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"

Nonchalant

There's something very comforting and reassuring about meeting up with old friends..ppl who have shared your past and remembers the stuff that you've left out..sitting around and reminiscing about 'the good old days'.. remembering funny incidents that have the least significance at least a decade down the road..and yet laughing all over again over classic follies and blunders which you think noone's gonna remember, but actually noone's managed to forget!Been great catchinh up with jazz...im so glad we're back in touch despite the yrs events adn distances between then and now.
Mould has gone back...started missing her even before we got to the airport..felt weird and so familiar it was uncanny..i hate the empty feelign u get at the departure gate man!Felt sad thru out but im real glad i went to see her off...Had a nice v-day with her though it wasnt much time..finally got that much awaited manicure done!Miss de mould..and mould if ur reading this : hope u had a fab time in perth!Email me soon!!
I've been trying to post somethnig fr ages now...but i just manage to save half written drafts...ive so much to say but its just stuck somewhere btwn my throat and my lips..in this case extend the metaphor to apply to typing it all out!Havin a bad case of writer's block...no idea why..and yet i feel there's so much i wanna let out of the system.
I shall whine abt the weather...my favourite activity recently..but can u blame me when the weather is SO HOT AND SICK..and the air stinks all the time,the grass is no longer green but yellow and parched looking...there have been so many bush fires - can u imagine that, bushfires!in spore!Kaliyug indeed!it was in the papers tht its been the hottest summer in 29 years so go figure!
Ok now tht im done with thaaaaat...i shall whine abt the dust and debris and loose wires all over my house coz my mom had a brain wave,combined with depression and some bizarre inspiration to "live life to the max" and decided to renovate our house - which we renovated adn moved into only 3 yrs back!Its madness - we've been nomads the past few nights, sleeping in dffernt rooms,no lights,no fans no anything!And we had to choose the hottest period of the millenium to do this!!Grr!
Im havin a so called term break...which lasts till thurs and i have a test on fri - so its gonna be some term break..bleagh..
Excuse the mood...well, so even if u dont - tuff. its MY mood. u try hving to find EVERYTHING under piles of rubble and tiles and wires, all the time!And havin to bear with a power cut every 2 minutes!And let's see if ur still chirpy and likely nominee of the ms/mr congeniality award!!
Lkin frward to meeting up with pooh to discuss her assignment on South Asian feminism and the prejudice and cruel treatment towards widows,single mothers etc..gonna watch a few of my fav woman-power kinda movies...and analyse..and also get my work done!!!got deadlines comin up reaaal soon and tht test!! *trying to mke myself panic!*
Also gotta catch up with ribena soooooon...ribena if ur reading this, hint hint!! Miss ya dude and hope to seeya soon...hope we can do something on sunday.. well lets see how - wil talk to ya real soon k!
Been in a bitter sweet mood all week...drama fest made things much better...it was sooo nice being back..cant describe it...i just got a really good feeling... seeing ppl ive not seen in ages...and it felt good to be part of something tht brings so many diferent ppl from differnt generations tog..wish mould and pancake were there tho...it was quite a big reunion this yr, was special....its put me in a nostalgic mood..(actually, happens quite often with me.. even normally) but been thinking alot abt the ppl in my life..and abt blessings and what makes me happy...
I guess its important to stop every so often...and stop whining abt the weather...and to just count your blessings...
Nvm if theyre not the same ones as the yr before or even the week before..nvm if the nos dwindle...they're still blessings and atl east there are still blessings to count and be thankful fr.
There are so many ppl i'm thankful to know...both old friends and new...Its nice meeting and maknig new friends...its beautiful watching/experiencing the evolution of a friendship..when it grows from just an acquaintance to something so much deeper, into a special bond between ppl who've grown to become friends... and there's a gd example of a kind of change i'm not allergic to.
So i dont know what ive spoken abt all this time or why ive said all this...probably to avoid getting down to what id like to think/write abt...
Soon soon....can't run and hide from ourself forever now can we?
