douce-amere,
\on facebook note\
survey question: If your house were on fire, what would be the first thing you grab?
my answer: my violin.
Dona Nguyen: WHY WOULD YOU GRAB YOUR VIOLIN?! I’M UNDER YOUR FREAKING BED, WOMAN.

1) she texted me earlier, “I’M GOING TO LIVE UNDER YOUR BED FROM NOW ON, HMPH” without knowing the fact that I share a huge bed with my mom.
2) she also...
Breakin’ down and comin’ undone, It’s a roller-coaster kinda rush; And I never knew I could feel that much… And that’s the way I loved you.

#55: bubble gum memories.
I finally know the reason why I still spend every minute reminiscing the moments I shared with you. When we were together, you loved me; I on the other hand, was different. I was in love with you, but at the same time, I was in love with the idea of love, with the fact that I was in love.
And perhaps that is why I took such a long time to let you - and even the thought itself - go.

fact #35
I absolutely adore going through old yearbooks, papers that are scribbled all over, books with too many sticky notes and I-love-you notes that I can never write again.
hathi-aures asked: I have a crazayyyy idea ;D
How about you and I both make goals of playing our musical instrument and practicing again? I haven't played my clarinet in YEARS, I was one of the best players in class and I used to be proud of it, but I wouldn't say that about myself now ;/ I mean that was literally 4 years back.

#54: I wish I were..
I wish I were a great many things. A good violinist. A good singer. A good athlete. A good dancer. A good writer. A smart student. A beautiful girl with elegance. An insightful thinker. A person with sense of humor. A person with sense of fashion. A dreamer. A compassionate, warm-hearted philanthropist. Someone everyone loves, someone who loves everyone.
What hurts me the most is that I have so...

#53: Why am I so afraid of touching my violin?
My mom just asked why I barely ever practice. I wanted to scream. I don’t know, I don’t know why, but I’m so scared of playing it, listening to myself, and spending hours practicing. Others have such high expectations on me, myself included, and I feel terrible for not being able to reach them; no, I feel miserable for not having enough courage to even try to reach them.

#52: here, 39 drafts and counting.
There are so many things I want to say, yet I seem to be incapable of putting my thoughts into right words. Heck, I feel as if most of my writings don’t even make sense to anyone else other than me.
That’s why every time someone formsprings me, telling me how much my writings speak for their thoughts and how much they love reading them, I can’t help but wonder if I am the only...

“I find it poor logic to say that because women are good, women should vote. Men do not vote because they’re good, but because they’re male. And women should vote not because they’re angels and men are animals, but because we’re human beings.”

oh, second semester.
Please be good to me. I’ll be good to you as well.
I am so afraid.
Where did my copy of The Great Gatsby go?!?!
Frustrated beyond you could possibly imagine.

#51: Be the change you wish to see in the world.
A quote from Ghandi, written on the wall by stairways in my school. Every time I pass here by, I pause for a second and take few seconds to read it aloud to myself.
Be the change I wish to see in the world. Be the change I wish to see in the world. Not any change, but the change I really wish to see in the world.
And I secretly make my promise with Ghandi all over again, promising him that I...

Tom: She likes Magritte and Hopper. And we talked about Bananafish for like 20 minutes. We’re so compatible, it’s insane. She’s not like I thought at all…she’s amazing!

My favorite quote of the entire movie:
Tom: You know what sucks? Realising that everything you believe in is complete and utter bullshit. Summer: What do you mean? Tom: You know destiny and soul mates, true love and all that childhood fairytale nonsense. You were right, I should have listened to you. Summer: No, Tom. I was sitting in a deli and reading Dorian Gray and a guy comes up to me and asks me about it. And now he’s my Husband....

#49: while watching Little Women.
I’ve read the book since I was very young, yet I still don’t know who my favorite character is - I’m trying to choose between Joe and Beth. I realized all in sudden today though, that the reason why I may be having such a hard time choosing between the two is because Joe is who I am right now, a loud tomboy who never hesitates to fight for what she wants, and Beth is who I...

favorite season: fall slowly turning into winter.
We used playdoh in Calculus today.
The moist yet firm texture, the friendly smell of clay made me smile for the longest time this afternoon.
God, I haven’t played with playdoh for ages.

Confession #48: All you need is love,
and I promise you, I’m not lying here. And during the few minutes I spend thinking before falling asleep every night, I feel ashamed of how I didn’t get to love enough - to throw one more friendly ‘hi’ to strangers, to embrace a classmate I do not like, to tell a friend how beautiful his or her smile is.
All you need is love, yet I’m too selfish to realize it fully.
itscatdo asked: dear sungmin,
i actually don't have one.

Confession #47: I wish I were brave enough to say,...
“I’m not going to say goodbye because it’s too sad.”
I wish I could enjoy saying that cliche line every time I farewell. But I can’t. I could never let anyone slip away without saying goodbye, because I know that I would regret it for years, no, for decades.
Because ending without a proper goodbye would mean there was never a proper beginning.
J. D. Salinger, author of "The Catcher in the...

There's never a right time to say goodbye.

Fight aids with LOVE, it’s all we need right?
I knew that.
me: this soup is pretty good.
me: it’s just a bit too creamy.
jamie: it’s called ‘cream of potato’ soup.
there’s a reason why I look forward to rehearsals at the Kennedy Center.

oh hello.
You put a smile on my face even though I don’t show my appreciation for you! I love your posts and it’s as if you read my mind before submitting each entry. I had a question for you earlier this week but I forgot it. Maybe it wasn’t a question, I think it was just a comment, aha! Nevertheless, I admire you and I adore you for so many reasons but the reason that matters most -...

Do me a favor, make my night.
formspring or message.
I LOVE answering the oddest questions or reading sincere comments. Tell me about something, or ask me some questions about me that I can think about. Physics midterm and tons of other things tonight - you can surely help me feel better tonight :]
I don't need the reality.
me: junior year is almost over!
james: not really.

Mom: no, you can't donate your blood. You're going...
oh my god.
Please don't be so hard on me.
For my greatest fear is to let you down.
the hardest goodbyes are the ones left unsaid
