i want to believe

Filed under: Uncategorized — Nicholas @ 8:00 pm

Somehow, HIMYM isn’t as funny as it used to be. Maybe its because it’s becoming less and less of a spectacle, but more and more of a reflection. Somewhat. I still love the series though, despite its sometimes longwinded and crappy episodes.

“I used to believe in destiny, you know. I used to go to the bagel place, see a pretty girl in line reading my favourite novel, whistling the song that’s been stuck in my head the entire week, and I think ‘wow hey maybe she’s the one’. Now I think, I just know that bitch is going to take that last wholewheat everything bagel.”

“You’ve just been focused on work.”

“No, it’s more than that. I’ve stopped believing. *sigh* Not in that depressed I’m-gonna-cry-during-my-toast way, not in a way I even noticed until tonight. It’s just that everyday I… believe a little less…..and a little less… and a little less… and that… sucks. What do I do about that?”

Happy Birthday

Filed under: Issues Close to Heart — Nicholas @ 1:37 am

31/7 is always a special day for me.

Every year, on my birthday week, I would inevitably think of you. After so long, you’re still so unforgettable, even though there’s not much shared memories between the two of us. These few, however, still remain crystal clear till now. Alright, maybe it’s yellowed a little, and perhaps slightly faded.

Oh well, just reminiscing about the past, and what could have been. Happy 25th birthday  Jenn!

That old familiar ache

Filed under: Uncategorized — Nicholas @ 3:35 am

The older I get, the more I am convinced that it is all about fate.

By extension, I choose to believe that perhaps I’ve yet to mature/grow into the person I should be, and that maybe, just maybe, I’ve yet to accumulate enough good karma.

Discoveries

Filed under: Issues Close to Heart — Nicholas @ 11:04 pm

1. Had a vivid dream nearly 2 weeks ago. In that dream, for the first time, I held your hand (or any girl’s hand in the dream world for that matter) and it felt blissful. The trouble is, I’m still supposed to be getting over your good friend. If dreams are a reflection of the sub-conscious, then what does it say?

2. Last Sunday, I casually mentioned going out together to catch a movie together. You told me, hey I’m going for a date. My heart sank and I felt sick. It wasn’t supposed to sting that much, much less sink. In the end it turned out not to be an actual date, but I couldn’t concentrate the next 2 days.

3. Finally figured out the last piece of the puzzle in explaining my reluctance to take action in every situation so far. Apart from being risk-adverse and wimpy, there’s also fear. Not of rejection, but of myself, be it being in a relationship, or just being able to recover. I need more confidence in myself.

4. I feel lost this mid-term break. Partly because I’ve always looked forward to Monday mornings.

Did I let slip a chance? I feel like an idiot.
