All I see is DARKNESS.
All I feel is COLD.
All I hear is CRITICISM
All I want is PEACE
and a SMILE on your FACE

I don't know

I used to eat like a hungry wolf. But these days when I eat out I realized that I am almost the last to finish. I enjoy the food I eat, but these days every meal I eat weighs heavily on my shoulders. Each mouthful of food I take, I think how selfish I am, if only I curb my food intake, the money can be used for medicines, bills, provisions and food for home. Yet, each time I still spend some money to eat out, blame it on my lack of will power, lack of discipline, my thorough selfishness for putting myself first before thinking of my family.

Lame, I call myself, giving myself excuses, it is pretty obvious that I need a part time job, an extra income, yet I don't do anything about it. Some people may think: what la this girl, don just complaint, do something about, get a part time job, go earn that extra bit of money. do you wanna listen to my excuses? Apparently, I hate sales (so any sales job is out of the question) and I don't like to give tuition (I don't like to teach for money). Lame lame lame excuses, right? But I don't know how long I can last? I am very tired these days, and I don't think my health is very good either. How am I supposed to stand after work, and on weekends? Will I be able to, if I put my mind to it? Can I really do something I don't like for the sake of my family, knowing how detrimental it will be to my health? I don't know I really don't know.

It is all worse, because sometimes (most of the time) I have to hide all this from public eyes, from my family and my friends. I have to hide my tears, be strong like everyone expects me to be. I am not strong, I often need a shoulder to cry on, but as always I end up writing something stupid like this, sitting in front of the PC and and crying my eyes out. It's too heavy, this burden is too heavy, how much longer can I take before I collapse altogether. Yet, it is my burden, my responsibility to carry, my only thing that still roots me to this life, because in the end I only have my family, and their happiness is my happiness. They are suffering under my incapable hands, their suffering make it the worst, because I keep feeling like I am never doing good enough, never trying hard enough. They never feel that way, I know, but still I cannot bear to see them so unhappy, yet trying to hide it from me, trying to protect me, trying to show that I have done my best.

Am I doing all this wrong? Is everything I do wrong? I don know i really don know

How I wish I had someone to cry to, instead of my pillow and the laptop screen........

In the end, I still don't know.....

Dreams

My dreams (yeah, the ones I have when I sleeping, not the ones during me being conscious), my dreams are becoming nightmares these days.

1) I keep bringing work back in my subconscious mind, so I keep dreaming about work, about things that I haven't done, things that might go awry (yes yes, they are always bad dreams, not one good one, such as getting a promotion/salary raise), sometimes I wake up after dreaming and make notes on things to do in work tomorrow because I'd forgotten about it today.
-- My take on this is probably because I am handling too many things at work, I don't multi-task very well. I prefer to do one thing at a time. I can't be a PA, secretary, office girl, "hey-girl", ordering stuff girl, making sure the things are not running out girl, photocopy girl, babysitter, MLT, research assistant at one time. So, in doing so many things at one go, I often forget small things, and sometimes have no time to do it. But, what the hell, that's my job right? I should do it without complaints. Probably why it has been manifesting in my head at night!

2) i keep having dreams of losing my loved ones, my friends. Mostly they are vivid and almost like real life. An example would be yesterday, I dream meeting up with a "long time no see" friend (A), everything was going well, we were talking, remembering the past, until I suddenly asked him about another friend (B) who I haven seen in a long time, and a lot of our mutual friends also don know what happened to B. Then, A told me that the from what he heard B was suffering from some sort of disease, infection from acinetobacter, and had only a few more weeks to live. Immediately I start crying my eyes out, I was so worried, because no one knew where he was, and I really wanted to see him, really wanted to help him out. I woke up with my heart beating so fast, that the first thing I did, was to pick up the phone, and start texting him (however, I did not msg him because I din know what to say, after so many years of no contact).
--I think this happens probably because subconsciously I miss my school friends very much, and yet I have no courage to meet (no, I din do anything wrong when I was in school to fear them, it's just that I don know what to expect, and also probably I have got the "zi bi zhen", when I stay away from people I once knew unless they are really2 my very good friends). Another reason is probably because I am so worried about my family's and friends' health.

3) natural Disaster are next. Often I dream about Tsunami, esp Tsunami and Great Floods. Once, I dream that I was at an island, and I met a very nice guy who took great interest in me, we were at the seaside tennis court and they were little children every where. Suddenly I see this tsunami coming, it was huge, we turned to run inland, everyone was running, it was one huge confusion, and we were in the court with huge fencing, we heard crying, there was a little all alone at the other end, the one near the sea, he took one look at me, smiled at me, let go of my hand and ran to the kid, all the while shouting to me to run for my life, I din wanna leave but I had another child with me, i couldn't be selfish, I had to protect the child, i ran and when I turned back, I saw him pick up the child and make for the inland, but they were too late, the wave came crashing down, I was pushed to the trees, grabbing hold of them with a child in my arm, to watch him and the other child disappear into nothingness, I cried and cried, but I never let go of the child. Woke up feeling very scared, very sad, wondering will this happen in real life.
--Well, for this I have no other reason besides worrying about the end of the world I guess

4)Moneyless. I dream the other I did not get NSF scholarship, I was so devastated, I was crying like a baby, crying to the kakak at the counter, saying that I cannot survive because I have too much responsibility, too many debts and loans to pay until the kakaks said jgn risau dik, ini bukan akhir dunia, masih blh pinjam loan. I woke up crying, my pillow was wet, I spent another 5 minutes crying and then took my bath and said to myself, so what??
--as the dream reflected, i am most likely worried about my financial situation.

Hahaha, those are some of my nightmares these days, looks like I haven't had a sweet dream for a long time. Hmmm.. wishing myself a goodnight and sweet dream.
I feel I am getting a bit sensitive, a lil quick tempered, very impatient and not understanding.
I am sensitive to peoples' words, peoples' judgement, but the weird thing is I don get angry at them, I get angry at myself, thinking why didn't I do properly, why couldn't finish my job then proceed to something else, why why this why that? Angry at myself, causes me to be quick tempered, a little mistake by others gets on my nerves, i become so impatient. I have been become my old self again? My young old self, whom I don't want to be again!!!
Luckily, this time around I am capable of thinking, thinking of the people around me, why should they bear the brunt of my anger and sensitiveness? There is NO reason for me to be anger, I SHOULD NOT have reasons to be angry. When I feel myself getting angry next time, all I should do is, close my eyes and count, or just leave the area. Haha, easier said than done. I don't wanna feel angry anymore, I have too many other stuff to do in life, too many people to look after, too many people who loves my smile rather than my frown. I don't my anger to get the better of me, no matter how deep/ how troubled I am.
I love you all too much

He's just not mine

One of my poems from my english class during undergraduate class, just thought of sharing

It was just another day

I sat on a heap of hay

Wondering why the sky’s so gray

No more lovely, cheerful May

Then I took a walk down the bay

At the quay I saw him sway

Aye, I felt my heart led astray

Watching him from far away

As I closed in, I started to pray

Wishing he would stop and say

“Pretty gal over there, hey!!!”

But all I heard was donkey bray

Everyday I watched him like he was prey

I wanted him so badly, I’d pay

Patiently I waited; I feared I’ll turn clay

Under Mr. Sun’s frightful ray

One day, he took a turn and came my way

The drums in my heart began to play

I knew it wanted to do a relay

So, I stopped him and made him stay

I could feel him start to fray

All around, I saw birds named Jay

My heart painfully did they slay

With the news that he was gay
