i thought about this for a while already, but it slipped my mind and i never got round to putting it down in words but here goes...hope it's gonna be short, i don't intend for this to be a long post in the first place.

things are definitely different than before. i'm enjoying it so much more, cos i'm more willing to embrace it. i guess not only does distance make the heart grow fonder, it makes the entire situation better to being with.

right now, conflicts/arguments are a rarity, if any at all, cos (at least, i think that's the case) all we wanna do is to spend the little time we have enjoying each other's company. although i see conflicts/arguments as part and parcel of it all, it's really unnecessary- because there are so many better ways to make things work better.

in fr gerard's words (or was it some other priest) i think i can call him a God-send. at this point, after failing to see how close he was all along, i'm just really thankful that God sent him to me, to be the other guy to catch me when i fall.

hearts for you. you know who you are.

it reminded me of you.

this made me cry.

Vanilla Twilight- Owl City

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

'Cause I'll doze off safe and soundly
But I'll miss your arms around me
I'd send a postcard to you, dear
'Cause I wish you were here

I'll watch the night turn light-blue
But it's not the same without you
Because it takes two to whisper quietly

The silence isn't so bad
'Til I look at my hands and feel sad
'Cause the spaces between my fingers
Are right where yours fit perfectly

I'll find repose in new ways
Though I haven't slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia
Chills me to the bone

But drenched in vanilla twilight
I'll sit on the front porch all night
Waist-deep in thought because
When I think of you I don't feel so alone

I don't feel so alone, I don't feel so alone

As many times as I blink
I'll think of you tonight
I'll think of you tonight

When violet eyes get brighter
And heavy wings grow lighter
I'll taste the sky and feel alive again

And I'll forget the world that I knew
But I swear I won't forget you
Oh, if my voice could reach
Back through the past
I'd whisper in your ear
Oh darling, I wish you were here

burnt out.

in his words, and rephrased, tiredness + boredom = not a good mix.

from the ok-i-think-today's-mugging-session-will-be-a-good-one-like-the-last-few-days in the morning, to oh-shit-today-is-super-unproductive-what-on-earth-is-going-on-i-better-mug-somemore-if-not-you're-gonna-be-in-deep-s*** in the afternoon, to the argh-i'm-super-sian-don't-feel-like-studying-need-to-get-out-of-the-house feeling now.

seriously, i thought today will be a good study day, but it's really otherwise. ):

~~~~~~~

i wanna complete my christmas wish list, so far, i've got like 6 (edited: now it's 12!) of 12 items (1 item for every day of christmas, in order of preference. and yes, and you may call me greedy.)

marie's wish list for christmas

1. pearl hairband, from accessorize or anywhere else with pretty pretty accessories. oh, and the bottom elastic band part right, i don't like the flat elastic band, i like the round one :D
2. watch. reason being i wanna retire my swatch that godma gave me for my 18th birthday. it's too pretty to be tortured anymore.
3. dress. from animal/THAT cotton on one (ask me about it) or any nice, pretty, cheap one
4. earphones, not the one that rubber thingy, the one with like the plastic earpieces. come see mine if you dunno what i'm talking about. haha.
5. manicure! means, you just have to pay for me (: alternatively, you can paint my nails for me :D i'll even provide you with nail polish!
6. bag. from accessorize. beaded or patent leather. but not super shiny/stiff patent leather. ok yes, i'm very demanding too.
7. wedges! not like potato wedges. like shoes wedges. like those casual kind, sling-back, peep-toe kind. the heel like made of cork or some brownish-looking material...
8. cardigan (stripped) or stripped knit top from esprit
9. gisele bunchen ipanema strappy sandals in black
10. stationery that i'll use to decorate my notes and cards with :D (uniball signo dx 0.38 in lime green/golden yellow/orange or glitter pens)
11. piano book. 'West Coast Jazz Piano by Gene Rizzo, $33 from Yamaha'. can be found at plaza sing outlet cos that's where i spotted it.
12. bomber jacket?

i've yet to fill up other stuff, cos i haven't thought of any yet, or this is what's 'most' pressing? so it might just end here, so it'll make all your jobs much easier.

alternatively, just spend some time with me after my papers, and you'll make marie an equally happy girl.

3rd december, 7pm- the moment i will be free. ok, for just a few weeks. but i'm not complaining!

in the midst of all that studying...

the past month has been quite different from the previous months? i don't know if it's cos it was the 'high' time of uni life (with the millions of project deadlines that are killing us!) or cos it's been somewhat of a milestone that it's gone quite well the past month. ok, so i'm not the best writer here, as you see my very unsuccessful attempt to put in words what i wanna say, but i don't mean my last sentence to be understood by everyone who reads this anyway. haha. it's been some time since i blogged about solid stuff that's been going on in my life, no thanks to uni, so i'm not the most keen now to start listing them here. in a sentence or two to describe my life right now: i'm still alive (and kicking) and in the most honest sense (now i don't know if that made sense) i won't be killed by pieces of paper and invisible stuff that flies through cyberspace. and kudos to those who've been supporting me every step of the way, you deserve a bear hug from me (:


on a lighter note, it's kinda early to be raving about christmas but i guess all the activities i can look forward to in december (minus the exams of course!) are getting me super excited. shan't list them here for my own convenience cos plans aren't concrete yet, and also let any of you reading my blog (which isn't very interesting to begin with) get bored. anyway, starbucks and christmas lighting coming up along orchard road are the main reasons for my going high and singing 'jingle bell rock' while out with him on saturday for lunch, cos they're all ready for christmas! WHOO :D I OFFICIALLY DECLARE STARBUCKS AS THE BEST AGENT FOR MAKING LITTLE GIRLS like marie HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY. *jumps around like a happy and crazy little girl* i can't wait for the time when school takes a backseat (even for just one month!), when fun is the only thing i can think about with my family and friends, when i can truly immerse myself in the festive mood when present galore, christmas deco goes up, cooler weather to make up for the lack of snow in sunny singapore? oh oh and did i mention CHRISTMAS SALES can'twaitcan'twaitcan'twaitCAN'TWAIT!!!!

ok back to earth, marie, it's only 3rd november.

*beams*

back! or not?
