"PUT LOVE ON HOLD,
COS HOLLYWOOD IS ON THE OTHER LINE"
i figure that as we grow older, we realize a lot of things, and as we realize these things, we lose our innocence, and our ability to laugh hard and be happy. we used to believe in the tooth fairy, which made the loss of our teeth less painful. we used to believe in santa, so we'd anticipate a happy fat man in a red suit coming down our chimneys, even though none of us have chimneys. we used to believe that a happy meal truly made us happy, and you know what? it did. until we grew up and realized that happiness costs more than a happy meal does.
this week has been horrible. a catastrophic mix of missed dates, empty afternoons, and silent nights which echo with the resounding clang of desolation. the one week where i truly felt like life was quite useless if i were to live it alone. as in, physically, alone. and it ended on a good note, this week. or well, a demi-semi-quaver of a good note.
so today was the sort of good day. or well, only the night part was. morning was good cos we had a lovely performance thing for parents' day. only, my heart broke when my bff got so flustered and stressed and i felt SO useless cos i couldn't find the right words to comfort her, i couldn't even tell jokes to make her laugh, all i could do was stand there and try to make things better.
try being the operative word here. but as i've found out, trying is the same as "almost". and almost is, well, never enough. but then again, enough is never enough either, so who the heck am i trying to kid?
there was a lil hooha over lunch cos the parents were being annoying, but hey, its parents day so yeah they can throw all the fits they want. i managed to grab books and NGs from the book sale :) though, that means i blew many bucks and hence am broke for the week.
i cabbed back to church cos i was in such a mood.. and it doesn't help that i'm so stressed over bloody group projects and shit. i'm so much more a soloist. which is ironic cos i don't like to be alone. but i don't have much of a choice, i'm alone most of them time, so i might as well make the best out of it and enjoy my lonerism, dontcha think?
was supposed, SUPPOSED, to do work, but as usual, cock ups and distractions and i threw a royal hissy fit and my phone across the room, and so i ended up watching fighting temptations with a few others instead.
and so now i am home trying, TRYING to do my work.
hark, the herald angels sing....
after that was dinner and a lovely hang out time with lovely people and this uber fun game :) i love you all :) and it was heaven, to be able to spend time with you guys again.. it has been SO long, it has been too, too long.. and sam love, welcome home! although you'll be gone in 3 weeks :(

note to self: move it, biatch, DO YOUR WORK!!
I WILL NOT BE RETAINED FOR ANY MODULE.
I STRICTLY REFUSE TO BE RETAINED FOR GROUP WORK'S SAKE.
I'VE WORKED MY ASS OFF TO GET TO WHERE I AM NOW.
SO I AM JOLLY WELL GOING TO COMPLETE IT IN TIME.
AND I WILL FLY WITH SIA AND COME BACK AND KICK NTU'S ASS.
I WILL BE A SUCCESSFUL WOMAN.
BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, I WILL BE A SUCCESSFUL WIFE AND MOTHER.
AND I WILL MAKE THIS WORK.
WATCH ME.
all i pray, is that this week will be a better week. cos this week, you really won't be around, and i've gotta learn how to find my own two feet again, so i don't keep falling over and squishing you. and this week, i will learn how to be a better cell leader. this week i will learn the meaning of discipline. and this week i will learn how to maintain my finances cos i have no choice.
i lost my faith, you gave it back to me
you said no star was out of reach
you stood by me and i stood tall
i had your love i had it all
i'm grateful for each day you gave me
maybe i don't know that much
but i know this much is true
i am blessed because i am loved by you
and i'm everything i am, because you love me..
