then and now

Yes... by this time, at this age, I should be able to adapt with it - changes. I'm trying to cope with it but lately I feel like as if the world is moving too fast for me as things change before I could grab a hold of anything and I'm left floating in space with no direction.

A year ago, he was my flanker. When things went wrong, he'd always just repeat the same words with the same intonation, and I'd always be ok.

"Pelan-pelan kayuh..."

"Hang tough, big girl"...

A year ago during CNY, we were siting at the round table laughing our asses off and hiding it from the 'wives'. Although I was a newbie, it felt like family. They would always tease me running out of C12 and they'd be on skype showing off.

Less then a year ago, the 4 of us were tight.. When one of us was having a bad day, we'd just start the engine and drive somewhere, we'd sit for a while and leave our sorrows there and drive back home. Distance wasn't an issue. Words weren't either. We'd never have to say anything to eachother. We'd just know.

Less then a year ago, us 3 girls were like sisters. We would always be 'somewhere' doing 'something'. It didn't matter what or where as long as we'd have eachother, we would always have a blast.

Only months ago, we used to go out around 3am and come back by dawn. We'd see eachother every Sunday and he'd always make me talk the whole time til I eventually got used to it.


Now, we only talk once and awhile - flanker and I. Conversations are just awkward and limited. He's happily engaged and starting a new life.

This year for CNY, I won't be joining them. Just like a few others. We haven't even talked much lately.

At this time, we're so close yet so far. There's just an occasional 'hye' and that's it.

She went back to Sabah. Now there's the 2 of us. I still have one sister but it's not the same. 3 heads are still better than 2.

He refuses to see me. It's ok. It's my fault. I come back and find my things in my room. He left them there with a note.



So yea... things change too fast. It didn't matter how hard it got before this coz I would always have people to fall back on. Now, on rainy days, it gets so hard. I miss them so much..

silent note to someone far way...

Even if I blow up and even if he blows up, we promised to never leave one another...
I guess it came to an end after all. Just like everything else.


He'd take a bullet for me you know... right on his left shoulder.


Could I ask for more?


I miss you, flanker. I wish I could rewind everything and do it a different way. But then again, I believe that you're happy now and I wish you all the best in life. Just want you to know that I love you and always will.

fighting temptations


Being strong is to be okay around things we want but can't have...

chasing after shadows

It seems natural for people to want something they can't have and ignore what they are offered.

---to chase for something that is hard to get rather than settle down for what is certain.




Reminds me of Papa's flowerhorn, Bakoso. Damn picky that fish! It would rather starve than eat slow fishes.



I guess it's all about the chase, the excitement...

dear....

Things aren't always as it seems... haven't life taught you better?

how small is small?

small things can bring a big effect. sometimes, we underestimate how a little wave can actually drown us. often, we just look out for the big waves ruling out that the little ones would just break in a second.

sometimes, tremendous consequences come from little things. those little things that we overlook could make a huge difference to ourselves or others, presence or future and even to make peace with the past.

As the saying goes... "a small leak can sink a great ship".

annoyed

At times like these, I think I finally understand why being silent is much better.

No, it's not that I don't have a sense of humour.

It's just not that funny.



As I always say... I'm not depressed, I'm just annoyed.

Audacity is not greed

Some people stick with the decisions they make no matter the obstacles or better choices placed in front of them. Others explore their options til the very end and settle with the best they can get.

Do we call the 1st group thankful and the 2nd unsatisfied and greedy? or do we see the 1st as really just comfortable and the 2nd just plain audacious?

Hmm... I wonder..

Distance

Distance made you lose trust in me, made me get bored with you, made you lose interest and made me sick of your neverending demand for me to report everything back to you. It only brought us apart when we suddenly forgot eachother when we woke up and right before we closed our eyes. Being apart had us arguing about nonsense, bringing the worse out of us. Distance taught us doubt, jealousy, impatience, anger and frustration.


Distance brought an end to 'us'.


But then again, what did distance have to do with all of that?
Distance was just an excuse to stop the blame game.


To think that we would be able to get through anything after what we've been through before is an understatement.
