Because you loved me
I've been playing a lot of Celine Dion and Whitney Houston for the past week. Sudden urge to rediscover their voice. I guess it's that stupid project of mine to take photos of things that remind fits the theme, "消失中的记忆". It took me back to when my dad would drive around the entire Singapore with my family in the car and we would play and replay this album called "The Power Of Love". It's just a mixtape and I remember it being pink in colour. I have no idea where it is now but it was my first ever memory of being in touch with western music. Now on a hindsight, I had a pretty classy childhood. I grew up listening to Celine Dion, how fancy is that? I went around take photos of my childhood, like the my old house that I have memory of living in. Nothing changed there. Not a single thing. And I am really grateful for that. I mean, not even the playground or the swimming complex opposite my estate. It was... humbling. I would want it to not change forever, but I still see it being in plans for either demolish or reconstruction in another 5 years. It's really old. My godmum told me it was like one of the first HDB to exist in Bukit Batok. Only fair for it to be demolish soon, considering it is Singapore. Okay, stop with the sappy, depressing things about my past. Now the rant. People should stop being obsessed with their weight. I don't get the point, so you do not have your desired weight printed in your mind but what matters is how you work your body. You can be 70kg but have curves that make people's eyes burn with envy. You can be 40kg and have legs longer than giraffes. What I'm saying is that the numbers doesn't defined who you are or what you look like. You decide that, and you should change that thinking if you want to be happy. Life is about being happy and comfortable. Nobody goes around saying, "Hi! I'm 55kg Alicia Chong!" Really man. Nobody cares. Only you who looks at the weighing scale every 5 minutes. Labels: childhood, i hate people, my past |
