I dreamed of you last night.
I couldn’t see your face, and I never did.
But the feeling was breath taking, yet so surreal.
You didn’t care for the world, all for me.
We went places I never imagined.
Then it happened.
a surpise kiss.
so is this a sign or
just a side effect of desperation?
god? what is it?
Putting effort in the we of you and I,
All the feeling is you from I.
Apologies, Acceptance and Graces.
Do any count when it seems like me with I?
The past worked in the past.
But does it work in the present?
(My hands) don’t wanna start again
(My hands) no they don’t wanna understand
(My hands) they just shake it try to break
whatever piece i may find
My Hands – Leona Lewis.
…of the best letter for the week on 8DAYS issue #997!!
I’m so shocked that they made me the winner!
I’m so high now.
Here’s the letter I actually sent:
——————————————————————————————————————————————————————-
Confession of a Paparazzi Wannabe
I didn’t mean to but it just happened right in front of my eyes.
I saw a taxi hit into a white BMW Z4 from a bus-stop beside Liang Court.
-A flashback of a certain memory reading about this car in 8days-I know accidents do happen but it isn’t everyday that you get see a local celebrity’s car
get dented. The temptation of whipping out my camera phone and start snapping away is
like having a scoop cake from Tampopo Deli in front of you, which incidentally was what
I had before I waited at the bus-stop. The dent was nothing serious, a small one near the
left headlight.
The recently single lady stopped the car at the bus-stop, in which the taxi followed.
She jumped out and was obviously furious. I would be if it was MY BMW being hit.
Everyone nearby watched the drama unfold.
I couldn’t help but jump for joy being able to witness such moment.
I got to watch someone who hosts on a sports channel in action,
doing something way different. I don’t remember watching such a scene in ‘Growing Up’.
The funniest moment was when I realized that my shuffle playlist was playing that
Lady Gaga song during that moment.
This incident somehow inspired me to think, what if one of the future 8days issue was
somehow like a ‘Accident’ issue: full of bloopers, unglam results of the photoshoots,
accidents that actually happen during the process of making a issue?
Aren’t the paparazzi the ones that always come out with the worst photos by chance,
or should I say by accident?
I actually feel so bad for Jamie, with that stupid dent on such a beautiful car.
I felt so bad for her during that moment, I almost wanted to go forward to tell her and
scold that taxi uncle, but I figured that it might not be a good moment.
The next thing that could have came out her mouth was ‘Piss off!’ or should I say “Shingz Off!”
Could you help me tell her how bad I feel for her?
P.W.
—————————————————————————————————————————————————
8days edited heavily my letter to squeeze into the mail page with other letters:
The party is underway with almost of the details confirmed:
The deco is personalized by myself.
The cake is not chocolate, slightly personalized.
The food has been through my taste test by DON’T expect tastebud heaven.
The guest list is largely confirmed, with a few regrets.
The photography is covered by 2 close friends.
I’m only left with the activities part. I currently have only 2 ideas.
Any other suggestions?
I’m very excited yet there’s a part of me that the party will be a blah one.
But I have to say I have some surprises that’s going to be kinda fun!
WHEE~!
I want to declare Leona Lewis as an angel.
Her voice is so… given by god.
The ballads from her album are so heart-wrenching.
Angel on earth.
Meanwhile, the kelvintkc 21st Party is coming!
p/s: the wishlist is updated and check back for more ‘options’.
Here’s the video that every GAGA fan is talking about now!
It’s freakish. It’s weird. It’s so GENIUS! GAGA fashion.
I HEART gaga!
From the video, I think she’s giving a different message as well.
Do you see it?
Some of you guys have been asking me what do I want for my birthday,
because you don’t know what to get me. HAHA.
Here are some ideas you can pick up from:
1) Lady Gaga Super Deluxe ‘The Fame Monster’ Bundle
2) Sennheiser-MX-W1 Wireless Earphones
3) BEATS by DR. DRE: Solo with ControlTalk High Performance On-Ear Headphone
4) BEATS by DR. DRE: Tour High Resolution In-Ear Headphones
5) On Food & Cooking: The Science & Love of the Kitchen
6) The New Making of a Cook
7) Julia Child’s Mastering The Art of French Cooking
Topman LTD Clear Flat Top Sunglasses @ ION
9) ZARA Man Clear Thin Flat Top Sunglasses @ ION (someone has claimed this! omg.)
I’ve been looking around and I think ALDO is stepping up their game
on guys casual shoes, FOSSIL is rocking their new collection
of leather bags, especially the big chic reddish brown sling bag.
The movie Julie&Julia has inspired me to do french cooking.
I would love to learn from the best.
Don’t buy me a camera tripod stand. I have one.
However, I would appreciate DSLR help books for Beginners.
I’m a DSLR noob.
Personal Gym Training Lessons? An idea?
S-11. Simple enough.
Past experiences from clothing presents is either they don’t fit
or I don’t even wear them, although I want to.
You get the hint.
Will be updating this when I think more desires.
Kelvin,
I’m now left with 4 months plus to my ORD.
I wish I could start studying now. Lucky you.
I remember how I want to have a good stable job,
to make enough money for……
DAD and MUM:
to buy a house,
with a durian tree for dad,
a plot of land for mum to grow her plants and vegtables,
a pond for both of them to rear fishes,
a comfortable house for them to live till old,
to bring their friends for tea,
to have small gatherings…
SIS:
to share the living costs for mum and dad,
to help her if she needs,
to get her nice gifts for being there for me.
MYSELF:
to get a cat, a car, a home,
to start my own cafe/resturant,
to create my own male fashion line..
to live it on my own,
to fufill my dreams,
to the many things I will come up with…
Study hard and don’t give up.
Imagine if none of them don’t come true.
Work hard and I believe in you.
You believe in you.
May god look over you and give you
the intelligence, the logic, the strength,
to do what you need to do.
Always remember this.
The reality may not be the best,
but it can’t be any worse.
Perfection may be everything,
but what else is there to work on if it is?
I would die to have this…
