Death is a fisherman, the world we see
His fish-pond is, and we the fishes be;
His net some general sickness; howe'er he
Is not so kind as other fishers be;
For if they take one of the smaller fry,
They throw him in again, he shall not die;
But death is sure to kill all he can get,
And all is fish with him that comes to net.
Sometimes i still wonder, why are we alive for.

and just like this, i'm once again reminded of the fragility of life.
It doesnt sleep, it doesnt eat.
it just comes and takes away; leaving behind the pieces for loved ones to pick up only to find that it can never be whole again.
RIP Jude, though i've only met u once, i can see how much of a person u are by the way you treat junchyi.

you are just mind blowing.
"The transient nature of the intangible, makes it all the more worthy. We just need to constantly remind ourselves of its value ; the beauty which lies in the austere simplicity often disregarded. We must try to remember not to forget."
ur posts on ur thots abt life just constantly gives the chills.

A peace and calming night, one we have not seen for many days. The still air, no a single gust of wind to cool the room. The only sound in the night is the crisp guitar plucking of sungha jung through my music player and the occasional vroom of cars along clementi avenue.
It brings a serenity i have long yearned for in a long time.
Is this all? maybe it is coupled with the fact that i finally come to terms with what i have lost. Looking through your photos, i see a smile i dearly miss, a face i haven touched for a long time; a person that i have to now accept will not be in my life anymore. Even as you prepare to fly back home tonight for a few months, i guess this is a start of a new beginning for you, a fresh start. I'm sure you got your first class honours and the euroaqua research position. I wish you all the best because knowing you, you will go very far in life. Goodbye hh.
I went for sungha jung and preston reed with lion the other day. It was wonderful to see her after so long. We missed the first song because we went lau pat sat to eat. ha. But all in all, the whole concert was wonderful! Sungha with his more modern fingerstyle play and songs, while preston reed plays much more traditional fingerstyle methods. Would have to say i still enjoyed hotel california the most because it brings me back to my childhood where i would watch the Eagles, live in the Grand Ballroom, on LD. Those were actually good times from my past that i guess i will never forget. Great times i spend with my dad, just chilling in the living room, listening to bands like eagles, bad company, rod steward. haha.
After which we went to get yoguro! not a super fan of yoghurt but it actually was quite nice. lol. The more surprising thing was i met my entire ex cell group there at raffles city! lion and i were like going up the escalator then i saw sherill, then ruth, then basically everyone else. haven seen them since pf's wedding, i guess they are all doing well. =). Then saw Elaine, Serene they all while queuing for yoguro, had a brief chat. Kinda left lion there for a few minutes. So sorry! Then we headed to chijmes and sat down to chat and catch up; and i still feel that u are relatively guarded. ;).
really hope one day i will be able to understand u fully :).
Guess wad, u are also flying off today. lol. Have a wonderful time in Germany, i'm sure it'll be great!(don even know if u still read here)
Yeah, its time to look forward and move ahead. But nothing without labour, right? work for that second uppers!

because the flashes of lightning that fill the desolate sky tries to erase the bad moments that happen in our life but no matter how much i try to look at them, the blinding light only manages to white out your mind for that few seconds before it all rushes back in again.
The booming thunderous applause mocks the soul, an audience to the show of your life, starring you and your co-actors, bad memories and negative thinking, directed by depression and produced by emo-ness.
because that is what rain is, cold, bleak and overcast. It soothes a torn heart, a bruised soul; as they can relate to dreariness of the situation. Because birds of a flock, fly together. Because people like me no need others to spark off a bad thought, as i myself can do that easily alone.
yes u can have your bad moments, but i cannot take blunt sarcasm especially if i am trying to find out whats wrong and am actually trying to alleviate the situation. in the end, there is still a limit to how much i can give to u before i cross a line, something which i've been trying so hard to not thread across.
你呢，要勇竞！不是要我而是要勇敢竞争下去！要做个不倒翁。跌了又弹回来。:]即使自己弹不起来，身旁的兄弟姐妹们，朋友们都会副扶你上来。现在就先静一静吧，希望看到你快快恢复正常的你。又开心又说笑。 :]

"If I am to die, at least I shall die amongst brothers." - Gannicus
Brotherhood goes beyond just words, because words though strong cannot deflect the venomous blades that life dishes out. A true bro fights by your side, even when outnumbered, they will not abandon you. Cherishing victory together, sharing the pain of defeats; because joy is doubled when shared and grief is halved when taken upon two shoulders instead of one.
Just like how Jenko took a bullet for Schimdt in 21 Jump Street,
how Varro died so Spartacus can live,
or even how Scofield used himself to connect the wires that led to Sarah and Lincoln's escape.
The over-hype about brotherhood in movies and shows tend to sensationalize it to be something with regards to life and death but in actual fact it can be as simple as a mere extended hand to a fallen comrade. Because bonds forged can be binding not by mere ties of friendship but strings of heart; held taut by the experiences shared together.
The deepest of bonds in a brotherhood reach so deep that even innocent betrayal of trust that stings like salt upon wound can be uplifted and forgotten, albeit after much struggle and confrontation. But the roots of the bond lie deeply etched into soul. Such bros are thus said to be tethered to each other.
To end off,
"sometime wine and foolishness are needed, to forge stronger bonds." - Mira
Maybe the green fairy can help me find my true brother.

心软或心硬都会有人伤心。一项来都想着既然会不满不如让对方开心把全部的心痛都吸收来。因为她人开心也够。因为喜欢的女孩子都有灿烂的笑容。最喜欢就是看她们笑了。那也把吸收的伤感大量大量地减少了。。。
可是也该开始多为自己着想; because, you've got to learn to love yourself.
After hearing the song possibly for 100 over times, i realised that the sentence was actually also talking to me and not just for her as i initially thoght.
