obsessions

so, i'm obsessed with a lot. this includes, notebooks, lists, quotes, hats, kisses, etc.
the last one is really strange. so i shall elaborate. i love images of people locked in a really genuine, passionate kiss. so when stumbling images with the keyword 'kiss' last night, i was surprised to be confronted with this message:

'You have seen all kiss pages.'
yes, it's true. i have viewed every image/website to do with kissing listed on Stumble Upon. i guess it's ironic, as i was looking for one to inspire me to write. which i suppose, it has done. luckily, i found a few gorgeous images. here is one of them:

aww.

notebooks need explaining too. i have this thirst for them. like i need more paper to write more crap in. as i've said before, i write all of the time. but i do need them. yesterday i came up with this fantastic idea, and an hour later, i couldn't remember it. so, i can justify my need for notebooks. i currently have three on my desk, and one on my bed-side table. i saw my new notebook a week ago, and i knew i wanted it. so i just had to go back and get it. i'm the same with hats. for example, i buy hats. and never wear them. expensive, fashionable hats, which do suit me, still, i don't wear them. no idea why.

while we are working our way through the list of things i am obsessed with (this includes lists too) we might as well cover quotes.
quotes are basically a section of good writing. my former english teacher would beat me, as i should be saying 'quotations' but nobody's that picky. as i was saying. quotes are part of writing which has specific emotional meaning.
'our destinies lay entwined, never joined.'
Pirates of the Caribbean 3.
it's cheesy, but it's adorable. and i like cheese. a lot. the last quote i'd like to mention is one i grew up hearing. i used to own a motorbike, when i was really little. it was a real one too. with an actual engine. i now find the smell of gasoline absolutely euphoric. but when my father was teaching me how to ride this tiny yellow motorcycle, he would always say something to me. basic advice which i ignored last week, causing my bicycle accident. i can now look at it in a much more philosophical way too, it's a metaphor for life. if you can see what's coming, go for it, get there. if it so happens that you don't know what's next, go much more carefully. i used to repeat this phrase over and over again when riding that motorbike. this is what he used to say to me:
'go fast on the straights, slow on the corners'

awwww thanks so much sydney! I love reading your posts. one day I just kinda stumbled upon your blog (I don't even know how) and i loved it. so thanks for providing me with almost daily entertainment =]
i love notebooks to. i journal practically every night. i have so many journals and notebooks filled with stuff since like, 3rd grade, and it's so fun to look back and reminisce on the good times. ahh, memories.
and those kissing pics are beautiful... I love looking at Le Love blog. it makes me hope that one day I will get that picture perfect kiss from that special (and perfect for me, i might add) boy.
hmmm... can't really relate with you on the hats thing though... i'm not really a hat wearing/collecting person. hehe
thanks so much again for the mention sydney =D
