and try not to press the tip of the pen too hard—the nib wears off pretty quickly.

via my obsession with blogskins when i was 13

and honestly, i haven't done anything impressive like /actually/ coding a website from scratch. i learn a lot from tweaking things and moving them around, trial and error and googling. i'm sure you'll be able to do it too

unsure of whether i have matured, but i guess i've changed...?

i no longer think love is [the] solution to my emotional problems
don't really care about what other people think of me
feel more independent now—i enjoy walking around singapore alone/readily do things by myself. this used to be a problem of mine.
i wear a lot more lipstick now

i use my tablet on photoshop, not illustrator

mine's a wacom bamboo pen and touch tablet

nope

awkward is my middle name

adobe photoshop cs5!

i'm neurotic

that sums me up as a person

hi

i don't think best friends need to have a lot in common.

i talked to charmaine about this a while back. about ways to make friends/sustain friendships and i agree with what she said—that it is somewhat important that two people have the same interests/common ground/ability to bond over the same topics so that the both of you can grow closer. that's the key factor in basic 'friend-making'.

(although joseph and i hardly have anything in common and we still managed to accept each other. we are now good friends)

a best friend relationship is quite different. to me the things that glue my best friends and i together are the fact that we are both willing to sacrifice time to pay a little more attention to each other, give love to each other almost unconditionally and be able to look past everything else and connect with each other regardless of what interests we have. a best friend relationship is essentially a connection that resonates deeper than common interests because it means we will be able to be ourselves around the other person.

charmaine and i are almost alike but not completely.
angie is nothing like me but she makes me happy.

i assume you are referring to platonic relationships with the opposite sex

to answer your question: yes.

although for me, there *may* be a time where i would think to myself: hmm he seems like a person i can like. i try not to entertain that thought for too long though and push that to the back of my mind for the sake of the friendship/the reality of the situation (for example: we won't be able to connect on a romantic level. because i guess stepping into a relationship = bringing things up a notch. i don't know what that notch entails though...)

i think to have successful platonic relationships, it really depends on your ability to not look at every guy as 'potential boyfriend material'/be ok with yourself, with being single

platonic relationships can lead to romantic relationships though if the other party moves in that direction the same time/same way as you/is ok with it.

i'm sorry if i'm confusing haha

yes, uk and us

still reading (but finishing!) big machine by victor lavalle

i'm sorry anon, but i'm not from ac. i just go there on sundays for church

here's a whole post detailing my week (with pictures too hurrah) http://www.cardiacprint.com/2012/01/stretch.html

i was going to say, i'm glad that someone understands how i'm feeling, but also want to say i'm sorry you feel this way, because it really really sucks.

i guess for me at this point of time i will still try to maintain the friendships that i feel are fading away. as much as i know that there are only a few friendships that are worth keeping, i am not ready to let go just yet. i guess i will actually decide in the future when everything is clearer. but for now i will try my best. it is not in my nature to give up on people

don't feel so down alright. sending e-hugz to you~
