Too many layers>Layering
Layer by layer, again and again.
It was something she understood - something that was fact set in stone, engraved in the ages, yet it was only now that realization had sunk in.
These people...
The smiles, the laughter and the intricate lively dances woven together into a beautiful sticky web.
Tangles.
They were as real as the intangible ideals people hold dear to their hearts.
They were as solid as air.
They were no more than nothingness.
She understood that there were facades - too many to count, too many layers woven in.
And yet she had let herself embrace that seemingly perfect, that seemingly wonderous thing.
What was she thinking?
Or rather, was she even thinking at all?
And when that tangle snapped and wavered under tension, she caught a glimpse of the ugliness within.
It make her recoil in a mixture of fear and disgust.
She saw the hidden depths.
She saw the imperfection.
And suddenly, was reminded that it never was perfect in the first place.
...
Perhaps that was why she was here now, standing here at the edge between reason and idealism.
Standing at the edge...
For he, the epitome of perfection and everything she dreamed of, had reached out to her...
And asked her to come along.
She smiled - a rather bittersweet thing.
She would, will, always choose idealism.
"You came."
She smiled, reveling in the dark velvets of his voice. "Yes, i did."
"Let us go."
She nodded once, turning to follow him almost at once, never sparing that cold, practical reality another glance as she faded into the haze of perfection.

Warning!>Oh gosh.
I just came back from the NUS musical - Swingers, i think. Ah~ Heck the name. Anyway, yeah, just came back like...an hour ago. Stupid shit.
There was a jam on the way back which costs me 18 bucks in cab fare. Damn.
Anyway, that's not the worst of it.
The musical, which costs 15 bucks, was the worst musical experience i had the misfortune of ever experiencing.
The 2 hours plus was pure torture.
If not for the fact that my dear friend and her co-actor, and some other side actor that went by the name of Ricado or something of that sort, i would have left without a second thought.
It was a musical.
So the most important thing is supposed to be the music, right?
Which was horrifying.
The lyrics were terrible. And believe me - i'm not known to be fussy about music but i cringed at the lyrics. They don't flow, they don't rhyme, they don't sound nice with the tune. Basically, it's like trying to fit a piece of prose comprising of huge bombastic words into music.
It didn't work.
In fact, it more than didn't work.
It turned out to be a nightmare.
Plus, the actors and actresses can't sing for nuts. Or at least they can't on stage because they kept going off-tune. So think about it: The lyrics were nightmarish, plus, the singers couldn't sing it right.
Like duh~ That's what you get for trying to act, dance and sing at the same time. Not to mention you're on a stage with lights. Come on! The least you can do is to pre-record the music! At least something will turn out right - not that it helps much since the lyrics were terrible.
Yes!
I just can't get over the fact that the lyrics were so horrendous. Like...if you can't write lyrics, don't! Especially not for a musical which tickets cost 15 freakin' bucks!
And yeah.
The props were rather slipshod too, unprofessional and all but yeah, i can close an eye to that since it is a musical and all.
And my conclusion?
I'm never ever gonna attend another NUS play ever again, especially when it is overpriced with music that makes me cringe. And that's a first. I can't ever remember having cringed at music before - not unless you count the chalk screeches on the chalkboard as music.
Plus, the roses were wilted, dead and dying. And they cost a freakin' two bucks.
Argh.
Bad experience.
Very bad experience.
I'm never gonna go back there again.
I mean, if you're gonna hold a musical, the least you can do is put your best effort into it instead of coming up with some slipshod work. It makes me wonder what the heck the rest of the audience were doing, clapping and cheering so loudly and enthusiastically for such~ argh.
Plus! The jokes they made should never surface in a supposed 'classy' theatre that only allows late entry during breaks.
Gosh.
I don't know whether to laugh or to cry at the fact i just wasted my friday night.
Well, at least i met up with my dear friend. I guess that overrides everything else.
However!
This doesn't change the fact that the play still sucks.
It's a fact set in stone.
How unfortunate for them~ (Like i really care) # posted by blade | 10:07 AM

Stupid, helpless people who think they're so smart. Argh, i can go on and on. But then again, what's the point in doing so right? Their insignificance isn't even worth mentioning here.
