Relationships

Relationships

The older I get, the more I realise that relationships play a huge huge role in our lives.
Romantically wise, platonic or family wise, we all need a fair share of all three I suppose.


Suddenly people left right center behind and sideways break up, patch up, found someone to attach themselves to. Some friendship sours, some drifts, new ones forged and others strengthen. Many others remained in an awkward limbo.


Priorities (I seriously can never learn how to spell this word) seems to change with age.
At teenage years, the thing you probably cared most in the world was probably whether you had friends that you could relate closely to.


A little further down the road, you probably have a group of people who you know will definitely be there for you no matter what happens. Then you probably might be on the look out for potential mates. And so on and so forth.


Been hearing some stuffs in the recent weeks.


Have to say I was pretty disappointed. But yet at the same time, it was the kind of ending I was expecting to happen? Just that I didnt voice it out, because that wouldnt be very nice of me, would it?


And so, this has certainly changed my outlook on some stuffs around, and I find myself bordering on the line once again.


Something that I thought was over already.
To cross it or not....seems wishy washy and very unlike me. So hum ji.
Maybe I should really give it a go.

On a slightly related note, its kind of *insert adjective* that sister's already, almost, nearing, bordering, toeing 30.

And that she will be getting married by latest 2016. Its all weird. I cant describe this feeling.
Like getting married. Married. This word keeps resonating in my head.
What does it exactly entail? Will her life eventually be like my parents'?
What kind of values will she uphold in her family?
How will she manage a household?

More importantly, I feel, is what's going to happen to me after she gets married?
I feel like a lost child. Maybe the word "lost" wasnt appropriate.
I dont know how to describe.

Maybe I am just weird.
Seeing my own sister get married. Weird max.
Isnt it supposed to be normal?


I've drawn up 2 plausible conclusions:

1) I am not matured enough
2) I am really a weird boy and that weirdness is only starting to surface now, kind of like a genetic disease whose complications and symptoms only develop in later life, when one reaches adulthood. All this time its been hibernating in my body. All of a sudden, an uncontrollable, overwhelming weirdness explodes from my all my cells.

I accept either one conclusion.

Mentalist

* Mentalist * Sunshine bursts through dull grey-hued clouds, its rays filtering down onto Kyle's face. He wrinkled his eyes in response, long tanned fingers shield them. He never liked such dreamy situations, the sun kissing the endless plains, glades of wildflower dot the country side. He thought that such scenarios only served to conceal what was bad inside everyone. Yes, he believed that there resided a little evil, a touch of cruelty, a hint of darkness within everyone. In fact, he relished acts, big or small, of twisted intentions. He always knew he was "strange" as put it by people who knew him. Unique, was what he rather be termed, perhaps bordering on "superior". Those comments didnt affect him, all they did was to consolidate the unrefutable fact that Kyle enjoyed in watching people suffer, writhe in pain, bathed in loneliness. You see, Kyle has a special gift. At first he thought that it was just strokes of coincidences, but soon the frequencies of th...

Feeling jealous and dumb.

This week hasnt been good, for my mental health at least. 1) Went out dinner with my BMT mates. Chatted and got to know how's everyone progressed so far two years on: A - Is on USP AL - Is going to UCLA to do Law S - Is going to Imperial to do Chemistry on a A*Star scholarship C - Is currently in Medical School J - Is on a bond free scholarship from Shanghai to do Chinese at Fudan U. D - Is going to do Medicine overseas So yes, I feel darn puny and small and dumb sitting with all of them. Choking me with all that smartness and effortless-ness. As well as talking about whether they should change their course to like Law or Medicine so that they can earn more money. I truly feel dumb. 2) Friend W, has unbelievably, signed on. Its a "she" by the way. Havent talked to her since after primary school. Stalked her on FB. haha. It gets pretty bored in office sometimes. She leads such a colourful life, visiting Egypt to see pyramids, going to Iceland to see the Northern Lights ...

New Semester

Hi, I'm back, after what seems like an eternity. Its a new start to the academic year! I am conflicted. I am not sure whether to look forward to finishing school (at last!) or to feel a sudden emptiness about school ending. (What? Already?) No doubt, school has been kind to me, it has let me learn many things, academically or otherwise. Its great seeing and experimenting with different styles of working with people, I think that's the part I like most about school. Other than that, school feels like a cocoon of warmth and protection, as though nothing really bad could possibly happen. I mean, its a huge playground for youths to connect and try out and experiment with identity, its where you really test out which identity you want to adopt when you finally step out into the world right? But at the same time, I'm really eager to step out and prove my worth, the saying " The world is your Oyster" is not for nothing you know. So I'm feeling increasingly ...
