so mean. Tried to keep herself busy with the phone, yet even holding the phone was a problem!



"Want to talk to you but didn't get a chance."




Again, she chose to not reply. But with every thing she does, she notices him. Can't deny what her heart wants, she looks at him without him noticing, though the friends might notice. Those feelings for him were true, and at that very moment, all she wanted was to go up to him and give him a long big hug. Looking at his face, even one kiss would be enough to make her feel alright.



"Meet later?" 



No action was taken that night. Now she was at fault, for being mean. As fatigue creeps, she could no longer take it. Slipping into the dark, she had to leave or else it would be impossible for the long drive. Some silly movie scene played in her head as she drove alone, how naive! All she wanted was for him to have the courage to stop her in her tracks, and talk to her, be it for the worst. Or maybe, just maybe, she should be the one doing that instead.



When's later?


Sigh.



**************************



Its a cold night.
A song to warm the heart.
A song that speaks what my heart can't say.




A song for you.








I'll start by saying I'm sorry.

Walk tall.

I don't care whether my blog is open to the world or not, this is a place I find my solitude.





Too much have been happening lately, just when I found my that fire of mine, everything goes haywire. It's life. The way it is, the only thing is to find solitude in the things that makes life beautiful. And the only thing right now that's giving me comfort is my job and my goal. I work to achieve my dreams right now and nothing more. =)


I'm always taking the wrong turns. Sometimes I stumble and wonder why, then I look at it in another way - wrong turns are experiences. Experiences that you learn from and make sure you don't ever make that wrong turn again. Even if you take a wrong turn, you know what you should and should not do in that situation. Just sometimes I really want to knock myself in the head for always taking and making the wrong turn.


To see life in another angle. 
To view things as what they are not. 
To smile even when I'm on the verge of breaking.


Crying out without a sound was the most torturing part. The tears stream down, mouth wide open with a silent scream, clawing and fist clenching thin air. Mental pain was inevitable.

It isn't physical force that make you scream, but the mental pain that kills the inside of you every single time. People still don't realized that words hurts the most. Every word has a weight. And what I detest the most is accusing me of something I didn't even know I commit. Those words of accusation, heavy and hurtful. Not that I take those words to heart, but personally dislike accusations without solid evidence. What can I say? Tolerance is all I have got left.


Patience.
Tolerance.
Kindness.
Understanding.


People who know me well enough would know I am one of a kind. Everyone has a limit to their tolerance and patience level. For me, it's different. I too have a limit but it's very rare. Instead, I can put it in a way that it's like once in a blue moon for me to explode like a volcano. As far as I am concern, I have a BIG heart. ;)



Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.


Recycling old quotes. Life's still beautiful no matter what happens. Suck it up, tough it out, because that's how I roll. Thank you to my lovely friends who's there for me when I fall. As many times as I fall, I become that much stronger. =) Love each and everyone of you.



I love myself too much to put myself through such torturous moments.
I smile because I can.
Beneath, I'm imperfect but beautiful.



Beautiful song to end the night.





Dreaming is believing that nothing is impossible.

Architecture 101 : 10






Our experience of an architectural space is strongly influenced by how we arrive in it.
A tall, bright space will feel taller and brighter if counterpointed by a low-ceilinged, softly lit space. A monumental or sacred space will feel more significant when placed at the end of a sequence of lesser spaces. A room with south-facing windows will be more strongly experienced after one passes through a series of north-facing spaces.





From 101 Things I learned in Architecture School by Matthew Frederick.

Caught in between.

Even a cold shower is unable to cool me down. 

 Broken piano. 
No song in my life for now.
 

Two words to describe today - Fuck. Shit. 

Yes. Even one word "Fuck" ain't enough. Actually, no word is enough to describe my today. Or rather, my life recently. (Sorry for my language, but it is necessary.) No words is able to describe how I am feeling right this moment. No words is big enough, or deep enough to express the shit I am feeling. My life, is in turmoil. 


Work. 
Ever since I've started working, I felt like life has it's limit. My passion, my drive, interest, all gone. I know I have to get it back, but have anyone tried telling me how? Or what can I do? Because I've tried ways to rekindle that passion, and sometimes I think I've got a grab at it, it flickers and dies again. That flame, I can see it in a distance, but it seems so far when I tried to reach out to it. 

Sometimes I work like I love my job, and some days, it just ain't the same. A crossroad, as I have told many, but what can I do other than Architecture? What other shit that I have that can help me through this rough world? Just to earn or to learn? Giving up ain't an option for me. A thousand thoughts runs through my mind. What would my father say if he knew? What would other people think and say if they knew? But then again, who really, actually knows the real me deep down? 


Life. 
It's related to working life. I socialize after working hours, and on the weekends. But then, socializing, you need money. When you need money, you work. But what if your work performance is not up to par? Sometimes, people say it's simply to just step it up, work your ass off. But the question again is, are you working to learn or working to earn? It started of with working to learn, but as the realization that my passion died, I work to earn. It's all about the money now, isn't it?! 

Pissed with myself, I am not eating well as well. Not that I do not know how to take care, but with my current life in turmoil, my appetite goes down the drain as well. Somebody have to literally force me to eat. That's how pitiful I am right now. (I don't expect you people to pity me. And I dislike nagging about stuff I already know.) Well, that proves how stubborn I am as well. 


Trapped in between two worlds right now. I'm a middle person between my boss and the client. Such an uncomfortable position to be at, which I have been in it once, or twice. To the point I was pissed that people can just take sides without seeing the entire picture. To the point that people can be so paranoid that stuff they assumed! 


Study. 
University life. Surprisingly I don't miss it. I think it's the way my last semester has been, as well as the people around. A little part of me inside says yes, I miss uni life. How design studio were run, how we are always designing, yet chatting away with each other, and how much we have grown and learn and improve year by year. At the same time, we see people we were once close with change into a complete stranger. It was nice knowing you, friend. 

I lost that fire, that burned so brightly. By year 3, I was nothing but someone who do for the sake of doing. Will I be able to forgive myself for not working hard? No. Will I be able to forget what horrible work I have done during my 3 years course? No. But will I forget what those 3 years have taught me? No. But people change, and we have to deal with it. It's the people, not the school. I just want to go back studying in hope to rekindle that passion with Architecture that I once had. But how do I do so? Without inspiration or aspiration, without creativity, I am nothing. I am still nothing, up to today. Without passion or interest for art, I can never take that step forward. Gone like the wind, is my love for art. 


It's so easy to get lost in work, in life itself, and forget who you once were. Hungry for new challenges, lust after stuff that you don't need. But you are still that young, adventurous, independent person you'll ever know. (I just got to remind myself that) 


Love. 
The only thing keeping me sane. The only feeling that is holding me together. All I need is love. Always my blog title, always my tag line, always will be what drives me and keep me sane. I always give love to people around me, without expecting anything in return. But the love given ain't equal to the love returned, and it will never be the same. I feel like I'm being loved and not loved both at the same time. Is that even possible? I guess it is. Or maybe it's just me, thinking too much again. 

Hot and cold, is that what I am getting from you? Please don't do this to me. You don't know the way I look at you. You make me smile, you make me laugh, just thinking about you puts a smile on my heart. :) Yet, sometimes I wish you paid more attention to me, instead of being so into photography, or friends and all, really. 逼近我是你女人嘛~。 No? We girls are always craving for attention, but the only attention we want is from the person we love. ;) Even without you here right now, thinking about you makes me smile and that is sufficient, for now. ♥ 


Some people don't know how fragile I am behind that mask I am wearing. Things are getting blurrier as the day passes. Situation are getting harder to deal with each day. And sometimes all a person needs is just a hug, comfort, and security to know that they are not alone. 


And with my life spirally out of control, 
the only thing that made me alright,

is him.
