Your Hand

Go visit Alicia's blog and listen to the song playing on her blog- http://bearicia.blogspot.com/ .
Listen to the music and think about how you feel. What are the images that come to your mind? Come up up a poem based on the music. Do let me know when you come up with one.

Below is my version:

Your Hand

I wish I had your hand in mine,
And hold on to it for the longest time.

Your fingers firmly locked with mine,
So intertwined, they are neither yours or mine.

The warmth of blood rushing through your veins,
Sets my cold frozen heart in flames.

I will give your fingers a gentle kiss,
And feel the texture of your skin.

--------------------------------------------------

I wish I had your hand in mine,
And hold on to it for the longest time.

Our hands no longer closely knit,
I feel you fingers slowly slip.

I will not let go, if you promise not to.
But if you do, I will give my blessings to you.

That is all that I can do,
All that I can do for you.

About Life.

There are so many ways that we can lead our lifes. There are so many paths to choose. But we are all so trained to take the path of those before us. This path is bright and wide. It is tried and tested. The path less taken is dark, narrow. But it is also mysterious, exciting, full of fantasy. I feel like I am standing at the crossroad. Where shall I go from here? Will I never get back to where I am? Shall I move on, or shall I wait? What am I waiting for? Who am I waiting for? So what if I never get back to where I am? But is it worth it? You travel as a pact at the beginning but soon you find your friends taking different paths. Will your paths ever meet again? Do you want your paths to meet or keep that past as a distant sweet memory?

Life is a trial. Life is never truly about meritocracy. It never will be. Fate, destiny, chance conspires. You are never truly the maker of your own destiny. In life, what you can do is to try your best. That assures you a certain success. Anything above that is really not within your control. Your place in life is half determined the moment you are born into this world, the moment you take your first breath. Some are born rich, some poor, some in the middle. Just look around you and observe. Order of life is testing for those who want to succeed. Some get it easy, some get it hard, some will never get it.

There is optimism yet. Someone once told me: Don't just reach for the sky. Reach for the stars. That way, even when you fall, you will fall among the clouds. The other half of life is in your(our) hands. We have to grasp hold of as much of destiny as we can. You never know until you try. Until you try!!

What in the world is happening!!!

Fuck no. 1
29th Nov. This has been a really frustrating week for me. The bad luck for the week just snowballed. It all started with the IF 2201 exam. I prepared so much material for this open book exam. I wanted so much to do well in this paper. But when it came to the real test, I did not use the materials I prepared at all. Instead I just regurgitated all the information in the lecture notes. I spent do much time on the 1st question that I only had 30 min left for the second.

Fuck no. 2
2nd Dec. Last day of exams. Finally finished my last paper. Went down to town to relax. Caught "The Incredibles"- Hilarious. Went to Sakae Sushi for sushi buffet after that. Had to queue up for a quite a while before we got our seats. Food was good and all. The buffet came with 2 portions of dessert and buffet and fruits per person. We were all already quite full by the time we got to the desserts. We each ordered 2 serving of BUD ice cream for our dessert. We got so full after the first serving that we has to force the 2nd serving down. Makan finish, we asked for the bill. Then the waitress told us that the dessert did not include BUD ice cream, and was actually some cheapo ice cream. Nobody mentioned this to us when ordered the BUD's ice cream. The waiters could have said something when they saw that we were ordering 2 servings of ice cream each. Luckily we managed to strike a compromise and had only to pay for half the price of the ice cream.

Fuck no. 3
3rd Dec. Just another ordinary day. Woke up at around 11am and started to pack for my coming trip, only to realize that my digital camera was not working. I couldn't switch the camera on even though I had just charged the batteries. This had to happen 2 days before my trip.

Big Fuck no. 4
Had to accompany(drive) my mum and my aunt to do some last minute shopping for the trip. We headed down to Parkway Parade after visiting some temple. We were happily shopping when I suddenly realized that my handphone was missing. Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck Fuck. I called up my own number. The phone rang but nobody picked it up. The third time I called, the phone was switched off. At that moment, I knew my phone was lost for good. I went back to the shops I had been to, but in vain. I want to thank the manager of Giordano for being so helpful and patient in allowing me to view their CCTV. After watching the CCTV and knowing that my phone was already lost before I entered Giordano. I became pretty sure that I had lost it at Bossini. Bossini staff did not allow me to view their CCTV and told me that I had to make a police report if I wanted to. They told me that they would check out the tape and keep me informed of what happened. 2 days had passed and I did not receive any phonecalls from them. I had to call Bossini up to find out what had happened. I called 5 times before I finally contacted the staff that served me. She told me that she had not even looked at the tape as she was busy. Fuck. My aunt came up with a conspiracy theory that their own staff had stolen the phone-but I think this is too extreme. I bought the phone only 1 month back (K700i) and I had to extend my contract for 2 years. Now I have to fucking lose it. Farewell my phone.....

In a few hours time, I will be leaving on a jet plane. I just hope the trip turns out well, especially after hearing the news that a typhoon had just hit Japan. Good luck to me.
