It's dark. My heart thudded wildly underneath my ribcage. I was so afraid that it would be loud enough to betray me- lead them to me. There was no sound but my ragged breathing. There was a sharp pain on my leg, but that was becoming insignificant next to the fear that ran through my blood veins. How long before they find me...

I am the queen. I am queen over all procrastination urges. For I, Joanna Liew, am a big, fat procrastinator (the irony- since I'm so skinny). What makes people procrastinate? I remember doing a research about this on my first semester in Psychology. I would have tried to revive this memory to put in nice information about procrastinators here, but unfortunately I am...
It's been ages since I touched this dusty old blog. Motivation is running low. To even place my fingers on the keyboard and type out thoughts on the blog. Sometimes the thoughts don't even matter by the time my CPU whirs to life. I tried making a new layout for the blog, but then it wasn't really impressive to me so I gave...

Edited July 3rd: Left out a few details...This is a little late. But gratitude to you guys are needed!Though I didn't get showered with presents, the wishes are astounding. I think part of my thanks goes to Facebook. Haha! Thanks to those whom had celebrated and wished me starting from the 27th of June! You know who you are ;). If I left...
It is weird how things work. Most of the time I sit and contemplate about myself and about other people. Sometimes I have this nagging thing in my gut telling me a person is not really "suitable" as a role model or a friend. Like not wanting to be friend a gangster because he/she will be a bad influence. I'd have this perception...
I feel so anti-social today. Don't really feel like talking to anyone, or going anywhere. Got mad about something and someone last night and stayed mad. Planned to study for my coming finals but ended up in front of the computer like a geek and sleeping like a pig the whole day. It's 10:44pm now and I haven't had my dinner. Feeling hungry...
First of all, I must warn readers, whoever is reading this post right now, that there is a long, corny post coming right up. If you are someone who can't stand mushy love pieces, you are very welcomed to skip this post. This post is entirely dedicated to one particular person (for a certain reason). And if you do decide to continue on...
You and me don't really communicate well. Let's face the truth. I speak feelings, you speak numbers. So I found this nifty song that talks in numbers and in feelings.There's only 1 thing 2 do 3 words 4 you...(I love you) I love youThere's only 1 way 2 say Those 3 wordsAnd that's what I'll do...(I love you) I love youHow cool and...
Someone complained I was being a sexist because I talked more about Shine than him. Well my friend, you've just earned yourself a smacking post on my blog. I know you'll looooooovvee this *insert big, wide smile here*.One day, there was a boy named Mohd Izzat, or Mohammad Izzat, or Izzy, or Izza (Man, why do you have so many names?). He went...
Hello!It's been so long since I actually wrote something, eh? It's the holidays now and I'm so super free! So what's been happening to me since? Nothing special. Started my degree course in Psychology and no, I can't read minds neither will I become psycho while studying the course... although I'll be a little bit more quirky. Which human isn't? Haha!Psycholgy is fun...

Silence
Sometimes silence is all you need.It's quiet, it's blank, there's nothing to distract you, nothing to disturb you. No pain, no tears, no drama... just a blank sheet of paper. And I want that blank sheet of paper to stay like that for a while.I'm so sick of having nice, blank papers splashed with ink. For now, I just want total and utter...
Do you have your own inspirations in life? Something or someone that teaches you how to live? If you don't, think of all the people in your life. Your enemies, your loved ones, your dog -anyone. Had they given you values or an idea in life? For me, currently at this moment, my inspirations come from God and three men.My first inspiration, comes...
In my possession I have with me a big bucket of valuables I hold dear. I stand at the edge of a cliff with the ocean is just right below it. As I stand here, thinking and reflecting upon myself, the winds keep changing from time to time. They sometimes brew a storm, whereby the umbrella I set to protect my valuables waver...
The human mind is a powerful thing. It has the capability to think, to imagine, to create and compose, to figure things out and have the control over one's whole body. The proof of greatness of the human mind is all around us; skyscrappers, gadgets, medicine, and institutions. The proof is all there, physical and concrete. But the most powerful state of the...
A nice song that suits a certain... situation. I find it quite meaningful. Give it a try :) Video song with lyrics (read the lyrics if you can't catch what they sing)! ...
Hah! I bet you didn't expect me doing this post, eh?I know I'm a banana, but I enjoy music in other languages too, you know? And this song is really sweet. Read the lyrics (there's English translation subtitle). The thing I don't like about this MV is that it has a depressing end. So don't suit the sweetness, don't you think? Enjoy... ...

You'll never guess who composed this.When sweet memories flood my mind,My heart begin to flow with the flooding river,At the thought of kissing you;When you are very close to me.When I'm comfortable with you now.When we are getting even closer,My heart continue run even faster,Reaching to be first in the race,But the race is like never ending;Never reaching the ending line.When I try...
I would like to settle down today to write (or type) out a thank you post to several people. Those people who actually put up with my emo-ness crap recently and took the time to listen. My sincere appreciations.1. Hui Lin -Thank you, baby ^^. I need to treat you one day.2. Joey -Thanks for the food and no thanks for the game,...

Emotionless
Love, why do you play these tricks on me? You gave me so much joy, yet you gave me equal pain. Love, do you enjoy torturing me and leaving me breathless? Always bringing me to the high cliff and leaving me there to decide what to do next? I can fall or I can just run away. If I fall, I might hurt...
Out of the silly quizzes I took, and results I get, I'd say a quiz about which superhero movie I am was one of the coolests. Why? Because she (yes, a SHE) sort of represents me. What's my result? Wonderwoman? Nope. She's a character from X-Men! Hahaha! Her name's Rogue!Even her name is cool! Now I'm not really an X-Men fan. When I...
I'm addicted to this song because it suits me mostly. Hmm.. link to the song and the not actual video (youtube is starting to be a pain in the ***) at my side bar =)How can I decide what's right?When you're clouding up my mindI can't win your losing fight all the timeNo care to ever own what's mineWhen you're always taking sidesBut...
