Saturday, December 30, 2006

after 3 days i can finally log into my blog account.

but i've lost the 'mood' to blog already.

when i really, really needed to vent though, the internet crashed. sigh.

and just on the day i needed to submit my tutorial question to my teacher thru email.

GREAT.

all i can do now is hope that the email went thru, instead of getting filtered off as junk mail. i used my dad's singnet account, u see.

yesterday was spent at home doing nothing, aside from trying over and over to access my damn hotmail. succeeded in the evening.

till now its still giving me problems. damn this singtel! im switching sides to starhub i tell u!

*fumes*

so the past few days have been bad. no, not just cos of the internet ok.

but shall not elaborate.

i guess i am thankful for the much needed, long break from sch. ok a wk is not long but still.

i try not to believe in horoscopes, but damn it.. some stuff really do come true. and not those random general shits like 'it will be a busy week for you' but stuff like 'travelling will be a problem today'.

i do not need to have problems travelling, especially when the weather is unpredicatable and it rains day thru night and my clothes cant dry.

i know i am whining.

will someone help me pls.. my hotmail has hanged.

i admit ok.. i cant do w/o the internet.

SIGHS.

i dont know why i easily trust strangers, yet doubt those who are close to me.

shouldn't it be the other way round?

maybe cos once u know someone for a long time, its almost equivalent to knowing him/her inside out.. so when the person says something, you doubt him/her cos you don't think they're capable of sticking to their words, or doing what they said they'd do.

only to let them prove you wrong, once again.




on a side note, i am enjoying my hols.

well, sort of.

Saturday, December 23, 2006

looking forward to the week ahead.. with a lil tinge of apprehension.

anyways...

(way in advance)




Tuesday, December 19, 2006

in the past i used to wish that time would pass faster, cos i had too much time on my hands and didnt know what to do with it.

now i take that all back.

oh, if only i could make time stop! or at least slow it down.

there's just so much to do, and so little time.

sigh.

im behind schedule in everything.

the deadlines are piling up again. the old me wouldnt stand for this. i hate doing things last min. cos last min means ur rushing, and u cant do ur best.

so if u score shitty marks, u only have yourself 2 blame. and thats whats happening currently.

am extremely stressed.

this is rather random...

i think love causes a lot of trouble. i mean, the relationship kind of love.

say before u get attached or anything, when u love a certain someone, u almost kill yourself wondering if he/she does or will ever love u back.

then if lady luck is on your side and you do get together, then u gotta make the relationship work which of course isnt easy either.

so whether you're single/attached/married even ur still gonna get problems, just of a different scale. i dont have to mention divorcees, do i?

do relationships get stronger over time, or do people grow sick of one another and start searching again?

im beginning to wonder if there really is such a thing as 'someone for everyone'. couples that have been together for years and years and years can still break up.

and its this unpredictability of life that scares me.

seems like nothing is really for certain.

Sunday, December 17, 2006

i've deleted the previous post.

currently, having a blog appears to defeat its purpose.

i think i shall revert back to writing in a diary. shall start one for 2007.

as for now, i will keep all emotions here to a minimal, or not mention them at all.

decided to do something sweet and romantic. i love sentimental stuff!!!!!!!!!! unfortunately, had to resize the pic. click HERE for the whole deal :)

Thursday, December 14, 2006

i really don't understand some pple. like, how can they be so perfect?

i for one have never been. and probably never will be.

maybe its just a facade they put up. things appear to go well for them. everything just works out.

omg.. how do they ever manage to stay so positive?

im brimming with negatism, spite and anger.

compared to them, i feel like a total monster just waiting to be unleashed.

damn these mood swings.
they're terrible.

i guess i should be content that i lead a normal life.

let me define "normal."

in my opinion, its the usual grousing about sch work, parents, relationships and how unfair life is in general. i say this is normal as nothing really big or momentous has happened the past 19 years of my life.

ok maybe just one or two. still.
i think thats pretty normal.

i think life is fucked up.

mine at least.

i hate myself.

maybe i set my goals too high.

maybe i should just admit defeat.

as much as i try, i will never be her.

its so hard to please everyone.

i dont know why i even bother to please myself.

i want to rip out my heart tear it out and burn it

i dont want to feel anymore

i dont want to care

seems like you never really get what you ask for

screw the world

screw everything

im done




WHATEVER

Sunday, December 03, 2006

i dont understand why its so hard for me to be happy.

as in, why cant i be happier longer?

why is it whenever im happy, ill always have the fear of it being taken away from me soon?

and it always, always happens.

so i dont get the chance to stay that way for long.

im rambling.


went running again this evening. shaved off 10mins of running time.. im improving!

thereafter, went to cook instant noodles.

*watches as effort goes down the drain*

damn.

next time, i will only have dinner AFTER i get back from running.

but what if i collapse due to lack of energy?

ok, enough already joanne.



im gonna pretend its ok. i didnt see what i saw.

i didnt.
i didnt.
i didnt.

i wanna press backspace and erase it.

we all want to be loved and accepted for who we are.

we dont wanna move out of that comfort zone.

we resist change.

sometimes we hurt ourselves.

we hurt others too.

sometimes we cry.

we ache.

dont you wanna numb the pain?

maybe its better not to feel at all.
