Nothing happened.

Back to the drawing board.

2 Down…

Filed under: Issues Close to Heart, Life — Nicholas @ 4:11 am

Christmas is over, I got the cash injection needed to enjoy a few more weeks of holidays.

I got my results back: A+, A, A-, A-, B; with a CAP of 4.5/5. Just missed out on being on Dean’s List.

Consider it as 2 down. What about the last? I wish I could say ALL DOWN! This would be the happiest ending to a year in my 21 years of life thus far.

Raindrops

Filed under: Life, Musings — Nicholas @ 3:12 am

The second Gintama ED is stuck in my head. Its very catchy, even though the lyrics are quite cheesy. I guess the theme of raindrops really applies to me.

For some reason, I seem to be stuck in a void. I’m handicapped by my lack of money, so I’m unable to go out. I stay at home and hog the computer and PS3, but then I get sick of both rather quickly, because of a lack of games. I can’t download games fast enough, and I do not have enough money to buy new games. I get lethargic very easily, but I wake up after napping for only 1 hour. Little by little; alone they are definitely not irritating enough to frustrate anyone, but cumulatively…. It’s just like those irritating drizzles that are large enough to force you to stay at home, but not huge enough to to seem to last long. So one is perennially hoping for the rain to stop, but it is widely known that such rain lasts the longest.

I know I’m whining, and that there are loads of ways around this situation I’m in, but hey! It’s the FUCKING holidays man, it’s almost a given right for one to slack away. Oh well, there’s loads for me to do, I must admit. Regaining some semblance of physical fitness, writing those abandoned novellas,  finishing those thick non-fiction books etc.. I ought to start planning for next term too.

Guess it’s one of those habits of mine: Accumulation and procrastination till it cannot be ignored. Oh well. Time to start gritting my teeth and ease myself back into the rigors of university life again.

And yeah, I guess I ought to widen my social circle. To do that of course, I’ll need to exorcise the demons of the past, and close those doors I’ve left open behind me. I need to snap that vicious cycle, and that means I ought to stop thinking of you that way my dear. If it doesn’t stop now, the next I know it, I’m 40 and all alone, with only my thoughts and imagination for company.

Watch this space, I’ll be uploading some of my own short stories when I finish them. Hopefully. I should start with the Mary and her lamb piece.

So this is what you call Life?

Filed under: Issues Close to Heart — Nicholas @ 12:54 am

The end of semester 1 finally arrived, but the period following the end of exams didn’t really live up to its expectations. Here I am, sitting in front of the computer, wondering what is it I should do. Should I write (no mood), should I blog (not what I wanted to) …

FUCKING HELL I AM JUST FUCKING FRUSTRATED.

Forget it

Filed under: Song Lyrics — Nicholas @ 2:35 am

Its a crime
you let it happen to me
Nevermind, I let it happen to you
Outta mind, forget it
Theres nothin to lose but my mind and all the things I wanted
Everytime I get it, throw it away
It’s a sign, I get it, I wanna stay
By the time I lose it, I’m not afraid
I’m alive but I can surely fake it
How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me?
You’re the part of me that I don’t wanna see

Forget it

There’s a place I see you, follow me
Just a taste of all that might come to be
I’m alone but holding breath you can breathe
To question every answer counted

Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way
Forget it

It’s a crime, you let it happen to me
I don’t mind, I love it
Easy to please
Nevermind, forget it, just memory
Or a page inside a spiral notebook

Just fade away
Please let me stay
Caught in your way
I can live forever here

How can I believe when this cloud hangs over me?
You’re the part of me that I don’t wanna see
I can live forever here

-Forget it, Breaking Benjamin
