been listening to old music for the past hour.. lol.

this one's beginning is a little corny.. be warned.....


i remember this song from sometime last summer. i heard it on the bus to impact camp i think. the song's really nice. dunno if i like the video especially


<3

okay so its still the summer at home, i'm working and hanging out with family and trying to be smart about stuff. also, I have been listening to music more lately...

I came home a couple days ago for summer break! I'm in houston for a month and a half, before I leave again for ny. so far, it's been swell :) I've been sleeping a lot, driving around, and working. I really like hanging out with my brother, and watching lots of movies with my sister. I got to see some old friends too, which is nice. My mom is going to asia in a few days with my grandparents, so our family has decided to do something really nice before she leaves <3 Also, if one day, you wake up and your neck is hurting, and you can't get up or turn your head, or even move, ...ask your mother to get you some milk and vitamin c, and after a few days of drinking that with every meal, don't worry it will be fine.

"Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in
the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies,
you've got about a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I
know of, babies—God damn it, you've got to be kind."
-Kurt Vonnegut

I am coming to Houston in ten days. can't wait to see charlotte russe, and bay oaks, the golf course, friends, and family, ..even the ford escort. lol. gonna miss cheng.
I talked to Oliver just now.. it's getting so late and it's hard to keep the eyes open. actually that might be the allergies.. also I wake up too early and sleep too late, I think.

“To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket- safe, dark, motionless, airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.”
("The Four Loves" by C.S. Lewis)

I miss my book of Walt Whitman..

"Trippers and askers surround me,

People I meet, the effect upon me of my early life or the ward and city I live in, or the nation,
The latest dates, discoveries, inventions, societies, authors old and new,
My dinner, dress, associates, looks, compliments, dues,
The real or fancied indifference of some man or woman I love,
The sickness of one of my folks or of myself, or ill-doing or loss or lack of money, or depressions or exaltations,
Battles, the horrors of fratricidal war, the fever of doubtful news, the fitful events;
These come to me days and nights and go from me again,
But they are not the Me myself."

"People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away."

Happy Easter :)

Freud to Marie Bonaparte, "The great question that has never been answered and which I have not been able to answer, despite my thiry years of research into the feminine soul, is 'What does a woman want?' "
