"I believe in manicures. I believe in overdressing. I believe in primping at leisure and wearing lipstick. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing; kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day, and I believe in miracles."- Audrey Hepburn

[Opportunity to Cry]

[Week 6 - Opportunity to Cry]

      Things that make you feel good about life:
  1. Wake up early enough to see the sunrise and make yourself a cup of coffee
  2. Realize that the readings for your course is actually extremely interesting and entertaining
 3. A friend offers to take you out for dinner
  4. Knowing that you only have 2 finals and feel ready enough to not worry about them
  5. When the number on the countdown of the day to go home is single digit and mommy called and asked what you wanted to eat when you arrived home.

       I am feeling blissfully peaceful despite the fact that this is final week and that I should be studying my ass off for all the finals. However, it seems like I have no care in the world right now. You know that feeling when all the hardwork is over and you just want to not do anything already? That exactly what I feel right now. I have to try my best to resist the urge not to go out with friends, cook, bake, pack, clean the room, anything but studying.
       I was gonna choose "Good Morning" but somehow this song makes me feel even better than the other one. I like Prisciall Ahn's voice. She makes me feel like there's nothing to worry about in the world. Like this song, the title is depressing, the lyrics is sad but oddly enough, it gives me peace. It's life on an optimistic side...?

Opportunity to Cry
           Priscilla Ahn
just watch the sun rise
on the other side of town
once more i've waited
and once more you've let me down
this would be a perfect time for me to die
so i'd like to take this opportunity to cry
you gave your word
now i return it to you
with this suggestion
as to what you can do
just exchange my words "i love you" for "goodbye"
while i take this opportunity to cry
i'd like to see you fine i'm afraid
i don't know wrong from right
and if i saw you would i kiss you or want to kill you?
oh god
it's been a long night
so i think i'll go home
and feed my nightmares
they been waiting all night long
they'll be the last ones to tell me "goodbye"
and they'll give me many, many opportunities to cry


Here's a song for the radio
  Here's a line from the heart
