Ah another new year.
This familiar feeling of anticipation and exciting possibilities. Let it not turn sour so soon. Hah and I've let my pessimistic side take over. But only for a while.
This holidays (5 weeks), I've learnt so much about myself. Though only in theory. I'm raring to go put it in practice as the new term starts.
One of my sources of inspiration, recently, is this old classic manga, Kareshi Kanojou no Jijou (His and Her Circumstances). I can relate to the various characters well. A few nights ago, tears streamed down my face as i read it at mangafox.com. A drop even stained my tablecloth. I will look at the stain next time and remember my determination..
Also, why are some afraid of having their palms/futures read? Don't they know that those lines are inscribed in our hands, that literally, our own destinies are in our hands? Whenever I think of this, I clench my hands into fists and promise I will fight on.
After all, the greatest enemy will always be the self.
On to lighter things, this week (finally!) I've gotten into the full swing of holidays, with late night anime/manga sprees haha. Last night, I watched this new anime Kuroshitsuji (Dark Butler). Haish the 2 main characters are so cool! I even fan-girl squealed sometimes. :d It's so intoxicating. But only 10 subbed episodes are up when there should be 13 already.
This afternoon, there was a long awaited gathering with sec school friends. Realized that despite 8 years, my friends have not changed (to the eye). Though we have all became 'mei nu' haha, the essence remains the same. It is this familiar feeling that is comforting. And i finally got my birthday presents from them too. Spaghetti top with green crocheted edges (i like!), white blouse (hmm how to wear), very nice slim organizer with colour pencil illustrations, earrings, lip gloss, and a wood peg. I have also dusted off the presents that have been lying under my bed to give them away.
Just now, I made egg tarts. The filling was soggy :( The ready made pastry was tough to handle too. As a secret ingredient, I added cinnamon sugar to the filling mix. The whole thing came out in an unappealing colour (ehh durian-tart like) but there's a cinnamon fragrance. ^^
Very bloated now.
No new Kuroshitsuji episodes to watch. T^T
What shall i do to spend the night away, the first of the new year?
"Sunshine Day. I'm feeling really fresh. The sky is very fine. For today, even the wind smells sweet. As if something happy is going to happen. I feel fine even after all this long time. (of 20 years :d)"
Quote from my new birthday organizer. Has a cover of a smiling cat with a ribbon at its tail, in a laundry basket. A sunny, windy, bubbly day..
