as time goes on, moral and energy plunges.
there are so many things i dun understand.
why?
god is never fair.
or rather,
there is no god,
at least for me.

Mag is right...it is time to move on. LA was amazing..the memories stay..but now, it's really time to settle back home and start working hard for my goals once again. no point dwelling on LA, just be thankful for the short-lived but wonderful stay there..:)
the weekend has been pretty good...finally got down to doing some work. but there is really still A LOT to clear..it's ok.. step by step, one by one...i dun wanna get as stressed up as the previous semesters...i think i am old enough to manage it better..
being in a relationship is tough. but its all about ur choice. if u choose to hang on, make sure u do wat u said u'd do...otherwise, u'll be letting the other party down. i shall try to live by that...move on from the past...look into the future.

where has the sun gone to? it just keeps raining and drizzling...there goes my plan to exercise more and be fit...maybe..the sky is waiting for some things to clear before it decides to grant me its rays...some things are just so strange...some feelings are just impossible to mask...some things gone the wrong way will never be the same again...no matter how u try to hide it and pretend nothing has happened..sometimes, life is just so......
now i am just looking forward to the term break when i can have sm relief from a certain module..its a pain. and i wan to escape again...
i am no longer myself...i have joined the oversleeping club. DAMN.

i am still in a weird mood..
