Catch a falling star

Valentine's Day on monday. Quotes GP tutor Mr Larry Lee: "First love is always the sweetest." Amusing.GP lessons get so much more interesting when your tutor spends 1/3 of it talking about his loving relationship with his wife. And you wonder how you managed to digress to that when you began by discussing politics. Hmmm...
Been addicted to this song recently. Selina supposedly wrote the lyrics to depict her relationship with her boyfriend. It's quite sad, and I'm so glad that their love has been strengthened through all the trials and tribulations that they had to go through together. He is such an awesome guy haha. Hope Selina gets well soon! :)
沉默是我最后温柔,是因为我太爱你~
Yesterday was talking to yixin on the train...then was reminded of a certain phrase: 不在乎天长地久,只在乎曾经拥有。 I used to wear a Solvil Titus watch, and it had the phrase 天长地久 engraved on the back. Back then I found it such an intriguing concept. Just went to look up the 1992 advertisement featuring 周润发 and 吴倩莲, it's really heartbreaking sigh.
Someone said in response that 若不在乎天长地久,又何必曾经拥有。 I think that's a very valid argument too. I guess most of the time I tend to gravitate towards the second statement? But i guess love isn't all about being realistic. As with everything in life, sometimes things just don't work without a little passion. It's difficult though. To trust someone enough to love him/her, cos that means risking getting your emotions hurt in the process. 爱情是需要勇气的。
Hmm I have a feeling that I'm still suffering from CNY withrawal. Miss the days where you can sleep past noon and not care about homework. I need to hurry up and get myself in the "let's chiong for CTs" mood sigh. As of now I continue to be slack and incredibly not disciplined. Not feeling the urgency yet argh!
On another note, I am really grateful that I've been blessed in many ways. To have opportunities thrown on me, and to be lucky in instances where others more intelligent and accomplished and deserving were not. Although I believe that 机会只会降临在有准备的人身上, but sometimes I really feel that I've been very blessed to have been granted all these opportunities, which I did not put in a proportionate amount of effort for.
Got my new passport today. I look so screwed up in it sigh. If I had known that the photo I brought couldn't be used and I had to take on the spot, I would SO have slept more the night before, as well as brought a change of clothes. -_- As a result I have to tolerate a passport photo of me in my school uniform and a weird jacket for the next 4 years+. T_T
Haha and to end off, yixin and i were discussing over msn how it's been increasingly hard to be happy since starting jc. And although sometimes you look for company cos you're afraid of being alone, sometimes even when you're with a lot of people, you still feel lonely. It's tiring to pretend to be happy when you're not... Which is probably why sometimes I prefer to stick to small groups of ppl haha.
But I do think that nowadays I'm being more "myself". Which is a great feeling haha. :)
