Bits and Pieces
Soon,mine will be the 1000th Graduation album up on Facebook.
Somewhere in between photos, I can't help but noticing the people I lose touch with. All of us are heading to different directions and it is even harder to keep up with them. Is it too late to say hello again? I do not know. Is it too late to care? Perhaps. Is it too late to take the bold step and say hi again? Never.
Sometimes, we bottle up how we feel about a relationship. We wait until it is the right moment to show our appreciation. We never tell someone how much they mean to us because it might sound awkward. Life is brief. If you are glad you meet them. Tell them. If you feel that life could not have been so fulfilling without them. Tell them. It will put a smile on their face.And warmth in your heart.

i am a free bitch
Her individualism, her out-there messages, and not a care of the world. Lady GaGa represents it all .An inspiration for freaks. A freak to some. A fascination for the remaining.
A fascination to me, I actually learnt something from her. Her belief is simple : " I am a free bitch." You are who you are. Do not be pretentious.
A chapter my life has ended. The get-a-degree chapter. I am currently staring blankly on my next chapter. A fresh blank page. Unable to begin. Unable to decide what to do with it. Perhaps it is more of scribbling, crossing out and fumbling for words. Trying cautiously to get it right.
We are free to choose who we are. But does it really work that way? Am I being too cautious? When I was young, I would love to change something in this world. Anything. As I grew older, I realised reality does not work that way. Initial endowment, as I learnt, is the extra something that propels you to great heights. This dream of mine seems to shrink by the day, Perhaps it is more modest to say, I want to change the things around me. Even a little is better than nothing.
We are free bitches,but it takes one successful free bitch to constantly remind us that we can actually be free.
