More den a year ago, my American lecturer spoke bout a presidential candidate who had all odds against him startin from his name. His first name rhymes wid Iraq, his surname wid Osama & his middle name is shared wid a certain slained mister Saddam. Oh of course, dere's dat tiny issue of his skin colour & throw in e world's greatest recession since e Depression into e mix. Could it b possible dat America would ever vote an African-American to hold e highest office in state? I tink e answer is unanimous. Barack Hussein Obama isnt only USA's choice, he is e world's choice as well. Never has an election garnered so much attention from all sides of e globe & cut through all demographics. His msg of hope inspired change & neva hav we been in more desperate need of change den now.
Remember remember e fifth of November,
It was a memorable day in more ways den one. I got a bright red stress ball & a chunky cigar to welcome me to my new space. I dunno how I got dere but e opportunity dropped rite on my lap & things fell into place. Im still settlin down but all's good so far. Lookin back on my tumultous 2008, I could probly write a thrillin story of it all. I had e craziest year ever & it took me awhile to wind down from it. Initially I had my reservations in lettin go of e wild side, dat I would wither into oblivion & sheer boredom widout it.
But Im havin a strange sense of purpose rite now, sumthin completely foreign to me. Dat perhaps Im ready to welcome another phase in my life. I was so afraid dat life would b dull widout all e madness but I learnt things need not b so extreme. Sumwhere along e way, I stumbled onto normality. Dere's a time to slow down & embrace new challenges, new responsibilities, new goals. Coz dere's always time to let loose, unwind & play.
Its a reality check to realize I turn a quarter of a century old next year. And as my youth slowly slips thru my fingers, I knew I lived it to e fullest & wouldnt hav done anythin differently. I was constantly pushin my limits & it wasnt easy fer my family. But strangely I wonder if it had been any less chaotic, would I hav been able to see things now in clarity? Obama abused alcohol, marijuana, cocaine in e folly of youth & now he's beaten near impossible odds to b e world's most powerful man. Im not toleratin vices but mayb sum ppl need to experience things on all sides of e spectrum before evolvin to a greater good. Evrybody loves a comeback kid, juz ask Britney Spears. Hee.
Speakin of which, Cosmic Gate provided me a great release in many many ways.
can you open ur eyes BIG-BIG or not?!
rowdy crazy ppl tinkin dey're goin up Genting
She's years younger den me but she takes good care of me wen it matters. Mayb she grew up faster den I ever did, did things at a far younger age dat we are able to b on e same wavelength. Our paths crossed thru e weirdest of connections but its here to stay! I love how diversed all my party frens are. Dere are girly ones, loud ones, carefree ones & den, dere are those who are one wid e music. Hee.
