stuck

Sometimes I feel so over it.

A breath of fresh air is what I want.

But there's no where to go.

wow

way to kick off my special day.

since my family won't say it,

happy birthday to me.

oh joy.

Balancing a lazy lifestyle of uni and work is harder than I thought. After last semester, I'm thinking I should take the lazy out of my life. And I thank the two of you, for constantly pushing and reminding me to s t u d y (:

I appreciate!

I honestly would watch it again. Despite not being able to hear the lyrics at some parts of the show, it was still freakin good. The characters were incredibly well played, Jemma Rix in particular has an amazing voice. I'd sit through it again just to hear her sing. To think every night for the last month they've been coming on stage with the same enthusiasm and energy as they did the very first night it started. I enjoyed myself thoroughly.

My friend commented today that she would have liked to see Elphaba rid herself of her green. I argued that there was a beauty in her staying green - Fiyero's love for her, regardless of what she looked like. I mean, it would have been great if she had browned and she and Fiyero went on to have beautiful brown babies but the statement of love on both their parts would have been less significant, I think.

Wicked.

So awesome.

A friend sent me a video of a wedding proposal. The boyfriend, now fiance, interrupted a lecture with a powerpoint presentation and sweet story of how they met and fell in love. Four years ago today, she caught his eye in that lecture theatre. He said hi, she said hi, and fast forward to today. Then in front of a full lecture theatre, he proposed to his girlfriend - now fiancee.

"Here we are, just a man standing in front of a woman. Asking her to love him. Will you be my friend forever?

Will you marry me?"

What a gigantic gesture of love, and hope.

I doubt I would ever have the courage to leave my heart hanging on my sleeve the way this guy did. Then again, in doing so, he's got his heart's desire.

songs

Currently very very into Lenka's Knock Knock and Demi Lovato's Skyscraper.

Also, discovered a band called Marianas Trench last night, am liking it!

Ps. Jon McLaughlin is very the good. In terms of talent, and looks(with short hair). :D

lesson 101

I need to learn to let go. Of things, of people, of wants. Not to sound dramatic, but sometimes resistance really is futile. In this case, I mean resistance to change. I may not show it, but I'm trying to hold on and I've realised its become quite a selfish act. And this applies to a lot of happenings in my life. There is no snigle person, there are people (and say this in a platonic sense, mostly). There is no single thing, there are things. So yes, I think I need to learn to let go.

.

Some days I wish someone, anyone, could wrap their arms around me. And that we could stay like that, together in peaceful comfort for a while.

Okay maybe not, if I smelled a raggedy old man with arms wide open coming my way I'd probably-no, definitely-run.

Going a little loopy.
