hello!
whoa, haven't blogged in what seems like ages. anyway! changes, changes, and i'm moving over to lj. i prefer the privacy there, so i don't have to think about what i want to say and who could potentially be reading.
this year's been going rather good. think i've matured quite a bit. things get complicated, but overall, everything's awesome. love my family, love my friends, enjoying my job (intern at law firm ftw! white shirts&pencil skirts&"Your Honour, may I request the permission for a student attachee, Rachel De Silva?"). basically, my life's going great, the people in my life are keepers fosho, so what else can i really ask for?
so yes, jumping jumping. i'd tell you where, but my entries are locked to varying degrees anyway.
love&peace y'all! hope your life's awesome too (:
LOVE,

Went to the plant nursery with my parents this morning after church. The place was mostly hot&boring, except for when we went into the Cold Room- they keep all my favorite flowers in there!
Gerberas in bright yellow, red&orange;
deep-purple Pom Poms with white tips&green cores;
Tulips that were mostly yellow, but with a tinge of red at the base;
soft-petal, soft-pink Freesias;
clusters of sky-blue Periwinkles;
Sunflowers that were daintier, but equally sunshine-yellow, than the usual huge ones.
Dad offered to buy some for me, but my room still looks like a tornado hit it, so I didn't get any yet. I have to clear my room before I start work, so I can get my fish in a wide-mouthed, blue-pebble-bottomed vase to put on my table.
As we were walking about the Cold Room, I was busily telling my dad about how I want to get married under a timber trellis, with twine&vines&dotted with sunflowers. The only roses there would be at the wedding will be in petal-form- some for the flower girls, some for the centre pieces- but other than that, they are quite overrated. Instead, there would be all the other flowers as mentioned above, especially the ones that are bright! There would be lots of bright colours- yellows, oranges, reds- cos weddings are supposed to be happy ocassions! &the dinner would be under a large, white marquee(:
After I was done narrating everything in detail, Dad looked at me with a smile that plainly said- who do you think will foot the bill?
Money, money, money,
Must be funny,
In a rich man's world.
(I want to be in on the joke.)

so bored that I've resorted to tagging people in my older albums who've just recently joined fb. but it's starting to bring back memories (:

Looking through the photo albums filled with pictures from when we were younger- when we were more carefree&things were simple, so we could take each day as it came&embracing it whole-hearted as it did- sometimes makes me wish we never grew up, so time couldn't push us onto different paths&we could live that way forever.
But I suppose the fact that it lasted only four short years makes me treasure those times even more, &work to keep that spirit alive in some part of all of us.

HELLO ALL :D
It's 2009, wow.
2008 was filled with a wider range of more intense emotions than I've ever experienced in such a span of time. But for every low came a high, &I learned just how lucky I am to have family&friends who care so much for me, &whom I can love intensely even though their eccentricities may drive me a bit mad sometimes. I've learned to see things for what they are, not for what I want them to be- which was a tough lesson to learn, at a tough time to learn hard lessons, too. But lessons need to be learnt, the more difficult circumstances will just etch it more strongly in my mind.
But let's not dwell too much on what's already happened when there's a new year to look forward to! A fresh, clean start- carrying forward all the love&goodness to begin this year right, leaving the bitter/sad stuff behind in the previous year as reminders.
&the way 2009 was ushered in? (:
