A Life in Black and White

am not your usual lady in the neighbourhood. i could be fun-loving and ambitions blazing, yet chilling with a good book in hand. loves audrey hepburn movies, lemon-lime-&-bitters, vintage anything and furniture. am not one effortlessly impressed. i see my goals, my dreams and the enjoyment would lie not merely in the success at the end of the road but in this journey of life. livin` it, lovin` it, keepin` it real. i travel alone, i travel light, in my 20`s - la vie est belle!

the wish bone

Some people take a lifetime to find the right one. Others take many many years and still can't make it right. There're so many people hurting around me. I seem to have my opinions about everything but some things I can't comment on, only because I understand having gone through first-hand and I feel their pain. I remember how my heart broke when A and I broke up and my whole world collapsed. I didn't believe in love from then on. I figured why love someone so much when it's only going to make me become so possessive and so difficult to have things any other way? And then, my mind was made up.

God and life work in mysterious ways. We all grow up in time. We heal, we learn, we grow, we move on. I probably couldn't see it then but there's a reason for everything. That was probably a passing phase, like all the rest, to help get me to finding The One. I don't ask for the best. I just hope for what would suit me best. And if it comes, it is a raw bonus.

Late last night, we were just sitting down there at Coffee Bean after dinner with Pat and his wife and I had a moment. The moment just stalled in my mind and time came to a sudden standstill. I just so love hearing couples telling their love story. And one day, when mine's finally all written out, I hope I can tell it too. :)
