Je suis malade!

Hello night owls. The reason why I'm awake was due to being cold; cold to the bones. I'm feverish yet I'm cold. I cannot sleep when all I can feel is warmness enveloping me and occasionally I will shiver. Oh God, please cure me asap. Thank goodness I've no school tomorrow (or later). I actually have heaps to do pertaining to schoolwork.

Me being sick throughout the entire weekend made me nostalgic. Perhaps I should do a study on sick people and the kinds of things running through their minds. I thought about past happy events, particularly, I thought about Paris. Reminiscing the instrumental songs played along the streets, it calmed me down. And the coldness of the spring breeze, reminds me of how much I loved the weather (except the rainy days). And when you look up to the Eiffel, there she stood so elegantly filled with love. I remembered how my friends and I used to be at the Louvre 7-8 am in the morning to experience the morning breeze while absorbing the tranquility there. We fed ducks and I remembered feeling so light and happy. I cannot think of any other reasons why I wouldn't wanna go there again. I wish I was there now. Paris, Je T'aime.

And above all, falling sick functions as a pure reminder that we are human.
That we are flawed, and despite leading our own lives, God gives us lives, he has the right to take them away too.

Anything but ordinary

Sometimes I get so weird I even freak myself out I laugh myself to sleep it's my lullaby Sometimes I drive so fast Just to feel the danger I want to scream it makes me feel alive To walk within the lines Would make my life so boring I want to know that I have been to the extreme So knock me off my feet Come on now, give it to me Anything to make me feel alive Is it enough to love? Is it enough to breathe? Somebody rip my heart out And leave me here to bleed Is it enough to die? Somebody save my life I'd rather be anything but ordinary please I'd rather be anything but ordinary please Let down your defenses Use no common sense If you look, you will see That this world is a beautiful, accident Turbulent, succulent, opulent Permanent, no way I wanna taste it Don't wanna waste it away yeah, yeah Sometimes I get so weird I even freak myself out I laugh myself to sleep it's my lullaby I'd rather be anything but ordinary please

Encounters

Oh who am I kidding? I wrote a post previously on the importance of mobility. But going further than that, it is the social encounters that make up the foundation of human experience living under this same canopy we call earth and sharing this home alongside others. To the first moment babies acquaint themselves with the world, having the first touch, hearing the sounds of a laughter, whimper, sigh, silent smile, and modelling on the external world to distinguish safety from danger, right from wrong, norms from exceptions. It is the everyday social experiences of walking out on the streets and seeing people doing their own thing - the mother reprimanding the child, the young man awkwardly fishing his pockets at the entrance of the bus, a fragile old woman taking her time to walk up the stairs, the sound of aggressive haggling at the market. And then there are those two close friends insisting they each want to pay the bill for the other, a group of boisterous teenagers disrupting your ...
