i feel sick to my stomach..leave me alone u ignorant ppl - yes jinn is freakin old n yes she limps n is sick..but shes 14 1/2 yrs old n theres nothin i can do abt it..if it wud make her well again id trade my life for hers, ne sec n w o ne 2nd thought...ive tried so hard to make her better, im doing the best i can...monthy visits to the vets, daily twice-a-day medicatns, accupuncture, boosters, blood test after blood test, my left arm is strained coz i carry her all the time, i never pull her leash or hit her or so much raise my voice at her, even when she pees in the hse, even when she poops in the lift - i never not tell her shes a gd dog n i never not pray that shes not in pain..i dont want to prolong her life nemore if all shes feelin rite now is pain n suffering..i can handle the physical stress, the physical effects her being sick has taken on my body...the tiredness, the 1 hr walks twice a day..the pain in my left arm...continuously makin sure shes got food n water in her bowls..rushin bk n forth to n from work to walk her, feed her, b with her..not eatin tween classes coz i walk her n feed her instead..the phy toll all this is takin on my body is tolerable, bearable....i can deal w the dizziness, sheer xhaustn..but mentally, i m at breaking point. the heartache at the thought of her nearin the end of her life...the planning, the preparations i ve had to force myself to tink abt n do: her cremation, gettin emer nos ready, saving up the money for ne emer visits to the vet, medicines, watever...not to mention seein her in the state shes in rite now - haggard, old, weak..i hate seein her this way..sleeping all the time, too old n weak to go to her food bowl..the way she stops evy few seconds when we re out walkin, so she can rest n catch her breath..the fur thats falling from evywhere on her body...her limping which is only gettin more profound by the day...how she falls flat on her face n nose coz shes so weak to walk..she stumbles constantly, falls here n there...at times she cant even sit coz her hind legs r so weak...i dont mind carrying her but i know she hates bein carried coz she tries to bite my head off when i bend over to lift her..i dont want her to b unhappy w me..i hate havin to carry her coz she hates it..but i cant stand to c her fall all over the place when we re out...n YOU STUPID PPL STOP POINTING N STOP LOOKING AT ME N HER. THE WAY SOME OF U STOP IN UR TRACKS JST TO STARE AT US HURTS.

i know she wont last that long..im afraid to take her to the vet coz she mite b put down there n then the way kitty was....i m not ready..i dont know if i shud go alone or w someone...i dont know who i shud call now to tell em that shes at the end of her days n that they need to say gdbye....i cant tink w o crying who i shud ask for help to help me ring up the cremation ppl, to arrange for pick up of her body at the vets...i dont know how to tell my bosses now that i mite ve to take sudden leaves of absence soon, coz my dog is dying...i dont know how to talk to nebody abt this....i tink i wana b alone when its time to c her go, but at the same time i dont tink thatd b the smartest ting to do...i tink i want to b alone for many days, drinking until ive puked my guts out, until ive collapsed into unconscienceness..until it hurts enough physicaly for me to have to seek medical help...i tink i want to run away, n not deal w ne human being..i jst want to b on my own, grieve for her, tell god to look after her n tell her that i hope to c her when my time has come..tell her that i loved her w all my heart n i tried evything to make her better again. tell her thank u for blessing me w her presence n love, for being the reason of my existence, for being the reason i made it this far...for making me want to b alive, for being my tower of strength n love.

i have to do something..i ve to take her to the vet..i have to talk to my bosses...i have to tell myself to b strong..i hve to tell myself that she wudnt want me to b this sad over her..i have to tell myself that she wudnt want me to b hurting myself over her...i know she wud want me healthy n happy.

but who or wat is there to live for when she is gone? wat reason is there for me to cont living? wat for? for wat? for whom? #

im up rather early today..need to head to the library to chk out some books for tuesdays class....sigh. wat a way to spend ur sundays...if i had my way id b sleepin till evening! but theres stuff to do, tings i gta get done..dont wana ve a panic attack tomrow rite at the v last minute

i had the weirdest of dreams last nite..dreamt of my 3 high school friends, it was so real..it was a sad one tho..was like it was really taking place as i dreamt it...bk in high school it was always the 4 of us - dimp, sony, kan n moi - man, we were tight..so tight evyone at school never not saw us as a quartet..was always dimp-sony-kan-me....for 6 long yrs things were the same, jst us 4..we werent so much famous but we were respectd by the ynger non-chinese ppl there i spose, mbe its coz we were the oldest non-chinese grp who got good grades, who nev got in trouble at school...the other foreign girls older than us were mainly an elite group - they kept emselves totally closd to the rest of us, they were bimbos actualy..i duno abt the others but i dint like em at all

neway kan movd to the uk when the whole 1997 thing got blown off to proportn..then sony left for the uk when her green card app from 10 yrs ago came thru...apprnetly one of the conditions was tht they had to move there within a month or 2..then it was jst dimp n me..but i went to sydney soon after, where i stayd abt 18mths...sad to say our promise to each other tht we wud keep in touch n stay the 'four musketeers' forever never happ..there were a few fone calls here n there, but nothin much else..forget letters n emails...i spose there was a misalignment of wat we each were comfy w or capable of - like sony hated emailin, dimp wasnt so fond of it either...kan dint ve a pc at home..whereas me i kept bombarin em w emails but they nev got replied..so i was discouragd n i stoppd writin altogether..whereas we cud always count on dimp to give us a call evy now n then..but i was almost nev home coz i was out w AS all the time...kan rang sometimes too but those fone calls stoppd eventually..i rang em whenver i cud but it was hard coz of the time diff - if i was home i was only home durin the wee hrs, in hk dimp d b sleepin...n sony n kan were inaccessible durin those times coz they were obviously up n ard doin stuff durin the day..blah. n it cost so much callin frm the dorms my end, i had to use the dorms idd system coz the fones were all inhouse or watever, idd calls cost a bomb..there were lots of intl students livin there at the dorm so of course they thought this wud b a gd scheme, to rip us all

when i came bk to sydney dimp was too engrossd in her newfound rel to bother w me..nev spent time w her altho sometimes i was lonely as hell...i was alone most of the time, n thank god i found a job real quick...my workin life took over so i dint need a social life so to speak, n durin my spare time after work id go to the gym where i spent a gd 3 or 4 hrs..at least 3 times a wk...i dint ve nebody but it was ok..wasnt at the start but i got used to it.....part of me was angry i spose, the way dimp dint even care to meet up w me say once a fuckin month...yea i was angry for a long time, resentd her for it...neway then AS moved here n life was complete..i felt fulfilld in all aspects of my life: career, personal, family..the social scene for me was beginnin to take off as well, as i got to know ppl via AS..most of em were workmates but no matter, i dint mind hangin out w ppl outside of the type of ppl id normally hang out w...i was so usd to bein w kan, dimp n sony by the time they disappeard i was a social freak, an inept idiot who dint know how to b or act in the presence of strangers...but AS's friends were cool, atho i wud not count em as ever havin been my true friends, they were fun

n thats how we 4 r now: distant...kan by far is the least bothered, well u cant blame her i guess...she got engaged almost straight after she movd to the uk..got married within mths, then had a baby...in a way i wish i were her..shes doin v well n is v happy w life, w her fam, w evything..i guess part of it has got to do w the way she is, her personality - shes always bn the 'taker'...she takes watever life throws at her..no bitchin no complainin, no resistance..she adjusts n copes....shes nev bn agressive i guess, i wudnt call her a fighter...shes the type who needs harmony with their environment so she changes herself to suit it...i gues she also nvr realy xpectd much out of life, always clueless as to wat she wantd to get out of it..no real life goals or xpectatns? hmmm

sony has since movd bk to hk, coz the guy she married lives here..whoa she is so into her new life it seems shes totally forgotn who she was b4 she got married...its like tht person nev existd...shes always had a gd head on her shouldrs tho, i gues she knows her priorities rite now..n rite now her priorities n loyalty r w her new fam..friends dont seem to b tht imp...no doubt she does her part, she rings n we chat..but its always done at a specific time, n we can nev talk for long...only whn shes alone or when shes not doin nethin she remms we exist i tink?

idealy i wana meet up w her n dimp but sony cant leave the hse wkends coz of some unwritten indian rule that says wkends gta b spent at home, w the immediate fam blahh...outrageous if u ask me, but no matter..i dont wana push either dimp or sony to come out on sats or sundays...yea durin the wk is apprently ok, but we cant have dinn coz they have to b at home by 8 or watever stupid curfew..hello, sometimes all this is jst so silly n dumb to me, i dont bother nemore...wat, 3 best friends cant even go out for dinn? for a drink? heavens..i dont want em to keep lookin at their watches when we re out..n wats the point of meetin up for jst 1 hr durin the wk, when we re all so tired from havin jst finishd work n all? i cant win this...

i dont call em at all, yes that is true..but only coz we dont spend time together nuff, so theres nothin to talk abt realy, theres no common ground..when we do speak on the fone its more like they say wats goin on their end, n after theyre done i do the same..we dont xchange tots or feelins..we jst have accounts of wats gone on since we last chattd on fone("oh i met a guy, we dated for a while..oh yea i also got a new job" etc)..how boring n meaningless is that? how abt the times i feel like shit n need to spew, can i jst give em a call to rant? of course not..n in my opinion, thts when it realy counts..its bein there at all hrs, no mattr wat...whn we talk on fone its realy jst idle banter....no real depth, no feelings involvd...sucks.

n when we do meet up? hmm..its like nothins changd from bk whn we were all in school, to b honest..3 single gals bitchin abt life in general...but then reality hits ya in the face in no time, when they avoid talkin abt certain topics coz its 'too private' or 'too personal' to talk abt w ur friends...there r qstns i wudnt dream of askin em, or things i wudnt even tink of bringin up..thats jst the way it is. so how can there b real friendship when there is no openness or honesty..then it all bcoms a stupid front, an act, a fake thing where we all pretend we re doin the best friends thing, but we know we re not....wat im tryin to say is, u cant b ur real self w these ppl..u cant speak ur real thoughts, share ur real feelings..1. im not comfy coz theyre not close to me nemore 2. i feel altho they ll b open to wat i ve to say, or want to say..i know they wont n cant reciprocate coz they re so secretive, they dont trust me...so i feel im gettin the short end of the stick, tellin em my real problems, sharin w em my real xperiences..the real truth...but i dont get told nothing. its discouraging...

neway the dream last nite was we all got together here in hk, had lunch...n i remm kans jst abt to go bk to the uk the nex day...n somehow there r old classmates there too, but they dont know we re there...but wat i remm most is me beggin kan to move bk to hk, w her fam..i kept tellin her how much i missd her n her friendship..pathetic me. i tink dimp n sony were bz doin smth else. all i remm is askin kan to stay here...of course she said no, apologeticaly..blah. neway come to tink of it it was probly jst nothing...dunno, whn i woke up i jst startd to tink of them all, how we ve evolved the past 3 or 4 yrs...its sad. we arent real friends nemore.. #

if i disappear into a void, will anybody notice? will nebody care? how many lives will change? will nebody know who i was? will ppl talk abt me? will nebody remember me?

for some ppl, lifes just a fleeting moment. one day here, the nex day gone forever..its like they never existed. #

Each flower is a soul opening out to nature.
- Gerard de Nerval

"...within man is the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related...And this deep power in which we exist, and whose beatitude is all accessible to us, is not only self-sufficing and perfect in every hour, but the act of seeing and the thing seen, the seer and the spectacle, the subject and the object, is one. We see the world piece by piece, as the sun, the moon, the animal, the tree; but the whole, of which these are the shining parts, is the soul."
Ralph Waldo Emerson

tonite i opend more boxes n cartons from AS...mom startd whinin abt how i gta clear up the boxes coz theyre takin up too much space in the livin rm....got so much stuff i dunno where to put or keep em..i dont wana throw nethin away, i dont tink i ever will..there r too many memories still...lots of ticket stubs, pamphlets frm museums/theaters, stuff we bought together like candles n things for the hse like letter holders..sigh. i felt sad..at the time i opnd all the boxes i was speakin to veni on the fone n she askd me if i felt nethin for him...i said no, altho i missd him a lot "but not miss him in the sense that i miss his love or i miss loving him...more so i miss his presence".."well then that means tht u guys werent meant to b together" she said...shes rite i spose. then i added that if im missin nebodys love, its tattos not nebody elses "i def feel more love towards tatto than AS" i told her. "yea u said so many times" she replied...this sux, im still not over tatto n hes moved on, n not only that but he seems to b happy..if not, happier than hes ever bn. i wonder if he regrets ever havin met me, if he regrets knowin me n fallin in love w me...i dont wana tink abt this. this is ultra stupid, i keep tellin myself that im not gna tink of him but thats all i do all day. tink tink tink...wonder if hes doin ok, wonder where he is n wat hes doing n with whom.

so i went to the demo today..i wasnt so sure abt attending it but yest i was cranky n jst sent the mail to the peta ppl, sayin i was gna b there. so there it was..there was no turnin bk...i got there late coz i slept in, stupid me set the fone to ring at 11.50a n not 10.50a...by the time i got there they were already protesting. goodness. i was not xpectin this..there were 2 chicks in chicken-feather bikinis with stilhettos!, wavin placards saying "KFC tortures chickens" n shouting at the top of their lungs "boycott KFC". boy n the press! loads n loads of em...bloody photographers evywhere, clickin flashin click click...i was terrified. so i went to hide far far away for the first 10mins...meters n meters away frm where they were. shit, i do not want my face plastered all over the papers tomorw...for a few mins i even paced bk n forth, i was nervous as shit. finaly i bit my tongue n went up to the 2 chicken girls: "hello..i emaild u sayin i was gna b here to help u guys out" they were q happy to see me - DUH, no one was there but them two..i thought there d b someone there at least, as in normal regular ppl like me..neway they gave me some leaflets to pass out...she also said to take namecards frm the press, so they know who was there. .i took it from there, it was no problem at all gettin ppl to take the anti-kfc flyers coz they were curious as to y 2 almost naked gorgeous chicks were dressd in chiken feathers in 3inch stilhettos in the freezin cold screamin at full volume...we ran out of flyers within 20mins. then the coppers came by..uh oh. i strayed further..of course gettin in trouble w the law was not my intentn. eventualy one of em spoke to me, askin me if i knew the 2 girls (holly n lisa)..umm i wasnt prepard for this. so i handled it the way i knew best: i bullshittd lol..blew em off babblin some crap like "ahem i dont tink we re breakin ne laws, we re not more than 10 ppl so we dont need permits..so y r u askin me these qstns?" i gta say they were pretty sweet tho, hahaha..even later lisa said she thought he was cute, as in he said to her "please co operate with us" really sweetly..heh. later on one of hks more prominent animal activists droppd by..actualy hes a major supporter of many animal welfare orgs, not so much a vocal animal rights activist...well known in hk, he works in the bkground, not a public figure but widely respectd by both sides..ive bn in his mailin list for a while now, but i met him jst today so that was a treat for me i guess..he stayd abt 20mins then left. the demo went on for abt an hr then we went to starbucks for some coffee....

umm the whole xperience was surreal...i felt so odd, carryin their stuff, talkin to em..ppl crowdin evywhere, pointin n flashin their cams at us..when it was over we headed to the bar where they left their clothes so they cud change, some ppl even follwd us there..sheeeeesh

oh sec #

well im bk...roy keeps callin its gettin on my nerves..sigh...makes me wana get rid of him even more :( god im not a mean person n im not the type to screen/ignore calls, but this is really too much..evyday he rings cpl times n he gives me the same bs, "im so lonely, i wanna cut my wrists n die, etc"..hello dont b so damn pretentious..its annoying, i grit my teeth n let him talk...sometimes i wana tell him to jst grow up...he doenst need to know tht ive bn there, n ringin up a semi-stranger n tellin em bs like "i dont want to live bcos i dont have a gf/bf, i wana kill myself" is both phoney n fake..all this an immature attmpt to seek n get attn...i know hes attn dprived coz his folks live in china n come home only once a wk for 2 days, he doenst seem to ve ne friends, but why me? im a total stranger to him....if he only kept his distance, or at least spared me the "i wana commit suicide" bs id b happy to treat him as i wud a normal friend...but all this is pushin me further away.

veni says we shudnt complicate our lives lookin after those who simply wana use us then dump us...shes bn there done that a dozen times n more, all its led to is heartache n pain for her...so she insistd i ring up roy when we were out, tell him i wana cancel dinn..so i did...n roy said it was ok, veni said "u see? he dint really wana go out w u...he jst wantd u to say yes at first n then b the one to tell u its ok u guys dont go out, so in effect, hes the one who rejectd u, u were not the one who did the rejectin jst now"..hmm now theres food for thought. veni cud b right...blah. mebe i shud do wat she did to that poor guy who keeps ringing her..at first she sympathizd w him n she wud talk to him evy now n again on the fone, she was even willin to go out for coffee w him..then he kept callin n callin n callin, she got sooo irritated..eventualy that turned her off n made her mad, now she doesnt pick up his calls at all. n even worse, she doesnt feel bad abt it heheh

well i told her livin in hk does that to u, u start to lose touch w ppl n ur inner self..u jst work work n work..b4 long ure numb n tired n fed up of even the littlest tings...i told her thts how me n AS driftd apart, i got a job n that swallowd me n my life completely..i nev cheatd on AS nor neglectd him..i jst became stone cold n numb n unfeeling...i startd to njoy earnin my money n thenafter, spending it..i was meetin new ppl, doin new things, i bcame a totally diffrent person..i still loved AS but he somehow bcame less of a priority in my life, i admit..i put him on the bkburner as i pursued other things like go to the gym, watch more tv at home..even whn i was home alone i was doin other things, n not callin him or emailing him or writin him as i shudve been...livin in hk u give up a lot of things, u bcome ambivalent towards the larger, outer world..u tend to bcome self centered, egoistic..u bcome suckd into this me me me world...all u want is to buy the latest fashions, the trendiest cellfone, the most high tech gadget..its so shallow n stupid. in a way im glad i got out b4 it took over my life completely...my head was growin too big it was almost gna pop. me n my stupid big head..i livd in this bubble. i was so selfish n self absorbd..ignorant, uncaring, cold, shallow.

so i told veni to bware..she said she was gettin sick of life, that all she wantd to do each day was do her job then come home, eat n watch tv then sleep n wake up to a new day...evyday. ive noticd that shes q turned off by men now actualy, not like b4 when she wud ve crushes evy once in a while n when we re out she wud snog a few of em (fyi not v desirable behavior, n im glad shes kickd it)..now she jst minds her own bzness n does her thang

oh yea we finaly signd up for bellydancing lessons, so thats one post it note on my pc desk offff...heavens..we were stil a bit shockd that we did this..."did we really do this?" we kept askin each other on the way bk..wat the hell r we tinking, lol. so far it seems there r only 7 places filld up includin ourselves..frankly speakin i rather there b lots n lots of other ppl, that way im not so self conscious..shit, i realy ve to tone my tummy now...tonite i had wat shud b my last greasy dinner coz i fig from tomorw onwards im gna put myself on a strict diet...ohwell thats motivatn nuff to drop some lbs, im fat after all...we had a gd laugh abt this, she said we shudnt b so embarrassd abt joinin a bellydancin class coz we bellydance when we out in da clubs neway..in her words this wud jst b a "refresher course to hone or perfect our skills" hahaha, shes so funny

her sat classes r gna finish soon so we re lookin fwd to that, coz this means we can party out till late on fridays..yay! dunno when we re goin out again, given that last wk she got into major trouble at home n at work coz of me..we try to go out min once a mnth, which is paltry by my standards but i realy dont wana get her in trouble..so we go whenever. i dont tink we ll b goin this mnth nemore coz its lent n we re spposd to b good tho

today had a gd day at school, the kids were a lot of fun n they made me laugh...last nite i read the paper n it felt gd, i tink i mite try to get bk into the habit of reading the paper evyday..i stoppd rite after 9.11, somehow the news began to dpress me a lot...shit i feel i ve no brain cells left tho, ive bn so inactive n ignorant for such a long time now

i tink i mite need to go to the library this wkend..hm.
nuff blogging for now, will sort out some papers for tomorws class..i feel like bein productive tonite. #

from emazing:

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Sunday March 9, 2003

Libra, from August, 2002 till Aug., 2003, the planet Jupiter will be passing thru your 11th House of "My Future." During this period, your hopes, ideals and wishes for the future will play an important role in your life. Your friends may be of considerable benefit to you now. You're apt to become more involved in group activities, for you now understand the importance of group goals and values to you as an individual. Libra, between now and August is not a good time for you to go it alone or to limit yourself to working with just one other person.

Between now and August, friends will be more than usually supportive, and you may make many new friends who will prove to be extremely valuable as time goes on. This will not be a one-way street, for you will help them also.

At this time in your life you might be more than usually idealistic and will want to improve the world around you. This is not a time to be selfish. If the changes you make in your li! fe do not affect others, they will not be as meaningful or long-lasting. Libra, whatever you sow now, you will reap in an even greater quantity after August.

- Nolan Myers

well it happened..nervous breakdown while walkin jinn..jst burst into tears. i guess its all a bit much to handle: jst havin said bye last wk..his bday today...unpackin our stuff tonite..stress over tomorws class....i was spposd to pack smth for his bday n post it to him tomorw, but i feel im not ready..i cudnt even bring myself to look at some of the stuff from the boxes..on my pc desk theres a pacific coffee plastic cup from the airport last wk when i saw him off, we were dreadin the moment so we tried to prolong the v little time we had left..it was so close to his departure time but we stoppd by at pacific coffee, so we cud have 2 xtra mins together..evy min, evy second seemd like an eternity to us, was so vital n important..we dint wanna let go..we dint wana say gdbye...
we ordered a passionfruit orange fruit juice thing..we were both sick w the flu but we ordered it neway, it was crushd ice n damn cold but we dint care..we jst wantd to b together for the last time..evy min we got, we dint care wat we were doin...n finaly, i took him to the gates..id already startd cryin on the train so he knew i was devastated, tht i cudnt b strong for him..i knew he tried to b strong too, coz he left pretty quick..i know he left coz he dint wana prolong my pain, he dint want me to c him cry..so i helped him, we helped each other: "lets not prolong this, just say bye n get goin..." i said, lookin away..at this point tears were streamin down my face n he dint, he cudnt say nething...we huggd for the last time, n i turnd away..i dint want to c him walk away frm me, i dint wana b left behind...but i stoppd n lookd bk..n he was walkin away frm me, lookin bk at my direction...i was cryin n i let out a wave, sayin bye...he so wanted to turn bk n not leave me, i cud tell...but i knew he had to go, n he had to go quick..bcos he wasnt gna b strong nuff to hold bk the tears...so he walkd away...lookin at me..me lookin at him...then i fell apart.

stayed at the airport for abt an hr, veni rang me to chk on me..n of course i wasnt so well...she let me cry, it was pretty late so not many ppl were ard...AS msgd me over the cell, i knew he was probly crying his end too..so he dint call, n i know he did it for me too..he dint want me crying more...

i hope today passes quickly..this is jst too much. i wana finish off watever i ve to do for tomorws class..then log off n go to bed. get up tomorw, do my job n head bk home to sleep some more..then bk to work in the afternoon..work till 7pm, come bk home..n jst watch tv..i tink i wont b online tomorw..i dont tink i wana c nebody...wat more its AS birthday. mebe i wil jst clean my rm, try to keep myself bz.

im so drained out of energy..i feel im out of strength..i feel weak, so weak..i feel brittle...
please let this day go by quickly. please let tomorw not b a shitty day. please let me go to sleep early tonite, so i dont ve to tink abt all this..if i have to cry myself to sleep, that is ok..jst dont let me b up till so late.

AS, im sorry ure alone today on ur bday. i wish i were there or u were here.
hugs n love. #

tired..but i stil gta take jinn out for a walk n then prepare for tomrows class...gta b up at 7, leave by 8..sigh. really really hate tuesdays. i hate wakin up so early in the mornin, esp when ive had little or no sleep...tonite i went thru some of my stuff w AS, loads n loads of huge cartons he left behind - stuff from our past while we we together..oh god, openin the boxes surely brought bk old memories n i swear i cudve burst into tears n startd crying..but mom was in the rm so i had to b strong..i tried to numb myself frm all the memories that kept coming bk, all the times we were together, those moments of happiness, of love...how we dreamed n talkd abt a future together...we d already pickd out names for our future kids, decided on the type of weddin we were goin to have, sigh :( it is his bday as we speak..xcept tht i have no way of gettin to him coz his cell is out of batteries..he is all alone today, in some god forsaken land coz the stupid travel agent fucked up..i was hopin at least he d b w his family on his bday..but no, he is all alone.. :( i wish he were here...i have to admit tht while i was unpackin the cartons, i did tink of us endin up together..us hookin up again, sortin out our differences n givin things nother go...u know wat they say - u dont know wat u have until its gone. well yes, i gta say that i miss AS..i will never say nethin bad abt him bcos he never was nethin but good n perfect n loving to me..so y dint things work out dammit?! sigh..i wish life was that ez...2 ppl love each other they they hook up, get married, have kids, n live happily evr after...

im gna walk jinn now..i tink i wana work on tomorws class when i get back, finish it asap then head off to bed...dont feel like hangin out in my chatrm tonite..dont feel like chattin to neone..jst wana not think, not b sad..i jst wana go to bed....

happy birthday AS with much love, u r beautiful. i wish i were a better person for u...i wish i cud say that i cud bring u the happiness u deserve...but i always seem to end up hurting u. i can only wish that u find that happiness elsewhere, since im unable to give u that happiness..u realy r a decent person, a kind man, a loving n compassionate person...i jst wish i was even half the person u r, but im not...pls understand, i cud nev make u happy. all ive brought u durin our yrs together was pain, hurt n sad tears. im sorry.
i will always love u

AS n RRR

tomorw is AS bday n i dont ve bubble wrap to send him the stuff i wana send..ohwell theres always tomorw i guess. mebe will send tatto his stuff too, bit by bit..i ve like 7 or 8 boxes i need to post to tatto..mebe send 1 box evy mth..yest i bought timmy a musical teddy bear..sigh, isnt it obvioius im still in love w tatt, i still love tim...neway when i was out w veni yest we bought cards, its jericks bday on thurs heh jst 2 days after AS's bday..i fig its best i wait for AS to arrive in syd first, b4 i post it jst in case his mom or dad opens his mail...i jst got an sms frm AS - hes still in bangkok apprently, the stupid travel agent fuckd up so hes not in syd yet..he was spposd to b in syd last wk! poor soul..all alone in bangkok..he mst b tired as shit.

today is 10mar..sigh..still nother 20 days till payday...wonder wat ill b doin a mth, 2 mths frm now...i realy want to find a job but i want to b home most of the time for jinn..i hate bein n feelin so useless..i hate teachin even more, its really gettin to me..its not like b4, i usd to love seein the kids n i wud never dread seein em the way i do now...i also itch to go out a lot more these days, not drinkin necesssarily..i jst wana go out n b ard ppl...coz when im home it seems all i do is blog n surf n write/read email, which is surely not productive at all? ive bn so irritable lately, mebe its coz i realy really miss tatto..i remm feelin this way whnever i havent seen him in a while..i wana tell him so much, i wana jst lay in bed n talk to him...sigh :( of course i have some pride so i cant exactly ring him up rite now or email him to tell him im missin him so bad n tht i need to c him..not tht im afraid of bein rejectd, or id feel stupid..but hes at work n hes always so bz, he wont n doesnt have the time to listen to me..i dont wana waste his time i guess. he said hes bn real bz at work, hes got few ppl under him now n stuff..

yest i told myself i wudnt sms tatto no more, that id leave the ball in his court...hmmm sigh :( wat if he never attempts to get in touch w me..wat if he doenst care if he sees me or not

i cant stand to fly
im not that naive
im just out to find
the better part of me

im more than a bird
im more than a plane
im more than some pretty face
beside a train
and its not easy to be me

i wish that i could cry
fall upon my knees
find a way to lie
bout a home ill never see

it may sound absurd
but thats all that i need
even heroes have the right to bleed
i may be disturbed
but won't you concede
even heroes have the right to dream

n its not easy to be me

up, up and away, away from me
well its all right you can all sleep sound tonight
im not crazy...or anything

i cant stand to fly
im not that naive
men werent meant to ride
with clouds between their knees

im only a man no silly red sheet
diggin for kryptonite on this one way street
only a man, no phony red sheet
looking for...special things inside of me

inside of me
inside of me
yeah, inside me
inside of me

im only a man
no phony red sheet
im only a man
looking for a dream

im only a man
no phony red sheet
and its not easy...

its not easy
to be me





> ::: the unforgiven ::: >

new blood joins this earth
and quickly hes subdued
thru constant pain disgrace
the young boy learns their rules

with time the child draws in
this whipping boy done wrong
deprived of all this thoughts
the young man struggles on

and on hes known
a vow unto his own
that never from this day
his will theyll take away

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might have been
what i felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never me

so i dub thee unforgiven

they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is

thruout his life the same
hes battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see

he no longer cares

the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might ve been
what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never be never see
wont see what might ve been
what ive felt what ive known
never shined thru in what ive shown
never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

never free never me
so i dub the unforgiven

u label me
i label u
so i dub the unforgiven

never free never me
so i dub thee unforgiven

u label me
i label u
so i dub thee unforgiven

> ::: footnotes ::: >

I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge -
That myth is more potent than history.
I believe that dreams are more powerful than facts -
That hope always triumphs over experience -
That laughter is the only cure for grief.
And I believe that love is stronger than death.
~ Robert Fulghum


If you think your love would not be welcomed do not voice it. For it be slient it can be endured, and guarded, like a flame.
~ Antoine de Saint-Exupery


Its best to not ask the questions of answers u dont wanna know, or answers which u know will only bring u pain.
~ me


sometimes you just have to learn to let things go. its hard. you let go though. don't dwell on something until it eats you away. try to see people in the now, and what they mean. not by things they've done in the past.
~ rola


Love is passion. Obsession. Someone you can't live without. Someone you fall head over heels for. Find someone you can love like crazy, and will love you the same way back. Listen to your heart. No sense in life without this. To make the journey without fallin deeply in love, you haven't lived a life at all. You have to try, because if you haven't tried, then you haven't really lived.
~ from "Meet Joe Black"


Every place you land in life has a reason and a lesson.
~ Tori Amos


One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.


The first step to finding love is to look inside yourself for it.


God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, courage to change the things i can, n wisdom to know the difference.


Life is a tragedy for those who feel, and a comedy for those who think


The greatest power we have is the power of choice. It's an actual fact that if you've been moping in unhappiness, you can choose to be joyous instead and by effort, lift yourself to joy. If you tendto be fearful, you can overcome that misery by choosing to have courage. Even in the darkest grief you have choice. The whole trend and quality of anyone's life is determined in the long run by the choices that are made.
~ Norman Vincent Peale


If you have the courage to love, you survive.
~ Maya Angelou


We are healed from suffering only by experiencing it in the full.
~ Marcel Proust


To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three parts dead.
~ Bertrand Russell
