Lead Me.

How many romances have bloomed upon the dancefloor? How many have ended there? It can be the most wonderful place to lose yourself... in the music, in the moment. Where it can truely be just the two people and everyone else is just a blur. 

It is there that I truely fell for him. It is there that I'll always remember him. It is there that we'll never be again.



it only takes a pair
to fill a dancefloor
for applause to fill the air
for uncertainty to turn assured


one step forward
leads one step back
bringing two, clustered
and us on the right track


we may stumble at times
not every step can be perfect
but knowing we’ll be fine
makes every step worth it


my world can be spun
out of complete control
but i know you’ll be the one
to catch me when it’s time to fall


i know we felt like one
in that very moment
and to that very song
the rest of the world was silenced


but when the music stopped
the feelings didn’t do the same
and how i’d hoped
we’d dance that dance again


but it’ll never happened
for reality has resumed
we have finally awakened
from that dream, that illusion

don't give up, just because of the downs.

Ah... nothing beats the emotions of the beginning of potential love... The excitement, the chase, the guessing, the nerves... the memories to-be. The chance and possibilities of a happily ever after. No matter how many times I fall or my heart gets shattered. I'd never want to give up on love for these reasons. And of course because right now, I feel very hopeful with this guy :)

In short... he makes me smile... :D

catching your gaze
from across the room
sending me into a daze
my heart starts to bloom

smiling and laughing
at your every move
singing and dancing
but always looking at you

a hug out of no where
sends my heart beating fast
i would've fainted, i swear
if i knew it'd forever last

words, that'd mean the world
to me, to my emotions
from your lips, they unfurled
just part of conversation


but no matter there
cuz i have no expectations
just living in the moment here
with you in this revelation


step by step is what we'll take
to get from here to there
and it will be what we make
that we'll keep, love and care


just smile with me now
and cheer the night away
don't think of the downs
cuz it'll always be okay

Manipulative, Selfish, Ass!

There are many ways to learn a life lesson. Regretfully, most people learn it the hard way, by direct experience. There are equal chances of meeting a good person and a bad one. But the bad ones always stun me with their lack of consideration for everyone else. 

I don't hate a lot of things in this world but those people must be in the top 2. The other would be the same people with additional traits such as: manipulative, scheming, conniving... etc. Those that calculate their every move in life to benefit themselves. Those that I wish to never come into contact with. Those that I wish nothing good for. Those like him.

manipulation is your game
to get whatever you want
you never lose, only gain
nothing you won't or can't

you had me in your grasp
you had complete control
but how long did it last?
before the end of the lull

did you think it was right?
to treat me as you did
did you think i wouldn't fight?
don't treat me like a kid

you are unbelievable
a dark, cold nightmare
treating me like a tool
didn't you even care?

i can't get my head
around who you really are
the lies you gracefully fed
you left me... scarred

i depise your ways
your lack in consideration
for you, it'll sure be okay
be what of me, from your actions?

i should've seen the signs
i should've seen it all
you really are one of that kind
who just wants me to fall

but you don't need to wait
before you're able to see
how i've changed my fate
to what i choose it to be

you're smiling now
you think i'm crushed
but you'll be wowed
by what you've lost!

you'd have nothing to gain
you would lose it all
that's when i'd call 'game'
when you'd finally fall

but i am not like you
i have a heart and conscience
i don't treat everyone like fools
that is why you'll see no vengeance

just 'live' your days out
the way you came in
confident and without
a care beneath your skin

you'll do just fine
or maybe you won't
either way i don't mind
what you do or don't

initiative. persistence. success.

A person can only be so patient. We can only wait for so long. It doesn't matter if you've set a date two weeks from now, if you plan to ignore them til the day, then that date may not even happen. A lot can happen in a short amount of time. If you become complacent... Then it's all over.

Don't waste time. Don't sit around waiting. Don't take what you get given. DO it all yourself! In the end it really only comes down to you, and you only. 

maybe it's better
to move away
from this weather
to a sunny day

rain may bring more fish
but shine bring more smiles
i just want to feel the bliss
of having something worthwhile

maybe i move too quickly
or maybe you're just too slow
but you must move swiftly
if you don't want me to go

a life is only blessed
with so much time
just stand up and confess
what's been on your mind

you may think i did wrong
but at least i'm not standing still
instead of being strung along
i stepped up and kept with my will

the song is telling us to dance
be a man, ask for the honour
if you don't cherish this obvious chance
we won't have a happily ever after

trust

There is a lot of people in the world that I could consider trusting. Yet there are only a few I actually trust. Some people might interpret this as having 'trust issues' but everyone is different. Different people require different levels of understanding, respect etc. 

I make many acquaintances but from those acquaintances, only a few will become my friends. That is because I want to give myself and everyone around me a chance... but in the end I want both parties to be happy. For some, if we are looking at relationships, I might not be an ideal girl for them because I think way too much about the long term, about the future. 


But I don't like change and because I know it is inevitable, I prepare myself, I make sure to not grow attached to things that aren't going to be around for very long.

And now that I have laid it all out... it all sounds like a defence mechanism... which only brings us back to the trust issues...

So there are two points to this story, one - I have trust issues and two - I have confrontation issues toward my issues...

every word i ever write
i think through clearly
to be sure they are always right
and come from the heart so dearly

in reverse, it is the same
i take every aspect to heart
i may sound like a pain
but this really isn't hard

you only need 
to speak what you mean
and then we will see
are you really what you seem

no one is perfect
and so we make mistakes
but when everything's taken affect
sometime's sorry is just too late

more thoughts...

"If a tree were to fall in the forest, and no one heard, does it make a sound?" - I say yes. Because if someone were to die in the middle of nowhere, reality is, they still died. If a heart 'breaks' and no one heard, it's still broken...


Leaving things until it's too late, is almost human nature. We hear the warnings, but we don't actually listen. One should know when to pay attention, when to take great care and when it is just simply too late. Should, but don't.

unknown ripples
in uncharted waters
not such an issue
until it gets closer

don't take for granted
anything while it's calm
just one little glance
and you'll be in alarm

changes can occur
within a few seconds
it becomes a blur
so pay some attention

don't abuse my kindness
while it's afloat on the surface
this can turn into quite a mess
if you don't take great grace



"No one wants to be alone..." most of the time. There are times where I just want to go somewhere no one can find me. A place where I can express all of the sorrow, I may have, without question. To just cry it all out... 

i want to seek
a patch of earth
where i could weep
away the pain at heart

if only these tears
can remain in the sea
i'll never have to hear
myself sorry and weak

but even if i bury it 
beneath six feet of soil
it will still exist
despite the toil

even if i wash it away
it'll come back again
just like the waves
a difference without change

defeat.

'Taking the road less travelled' is, of course, a risk. It's not the smoothest path, but there is a chance of a better end. In modern society, it is a norm that gender roles be played in reverse. Woman working equal with men, girls asking out guys, even proposing. A girl is still a girl though. 



Despite the changes of time, a girl still likes to be 'wined and dined'... They like to be treated well, special. I've taken a shot. I've tried something new. But I'm tired. I'm done.


we are so naive
to think we've a future
to actually believe
that life can be so sure

i hate myself for falling
i hate you for being here
i hate all this aching
i hate how nothing's clear

you cannot torture me more
yet you haven't a clue
what else can i do you for?
lower more of my value?

if you feel what you say
then act it out to me
be a man and convey
what you want us to be

i'm done with this chasing
i really, truely am
i don't see this continuing
we don't have a chance


we never think far ahead
until the water is at our feet
into our homes, schools, beds
all that's left to do is to accept defeat

good to know

What is it that scares the human race? What is it that is the most powerful tool and weapon of all? Knowledge. We are always frantic and scared when we lack knowledge and intelligence. Take the swine flu for example... it isn't as fatal as the normal flu, but because we knew so little about it, it scared us. 

Just like anyone's child, I have kept secrets from my mother. But that is one feeling I can live the rest of my life without. I need her to know everything that is going on in my life because she is seriously the best guidance counsellor in the world. She knows exactly what I should do and what I shouldn't. And it always turns out better for me when I do listen.

I've been telling her half the stories about a certain event. Because of that, I've been anxious and confused about what it is I am aiming for. Now that I've told her everything and heard the feedback, I feel much better and can kind of see the big picture.

Another scenario would be about taking a chance. I would take the chance if I could kind of see the other side. And when I find out the truth, ideal or not, it relieves me of the stress and frustration.


It's just simply good to know.


don't leave me in the dark
searching for a speck of light
not knowing how easy or hard
all the what if's, maybes and mights

searching with nothing
except my intuition
just give me something
to relieve the confusion

i'm scared more than ever now
i just simply don't know
where, what, when or how
what to do, where to go

air is failing to reach my lungs
my skin, drenched in liquid beads
 my head pounding like a drum
i can barely stand upon my feet

Back to Square One

Ever felt like you walked a long, long way just to end up at the beginning? Going round and round in circles and just getting nowhere? That's how I'm feeling. Life this year has opened my eyes so much. Just one blink and the world has changed again. But I'm still in the same place. I'm still here.

It takes a lot of courage to pursue something or someone. And I must say even with my confidence and humour with friends and family, I am not the same when I set my mind to a certain someone. 

But once I step up and see the entire view... I feel like backing down and attempt to look for a new path. As soon as I can see a glimpse of what the future might look like, I run... I never want to know. I want to live in the moment. But I can't help but think about things I shouldn't be thinking about...

My mind overflows with potential outcomes and processes and I just wipe it clean and then start all over again...

my mind is blank
i've got no aim
i don't understand
i don't have pain

i don't have directions
knowledge of where to go
no set destination
no path, no road

i'm a blank slate
i've no expectations
i've nothing to await
truly without motivation

all that i've known
are now cleared away
mind and body, all alone
'living' day by day

turning left and right
just to end up here
aiming for a light
that isn't even clear

what am i to do
what will be better
what am i to choose
what are my choices

unsure, uncertain
unlikely to pull through
a chance of a million
that i won't fail you

Best Long-Distant Relationship!

So, off the topic of guys for a while cuz my craziest, most beautiful girls are on their way HERE!! These two girls mean the world to me! They are truely family!

Danni && Dilek
2010

They were here around New Years and I can't believe it's been 7 months already... now they are back again :) I feel really, really happy but at the same time kinda annoyed at myself that I don't come and visit them like they visit me.

It's been 3 and a half years since I left Shepparton and parted from these girls... But our friendship hasn't faded a single day. Honestly, I think this is the best long-distant relationship in the history of the world!

Danni & Mong & Dilek
2007

We all only just started hanging out at the beginning of year 9 and I left at the end of that year but the friendship was is strong! I could honestly sit here all week and write about the good memories we've had (red bull and a webcam = crazy!), but I think I'm gonna go and prepare for the new ones we're about to have...

I love you girls!!
xoxox

heaven on earth

A dream can be endless, but it only takes a moment to wake up. Yeah I've snapped back into reality... And found that it isn't so bad after all. So, you win some, you lose some. Although, I'm thinking this loss might not be so great compared to what it is I am to gain... Sound like a fortune cookie? I can only hope!


smiles and laughs, are free
joy and bliss, are boundless
even in some cases of cruel reality
you can find this brightness

he's not the one but he is a start
my prince may take a few more miles
to get to this place, to get to my heart
but in the end i'll shine a great smile

you know it and i do too
nothing can stop what is to come
i'll wait for my turn, stand in the queue
and when i get there, there'll be the one

and one day, i will tell this in reverse
of how i met this perfect person
of the better and the worse
of how they made earth, heaven

playing it cool.. almost cold actually.. -.-

Soo... my bad-ass brick actually floats! Leading to me giving in on the repressing-those-feelings deal.. so what's a girl to do? Well, my emotions have betrayed me but I still got another plan. This is probably plan D now... 

My heart can beat as fast as it wants, legs can weaken BUT my facial expression ain't changing the slightest! Keeping the straight face, casual walk, smile, wave... "Wasssup?!" and that's a **NoooOOOoOoOooOOooOOoO!!!**

The possible thoughts going through his head:
a) *she's a little too happy... weirdo*
b) *oh so we're just friends... I get it*
c) *smile, wave... RUN!!*
d) all of the above.

OK so off to plan E because I've got no more confidence in plan D -.- ... And that is to stop planning! There's just too much in this world that cannot be anticipated... All I can do is bring my A game in any scenario, whether this be in friendship or relationship; I'll do my best!
my heart pounding
a million times more fast
when he's just standing
or just sitting there in class

i put on a confident smile
wave, and turn around
acting calm, all the while
hoping my secret hasn't been found

i can't act or illude
i can't hide or disguise
what i feel for you
how you look in my eyes

i love the chase
but i hate reality
what i've got to face
what's really meant to be

potential to fail


So, easier said than done. I'm not able to just forget something because its too hard and confusing to let it exist in my mind. Though there are a lot of things I don't want to think about, now and in the past, this has got to be one of the toughest cases.

I like to day-dream, dream in that little space of time between hopping into bed and falling asleep, and of course the usual sleep-dreams because they are unpredictably amazing. I think of all the 'what ifs'... What if I hadn't done this or what if that person had done that... What if my assumptions are true... What if the 'advice' I get to my liking are true? What if... this false hope, is more true than I thought...

I love getting advice that comes in my favour, but I try to avoid getting my hopes up. I hate being let down, especially by false hope that I feed myself. I've decided from the beginning, that despite all the frustration what exists now is too special for me to risk over a potential outcome... One that to me, that looks less and less likely as I think of it. 


I do believe, when two people are attracted to each other, there is a certain vibe between them. That is what makes it obvious between each other about their feelings... And when I can't sense it from the other person, I know they don't feel the same way. But through the encouragement of the lovely people around me and my own curiosity, I would bring it out in the open, and I tend to be unfortunately right.

This time however, it's not as clear. I think I do feel a vibe but because I don't want to get my hopes up and just frustration in general, I can't think or see straight. This time, it's just different...


whatever comes of this
i know was so from the start
that whatever that exists
was something from the heart

that look and vibe
from the first time we talked
those laughs and smiles
we shared as we walked

the short amount of time
that was able to build a friendship
one i'll always keep in mind
as so imperfectly perfect

if only i could genuinely feel
like the way you probably do
just forget the unreal
the way i feel towards you

the feelings i still hope
that you might reciprocate
that i'm not just a dope
denying the reality of fate

there's always room for you in my life
regardless what is to come
i trust in my heart and sight
you could very well be the one
