Unbottled

6. Playing dumb can be the smartest move you make.

7. When inebriated, one should remain as far away as possible from any communication devices.

8. During a recession, one should invest in Monopoly, duty-free booze and chill companions. And be open to drinking games.

9. Waking up at 7:30am will always seem like a wonderful wonderful idea the night before at 11:47pm but a horrible horrible idea at 7:35am.

A grey vein

Falling behind...or ahead of my time?

1. No girl wants to be "cute". And no guy wants to be "nice".

2. Ice cream is the life-source of unrivalled happiness.

3. Secrecy is overrated.

4. There exist several different levels of 'mutual'.

5. If you skip work and are healthy, coworkers suddenly become far less sympathetic when you skip work and are unhealthy.

6. Surprisingly, reading a book that a certain person has never read can remind you overwhelmingly of said certain person.

7. You can be friends or you can be more-than-friends but ultimately you cannot be both.

8. Dreams are your subconscious' way of pointing out that you have not considered all aspects of the equation.

9. Just because you can see a vein doesn't make it a good candidate for an IV tube.

10. The best way to rid yourself of an addiction is through micromanagement.

11. Do not judge people based just on their star sign. Their date of birth isn't really something they could have helped.

12. Old pictures may sometimes be an indication of new times.

13. 'Skinny vanilla latte and mini-muffins' trump 'Wake-up call' on the list of "Best Ways to Wake Up". 'Pancakes and kisses' trump both.

14. "One should absorb the colour of life, but one should never remember its details. Details are always vulgar." (Oscar Wilde)

Oh there's an emptiness inside her

And she'll do anything to fill it in
And though it's red blood bleeding from her now
It's more like cold blue ice in her heart
She feels like kicking out all the windows
And setting fire to this life
She could change everything about her
Using colors bold and bright
But all the colors mix together - to grey
