After all this time

Soak the sun
Cinnamon
What went wrong
Summer Song
Splinter snag
Windvein ragged
Faded trends
Summer ends

What's that I thought I heard you say?
Lunarscape and cold winds on their way
Whistling banshee through the screen
Salt air and isolation sting

Melon seed-spitting wars
Toys lost in the sand
Innocence is scorched
Summer leaves its brand

Bat away a hurricane's eyelash
Ushering by the season past
Hinting, dapples pinching through my sleeve
Intimating that I leave

Hurricane remember me
Hurricane watch over me
From this point we roll along
Without a trace of summer song

-Summer song, Carbon Leaf

Carbon Leaf really has the best lyrics man, so beautiful and so sad, often with some thought provoking message attached. The music's not bad too, great emphasis on rhythm made with a unique blend of instruments such as the double bass (instead of the usual bass guitar) in Life Less Ordinary and a nice violin riff in Let your Troubles Roll By. Check out their other songs if you have time. (Or you can just ask me to send you online.Heehee.)

Reality sank and collapsed with a clank.

Alright. So it's over, like a week ago. Everything feels so surreal now, all those sleep deprivation periods, desperate crammings, heart throbbing panic and exhaustion. It's like some kind of interrogation torture, when I think about it now. Some regrets still lingers on though, sigh. Should have listened to them and studied earlier.Now I know that people are not joking when they told me that it will be the hardest exam I'll ever take. Still, it's over, and I survived! Learnt quite a few things and information in the process too. I guess that's what matters the most at the end of the day. Knowledge seeking. That piece of paper can only determine my life so little when compared to the endless possiblities of life.

I will not give up. Even if it means taking the long way.

Another crossroad to choose my path from. Another barrier to break. The journey has been a fruitful one, with wonderful people and mind blowing experiences. Painful lessons learnt, bridges forged and burnt. Insights gained, reflections made. Definitely unforgettable and memorable.

Now we move on, loaded with fresh memories and experiences, ready for the next crossing.

Ready for anything.

BRING IT ON.
