Reality is better than any other thing

IN A NUTSHELL

Most awesome weekend ever! Two lovely packages + Sarah's debut + Sleepover with Adelfa and Camia girls + Fort Santiago + MOA! :)

Also, new beginnings.


NO ONE LAUGHS AT LOVE

I’m gonna write from the soul
Though you don’t deserve a song
And I shall cry my heart out
Until I laugh at love no more

You can achieve anything
That you put your heart and mind into?
Well, it’s not at all true
And it’s all because of you

You remind me of
Stolen glances
Happy places
Bittersweet moments
But mostly sad endings.

What do I remind you of?
Nothing.

And I can’t even write now because of the rolling karaoke
And the glistening water in my face
And the uncomfortable sensation from too much walking
But no
Mostly, it’s because I’ve ran out of songs

You are no longer my song

Ha-ha, ha-ha
Taking cue from Regina Spektor and whispering
(silently whimpering)
my very last song for you

No one laughs at love when it seems like forever
No one laughs at love when everything’s okay
No one’s laughing at love when God has made way for what seems to be the best story as of yet

But love could be funny
When your mind is tired
And your knees are shaking
And your heart is crying
Out of shame, regret and longing

Ha-ha, ha-ha
What could be more futile than love
Than a fertile ground in forever, frozen

A SHORT BUT IMPORTANT ANECDOTE
My family and I went to Mall of Asia to ice skate, but then there was no room for us since too many people visit on Sundays. So instead, I made hints that we should watch a movie in IMAX instead. It seems as though they didn't like the idea though. I felt kinda :| (how do I describe the feeling), but when I saw the beautiful sunset and the glistening sea, I did not protest anymore. Why settle for virtual reality, when you can have reality?

And, on a similar note, why waste time on things that cannot be, when you can choose to be happy?
