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"

non sequitur

So we're down to the last night of the long CNY hols...its been a good break and Its been nice to have a little time to do everything i've been wanting to fr a while now..catch up on reading, (and marking!) and enjoying leisurely time with family adn friends..and more importantly time to do nothing at all. to just be still and relax..i think its restful. of coz there are times one craves action and a stretch of non ending plans and engagements..being kept so busy you don;t really have time to think. i must admit it is quite nice to be on a roll, to feel like your doing so many things..stretched to the max but i think it makes you feel alive. and then there are days when you don't really want to do anything at all or be with anyone else but yourself.
This song's playing rite now..random selection :
'So little time
Try to understand that I'm
Trying to make a move just to stay in the game
I try to stay awake and remember my name
But everybody's changing and I don't feel the same
You're gone from here,
soon you will disappear,
fading into beautiful light
Cos everybody's changing and
I don't feel right'
Its funny how we sometimes, the very lines we hear or read several times, just suddenly come together and find a whole new level of meaning in your life. It makes sense like it never has and just like that something clicks. It's happened before...be it a quote or a few lines frm a book or lyrics of a song..and then you're stuck in a moment with the words ringing in your head like an incessant buzz and then you feel like you're entire life is a music video :S now that's strange really.

what i appreciated most these hols was the quiet..its been overwhelming. and it's almost over..tmrw it's back to reality. back to sniffy, coffy,whiny 8 yr olds..who see me glaring at them when theyre chattering away during assembly and pretend to ignore me (this is when i calmly walk up to them and drag them out of their blissful ignorance *of me*)..those who get dust in their eye and cry coz it hurts to open them and then cry somemore coz they don't know wht else to do..those who can't sit still in class or stand still during the national anthem...when every little thing is a major complaint, frm 'he pushed me!' to ' he said the s-word!' ie shut up or stupid.

sigh...yep..tmrw life goes back to normal.
cheers.
