Late Night Pondering

Just came back from a Scottish pub crawl. Maximum alcohol, with minimum clubbing.

A little alcohol is fine, but I probably won't make it my choice highlight.

Dancing though.... That's a different story altogether :)

My white leather Polo shoes were totally destroyed, what with all the grime and sticky gooey liquid that happened to chance on it.

So I wiped it with kitchen towels and plain ol' tap water.

We can wipe things away. We can get rid of dirt, remove muck, scrub stains. We can use water, we can use soap. Or we can go hardcore and end up with bottles of hydrogen peroxide and bleach.

We can try to take away those that leave a mark on us.

But those marks eventually leave a scar.

No matter how much I tend to those shoes, one day the white won't be white anymore, the leather not-so supple, the soles slippery.

One day, the shoe will wear itself out from cleaning.

And so will we.

Truth

I don't want to start scheming within deep mires in which my foot may be entrapped in when I lose my direction later on.

Let's just be truthful.

We don't have to shout it from the rooftops, but we don't have to lie and connive around either.

Raise your head. Those that hang theirs are often weighed down by their own conscience.

So, enough.

What will be, will be.
It's time to live and just let live.

Chasing Pavements

I've made up my mind,
don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong I am right,
don't need to look no further
This ain't lust, I know
This is love

But if I tell the world,
I'll never say enough
'Cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do
If I'd end up with you

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

I build myself up
and fly around in circles
Wait then as my heart drops
and my back begins to tingle
Finally could this be it?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep on chasing pavements
Should I just keep on chasing pavements?

Just You Wait and See

I'm an emotional wreck.

But I have my goals.

I'll be different.

I promise.

Wait for me, Malaysia.

Just you wait and see.
