afterthoughts

2012-02-12T23:32:00.001+08:00

She went online to look for her jetsam.

1489.

2012-02-09T10:29:00.001+08:00

Restless in class.

1488.

2012-02-08T14:42:00.003+08:00

Sometimes she felt clever, sometimes she felt dumb.

1487.

2012-02-08T14:42:00.001+08:00

Sometimes she liked to be noisy, sometimes she liked to be quiet.

1486.

2012-02-08T14:41:00.001+08:00

She said, why are you so clever, but really, it wasn't very clever at all.

1485.

2012-02-08T14:36:00.003+08:00

She rather liked the quiet cocoon of the exam store.

1484.

2012-02-08T14:36:00.001+08:00

Sometimes all she had to look forward to was a yellow stapler.

1483.

2012-02-03T20:55:00.001+08:00

In my sky at twilight you are like a cloud
and your form and colour are the way I love them.
You are mine, mine, woman with sweet lips
and in your life my infinite dreams live.

1482.

2012-01-06T17:42:00.001+08:00

Happy Christmas little potato! :)

1481.

2012-01-06T17:41:00.004+08:00

I love you

1480.

2012-01-06T17:41:00.001+08:00

remember me for I am there.

1479.

2012-01-06T17:40:00.002+08:00

every time this watch you wear,

1478.

2012-01-06T17:40:00.000+08:00

from yours with the shock of hair:

1477.

2012-01-06T17:36:00.003+08:00

For my baby Girl,

1476.

2012-01-01T00:14:00.000+08:00

In 2011, she met the person who could possibly be the love of her life.

1475.

2011-12-30T23:38:00.001+08:00

They had lunch at Binjai Park.

1474.

2011-12-30T23:06:00.000+08:00

She didn't know where the words came from.

1473.

2011-12-30T23:05:00.001+08:00

See you tomorrow bunny-in-a-burrow!

1472.

2011-12-25T01:29:00.001+08:00

Christmas morn, and she was in love.

1471.

2011-12-10T13:29:00.001+08:00

Time for a post-prandial nap!

1470.

2011-12-10T13:25:00.001+08:00

She called the chicken rice that she brought her to eat magnificent!

1469.

2011-11-13T10:19:00.001+08:00

She spent the morning paying every bill conceivable.

1467.

2011-11-12T14:39:00.001+08:00

Two grown boys under a multicoloured umbrella.

1466.

2011-11-11T11:32:00.001+08:00

Dear Ellie, You have notifications pending. Facebook team.

1465.

2011-11-08T15:41:00.000+08:00

Watching her sleep.

1464.

2011-11-05T22:45:00.001+08:00

Where is Tracy Williams?

1463.

2011-11-05T22:38:00.001+08:00

Suddenly, the smell of bacon.

1462.

2011-11-02T23:07:00.001+08:00

She wondered if all she did was to ruin lives.

1461.

2011-11-02T20:41:00.001+08:00

Her love came as a whole pack of guava and a huge slice of pineapple.

1460.

2011-11-02T20:16:00.000+08:00

The first sip warmed her head.

1459.

2011-11-02T20:15:00.002+08:00

No point saving it, frankly.

1458.

2011-11-02T20:15:00.001+08:00

She opened the bottle of red wine and poured herself a glass.

1457.

2011-11-02T20:14:00.003+08:00

That's more than the number of afterthoughts here.

1456.

2011-11-02T20:14:00.001+08:00

They had exchanged 2,976 messages and 25 photos in the span of a year.

1455.

2011-10-24T20:16:00.001+08:00

They had a precise, efficient conversation over their half-an-hour lunch.

1454.

2011-10-08T19:27:00.000+08:00

She wished she could be light-hearted.

1453.

2011-10-08T18:52:00.002+08:00

She told him that she felt morbid too.

1452.

2011-10-08T18:52:00.001+08:00

He told her that exams reminded him of trench warfare.

1451.

2011-10-08T18:51:00.001+08:00

The days grew dark and the shadows grew long.

1450.

2011-10-08T18:50:00.001+08:00

Because the kids couldn't see themselves clearly, she had to envision it for them.

1449.

2011-10-02T19:35:00.000+08:00

But this was by far the saddest of the three.

1448.

2011-10-02T19:32:00.000+08:00

And for the first time in his life, the 18 year-old pondered whether to have a $30 haircut.

1447.

2011-10-02T19:30:00.006+08:00

She never thought that after working for 35 years she would come to a point where she would not have enough money for a MacDonald's breakfast.

1446.

2011-10-02T19:29:00.002+08:00

To her dismay, she realised that she had no money in her wallet.

1445.

2011-09-22T21:53:00.000+08:00

She slouched on the chair with her shorts pulled way above her belly button.

1444.

2011-09-18T10:45:00.001+08:00

Chocolate and strawberry.

1443.

2011-09-15T10:43:00.001+08:00

I think I'll have me a wang wang.

1442.

2011-09-11T13:18:00.001+08:00

She couldn't be a fruit seller. She wouldn't know what to do with the rotting fruit.

1441.

2011-09-11T13:17:00.000+08:00

She couldn't be a butcher. She couldn't kill a chicken.

1440.

2011-09-11T13:16:00.001+08:00

She couldn't be a prostitute. She couldn't sleep with someone for money.

1439.

2011-09-11T13:14:00.001+08:00

She couldn't be a cashier. She liked sitting down.

1438.

2011-09-11T12:02:00.001+08:00

Just when she thought the couple were too absorbed in their own food to notice each other, the guy put a piece of bak kut in the girl's bowl, and just as quickly, the girl put it back in his.

1437.

2011-09-11T11:53:00.001+08:00

Yet, being emotionally expressive is not the same thing as having faith.

1436.

2011-09-11T11:49:00.001+08:00

Personally, she preferred standing or kneeling, with hands lifted up.

1435.

2011-09-11T11:46:00.000+08:00

Position engenders attitude.

1434.

2011-09-11T11:35:00.000+08:00

Some dance, some sing -- it is all the same, really.

1433.

2011-09-11T11:30:00.001+08:00

Because they did not lift their hands, they put everything they had in the songs they sang.

1432.

2011-09-09T22:59:00.001+08:00

She needed to hear her voice so that she could learn to be strong as well.

1431.

2011-09-08T16:46:00.001+08:00

Does love always involve an element of risk?

1430.

2011-09-08T13:39:00.001+08:00

She was dressed to be undressed.

1429.

2011-09-07T18:19:00.001+08:00

mis_nomer loves you.

1428.

2011-09-03T10:21:00.000+08:00

hold your toe! | hold you close!

1427.

2011-09-03T10:20:00.003+08:00

10011101011011010101011

(that says, eye heart ewe)

1426.

2011-09-03T10:20:00.001+08:00

o ou a!

1425.

2011-09-03T10:19:00.000+08:00

They spoke in vowels.

1424.

2011-08-30T00:01:00.000+08:00

Freudian slips — chicks and coke! clean and lick! click and poke! clit and spoke!

1423.

2011-08-29T20:26:00.001+08:00

She was a little lost without her.

1422.

2011-08-29T14:52:00.001+08:00

Christmas songs are strangely comforting.

1421.

2011-08-25T08:28:00.001+08:00

Between the black sky and the blue, I love you.

1420.

2011-08-16T11:56:00.001+08:00

HQ is mad.

1419.

2011-08-14T11:49:00.000+08:00

Friedman's penchant for mixed metaphors: when the walls came down and the windows went up.

1418.

2011-08-14T11:25:00.001+08:00

Writing defers madness.

1417.

2011-08-14T11:24:00.003+08:00

A bag full of ants.

1416.

2011-08-14T11:24:00.001+08:00

A pocket full of red pens.

1415.

2011-08-01T14:09:00.000+08:00

Reconvening at 3:30pm.

1414.

2011-07-28T20:13:00.001+08:00

You step out of the door and I think, "I miss you."

1413.

2011-07-26T21:18:00.000+08:00

Smelly shoes at the door. :)

1412.

2011-07-24T18:37:00.000+08:00

She was lazy. She didn't want to do anything.

1411.

2011-07-22T08:28:00.001+08:00

Hostel living rocks.

1410.

2011-07-22T08:27:00.002+08:00

Perhaps she only thought so because knowing that it wasn't about her was a weight off her shoulders.

1409.

2011-07-22T08:27:00.001+08:00

Perhaps it would have been like a weight lifted off his shoulders.

1408.

2011-07-22T08:26:00.002+08:00

She wondered if he had been told earlier if it would have made a difference.

1407.

2011-07-22T08:26:00.001+08:00

She wanted to tell Colin that it wasn't about him.

1406.

2011-07-22T08:24:00.001+08:00

A sign in a magazine: Coffee drinkers make better lovers.

1405.

2011-07-19T08:19:00.001+08:00

Perhaps not.

1404.

2011-07-19T08:18:00.001+08:00

The name shifted persons.

1403.

2011-07-19T08:16:00.001+08:00

She went crazy with the stickers.

1402.

2011-07-19T08:15:00.002+08:00

And now she would get back to work.

1401.

2011-07-19T08:15:00.001+08:00

They laughed about their psycho goldfish.

1400.

2011-07-19T08:14:00.001+08:00

And when she woke up for a bit, there was hot water by her bedside.

1399.

2011-07-19T08:13:00.000+08:00

While she slept, her girlfriend did two loads of laundry, washed the dishes, and ironed her clothes.

1398.

2011-07-19T08:12:00.000+08:00

She said it felt like her first time.

1397.

2011-07-17T13:57:00.001+08:00

They each had two states: happy-sad and content-discontent.

1396.

2011-07-17T12:18:00.000+08:00

She said she worked like a man.

1395.

2011-07-10T18:08:00.003+08:00

Heck. I will bring you back.

1394.

2011-07-10T18:08:00.001+08:00

She played the piano like one of those wind-up music boxes.

1393.

2011-07-02T19:58:00.001+08:00

She called her a rare unicorn.

1392.

2011-07-02T19:57:00.003+08:00

Grammar rule 33: double negatives are a no-no.

1391.

2011-07-02T19:57:00.001+08:00

When she wasn't with her, it felt as if her life was on pause.

1390.

2011-06-26T14:59:00.000+08:00

Om nom is impervious to gravity.
