Music To Turn To

  • May. 18th, 2012 at 10:19 PM
I think everyone has their own particular set of songs to get them through the different phases of life.
The songs that they'll always listen to.
The songs that'll remind them of now when they listen to it 10 years from now.
Now, 10 years from now, I cannot fathom when my exams is 10 days from now.

The Three or Probably Four Faces of Power

  • May. 16th, 2012 at 1:28 AM
'The third face of power (preference- shaping) introduces the concept of false consciousness. The problem with such a formulation is the deeply condescending conception of the social subject as an ideological dupe that it conjures. Not only is this wretched individual incapable of perceiving his/ her true interests, s/he is pacified by the hallucinogenic effects of the bourgeoisie indoctrination.'

                                                       -Colin Hay, Divided by a Common Language? Conceptualising Power (2002)

'Power = Energy / Time'
                                                       -Loh Wan Xin, One of His Many Witty Rebuttals (2012)

疲れた!
今日はよく勉強したから、とても眠たいです。

晩ご飯は私が作ったパスタをたべました。
おいしくなかっても、全部で食べました。

今政治を勉強しています。
Feminism は読まなければなりませ。
頑張ります!

Come What May

Fretting over deadlines
Time is in our hands, yet it always seems to slip away so quickly and before we know it, it's gone. Like fine sand falling between our fingers.
Clasp our hands tighter, and take control. Don't be a wreck. Don't fret.
Time is in our hands.

Caring too much
Sometimes, we concern ourselves too much with others. We miss opportunities and chances that rarely, if ever, come by. The world has so much potential to be tapped into, and you're missing it. Stop caring so much for others, and start to think more for yourself. What have you always wanted? What are you fighting for?

(Whatever happened to my traveling dreams?)

Seeking solace, seeking comfort
It's okay to cuddle in the comforts of your bed. It's totally fine to have meals alone. It's good to travel on your own. Being alone helps one to think, independently. It clears one's mind and refreshes the soul. It helps one to realise that you can do without anyone, and everyone. Time heals all wounds. With time, people who think that they have been irrevocably scarred will come out of adversities stronger and ever more resilient. 

Loving ourselves more
Most importantly, start loving ourselves more. We get so busy with everyone and everything around us that we tend to forget and neglect ourselves. This life is yours to live, live it like how you've always wanted it to. Take risks, jump at chances and make mistakes. It's totally okay. Whatever it is, we should all start loving ourselves more. 

I should start loving myself.
