However I don’t think you can fall in love the same way twice”

toast on my butter

“I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it’s over when I open them”
I’m standing here, unsure of this place. I’ve been here before, it feels familiar but it looks different. I see you standing across the room. Suddenly the room is filled with people and balloons. It keeps getting crowded every second. I lost you in the crowd. Panic sets in. I tried to move across the room, to find you. It’s hard with all these people and balloons. I’m praying you’re still standing at the same spot across the room.

“Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday”
I’m standing here, unsure of this place. I’ve been here before, it feels familiar but it looks different. The room has emptied. It’s nothing but a dark open space. You’re no longer across the room. I couldn’t get to you in time. You’re gone. I want to get out of the room. Maybe then everything will fall into place. Maybe then I’ll understand why they say the things they say.

“Promises mean everything when you’re little
And the world’s so big
I just don’t understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
Tell me everything is wonderful now”

I’m standing here at this place. I’ve been here before. I see you standing across the room. I make my way towards to you immediately. Afraid I will lose you in the crowd of people and balloons again. The more steps I take to move towards you, the farther you seem to appear. I grow frantic, running after you. You start to fade into the background.

“Love I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
”
I’m standing here. I’ve been here before, with you. Take my hand. Lead the way and I’ll follow. I get lost sometimes, I fall because I don’t see where I go…..

But always remember; whenever you’re walking down the street and you think of me, know that I’m walking in your footsteps….just half a step behind.

the mind of a colourfulshoe

Posted in Miscellaneous on May 8th, 2006

This is a story about a girl I work with, ColourfulShoes.She sits beside me with a grey partition separating us. She has six friends sitting on that partition. They are her friendly toys. She won’t allow me touch them or move them around. But sometimes I do…she just doesn’t know. I’ve secret names for each of her six toy friends.

Everybody thinks ColourfulShoes is a neat person. She has her work table in order. And she always makes fun of my messy table. But…alas, I have found out the truth. Remember that episode in Friends, the one with Monica’s secret messy cupboard that she hid away from the world? Well….ColourfulShoes has one too.. Her drawer: Please see Exhibit A below.

Sometimes she hides my m&ms from me, she even wears m&ms on her sweater pretending they are some sort of new design! Sometimes, when she has too much coffee, she likes to stand on her chair and swirl around. Then when she’s bored in the toilet, she does designing with toilet paper taking her time when she’s suppose to have lunch with me….Please see below Exhibit B.

Remember the sad little elephant bugger she tried to draw? If you’ve forgotten, no worries…I’ve put it up in Exhibit C.

But alas….you see, DesignerKim (her best friend) realized ColourfulShoes has no drawing talent…and drew this for her. So that ColourfulShoes can pretend that she drew it herself. I mean seriously…compare Exhibit C and Exhibit D (as shown below) carefully.

It’s even funnier when I put the two pictures side by side.
