Monday, October 10 This was the first song I learnt how to play on the guitar and to croak along with ...(And how did I actually manage to serenade someone with it, gee!) Anyways, that was about 7 years ago. And today, I'm still so in love with it. But I betcha you all like this song too, no?? So there's just something about the entire simplicity of the song, and the cold hard truth that the lyrics bear that somehow draw me in. Bizarre, I say. FRENTE! - BIZARRE LOVE TRIANGLE Everytime I think of you I get a shot right through into a bolt of blue It's no problem of mine but it's a problem I find Living the life that I can't leave behind There's no sense in telling me The wisdom of a fool won't set you free But that's the way that it goes and it's what nobody knows And every day my confusion grows Everytime I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for the final moment You say the words that I can't say I feel fine and I feel good I feel like I never should Whenever I get this way I just don't know what to say Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday I'm not sure what this could mean I don't think you're what you seem I do admit to myself that if I hurt someone else Then I'd never see just what we're meant to be Everytime I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for the final moment You say the words that I can't say Everytime I see you falling I get down on my knees and pray I'm waiting for the final moment You say the words that I can't say ...

Sunday, October 2 It's time for you people to buy your lottery tickets! My 2nd entry in a span of 3 days. Exciting or what?! For a moment, I sat staring at my screen, cracking my brain as to what I wanted to blog about. My memory (or rather, lack thereof) has been underperforming of late. My Aunt can be giving me instructions to do something, and I'll go "Yeah okay" then walk away to do whatever she told me to. After 4 steps, I'll turn back to her and go "What did you say ah?" Now, forgetting what I wanted to blog about initially is another perfect example. Familiarity. Ah yes, that was what I wanted to talk about. Headed to Wala's last night to catch The UnXpected after a 3.5 mth long hiatus. Tis always the case. When Wendy is here, I'll be there with her and our friends almost every week, be it a Thursday, or a Saturday, or both! And when she goes back to Melbourne, we hardly go down to Wala's. Wen's like the pivot for our Wala's outings. Twas my first time there without Wen and gang. It was packed to the brim, and my friends and I were forced to retreat to the furthest end of the bar in a little corner. Any possible view of Shirlyn and the band was blocked by heads, pillars, and more heads. It was an almost surreal feeling - sitting there, sipping my Hoegaardens with a totally different group of friends. Tired as I was, that didn't stop me from enjoying myself tremendously last night. And I reckon that's where familiarity comes in. Been there so often before that I just felt comfortably at ease at that place. Just watching the band stepping up on stage invariably brought a smile to my face. Hearing the familiar rockerchick voice just stretched the smile wider. Am just hopping my friends didn't notice me smiling away to myself like a kuku. The sense of familiarity ensured that I was to be comfortable at Wala. Familiarity from being at Wala's so many times before, and familiarity of the friends I was with. Thanks for the fun evening girls :) It's probably the same as to why I'm at Color every Friday night with the girls, and how we used to be at Harry's Boat Quay every Friday night before that. The same thing can be applied to emotions. We get so comfortable and attached to someone we feel for, and spend a lot of time with because of the attachment. With familiarity comes attachment. What I am purpotedly trying to say is that familiarity and attachment brings about feelings of ease, happiness and comfortability. We slip into comfort zones. So comfortable that you don't want to crawl out. So natural it is to feel belonged to a place or a person, that it is so very difficult to be nudged away.
