6:41 PM - Dear Clumsiness,

It's not that you're not a pleasant person to work with.
It's that you're extremely painful to work with. Really.

To the best of my humble understanding of how things work,
your work methods seem to lack proper systems, structures, and flows, and a lot of the time, you don't give proper clear instruction, and get all upset when things that you supposedly asked for, did not happen.

To make things worse, you don't seem to show adequate consideration for "lesser" people;
people who do seemingly lesser jobs than you. You do not show them welfare of any sort, and you are almost completely ignorant of their basic needs. It seems to me that all you care about is making it look like you've got the job done. It's like you don't even care to do the job properly.

And you're disrespectful, that's why I refuse to address you in this letter.

Working with you is not something that inspires me because you don't inspire me. There is nothing about your work attitude that I desire to have.

That's why Letchun left too. And William. You can bet that Desmond and Eugene and never coming back. Ever.

10:47 PM - it's like we missed something.

like something got swept under the rug; something that deserved more than just that.

something that deserved more than just overlooking.
but we thought that overlooking was what was needed, but it wasn't.

and now, we live with the effects.

10:47 PM - one week can change things.

I've always believed, in all goody-two-shoes-ness, that it would only take one week of bad choices to make you a really bad person. Mummy also told me once that after doing something repeatedly for 10 days, it becomes a habit.

Big changes happen in small periods of time. Not always, but it's possible.

See, one week can also change you. In one week, you could begin to see things differently, see yourself differently, see the way the world works differently, and so on.

One week can change you. In some cases, one week will change you.

And so, we move on.

9:27 PM - the heart.

because, you see, the heart isn't something that works like clockwork.
the heart is a muscle. it's flesh.

it's not something, like a computer, that can change once you adjust a particular setting.
it's not even like the wiring behind the computer. it's more complicated than that.

the heart is human. it feels. it feels pain.
pain that will not disappear with just one click.

to say that that's better is to say that it's easier being a computer than it is
being human.

and so you can't fix it, the human heart, just like that.

it needs time.

10:25 PM - i just HAD to blog this.
















hello, everybody.
meet caitlin. she's a very fun and awesome girl, and you should get to know her.
talking to her is very fun, and so far, the fact that we're almost a decade apart hasn't been so evident to me.

then i saw this photo.
and clearly, i'm not sixteen anymore.
she is.

we were supposed to do a random facial expression for this photo, and this is what we came up with. hehehe.
she looks funny and quirky here.
me? i just look... bad.

i'm just slowly, slowly, taking it in.
already, i am making plans on what kind of foods to eat so as to keep my skin
looking young. am also planning on drinking more water. more vitamin C.
maybe i'll even start eating bittergourd, which i so detest.

maybe grandma is right. i should get married while women still find me attractive.
hehehehehehe.

goodnight, yall.
2011 has just begun!

9:50 PM - "and she could be doing so much better, but she settles for less."


but it's her fault for settling for less. the truth is precisely that.
she could be doing so much better, she could've waited for something more,
but she's in the state that she's in because she couldn't see beyond the "now";
that something better awaits her.

so she gives up the bright future in front of her because she's choosing to settle for something that's not even second best.

and that's the cold, hard truth.

is it really worth it?
she might think that she's giving it up for him, for the both of them.
but in reality she's losing out more than him, and she doesn't have to.

the saddest part?
nobody's going to thank her for the sacrifice she's making.

because this wasn't meant for her anyway.
the decision to take this path was solely hers.
nobody else's.

it's not something she had to do.

5:23 PM - harmless reminder.

everyday is a reminder for me that i'm not to find my identity in anything or anyone else but God. that's what it is.

sometimes it's so tempting to look at people, and all the fun they're having with their friends, and feel like i'm missing out, but i've been there. and i've been disappointed.

cos you don't find significance in the people you hang out with, or even in the fact that you're out doing something with somebody.

you find significance in the Creator. In God. Nothing, and no one else.

so i try to not take these things seriously, and tell myself that there's a bigger picture to look at.
