As for me, I write because.. it hurts. It hurts if I don’t get all these words out of my head. I didn’t choose the words, the words chose me.

Welcome, 2012.
If you told me a year ago,
“You’re going to write for a movie that will be premiered in Melbourne’s National Theatre.”
“You’re finally going to one of the world’s fashion capitals and one of your dream cities, London. And oh, with your own saving. Paris, Netherlands, Germany, you’re almost there. But life says, “Wait. Not now.” ”
“You’re going to intern, write and have them published for a...

Doing 'it'.
For 1500 people from various nations, or only for one faithful reader, I want to keep on doing what I love.
Doing it like everyone is watching Doing it like no one is watching.
Not for useless recognition and instant gratification.
There’s too many people doing it for fame and money. “The skies already got enough stars.” Only few people doing it out of love, and I don’t...
Boys will always be boys..
Me: “Why guys always make every problems seem sooo simple? I hate being a girl sometimes, we rely too much on our feelings..”
Buddy: “That’s because I have something you don’t.”
Me: “What?” (Expecting for a philosophical, profound answer)
Buddy: “A motherfuck*ng penis.”

The loud voice of silence.
When the night turns dark, you can hear the strong wind blowing, casting everything on its way away, the trees are so unfortunate for not having a shelter..
When even your friend(s) can notice how everything seems going wrong in your life lately, Random. Out of a sudden. Unjust. Strange. Indescribable. Chaotic.
But it is when I locked my door, put away my phone, and run to the throne.. all I...

Cheers.
I’m turning 20 in few hours (FYI, I’m fond of dollars, do not hesitate) and right now I’m re-reading my journal. Reflecting on my previous years, the barbaric but cherished teenage years. Oh man.. how I’m sooo grateful for everything. Good and bad. Life without problems, is like Lindsay Lohan without cocaine, like the Kardashians without the bootylicious Kim, boring.

Movie Review: "Soul Surfer (2011)"
A good movie easily make my day. “Soul Surfer” is one of them.
My first reaction after finished watching it, “FINALLY!!! A beautifully written movie that doesn’t glorify ‘Sex Sells’ ideology”
Basically, the movie is about a passionate girl named Bethany Hamilton. Surfing is her whole life. Her lungs breathes the ocean’s zephyr, the blue skies and...
Jack and Nathan.
I was just walking from my tram stop to my house earlier this afternoon. With my earphones on, I couldn’t hear anything but loud songs from my iPhone. All of a sudden, two blonde young boys came from my behind with their scooters.
One of them looked at me and asked, “Do you smoke?”
I took off my earphones and answered the rather odd question, “No.. Why?” “Do...
"Writing is a beautiful violence."
I just had to re-blog the whole content of this article. It’s so good, I’m enticed to this article from the very beginning. So here it is, a beautiful “writing is a beautiful violence” article by Stephen Parolini (@noveldoctor)
“If you watch a writer in a coffee shop, you won’t be particularly impressed by her work. You might not even notice that she’s working. The...

Oops, grace did it again.
Growing up in a Chinese family, there’s a certain belief I perceive.
We as human gotta work hard, for money. For food. For clothes. For those “must have” items that media and advertising companies keep fooling us to buy. (winking to Apple.com) When you work hard, you will earn the reward. There is no such thing as “free gifts”, you gotta work your ass off!

Wake up call.
Today (8 June 2011) was certainly.. something.
Waking up to a knock on my door. It was my housemate. “Hey, ‘that-thing-u-wanted-since-a-year-ago’ finally have arrived.” Of course he didn’t say that, but in my head it sounded like that.
This is ‘that-thing’
(It costs me literally only 15% from the original price. Connections FTW!)

The Big "W"
“Do you know WHY you’re doing what you’re doing?”
Yes, the ultimate question.. The dead-on “W” word.
WHY.
“Why do you wake up in the morning, on a cold weekend, to go to a meeting?” “Why do you keep up with those projects and you don’t even get paid? “Why you can stand going home at 11.30 P.M. the earliest, almost everyday?...

Life in one-liners.
In life.. you have to choose your battle, because not every battle is worth fighting.
In life.. “you don’t have to know everything, just simply know the One who knows.”
In life.. having no dreams and goals is like driving a car, but not knowing where to go.
In life.. “aim for 10, because when you fall, at least you got a 9 or an 8.” - my elementary school math...
