Like we dream impossible dreams

Life is daydreaming when you have more important things to do,
Getting upset over things that don't matter,
and laughing at things that don't make sense

Life is having a crush on strangers,
and falling for the wrong people,
Getting to know people you thought were your friends,
and getting closer to those you never thought you would

Life is falling asleep in class,
and going crazy in the school library
Dying to go home on a busy day
And dying to go back to school when you're lonely
It is trying to make sense of sarcastic remarks in PA,
barely staying awake while teacher is doing sums,
doing chemistry experiments without any results,
and singing your heart out in Bio.

Life is getting your jobs done at the last minute,
and freaking out together after a very hard test,
getting broke on birthdays,
and starting the surprises all over again
planning crazy things for the holidays,
and talking every moment like we are never meeting again.

Life is knowing that some things are wrong, but feeling that everything is right.

Right now, everything is right.

Look at you worrying so much about things you can't change
You'll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way

Don't you see the starlight, starlight

don't you dream impossible things

New Beginnings

 So, after a lot of  'peer pressure', I am finally here, writing in my blog. I don't know why it has taken such a long time for me to start this even though I have promised a few people I would some time ago. Maybe because I am more of a 'write in private' kind of person. But, I see the fun in writing blogs, I really do.

Maybe I should start with the basics. I'm turning 19 this year, and man, that does feel old. People might say '19, pssh...still a child...' and yes, I do agree. But this is the period of time when you feel like you should start acting like an adult, and yet you still feel like a teenager (or a kid even). And sometimes that brings some complications. But I'm sure things will start smoothing out and turn out right. :)

I have a lot of hobbies. Listening to music and singing are definitely at the top. God forbid there comes a day when I don't sing at the top of my voice at home. I wonder if my parents get annoyed by that xp. Somehow I quite like dancing too, even though that isn't quite apparent. I like reading, though I used to like it a lot more when I was younger, but I am getting back on it. I like writing, because it is the only way I can smooth out my thoughts and probably understand myself a bit more. It is always hard isn't it, trying to understand yourself.    

As for my blog name, I thought about it long and hard, and I decided to go with 'Written in Pen'. Well, you know the phrase 'my life is a story, but it is written in pen so I can't erase any mistakes' ? Well, I quite liked it when I first saw it, so I guess it kind of got stuck in my head. 

 I guess this is it for now, for there are a lot of studying I should be doing (but I am obviously failing at doing that). Just a quick hello to my friends who asked me to do this ;)
