To cut the long story short, I went to an event that I wasn't supposed to be in: Close Up Forever Summer. That's how I lost my iPhone to a trust funded kid. I wasn't supposed to be there for several reasons. Reason number one, it was pricey, and I'm broke. I mean, I would pay for a concert yeah, but a concert with a bunch of EDM dj's pushing buttons and shouting "MANILAAAAA!!!!" heck no. But I did still pay and went. Reason two, hours before the concert, I realized that I've already seen the main act- Alesso, "play" and push buttons, but shouting "SINGAPOREEEEE!!!!" and saw him absolutely free of charge. But I still went anyway. Reason three, upon arriving to the event, I saw that I was older than 90% of the concert attendees, it was like being in a high school fair, only there weren't any dress codes at all. Picture 17 year old girls in bikini tops and micro short shorts, and pre-mature teenage boys in tank tops ...
It's the most wonderful time of the year!! Says nobody ever. The only people who were dead serious and truthful about winter and/or the cold are the people of Game of Thrones. The days are short and the nights are friggin' long, it's cold and it hurts, it's no fun, and yes, did I mention that it's HELLA COLD? Now I get why they are so terrified with winter and get shivers down their spine whenever somebody says "Winter is coming" like it's a plague, because I actually believe that it is one. For somebody who lived her whole life below the equator, I thought having 4 seasons was magical, because having only 2 seasons- that being hot and hotter, was uber boring. When I hear winter I imagined, a white Christmas, nights by the fireplace with a hot cocoa on hand, in your sweaters, while Micheal Buble and Frank Sinatra plays in the background. I smelt pine cones, and chocolate, and freshly baked cookies. When I spring, that scene from Bambi, plays in m...
Rantings about this and that, becuase I can, and because the internet told me to do it. Mostly just word vomit. Read at your own risk! ∆∆∆ Quarter life- the part of adulthood we've been anxiously waiting since we 20 somethings left the teen world. It's not something that surprised us in the face, in fact, we were more than ready for it, putting "I'm-ready-for-you-quarter-life-I'm-gonna-own-this-year" captions in our photos whilst holding a cake with 2 and 5 candles on it. And admit it, we've all read tons of articles in thought catalog, buzzfeed, cosmo and all that jazz, hoping to prepare us for what's ahead. Turning 25 meant we no longer belong to the young 20's, it's also kind of saying goodbye to the young adult bracket. This is the first year we start getting our shit together, when the fact is most of us don't even have shit to "get together." But what is it with this thing called quarter life that gets us all uneasy...
