apple October 30, 2008

I was munching on the customary apple-before-breakfast when I suddenly wondered,

What would an apple plant in a farm think if it found out that all its fruits were being harvested to be eaten by greedy humans like us (and whatever animals some humans feed apples to), and its undeveloped offsprings don’t ever get a chance to grow?

I’ve this warped belief that all things can think. Maybe just in a different way. Maybe we don’t need brains to think. Just that we think we can’t think without a brain hence we think that we need a brain to think. Or maybe apple trees have different kinds of brains. Maybe apple fruits are brains.

If I were the apple tree, I’d go on a strike and stop giving nutrients to the apple fruit (assuming it isn’t my brain) so that greedy humans won’t get to devour the fruits of my labour.

But I’m not. So I was happily eating my apple.

Life is full of mysteries.

You know I’m bored when I talk to my blog. i.e. I blog.

Anyway, you know sometimes when you stalk people (i.e. read their blogs but don’t tag hence the blogger actually doesn’t know you’re reading, or the blogger might not even know you at all..), and you want to know more about what that person is doing?

Like say the blogger doesn’t really specify but you want to know where he/she is or what course he/she is taking etc.

Some people silly-ly tag / post a comment as anonymous or various unnamed things like “-” or “passerby” or something.

Personally I wouldn’t respond to a tag like that, unless I’m feeling nice.

But I realised that, you could fake a name say “Michelle” – which is so common hence the blogger probably knows at least a Michelle, and ask whatever you want.

Assuming the blogger isn’t a rude asshole, and your question isn’t laced with lewdness, you’ll probably get your answer.

Even if the blogger doesn’t know which Michelle, or doesn’t even remember if he/she actually knows a Michelle, they’ll probably answer anyway.

Okay I’m being totally retarded.

quotes and icons October 29, 2008

just because I’m in the mood for the. (:

I want you to know, that I will always be there for you;
I will always be there to take care of you. I promise you that.
I will always be your friend.
- Spiderman

Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love,
the things you are, the things you never want to lose.
- The Wonder Years

I hope someday somebody wants to hold you for 20 minutes straight and that’s all they do. They don’t pull away. They don’t look at your face. They don’t try to kiss you. All they do is wrap you up in their arms without an ounce of selfishness in it.
- Waitress

Do whatever makes you happy,
but do it now.
Live life for the moment
because everything else is uncertain.

What is cute?
Cute is young and inexperienced.
Cute is holding hands in the car
& kissing at all the red lights.
That’s cute.Take advantage of what is right in front of you.

-

Be with somebody who
knows what they have
when they have you

————–
Tell me you’ll never forget me,
because if I thought you would, I would never leave.
-Winnie the Pooh

Too many people get caught up in what could be instead of appreciating what is. Don’t fall into that trap. Appreciate what you have and who you have because the future can take it all away from you.

Do quotes speak to you?

I have this really nice warm fuzzy feeling (something like the feeling I get when I eat a warm brownie (without icecream) ). Ahh speaking of which the brownie from the library isn’t sweet but it’s addictive. The last bite was the best.

And I can imagine Derek saying this,

“You’ll make a lousy anybody else, but you are the best you in existence. You’re the only one who can use your abilities. It’s an awesome responsibility.

Okay not the exact words but the gist of it.

Ah well.

It’s okay to want someone you can’t have.
It’s okay to keep friendships when you don’t want them, or want something more.
It’s okay to cry when you’re hurt, and it’s okay to stay mad at someone who hurt you.
Believe it or not, it’s always gonna be okay.

That’s just how it works.

Sometimes things don’t always work out the way you want them to, and a lot of times it seems like they never will.
But it’s okay, that how life’s suppose to go.
It’s all about learning how to deal with the bumpy parts in the road and waiting ’till they’re smooth again.
It’s all about forgiving and forgetting. It’s all about waiting and wishing.

That’s just how life is.

friends October 29, 2008

Friends are by choice, which makes friendships inherently fragile.

I was icon/quote surfing when I came across this quote about how:

Girl A thinks girl B is her best friend.

Girl B thinks girl C is her best friend.

Girl A found out after 8 years of feeling like a best friend, and she is upset.

I don’t know what the exact quote is but it was sad.

It’s hard to have the mutual “best friend” security eh.

You don’t exactly ask someone, “do you think I’m your best friend?” although you could ask “do you consider me a close friend?”

I’d rather not know.

nice quote October 28, 2008

“I was half in love with her by the time we sat down. That’s the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they’re not much to look at, or even if they’re sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. Girls. Jesus Christ. They can drive you crazy. They really can.” ~Holden Caulfield

Matthew stop emoing.

Awesome quote anyway, thanks!
