“And maybe you don’t go to hell for the things you do. Maybe you go to hell for the things you don’t do.”

It hits you

Sometimes, it hits you.

It hits you that you are alone in what you think and how you feel. It hits you that life is unfair and at some points very challenging. It hits you that you’re too good for some but never enough for others. It hits you that there may be more than living for yourself and what you believe in. 

It hits you and once in a while, you stumble for a long time before setting yourself straight again.

This:

is HOTness epitomised. And reason 12467 why JAG rocks.

More haste, less speed

“Positive outlook on the IR, increase in tourism and 2010 Youths Olympic might boost demand for the industry.” Excuse me but since when does the three things correlate with growth in the home entertainment industry?

And people have to wonder why I turn into a fraking anal bitch when it comes to report editing.

 

Random: I am in love with Catherine Bell.  

Closer to heavens

In the company of good friends, time stands still.
And the world is alright, as least for awhile.

I miss being 18.

I miss being fetched to school in the morning by daddy. I miss standing at the busstop with debs for jh. I miss seeing the sleepy odacers at our table. I miss the frantic homework copying. I miss the mad scramble for places during the “baby elephant walk”. I miss strolling to lectures and classes with the class clique. I miss our uber long breaks. I miss long odac sessions. I miss laughing at/with each other. 

I miss the feeling those little sweets and notes we gave each other to spur each other on. I miss how every waking moment is spent doing something or being content. I miss knowing that each day will be at least relatively okay, if not good. I miss believing that the world is my oyster and that I’m indestructible. 

I hate dislike this point of my life.

I dislike how efforts dont commensurate in results. I dislike the lack of gainful employment at the end of this road. I dislike manipulation and lies. I dislike transient happiness. I dislike unfading scars. I dislike disappointing my parents. I  dislike watching beliefs crumble and morals erode in all that surround me. I dislike regrets and pain. I dislike all that I thought could but never will be.

If I’m so fraking unhappy, why am I still holding out?

Internal Locus of Control

is what I really need right now. 

I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies. For the hardest victory is the victory over self.

— Aristotle

For Now

“For now we’re happy, If not overjoyed.
And we’ll accept the things we cannot avoid, for now…
Everything in life is only for now.” ~ Avenue Q
