Imaginings
ABOUT the girl

My imaginings - stripped down bare and back to the basics.
Because life really doesn't need to be that complicated.

    I wrote a series of Penny Loo jambo, but it got thrown away accidentally. Heh.
    So anywayyyy...
    Introducing Penny Loo, my pen-friend-and-form-of-self-entertainment from HR2002 class.

    Penny Loo, Penny Loo
    Where are you?
    I told you alr..
    I can't help it that the sky is blue!

    OKAY. Back to notes.

    It's hard not to feel as if I've got a "FAILURE" sign hanging from my neck.

    It is demoralising.


    Matthew 6:26

    Your grace is all I rely on

    You wait, wanting this world
    To let you in
    And you stand there
    A frozen light
    In dark and empty streets
    You smile hiding behind
    A God-given face
    But I know you're so much more
    Everything they ignore
    Is all that I need to see

    There's nothing we can do about
    The things we have to do without
    The only way to feel again
    Is let love in

    let love in - goo goo dolls

    Spare a little candle
    Save some light for me
    Figures up ahead
    Moving in the trees
    White skin in linen
    Perfume on my wrist
    And the full moon that hangs over
    These dreams in the mist

    Darkness on the edge
    Shadows where I stand
    I search for the time
    On a watch with no hands
    I want to see you clearly
    Come closer than this
    But all I remember
    Are the dreams in the mist

    These dreams go on when I close my eyes
    Every second of the night I live another life
    These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
    Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

    Is it cloak and dagger
    Could it be spring or fall?
    I walk without a cut
    Through a stained glass wall
    Weaker in my eyesight
    The candle in my grip
    And words that have no form
    Are falling from my lips

    These dreams go on when I close my eyes
    Every second of the night I live another life
    These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
    Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

    There's something out there
    I can't resist
    I need to hide away from the pain
    There's something out there
    I can't resist

    The sweetest song is silence
    That I've ever heard
    Funny how your feet
    In dreams never touch the earth
    In a wood full of princes
    Freedom is a kiss
    But the prince hides his face
    From dreams in the mist

    These dreams go on when I close my eyes
    Every second of the night I live another life
    These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
    Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

    These dreams go on when I close my eyes
    Every second of the night I live another life
    These dreams that sleep when it's cold outside
    Every moment I'm awake the further I'm away

    these dreams - heart

    If you enjoyed Stardust the movie, GO GET THE BOOK! It's wayyyyy better than the movie. Cos the movie is only "based on" the actual story.
    psst. thanks to Jason for mailing me Stardust all the way from NY a few years back!

    And if like me, you totally fell in love with the book (it's my fave fairy-tale!), and you're game for something A LOT darker, go pick up Neverwhere (also by Neil Gaiman). Haha, take that as a dare. One of Gaiman's best works in my opinion.

    Here's the "prelude" to Stardust.. Well, sort of..

    Song

    Go and catch a falling star,
    Get with child a mandrake root,
    Tell me where all past years are,
    Or who cleft the Devil's foot;
    Teach me to hear mermaids singing,
    Or to keep off envy's stinging,
    And find
    What wind
    Serves to advance an honest mind.

    If thou be'st born to strange sights,
    Things invisible to see,
    Ride ten thousand days and nights
    Till Age snow white hairs on thee;
    Thou, when thou return'st, wilt tell me
    All strange wonders that befell thee,
    And swear
    No where
    Lives a woman true and fair.

    If thou find'st one, let me know;
    Such a pilgrimage were sweet.
    Yet do not; I would not go,
    Though at next door we might meet.
    Though she were true when you met her,
    And last till you write your letter,
    Yet she
    Will be
    False, ere I come, to two or three.


    -John Donne. 1573–1631

    Got this link for the personality test from lk's blog.

    --

    The Ultra Ultimate Personality Test
    Your Score: The Idealist
    You scored 47 Extroversion, 69 Intuition, 72 Emotional, and 55 Spontaneity!
    INFP

    INFPs are quiet, creative, sensitive and perceptive souls who often strike others as shy, reserved and cool. These folks have a rare capacity for deep caring and commitment--both to the people and causes they idealize. INFPs guide their behavior by a strong inner sense of values, rather than by conventional logic and reason. Forced to cope with this facts-and-figures "real" world we inhabit, INFPs may appear to have been imported from another galaxy! They gravitate toward creative or human service careers which allow them to use their instinctive sense of empathy and remarkable communication skills. Strongly religious, spiritual or philosophical people, INFPs may see the purpose of their lives as an inner journey, quest or personal unfolding. More practical or rational types may tend to discredit the INFP's sources of understanding as mystical. The search for a soulmate is a preoccupation for many INFPs, who must balance their need for privacy and peace with their yearning for human connection. If there seems to be an air of sadness in the INFP's spirit, blame it on this type's longing for the perfect in all things.

    Relationships
    INFPs present a calm, pleasant face to the world. They appear to be tranquil and peaceful to others, with simple desires. In fact, the INFP internally feels his or her life intensely. In the relationship arena, this causes them to have a very deep capacity for love and caring which is not frequently found with such intensity in the other types. The INFP does not devote their intense feelings towards just anyone, and are relatively reserved about expressing their inner-most feelings. They reserve their deepest love and caring for a select few who are closest to them. INFPs are generally laid-back, supportive and nurturing in their close relationships. With Introverted Feeling dominating their personality, they're very sensitive and in-tune with people's feelings, and feel genuine concern and caring for others. Slow to trust others and cautious in the beginning of a relationship, an INFP will be fiercely loyal once they are committed. With their strong inner core of values, they are intense individuals who value depth and authenticity in their relationships, and hold those who understand and accept the INFP's perspectives in especially high regard. INFPs are usually adaptable and congenial, unless one of their ruling principles has been violated, in which case they stop adapting and become staunch defenders of their values. They will be uncharacteristically harsh and rigid in such a situation.

    Strengths
    Warmly concerned and caring towards others
    Sensitive and perceptive about what others are feeling
    Loyal and committed - they want lifelong relationships
    Deep capacity for love and caring
    Driven to meet other's needs
    Strive for "win-win" situations
    Nurturing, supportive and encouraging
    Likely to recognize and appreciate other's need for space
    Able to express themselves well
    Flexible and diverse

    --

    You can be the judge of that.
    Alright... Back to work!

    (Anw, I don't believe in the whole idea of soulmates. No such thing in my world.)
