First they came for the communists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Was planning to spill the beans before going on a getaway. Somehow, it feels right to step back for a while, let reality sink in/ digest/ ferment/ and finally return to dust before archiving you into my life.
My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love...

I don’t feel like myself tonight and I can’t stop crying. It’s as if something terrible has happened and I’m trying to suppress it because I can’t remember what made me depressed. I know vaguely it has something to do with work but I can’t word out why exactly. I just want to sit here, and cry, and I’m doing that now but it doesn’t seem to make me...
” Right now, it feels like you mean the world to me. Simply talking to you makes me happy. Or knowing that you are there. I am perfectly contented just to sit with you, and busy myself with anything- to read a book, stare into space, listen to my music, listen to your music, close my eyes, and be tucked away in this little sphere of happiness while the rest of the world burns. “
Bored
Bored people hang around facebook and feel even more bored.
Bored people play scramble with friends and get bored the moment the game starts.
Bored people ignore their games on Draw Something because drawing is boring.
Bored people have zero concentration.
Bored people have restless thoughts.
Bored people have minds with wings but bloodless limbs.

Need to rant.
DEAR MOM,
I LOVE YOU but PLEASE stop giving me shit about returning home late as if it’s I queued up for it and getting all pissed off with me eating a late dinner like I get HIGH FROM GASTRICS OR SOMETHING. I DIDNT SIGN UP FOR THIS. ITS NOT 3 MONTHS YET. Start yelling from 12th March onwards okay??
YES I know that I have very little hours from freedom- barely 2 hours...
Have came to the conclusion that I am incapable of having dreams. What I have are only bubbles of inspirations. Dreams are fed by passion, at least by mere interest… which for me, doesn’t quite last. Thinking about it, I’m not someone with strong beliefs. I take a stand, yes, but I don’t feel even like, 80% convinced of those stands. I lack the stamina to have a dream.

FEBRUARY.
Shop and exercise!

It's not me, it's you
Have just realised I have completely given up on a friend. Sigh. Things between us are too complicated and too painful.
And this mistake makes me doubt myself constantly, if I can be ever sure enough make a decision that I would not regret in the near future. Because if I were to take the wrong step, I’d have to go through another mess that I really cannot afford to go through emotionally...
