"Do You Know Half The World Is Starving?"

About two weeks ago over tea, Aw convinced me how mankind are more independent than we think of ourselves.

If we took a step back and slowed things down a notch, we realise that there are many moments you don't need company. But during these times when you actually do have someone with you, it is but a privilege.
It is not about, "why aren't you there when I need you" but "thanks for being here with me".


Just a few hours ago, I was reading through _feelosophy. A long forgotten logbook. A secret stash of memories I don't want to forget. A little scary though, how some move on while others stay rooted where they came from. A little skeptical, how empty promises and absolutes are used so freely, "I will never"; "You will always".
I am ashamed to say a part of me has forgotten, yet a part of me still yearns.
It is hard to ignore completely, yet difficult to accept whole heartedly.


And the part about school: I can never finish whinging.
Why am I not surprised I decided to slug in bed til noon instead of going for lessons.
Now I pay the dire consequences of missing tutorial- I understand zilch.
The fire alarm went off at 5 in the morning too, waking neighbours and myself. (BUT NOT MY ROOM MATE NOR ANGELA!)
And just on Monday, I went to school for an 1130 class when school starts at 1230.
ARGH.



Take away my past but don't rob my memories.
