hello, old friend.
6:49 AM
summer secrets keep me breathing;
----
warning: long post ahead.
aaand major picture overload.
hurrah for day-overs!
hurrah, hurrah. we are the bomb diggity. :D
The attire today was pjs; so I walked out of the house in my universal studios sleepy tanktop and my pajama pants and my sister's pink Barbie duffel bag and the unicorn plushie that Maxy gave me back in primary school.
got a whole lotta stares. I was kinduv worried that going around Singapore in pjs might be some kinduv criminal offence. don't wanna spend my sixteenth behind bars!
Anywayyy.
At RJ's house! we kicked everything off by watching Sleepover. Qiu and I were squealing incessantly over the guy who acts as Alexa Vega's love interest. The look on his face whenever he catches sight of her is so sweettt. Just this look of complete, absolute mesmerization.
oh gosh. don't we all wish we had that.
Then we watched Sugar and Spice; and did our own impromptu cheerleading routine around RJ's living room. Go us! We'd make fantabulous cheerleaders, not.
I can't believe RJ thinks the guy in Sugar and Spice is cute. Somebody needs to buy him a razor.
then we went into RJ's room and fiddled around with her guitar, and vandalized each other with charcoal face masks.
... Wooga. We'd give Steven Strait a run for his money in 10 000 BC, oh yes.
... we did the Soundtrack Of Your Life quiz! which was awesome. Omigosh. I shall post my results here.
***
(instructions: put your ipod on shuffle.)
Opening Credits: Let Love In (Goo Goo Dolls)
"you're the only one I ever believed in
the answer that could never be found
The moment you decided to let love in;
Now I'm banging on the door of an angel,
the end of fear is where we begin,
the moment you decided to let love in."
Waking Up: You Are The Music In Me (HSM)
First Day Of School: Crazy Frog
I was immensely unhappy with this result. ...I mean, honestly. The one song I canNOT stand?! yeah, thanks.
Falling In Love: Innocent (Our Lady Peace)
"we are, we are all innocent,
we are all innocent,
we are, we are..."
Fight Song: Because You Live
... Guess that means I'm gonna be fighting for someone. Whoa-uh.
Breaking Up: When I'm With You (Faber Drive)
... We all came close to crying when we saw this result. Love this song.
"when I'm with you, I'll make every second count
Cause I miss you whenever you're not around
When I kiss you; I still get butterflies years from now,
I'll make every second count when I'm with you."
Prom: I Must Not Chase The Boys (Play)
... The shuffle was screwed. I swear.
Qiu got something almost as bad-- "She Blocked Me". And RJ got "Wasting My Time".
... gee whillikers. We three didn't have much of a time at prom, did we.
Mental Breakdown: Chasing Cars (Snow Patrol)
... Running around in traffic? Yeah, Cara, you're headed for the looney house fo' sho.
Driving: Think Twice (Eve 6)
"when all is said, and done, and dead
does he love you the way I do
breathing in lightning, tonight's for fighting
I feel the hurt, so physical
think twice 'fore you touch my girl
come around I'll let you feel the burn
think twice 'fore you touch my girl
come around, come around; no more."
Flashback: Face Down (Red Jumpsuit Apparatus)
"cover up with makeup in the mirror
tell yourself it's never gonna happen again
you cry alone and then he swears he loves you."
Wedding: We're All In This Together (HSM)
... Wth? Uh, no. Nobody is gonna make me walk down the aisle to that one.
Birth of Child: Do You Want To (Franz Ferdinand)
... Hell yeah.
Final Battle: From The Inside (Linkin Park)
"I won't trust myself with you,
I won't waste my time on you,
Won't waste my time on you."
Death Scene: The Kill (30 Seconds To Mars)
... Whoa. Appropriate, much.
Funeral: Over (Lindsay Lohan)
... Sure is.
End credits: First Day Of The Rest Of Our Lives (MxPx)
"I’m gonna chase my dreams and catch up to them
I’m gonna find you some how, some way, somewhere, some day
First day of the rest of our lives, and I miss you already
Last time I saw that look in your eyes, and I miss you already. "
****
so later we moseyed down to Holland V, in our pajamas and our Tinkerball fluffy cap and Minnie and Mickey ears.
we got lots of curious glances and smiles along the way.
one time, when we were at the busstop, some bus drove by and all the heads in the bus turned simultaneously to look at us. Every single head.
It was a riot.
We wanted our ritual Frolick with Ben.
... but Ben wasn't available. ):
So we went for our Frolick instead.
"mmm omigosh this is yogasmic!"
we all have a weakness; and some of ours are easier to identify.
yeah look down. no prizes for guessing.
...aaaand us being totem poles. Probably the cutest ones you'll ever see.
Duh.
I love you two-- we'd trump the Sleepover Club anyday.
"let's run away to a place where the air tastes like rain and the sun shines like Sunday morning.
You bring your laugh and I'll bring my sense of humor,
and we can taste the days, one week after another."
fluffy bedroom slippers and teddy bears and unicorns;
pink flannel nightgowns and crumpled boyfriend shirts,
four o'clock in the afternoon sees us rolling on the floor laughing
and hurling feather pillows like only sixteen year olds can
strumming guitars to twentieth century love songs, we
don't need happily ever after, we've got each other, and
the way your eyes sparkle in the sunlit polaroid is music to me
this town is too small for us; we'll take it by storm,
we've got faith and trust and pixie dust
and our laughter to keep us warm,
we've got a big old plan to change this big old world
and these people are none the wiser,
and these people are none the wiser,
yeah, these people won't know what hit them.
