you know how sometimes you think you're part of a group, only to realise you are dispensible and not as important as you'd hope to be. hmmmm... i guess humans are social creatures who need acceptance and that's why we try so hard to fit in. Maybe the day you start living life for yourself would be the day you find true inner happiness?

sometimes we do stupid things. like how i accidentally pressed "delete all inbox messages" on my phone. SIGH! all the sweet messages, birthday wishes, thoughts and deep conversations over sms... all gone...
haha... maybe i really get to start the year on a clean slate. =) OH WELL... *stares at phone and sighs*

you know how it feels when you feel the need to run home, sit in front of the tv to catch that episode of whichever serial you're madly in love with, only to feel a huge void in your life when the 30 episodes end and there's nothing to watch anymore? sigh...
you know how it feels like to do that for 12 seasons? haha... i do =) and i will do the same when the show's on repeat cos channel 5 has nothing else to air at 2.30am in the morning... sigh... my dear ER. i almost feel like i grew up watching it. I remember my family gathering round the tv at 8pm on wednesday nights waiting for it to come on. After a couple of seasons, it became me and my sis. Somewhere down the line, i was the only one STILL madly in love with it. haha... i was so pissed when channel 5 took it off and deliriously happy when they brought it back on again, granted it was in the wee hours of the morning.
This then explains why i'm still awake at 3.35am =)
Sigh... and people ask me why i sleep so late, don't I have school the following day? Of course I have school. Of course I have readings to do. Of course I need sleep. But i guess i like the night too much. Rather, there is a certain lure about being awake when no one is, being able to do any and everything you want to, and just enjoying the night for what it brings. There's a certain calm lingering, when the air is still and you are alerted to all movements, sounds, and thoughts that were so easy to ignore as you get caught up in the haste to live life. It's a lovely lovely feeling.
So next time you ask me why I sleep at 5am every night... this is why.

eh... cannot take your closest and best friends for granted hor. I realised it's so much easier to say no to close friends cos you think they would understand why you can't meet up/go for an outing/clubbing/ktv... cos you always expect them to ask you again 2 weeks later anyway. slowly, you start to take these things for granted and you start expecting them to always be there and treat you like how they've always treated you - much too nicely, just cos you've been best friends for so long. True enough, my friends have always managed to understand and give me the benefit of the doubt or just not hold it against me for all the nonsense I've thrown at them over the years. CANNOT YA!!! Friends don't come easily, especially as we age (yes, we are aging much too fast). best friends who've been with u forever need to be cherished even more. So, CANNOT take them for granted k. I will remember! =) I wont take u guys for granted...
It seems I'm learning more and more about myself since I came back from exchange. I don't think it was exchange itself that got me thinking but the period after exchange that I started talking more to people, started thinking more critically about issues and started understanding myself more. I guess it's a good thing. I hope it's not too late to start...
ktv with the vancouver peeps later. I'm dying to sing sing sing. It's been raining non-stop since last night. Thomson is almost flooding. Poor florists...
