After going through Arts Camp, Pre-camp, O-Week and Arts bashes I& II,

I guess i've had qte an eye feast..considering all the really beautiful and happening people

I see and meet during these FOPs.

Even among my OG and close friends...there are many cute girls and pretty ladies, so theres no escaping this daily drudgery of drugging my soul whenever i see them in sch.

Well, honest but narrow reflections aside, i guess what i want to sae is that im qte glad i made a realisation that i must look beyond superficial looks and feel-good stuff if im seriously looking for a soulmate.

To be brutally honest, yes i've succumbed just like any mortal to being attracted to people for their looks and stuff..but just glad that ikinda pulled myself back from the brink in time.

Guess im truly sober now and the drugging effects of superficiality have worn off on me.

What seems to attract me most about a lady now is her intellect,how we can connect at a deep level during conversations. we can talk bout anything under the sun, whether it be the current fashion trend for bags, local politics,macroeconomic policies, ethics or even Calvin and Hobbes my fav comic.

Such a lady is hard to come by i guess. Somehow, i've only been able to meet less than a handful ofladies like that in arts. Well some may argue that i've just been making the 'wrong' type of frenz..or that i havent been able to sieve through my prejudices to bring the friendship to a level where such intricacies are visible. Lets just say i've tried my best and i will treasure those few gems i've found in this vast ocean

betwixt Fate and haste
aboveth pain and vain
beneath'st name and gain
Life's most famous game

betwixt same and change
aboveth Chaste and chase
beneath'st sane and shame
Such ephemeral blame

amidst din and wind
aboveth dim and dream
beneath'st grin and gleam
Precious potter's kiln

Stairway To Heaven-Led Zeppelin

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
With a word she can get what she came for.
Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven.

There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
'Cause you know sometimes words have two meanings.
In a tree by the brook, there's a songbird who sings,
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it makes me wonder.

There's a feeling I get when I look to the west,
And my spirit is crying for leaving.
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees,
And the voices of those who stand looking.
Ooh, it makes me wonder,
Ooh, it really makes me wonder.

And it's whispered that soon if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason.
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter.

If there's a bustle in your hedgerow, don't be alarmed now,
It's just a spring clean for the May queen.
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on.
And it makes me wonder.

Your head is humming and it won't go, in case you don't know,
The piper's calling you to join him,
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow, and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.

And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.

And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
