Break Up

(of a couple) end a relationship.

A new day begins. You wake up from your awful sleep. You’re partly covered in sheets, and as you open your eyes and regain your senses, you remember that you are now single again.

You spend the rest of your day at work, doing household chores, shopping with friends or alone, or other things. Regardless of what you do, carrying out any of these things feel a bit different, as you’re single again.

Everywhere you go or look, you see him or her. Even when you’re doing something, your mind will wander off to him or her eventually. You miss the person. You wonder what they are doing or how they are doing now.

Even when you are in the company of someone, be it friends, family, or co-workers, you still think of the person. Even when your company could potentially help you to keep your mind off of the person, you wish you could just go into your room and shut yourself from the outside world just to reserve and devote some moments and time to think about him or her, even when you shouldn’t be doing that.

You wish you could be back with the person. You feel that as if your world is crumbling, and part of you is missing since the day the announcement was made. At times you just resent him or her, sometimes you think to yourself why and how did everything go wrong and things ended up like this.

You feel very lonely in this world, even when there are people around you. You feel as if no one understands you now. Your world collapses, and you make no effort to restore it, and instead you just watch it burn down to the ground and to ashes. Yet you’re still alive, but still feel lonely.

You wish you could talk to him or her, to discuss about the things between the two of you. You want to know why did it happen, you want to know if there’s any possible way of the two of you getting back together. You still couldn’t get over the break up.

That person was gone from your life. You could be covering that hole with anything right now; social life, hobbies, work and etc., but at the end of the day, you still think of the person.

When all else fails, you are alone in your room again, and you realise that you will never get the person back into your life anymore. You are now depressed and melancholic: this is one of the darkest times of your life. People might reach out to you, or they didn’t, but you think life is all over now.

Months or years have passed by, and that’s when you finally realised that life isn’t over yet. That person may be long gone, but life still goes on. You’re still alive. Now you feel as if you gotta get up on your own feet and continue to live your life.

Like they always say “Life is short”, now you gotta listen to that, don’t you? It’s not the end of the world. And now you realise that you haven’t been loving yourself as much as you should, but it’s not too late because you can still do that.

When you wake up again, you smile and think to yourself that he or she may be gone, but you and your dreams have not.

Maybe there’s no one for me in this world. Maybe I am meant to be alone. Maybe love isn’t the main objective of my life. Maybe he or she will come back to you in the future. When that happens, you will be ready.

Crazy Rich Asians

I was brought to a cinema to watch Crazy Rich Asians, and it was better than I expected. I didn't hear of it until I heard my friend was talking about it. At first, I was thinking to myself that this movie will just be another non-realistic view of the life of a rich Asian, a life that is too good to be true and too costly for one to bear. However, my opinions changed after I watched this movie. All I can say is that everyone has problems; even rich people have them, but different of course.

I think this movie is quite good, nice to watch with friends, and it has a good touch on Asians' funny moments. I gotta say, I used to enjoy watching movies in cinemas, but after some mishaps and bad experiences, I refrain myself from watching movies in cinemas. I wouldn't have watched this movie if it wasn't for my friend; he absolutely loves watching movies, so I was taken along, and I didn't regret going to the cinema to watch this film, because it's really nice.

When You Disappear

Today is the 7th of July, and it's about to be over soon.

Time flies, life goes on, things change, and you were gone.

When you disappear, you took part of me away with you. Life is like a stage, and now I don't know how to keep the show going on. It's always hard to let go, can you teach me how? I remember I always asked for your opinion, I'm practically lost now without you.

At least you leaving me gives me a reason to be back - because I have no other purpose apart from returning to my hobby of blogging.

To the Sun that is Setting/Horizon

One situation ends and another situation begins. I guess that's how you could define life in a way. They always say that life is a journey, like being in a car and driving down the road; which could be bumpy, curvy, straight, narrow and so much more. And that is true.

But in the end, all that matters is that we are happy with the outcomes of our lives. To end my degree life at university and cheer for my new adult, working life, I present to you this song by none other than Pendulum. God their songs are amazing.

This song was created in 2005, featuring TC, Will Carlton, and Fats. Isn't this song amazing?

Lone Survivor (game)

The retro style and settings as illustrated in the game, as well as a simple yet attention-catching storyline have all made Lone Survivor another one-of-a-kind masterpiece to be remembered by fans of games all over the world. What captured and intrigued me was the music; which was a combination of the style of the 80's and the 90's with some jazz fusion within the mix. One of my favourite tracks from the game is called Home:

Music by Jasper Byrne - many kudos and thanks to him.

As a viewer of games and non-player of most games, I sometimes do prefer to sit back and enjoy the games themselves than playing them. There may be some things that I am yet to figure out in games, but that doesn't stop me from loving them and looking forward to even more. Video games have a way of allowing the gamers and spectators to immerse within their story and gameplay; many thanks to game creators and those who have been making it possible for us to enjoy these beautiful works.
