Idolism.It is such a strong word. Worship, reverence, immoderate veneration, blind love or attachment. It could mean so many things.
Idolism.There are some who linked the word with great gods and spirits. Followers worshipped god, believed and had faith in them. Others however, preferred to use it on famous human icons. Celebrities. Singers. Dancers. Scientists. Politicians. People who influence us. People who made an impact on our lives. People who we dream of becoming of instead of leading our pathetic little lives.
IdolismThen come the degree of idolism. Different people displayed different acts of idolism. Some look upon their idols as role models. Someone they admire from afar. Some went to the extent of obsession. Here, admiration is too shallow a word. Worship. They went about worshipping and fantasizing about their idols every single minute if the day, even if it meant following and splurging on them.
Idolism.Ever wonder if celebrities themselves have idols of their own? Did god even had someone he looked upon on? Figures. I'm sure they had. Like the saying goes, "There is someone for everyone". Is it true you may ask. Well, I guess only god knows. Fate is a powerful belief.
Idolism.It's funny how people from all around the world struggle and work so hard to become the object of someone's desire. Again, it all stem from idolism. The power to influence, to control people. And so explains the growing trends of competitions for idol wannabes. American idol, Superstar, Superband, Ms World you name it. There you go, the competition for fame.
Idolism.Is a word that allows imaginations to flow. Fame is the second word that flashes in the mind after idolism (At least, that's what I thought). Tabliods love exploiting the topic. Without idols, our lives will be dull, no doubt about it. More importantly, without idols, idolism wouldn't exist.

DrowningI am thrown into the sea of the unknown, where danger lurks from beneath. Beseiged by seawater, I summoned all the energy that I had, simply just to keep afloat, hanging on dreary to a tinge of hope. My heart quickened as I darted my eyes to the right. Then to the left, front and finally back. I was alone. Alone, with the undesirable company of predators, armed with varocious appetites, probably waiting to masticate my body, tearing it up into pieces before devouring yet another one of their "meals". Yes, I was about to end up as someone's "meal". How cool was that?
The turbulent waves were gradually draining my energy, bit by bit, until nothing was left. Letting go, I allowed my inert body to flow along with the waves, like a log. It didn't matter anymore. I closed my eyes as I savoured the last moments of my life. Memories flashed, like lightning, across my mind. I revisited and reviewed my life in a nutshell. The lies I've told, the pranks I played, the people I've let down... I cringed due to the overwhelming guilt. Finally, the two most important people in my life. My parents. They appeared, right here in my mind. I felt a tear rolled down my cheek before merging with the seawater.
Death is inevitable. After all, everyone dies. It is only a matter of time. For me, death was imminent. My time had come. The powerful waves devoured me as I felt myself being at the mercy of the sea. Unawaringly, I sank lower and lower into the aqueous world...

Why is every day so bloody dreadful? The drudgery of going to school, the frustrations of studying, the mounting stress levels as A levels looms ahead, the agony of prying my eyes open in the early morning, cramming for tests and examinations that never fail to occur fortnightly, tackling TYS questions that seem all out to kill and demoralize thyself... and the list goes on.
Currently cramming my head off for the ENTIRE SYLLABUS of geog. There's a geog test tomorrow you see... Resorted to blogging because I simply cannot stand another moment of recalling how the Rhine and Bangladesh Floodings occured, how the rivers are managed, and the amount of people who died, made homeless etc etc etc..........
AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

JJ's new album is OUT and I'm getting it ASAP! Sha Shou's MV was super sadistic la... No wonder it was banned in China and Taiwan. He acted as this sadistic guy, who killed the girl that he likes, sawed off her body parts and displayed them on his bookshelf. Then he drained her blood and decorated the very same room with it. Then he placed her head right on top where it overlooks the entire room. OMG. But JJ did a great job. Definitely. LOL. Not that I'm a sadist but it's a fresh outlook after all..
ok.. So back to reality. I know I've been neglecting my blog for a LONG time but hey, I'm stuck in the midst of Prelim 1. Next will be Prelim 2 and then the A LEVELS. The Ultimate One. There's exactly 5 months to go before freedom. FREEDOM for like 8 to 9 months? Just thinking about it makes me smile. WEEE!!! Right now, *sigh* it's like a nightmare. You're expected by everyone to study 24/7. I'm human too, u know. Anyway, enough crapping, I'm going back to the companionship of my books. Until then...

Only Love-Trademark
2 a.m. and the rain is falling
Here we are at the crossroads once again
You're telling me you're so confused
You can't make up your mind
Is this meant to be
You're asking me
[Chorus]
But only love can say - try again or walk away
But I believe for you and me
The sun will shine one day
So I'll just play my part
And pray you'll have a change of heart
But I can't make you see it through
That's something only love can do
In your arms as the dawn is breaking
Face to face and a thousand miles apart
I've tried my best to make you see
There's hope beyond the pain
If we give enough, if we learn to trust
[Chorus]
I know if I could find the words
To touch you deep inside
You'd give our dream just one more chance
Don't let this be our last good-bye
[Chorus]
That's something only love can do
