Reality

Even now, you present me with only one choice.

To leave.

Maybe it is for the best.

If I had any doubts, they are cleared.

If you are only willing to put in one percent, that doesnt give me much hope.

You have been too careless, too carefree.

You take me for granted.

You never understood where I was coming from.

You show concern once in a blue moon.

You go less than a distance.

It is true.

You stop where others will continue.

Everything is for your convienent's sake.

You leave me achorless.

You were never there.

Maybe we built walls too high with each other.

Maybe some of it was partially my fault.

Maybe it is because you do not ask much from me either.

But I cannot deal with you any longer.

I cannot waste my time and energy.

So I thank you, for letting me go easy.

And now, all I can do is breathe.

Love

I should be grateful that...

...my parents still love me, and support me in what I do, even when I am always sully around them.

...my friends stand by me when I need them.

...my life is wonderfully good thus far.

Today, I ...

...made a new friend who took me out for starbucks coffee and dinner at cracker barrel.

...am slowly becoming immune to disappointments and rejections.

...have to buck up on my homework and assignments, like seriously!

...learned that life is not set. I can change it for the better. There are always choices. I can make myself happy. My life is up to me. And I have freedom.

...ate out... my third dinner in a row (dong-a, applebees, cracker barrel) This is amazing! Fattening, but wow, it seldom happens to me, especially when I have people paying for me. ^^


I am so in love...with life. It is beautiful. It is precious. And I am thankful that my parents gave all this to me.

Giving

The more I give,
the more people expect.
And when I pull back,
they get worried.

I think it is good, not to care so much.
Not so care so deeply.
And trust that they are happy.
Because knowing they are happy,
makes me happy too,
and less worried.
So I can get on with my life.

Eat

I think it is a good sign that I am getting back my appetite.

I could finally eat, and eat, and eat happily.

I havent felt that way for a few months.

Or maybe it is because of all the kickboxing workout.

I should go to the gym more often.

Hahahahaha.

Dreams

I had a dream.

And it scared me to pieces.

I dreamt that I was back in malaysia and I was going to go off to my friend's (SY) house in spore, to go on a trip with her dad.

Her dad was going to send someone to pick up me. When he called to say he had sent someone, I said, ok, I will start packing right now. We spoke in chinese. Me in broken chinese. And he seemed displeased because my chinese was so horrible and because I havent started packing. He hung up on me.

And soon, the person came twenty minutes later and I had finished packing. In fact, I just started. I was late. Plus, I had not eaten dinner. We were supposed to go to brazil. And my mom and sister just came back home and they were using the bathroom or disrupting my packing... And I was still packing in a frenzy when I woke up.

Late = one of my greatest nightmare.

Can you imagine the whole dream happened in one and a half hours. So long for such a short description.

I dreamed of something else too.

I dream of chinese shops. Herbal shops.

I thought of busy MRT systems, and a far-away university in england, surrounding by trees high up in a mountain.

~~~

Maybe it all means I need to start studying. Japanese exam is tomorrow and I havent started on anything yet.

I am scared of something. Something strange.

Maybe it is all the school stuff that I need to do, but havent done that is getting into me.

I cannot figure out what I am afraid of. This lingering fear.

~~~

I need a long hot bath to clear my head.

Alone

I fear for myself.

I fear for my future.

I fear for what will happen if I choose you,

because even when Im with you, Im alone.

~~~

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along

Fool.

To people who couldnt care less:

I am fool.

A BIG FAT FOOL.

I hate me.

Not you, because you have done nothing.

I cannot hate you, when there is only myself to blame.

It is easier to put the blame on myself, because I know myself.

And the only thing I have done wrong was loving you.

Kickboxing

Today, I went for kickboxing class. The first thing the instructor said was, we are going to do advance level now. I am like,"what!" This is only my first time. Instructor asked if there was any newbies, but I didnt raise up my hand though I doubt I was the only one.



It was all good for fifteen minutes, then my legs start to shake and tremble. And I start to worry, because there was still a good forty-five minutes left.



Seeing myself in the room paneled with tall wide mirrors on both sides, I wonder, is that really me?



I scare myself sometimes, because I have lost so much weight since the last semester. I look so fragile, thin, weak. Not exactly what I was looking for. I had a goal, and I surpassed that goal. Aka, I lost more weight than I thought I could possible in my entire life. My weight in now in the range of what I call "I can never be as thin as those girls because it is impossible, my thighs are too fat." Yup, I was recently inducted into their society, and my thighs still look fat.



I dare not look directly at the mirror because my actions looked all awkward, silly, and childish. Instead, I stood behind some ang mo girl, and she was big enough to hide me.



The kickboxing class great. It wasnt as tough as Plyo-edge. I didnt have to jump every second. This is more kicking, and kick I can do.



By the time I went back home and ate dinner, my body was feeling the aftermath of the exercise. I was tired and sleepy. I slept after eating one big bowl of noodles.

These few days, I was feeling more ... "evanescence - immortals".

Bad Influence

I think I am under a very bad influence.

Very bad.

Everytime I am around him, I feel depressed. I feel unmotivated. I feel tired. I feel sleepy. I feel lazy. I feel alone. I feel abandoned. I feel like the world stopped.

Everytime I walk out of his shadow, I feel depressed, but only for a while. Then, I am back to my usual cheerpy self. Everytime I see someone happy, I feel happy. It takes away my black mood and restores me to my usual self. I am back on my own path, own dreams, own hopes. The world is no longer against me. It is with me, it is for me, it is mine to conquer.

I used to be the cheerpy one, until I met him, and then it was all downfall. Down through the drains, down through the pipes, down into the sewage, down out to the sea...

I think I influenced him with my happiness. He took it all away, sucked me dry, and left me shriveled and wrinkled.

I used to love my world, and everything in it. I loved it so much. I didnt feel bothered by it. I was living in my dream world.

I know I can get it back - my dream world. I know I can achieve it. I can do it....

It is up to me...to get my life back in order. It is up to me to make myself happy again.

It is my life I am risking. It is my life I am putting on the line.

I have to do focus. I have a plan.

There is only one thing to do.

1) Love myself.

Random strangers

You know what I miss most?

My previous life.

Or rather, my childhood.

All my hopes nestled safely inside me.

And then the real world came,

With all its ugliness.

It threw me into a tornado of destruction,

and revealed pandora's box,

everything stings,

and it leaves my wounds wide open.

And now, salt is applied,

and the sores grows nasty,

but the bandages I bought,

only gave me short relief.

It is like a cycle,

that I sucked into.

My feelings falling into disrepair,

into a deepest chasm,

and the rope is short,

the light is dim,

the ground is cold,

and the tears now falling.

silently, they roll down my cheeks,

and I weeped,

for all those wrong choices I made,

for all those dreams to date,

for all those people I love,

for all those hurt they brought,

I weeped silently,

only my sleeves know,

they bear the mark of sadness,

of greatness destroyed,

of love fleetingly gone,

and hope ...

where did you go?
