en route; 
"But we are still being touched by that past, all over, constantly. We are taught that this is a bad thing, that the parts of our lives we no longer acknowledge can just be shed like a heavy winter coat and moved on from.
...
I don’t want to move on. I don’t want to leave my past in small increments behind me. I want to take something from every experience, good or bad, and find it useful in some tiny way. I don’t want the process of recovery from an ending to feel like a hill I have to climb, one that has a distinct beginning and end. I don’t need a thousand voices telling me to “get over it,” as though I could even if I wanted to. Most of all, I don’t want to fear every new love and every new adventure because I imagine that, if it doesn’t work out how I wanted it to, I will have to pretend it never happened at all."

colourful meringues, sausage &egg rosti, peach smoothies, churros, meiji yoghurt drink, one litre of asahi, chocolate cupcakes, coke &the company of amazing friends, aka ching, kai, alvin &kenchin (:
on a very spendthrift note, i've been on an online (and potentially offline, if i had the time to head to town &walk around) shopping spree, so i actually have two asos loots on the way in and at least one item the shopping carts of about four or five other shopping sites.
THIS. MUST. STOP.
this is most unhealthy for my bank account.
happy deepavali, everyone! <3
