Michael Jackson.
I know this is rather late but i guess it really kicks in when you know and see him in a casket.
He was an amazing entertainer and his legacy will live on.
It’s weird referring in a past tense. But anyways, as any 80’s child would confess that we were huge fans of MJ. I personally loved everything of his. It was the first songs i knew apart from nursery rhymes that is. I remember watching Moonwalker at awe for a zillion times and regardless how many times it’s been i was always at awe and swore i hated the kids that were in it for they were in his presence. Heck, i remember being so incredibly upset when my parents told me they couldn’t afford tickets to watch him live. Also i remember me and my sister would imitate his dance moves. I could never do the moonwalk but my sister did. I only got to master his signature spin and of course the iconic pose of being on his toes. It’s no secret i was a fan.
There’s so many childhood memories that was accompanied by his music and of course his creativity and thus his legacy will live on.
And now the spotlight bestows on an empty stage and an empty mic.
He was the greatest entertainer there was and there will never be another.
Rest In Peace.
P.S: To some he was strange, to me he was different. He displayed individuality and that it’s okay to be different. so just leave him alone already.
Listen.
I don’t expect you to do nothing but just listen.
that’s it.
i mean it.

A Prayer.
Lord, protect our doubts, because Doubt is a way of praying. It is Doubt that makes us grow because it forces us to look fearlessly at the many answers that exist to one question.And in order for this to be possible…
Lord, protect our decisions, because Decisions is a way of praying. Give us the courage, after our doubts, to be able to choose between one road and another. May our YES always be a YES, and our NO always be a NO. Once we have chosen our road, may we never look back nor allow our soul to be eaten away by remorse. And in order for this to be possible…
Lord, protect our actions, because Action is a way of praying. May our daily bread be the result of the very best that we carry within us. May we, through work and Action, share a little of the love we receive. And in order for this to be possible…
Lord, protect our dreams, because to Dream is a way of praying. Make sure that, regardless of our age or our circumstances, we are capable of keeping alight in our heart the sacred flame of hope and perserverance. And in order for this to be possible…
Lord, protect our enthusiasm, because Enthusiasm is a way of praying. It is what binds us to the Heaven and to Earth, to grown-ups, and to children; it is what tells us that our desires are important and deserve our best efforts. It is Enthusiasm that reaffirms to us that everything is possible, as long as we are totally committed to what we are doing.And in order for this to be possible…
Lord, protect our us, because Life is the only way we have of making manifest Your miracle. May the earth continue to transform seeds into wheat, may we continue to transmute wheat into bread. And this is only possible if we have Love; therefore, do not leave us in solitude. Always give us Your company, and the company of men and women who have doubts, who act and dream and feel enthusiasm, and who live each day as if it were totally dedicated to Your glory.
Amen
P.S: Had a really bad day and just decided to flip through Like the Flowing River by Paulo Coelho and came across this. Hit me real hard. Never quite believed in praying but perhaps it’s worth a try.
i ain’t bloody calling!
note to dear friends,
just so you know i try my best to keep in touch. i do occasionally send out messages to check how you’re doing and such. i might not be able to see you as often as i like but i still try to make an effort to do so. everytime i do say hello or in certain cases refer to you as an ‘ass’ or ‘dumbfuck’ it does mean i do care and i effing miss you.
apart from that, i’m tired of excuses of being busy and preoccupied for work and studies isn’t suppose to drown you. you might claim that i have alot of free time but i recall being caught with work and studies and yet i always made time for friends with no excuses and no questions asked. i try my best to always be there when i’m needed as well as when i’m not.
i find it sad to see that everyone’s just starting to get plain ignorant and forgetting what are friendships for. it would be deemed useless if you expect people to be there just when required and not give a shit if they aren’t.
all i’m saying is that, despite how busy life can get let’s not forget the people around us that has been with us throughout the good and the bad times. not so much forgetting but neglecting due to illogical excuses. work and all is not suppose to drown you. life’s not meant to be like that.
i’m tired of hearing “i’m sorry i can’t make it because of this work and that work and i’ll make it up to you”. show some effort. it’s not that hard.
all i know, is i’m tired of being the idiot that keeps trying to do so.
i’m just gonna sit my ass down and wait.
thank you.
satisfaction.
well, as you all turned out the lights for earth hour i just turned out the lights n left home and wound up shopping. but wait, there’s a catch. the store i went to was in support of Earth Hour so lights out shopping. well, not entirely pitch black but can see la. being a blind bat shopping isn’t the idea.
anyways, what could be better than shopping for lingerie and to top it off a huge ass discount? For that hour, storewide 60% off. Sounds like perfection i know.
what makes it awesome is when it comes to shopping for me the top items are shoes and lingerie. why? well, shoes stay the same size whether u go fat or thin. it doesn’t matter. it always makes you feel good. as for lingerie, every woman needs to splurge a lil’ on it. trust me, you could be wearing the ugliest looking t-shirt that you got free or stole from boyfriend or anything hideous but with the right stuff underneath it all you’d feel so darn good about yourself. makes sense to me. if it don’t to you, try it before arguing with me about it.
anyways, earth hour well spent. lights out and shopping whilst in support of it?
Pure satisfaction.
turning twenty two.

Valentine’s.
i know i’m a little late for this but to all, Happy belated Valentine’s.
well, my valentine’s day as usual hasn’t changed. it always turns out being a mess but for the past two years of it now it turns out being a mess and then it goes perfect. not entirely perfect but it’s the little things that count, no?
to my fellow women out there, here’s something. every once in awhile it’s alright to turn the tables around and buy your man flowers and the card and the gift and even dinner. it’s not how nature runs it’s course but the results is priceless. even a man about to erupt could turn into the perfect angel you’d love. not to say by doing so you’re suppose to up your expectations that far but it’s something well worth doing.
just so you know, that’s what i did. i might be financially setback abit but what the hell.
so conclusion of it all is..
i had a good valentine’s. not perfect but just knowing the fact that he’s well worth it is priceless.
screw the million bucks i could’ve won from anything because i’d rather have him.
thank you.
Loves Hippo!
P.S: hope you’ve had a good valentine’s.
Strawberries & Champagne.
Dear friends,
I am desperately seeking for this.
If you do come across it or have any clue of where to get it please do let me know.
I am desperate.
Why?
It’s my favourite as well as my man’s and I can’t seem to locate one. Also I’m running on my last few drops of it and no other would do justice.
So please if you do please let me know.
Thank you.
With love…
P.S: Happy Chinese New Year! 
)
the new year.
happy new year.
somewhat officially.
so it comes down to the resolution for the year.
i know the usual thing is where i make my usual statement saying,
“i resolute to not resolute for it ALWAYS gets screwed.”
well, for this year i tried something different. more like i was convinced to try something different thanks to a certain someone so we resoluted to..
Eat less;
Drink less;
Smoke less.
Sounds good don’t it?
well, it’s going pretty okay so far. drinking less don’t apply to me for i ain’t drinking. smoking less i don’t really know but eating less is definitely working its way through. so wish me luck!
P.S: i know it all sounds very unlikely but who cares? stop being a bitch about my life and fix your own. thank you.
