Goodnight daisy.

Dear daisy,

The life of the great Gatsby was actually not great at all, he was shot dead in the end, and never actually won the heart of Daisy Buchanan.  It was never an everlasting love.  And also not the kind of life that should be proud of.

I came across this quote from Benjamin Button 's note to his daughter this morning - i hope that you'll have a life that you are proud of, and if you are not, i hope that you have the courage to start all over again.

Unlike Gatsby, it was great to know that Benjamin had a good life with Daisy.

So good night Benjamin. Good night Daisy.

hello, summer!

songs: everything that played on nashville season 2.
coffee 

dear daisy,
rainy days are not suppose to be romantic. it's melancholic and depressing. unless you are with someone holding an umbrella. i love a nice blend of weather like spring, or autumn. welcome back to malaysia, yeay! where everyday is summer. 

inspired from watching 500 days of summer, i wrote a few stanza of things that taking back sunday would consider making into songs.

----------------------------------------------
roses are red
rainbows are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet

you made my heart bled
i'm gonna slice you into fillet
----------------------------------------------
twinkle twinkle little star,
you're the worst in my list so far

up, above the sky so high,
like a mammoth in the sky
----------------------------------------------
sweet like honeydew
bitter like you
---------------------------------------------
row, row row your boat,
gently down the stream,
marry, marry, marry...
marrying you is not my dream
--------------------------------------------
loving you is over,
you're so december,
------------------------------------------

the sublime and beautiful

song: talking to the moon, bruno mars.

dear daisy,
Camera cafe, in front of British Museum. 
the idea of sublime and beautiful is often greatly confounded, and discriminating each other. it sometimes can be confusing and repugnant, because the idea is very contradicting just like pain and pleasure, love and hate and joy and grief.

what makes a human is the ability to withstand troubles and to be able to smile at the same time.

something beautiful is the name i took from a song because sometimes it feels really great to walk out of the realm and experience the unknown. - there is beauty in everything.

camera cafe is a very nice place to visit, after a long day at british museum - was there for an extended visit from school of african and oriental studies on zoroastrian. (how i was stalled by the fact that mittal families originated from iran then to india and now became one of the richest in the UK).

i love the ambiance and the old school cameras that they put on display - i don't know if i remember how to pull a shot since leaving the scene in 2008.  well, i wrote a postcard to jieun and said this place reminded me of her ex-bf. she replied me with a curse. stupid!

strictly cash. and very jazzy atmosphere. instrumental songs. 


i'd love to write about cameras, but out of time at the moment due to class preparation. will do once i hv a time.

till then,
love, myr
