dark and backward abysm of time

"What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time?"....... "To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing"

Name:

"where there is love, nothing is too much trouble and there is always time"

The phantom of the mind

Felt strange being back in sch today.. i was all geared up for it and even took a cab frm clementi mrt coz i didnt' wnt to be late..i reached jussssst in time to run in...or wld have been 6 mins late max but once i entered the forum i just felt like i cldnt tkae one step further towards the LT..i just felt completely uninspired adn totally not in the mood...i hate it when i feel this way..adn to make things even harder, there was this sprawling bazar with loads of (gasp) earrings!!How inviting is that - and as if i can resist?!So i quit the self-talking that i was trying to do, coz i knew deep down i wasnt gonna go in..and perhaps for more reasons than just the earrings..coz i knew i began dragging myself even before i saw the earrings stalls.
So i walked around...got 2 pairs of earrings that i'm not exactly in love with but theyre ok i guess..and then sat arnd,read my book which i'm really enjoying despite the description 'a novel about the history of philosophy' - i mean what kinda enticing intro to a novel is that?!The book is about alot more than philosophy (as a dicipline i must add,coz at time i begin to wonder if philo is just all encompassing in a way that surpasses my understanding of it all) but in any case, i managed to use some of the time well-apart from indulging myself and adding to my earring collection and then walking around talking to random people and rare familiar faces arnd sch..and later met s&s at the sci canteen fr tea of some sort ..was chatting with s(m) abt this,that and nothing in particular while waitin fr s(f) to arrive..i enjoyed the chat tho it was more of a monologue which is often the case and i;m getting used to amusing myself..so yea....s(f) has a really nice new pair of jeans..i think it really suits her and im glad she bought it..anyways after leaving sch, had a quick bite with an old friend/senior frm jc..a very impromptu plan but i'm glad we got to catch up.
U know..i intended to write about entirely different things...things closer to my heart adn mind right now...and i had totally no intention of rambling on and on AND ON about the absolute nonsense and insignificant details of my uneventful day..i mean what was all that about?!!Sigh..why is when i want to write somethnig specific i end up writing about everything ELSE in the world?!
We learnt a phrase in jc..during GP..and i remember it coz i was incharge of explaining that phrase (we each were assigned to one phrase) and mine was 'begging the question'.
This must have been the least non-sequitor thing ive said the whole time. Thanks for the applause. *deep bow

"Wishing you were somehow here again . . .knowing we must say goodbye . . .Try to forgive . . .teach me to live . . .give me the strength to try . . .No more memories,no more silent tears . . .No more gazing across the wasted years . . .Help me say goodbye.."

Such beautiful lyrics..and music...wow...Am listening to this song now...i keep playing it over and over (i go thru phases, i play every 'song of the phase' like my mantra) ...but seriously aren't these lines just so beautiful...sigh...actually..maybe i've said it (ie what i set out to say) afterall - tho its hardly in my own words - welcome to the phantom of my mind. HAH.
I think i'll make a very good female version of the phantom- dontcha think??Fr the record, I'm D.Y.I.N.G to catch the movie btw..i simply LURRRRVED the play..was mesmerized and completely absorbed in it & overwhelmed by it..the whole mystery of the man behind the mask,the music (of coz!!!) and the magic of it all.
So many memories... damn
Alrighty...i'll leave it at this for now before i start divulging exciting and scandalous details of my life (for instance what i ate for dinner and the colour of my new earrings).. i think i shall leave you writhing in anticipation,suspense and utter anguish!
*evil laffter
Ok before i start shrieking out my adaptation of the opera...i shall truly end here.
till next time..
*the phaaaaaaaaaaantom of the opera is herrrrrre...insiiiiiiiiide my miiiiiiiiiind.........

"Past the point of no return,the final threshold -what warm,unspoken secrets will we learn?Beyond the pointof no return . . .
....You have brought me to that moment where words run dry,to that moment where speech disappears into silence, silence . . ."

ps : oh mouldy one.. incase ur wondering, nope i haven't lost my mind, tho i cnt be entirely certain at this point - but i'm fairly sane i think and hardly pining in lowve or anything remotely close .. so dont let tht imagination of urs run wild coz we both knw we have (almost) equally sad lives
:) seeyya soon dude!
