Autumn

With autumn here, everything is supposed to beautiful. BUT I guess just like autumn too leaves start littering the pavements making the whole street a whirling mess when the wind blows. I guess you could say that this is totally parallel to whats happening in my life right now. There have been some pretty good memories with my housemates, autumn fest, etc. but things are happening that is making me quite pissed. I guess whatever nonsense that is happening will die down soon HOPEFULLY. ARGH! What’s wrong with the world people! I honestly have the urge to just go to the beach and scream my lungs out at moments like these. It’s really these situations that test your patience and remind you WWJD. I know its so clichéd but maybe the reason why it’s said so much is because the principle behind it is actually true. Keep it simple people- life as it is complicated enough :) I’m fine la. Just a lil frustrated at life on an occasional tuesday.

life's reflective moments

Sometimes you go around in live worrying about trivial stuff that seem so important to you (when its really not) that you need something to wake you up to reality. That is exactly what happened today. I was just going around my daily routine- school, house 3 gossip sessions, friends, and worrying about other stuff when I first heard from nikolai that Vanessa burst her blood vessel in her brain and is in a coma. I seriously thought he was shitting me when he first told me but just moments later I got another message from Rachel telling me the same thing. It was really a “WHAT?!” moment. It was pretty sudden and quite surreal. I’m still in a state where reality hasn’t really sunk in yet but I know the seriousness of the situation. I mean waking up from a coma can take years. You’ll never really know when the person will wake up and if she wakes up normal and healthy again. I think when we finally get to see her in the hospital then will reality sink in. It’s just really VERY sudden and I can’t even imagine how her parents are feeling right now. It’s these kind of moments that really make me realize how fragile life really is. You can be well one moment, but the next moment, you're in the grey area floating between life and death. I really hope she wakes up fast and she’ll be well soon. Our prayers are with you Vanessa.
