'Foolish' by Sudar

2011-09-20T00:31:00.000+08:00

I was told to listen closely to the words of this song today... Sitting alone and thinking of youWhile you are sitting alone and thinking of meHow could I be so foolish to thinkThat you are sitting alone and thinking of meWhile I am sitting alone and thinking of youHow could I be so foolish to thinkThat you could be mine...Would you be mine?

I've always thought this is such a beautiful song. Now it's even more beautiful

An exit to an extended brief hiatus

2011-08-18T21:35:00.002+08:00

I'm reminded of how I heard a lone trumpet while I was sleeping in the forest in Yoyogi Park...

Along with it, I sang an almost silent murmur...

'Summertime, and the living is easy...'

I can't wait to have that again. Unfortunately, I will be surrounded by snow then.

A Brief Note On A Brief Hiatus (part 3 of many)

2011-08-13T22:28:00.002+08:00

The title above have inevitably transformed itself into a lie. My hiatus is no longer brief. It has been around for way too long.

Unfortunately I still have not gotten around to sorting out my shit yet. In fact, it has occurred to me that a brand new pile of shit have just been unloaded on my feet. Funnily (not in a hilarious manner, unless if you like sick humour), this pile of shit have been poured upon myself by myself. In my realizing of how I've been cradling this bag of excrement (and not to mention, progressively adding to it) for too long, I suddenly lost the strength in my upper torso. My fingers slipped and I let go.

I should stop now, lest I run the risk of the title being a complete lie. Lying always make me feel like crap.

It might appear to you that I have stopped caring. You might find yourself telling you that.
For now, you ought to suspend all belief in yourself in regards to that matter.

I just need to sort my shit out.

I'm thinking if I should do the same also.

I've posted this picture here many times already.

The next time I post this, it won't be here.
I wish you can see it then.

I am tired of 2 things

2011-05-10T02:01:00.002+08:00

1) not ever getting to live my life like a normal person

2) constantly having to make tough choices

I am tired

2011-05-09T20:47:00.001+08:00

this sentence is a mere one percent of a picture

2011-05-09T10:56:00.000+08:00

By that logic, a word is only a thousandth of a picture...

(I need to write more)

I have a pencil sharpener shaped like a shrimp. It is made in Shanghai, China. It's orange in colour and is bent in a crescent shape. I guess it is modeled after a cooked shrimp. A live one would have been straight, and perhaps white in colour. To use it I insert a pencil into its head and twist. The shavings would expel itself from the side of its head. With a pencil on it, it looks like a fancy hor d'oeuvre.

Every Now And Then I Feel The Need/Desire/Capacity To Engage In A Textual Discourse Of My Current State Of Affairs (part many of many)

2011-03-06T09:59:00.002+08:00

Today I feel that I possess the capacity to do so.

For the past week, I'm overwhelmed with a desire to sleep. To engage in a state of unconsciousness so furiously that it engulfs me entirely in my conscious state. I awake to find myself tired. I'm asleep to find myself riddled with dreams that are profound, and yet at the same time, makes no sense whatsoever.

I awake to senseless questions that catches me unaware. I find myself obsessed with answering these questions, but find my answers coming too late. Forever buried in irrelevance. Smothered by obsoleteness.

Having realize this makes me even more tired.

I have a film to shoot and edit, an art festival to organize, possibly an art show, a sculpture to build, an academic presentation, and a performance to execute.

I think I'll go to sleep now.

Alas...
I wish there was more green
And some blues and reds

But that would only result in whiteness

A whiteness that envelopes

An envelope containing a letter

A letter that I am about to send you

Which you may receive

Which you may reply

Which I will wait for

Which may never arrive

Which I may continue to wait for

Which I may read

Which may envelope me in a whiteness

A whiteness dotted with reds, greens, and blues

And the ever present greyness of our dreams.

Goodnight.
