just another day

In usual conversations, our boss would tell us story about his youngest child. We end up telling him that he is his favorite which he constantly denies having a favorite child and that he loves them all equally. Parents will never admit having a favorite child. Do they really have one or we just thought so.

All I know is that I am never the favorite child. I am the distant one, the Rebel and the unattached. But, I must say, I am the favorite granddaugther.

ocean and sky

Nothing is as magical as the ocean and the sky. And to where I was? I was in between. Was it the ocean reflecting on the sky or was it the sky reflecting on the ocean? Is it the blue of the sky or the calm of the ocean that draws you to stare?

reminds me of Discovery Channel commercial "The World is just Awesome"

i'd like some ice cream

and the question is, did she get the ice cream?

so many things to do, so little time

this Year

I have always loved Serendipity for many different reasons. I personally believe that it is the most romantic movie of this era. It has the-music-to-my ears movie soundtrack. And I love the word itself. "Serendipity. It's one of my favorite words. It's such a nice sounding word for what it means: a fortunate accident."

While driving, the movie soundtrack was playing in the background. And suddenly my attention was caught by the message of the song "This Year by Chantal Kreviazuk". Right there, I declared that this is my song. A personal affirmation that this year is my year.

This year, is gonna be incredible
This year, is gonna be the one
All the planets are lining up for me
This year, I'm gonna have fun
This year, I'll paint my masterpiece
This year, I'll be recognized
I can feel like I'll fall in love for real
This year, this year
January, I'll learn to fly
February, love's gonna find me
March, April, May, I'll get carried away
Oh, oh...This year, I'll reach the pinnacle
This year, I'll get to the top
People will ask where she get that energy
This year, I'm never gonna stop
I'm gonna have fun
Just watch me now
This year

true enough last year was a great year. i still believe that this year is my year. and for years to come, i will forever hold on to the song for my self -- this Year. And coincidently, Chantal Kreviazuk's birthday falls on May 18 as well c",)

where these wings will take me

as i wander around, i ask myself what's ahead of me. felt like i am a stranger in this world and often times i wonder if i belong here.

the journey seems endless. i don't want to go yet i never want to stay either. i am tired but i wanna move on.

... and to where these wings will take me, i hope one day i will finally find home.
