here i am again, but not because i'm emo today.. HAha but i have a paper due tml 10 am.. And i'm not even half way through it. Talk about procrastinating.

Quite a peaceful morning. Not much happened. Pretty focused on finishing my assignment, which is really satisfying as a write more and more into my blank piece of word document. Crap or not is another question... But took some time off to get some retro songs by Prince and now i'm writing a useless blog :D
That's just me. My attention span cannot last more than an hour.. or even less. LIke what pardeep said, i cannot see through anything. i even quit hip-hop already.. I really wonder if i'll ever be able to be with ONE thing/person for good. The only things that i really really treasure are my digital babies... Laptop, cellphone, Sony-walkman.. I take really good care of them and never get bored.. mayb i'll need a robot for companion instead.. Can constantly upload software, change settings, add this, minus that at my whims and fancy... Well, we'll see how long japan takes to come up with it...

I receive comments that i think too much.
Really? What does it mean to "think too much"?
Being too sensitive, reading too much into things or just being aware of the surroundings? Being aware of how other people feel, being aware of the lessons to be learn behind each experience, being aware of my own feelings, growth, etc?
Or is it just enough to get pass each day? Going through the motion, living each day as it comes. Enjoy and forget.
I cannot imagine being the latter, to just experience and not further analysis. To just do and stop at execution. Every act, decision actually amounts to something, every consequence, good or bad, there is a lesson to be learned. Every story that someone tells you, tell you something more about that person and something that you can benefit from. So much information and each story has so many perspectives to it. How can anyone just live life and watch everything pass by everyday?
I refuse to become like an animal... Which doesn't have the power to reason. Like some youngsters that i see... Completely oblivious to the world. Believe that the world revolves around them. They seemed to have completely lost their ability to see beyond execution. Like a puppet, they are manipulated - be it by parents, teachers or fashion, media, friends etc. When they think they are breaking out of a box (parents' care) they walk into another cell (Media). When they defy for the sake of defying, thinking it proves their acting on their own free-will, they are actually proving how ignorant, childish and give parents every reason not to trust them.

My sister pointed out that i might have been one of them when i was their age.
I didn't.
I had certain principles that i carried through till today.
I can be bad, but I must be able to answer to myself. I can do bad, but at the end of the day, i must be responsible for it. There are somethings i'll never do. Friends are important but i make a conscious decision not to be affected by their likes/dislikes.

Over the years, these became clear to me. I do hope the same applies for those lost sheep out there...

Donkey years since i last post anything here...
Just found out from a friend that he actually bothered checking my blog, thank you very much...
Not exactly feeling on top of the world right now, probably that's why i decided to blog :9
Been experiencing some of the most havoc times in my life thus far.. Seeing so many things, getting to know people.. Learning the ropes of relating to people and yet not revealing too much of my inner thoughts..

I'm putting myself through some sort of training... to try and shed the last bit of emotions in me... To learn how to compartmentalize my life. To put emotions aside whenever i have to. To master the ability to say "Life goes on" and mean it...

And today just put a big fat F on my report card for this training. The past still affects me, somehow. Not great impact.. but still, this bit of impact shouldn't even exist in the first place.. His leaving early, was for the best. It was then, it still is now.

Few days ago, i pondered about my current situation. Do i really want to be doing what i am doing right now? Am i really in control of what i am doing? What do i want out of them?
I insisted that i really want to be rid of troublesome emotions and any chance of serious relationship.
She told me that it was impossible, because at the end of the day, girls want to be in some form of fruitful relationship, whereby there is someone they can return to. I used to yearn that.. I used to work towards that in every r/s.. It just gets boring/tiring/exhausting emotionally.. To try and not work out. to try again and not work out again. why? to achieve what?

as compared to my current position.
I see, i learn, i practice.
The interesting people i meet.
The commitment, or lack thereof.

There are the good and the bad.
At this hour when i need to run to someone, i find no one around me... But this is another thing for me to learn... To pick myself up when i fall.. to build a happiness that is not dependable on another. That is real happiness.. That is independent happiness that i can achieve.

rah. signing off...
