"Have I told you about the tension of opposites?" he says.
The tension of opposites?
''Life is a series of pulls back and forth. You want to do one thing, but you are bound to do something else. Something hurts you, yet you know it shouldn't. You take certain things for granted, even when you know you should never take anything for granted.
"A tension of opposites, like a pull on a rubber band. And most of us live somewhere in the middle."
Sounds like a wrestling match, I say.
'A wrestling match." He laughs. "Yes, you could describe life that way."
So which side wins, I ask.
"Which side wins?"
He smiles at me, the crinkled eyes, the crooked teeth.
"Love wins. Love always wins."

Musical Evening was such a total blast, yesterday was amazing. Almost the whole day was so funzfunzfunz, I think the performance went well too. I felt we did really well, better than yog. Joanna says that she's jealous of our dance cause it's so nice, omg thank you so much for saying that. Feels surreal, all the best for cultural pot, dear! When Tammy, Me, Xinwei, Sandra, Jingwen, Nikki & Yongqi went to greet the guests, was so fun too, yaayyy. Tammy's mother is really CUTE HAHA totally like Seungjo's mother! She was like hiding behind Xinwei and snapping pictures at Tammy, and kept going, "Oh one more, one more *click*. Just one more. *click* Last one! *click*" HAHA. Ok rest of the photos on facebook.
Today I went for PA, was alright. Today is such a boring day :( I think it's because God wants to make things fair, since I had such a brilliant day yesterday I should have a boring one today to even out the weekend. Today is not that bad though, though I am quite sad that this week is over (I thought on monday, "This week is going to be so fun, looking forward to it.").
Hmmm, funny, I feel super weird now. Like... I can't describe the feeling but it's strange... feels like:
"Something keeps me holding on to nothing."
Come on, get higher

PA yesterday was so fun omg, and totally crowded thanks to our lovely batch '13.
Came back & was sick though, was already feeing a bit sick there, oh well.
Anyway, this week is so totally lovely, looking forward to living in this week. Ps, this Saturday is musical evening, you should come cause the dances are really cool!! Excited for a lot of things, yay yay yay yay yay.
Cheryl, Isabelle, Weining (Hi amelia.), Rachel & Lyink want to come over and bake!! Baking is good for everybody. Yesterday Charmz & I almost got conned by an old lady at Lavender mrt, scary much. Charmz just mentioned, "Oh I've seen you around before." and she fled, ahhh typical typical. Though yesterday was far from anything typical that happened to me in a long time.
"Wasn't it easier in your firefly catching days?"
Yay for good days.

I like elevator buttons and morning air and walks in the park and science fiction movies and romance novels and long phone calls and strawberry ice cream and family and friends and colourful things and rock candy and watching movies and rainy days and post it notes and polaroid shots and long letters and poems and heart-to-hearts and long conversations about nothing and everything and dance and you.
