They want to see us fall; They want to see us fall (Cheryl Cole, Parachute)

"Your death's like the sun: You can't look straight at it for longer than a second or two. The looming-up momentarily annihilates everything else, then lets it all back in." - Glen Duncan, The Bloodstone Papers.

It's terrible that I keep sleeping in the canteen every morning. But that extra 1 hour or so of sleep is very very satisfying, though it does rob me of the time to talk to friends or try to catch up on abit of tutorial or read my book. The early morning RJ canteen is pretty interesting though. There's a calm quietness about it amidst the bustle of the stallholders getting ready for the day. One or two Indian workers will play their music sometimes. And just watching sleepy bleary-eyed people walking through the canteen can fill up my time.

Event of the day:
Elizabeth, Tingfang and Michelle are walking up the stairs. Zewei is one flight of stairs below them. He calls Michelle. Three of them look down, laugh then runs off, because nobody wants to talk to him. A few hours later, Elizabeth and Michelle walk towards RJ and chit chats away. Suddenly they turn around, and like a ghost, Zewei was beside them.

WHO JUST TURNS UP BESIDE PEOPLE AND WALK THERE WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING. ==

Somehow, I always manage to fail Chemistry, and the feeling of being a failure somehow diminishes with each and every S grade I get.

This is not the way i want my story to end

So tired of the routine. When will there be some spark in this life. I've lost so much dynamism over the years. Waiting for all this to end. Go out and live your life. Those were the days my friend, we thought they'd never end; Then the busy years went rushing by us, we lost our starry notions on the way

Bulgaria's Abandoned Children.

Just finished watching this documentary. Reduced me to a pile of tears and a bundle of hatred for the soulless 'social workers'. I don't think I will ever understand how humans can be so callous. How could you see a child in pain, in complete need of care, of love and yet treat him/her as cattle, and walk away after manhandling them. It is not the lack of stimulation. It is the lack of love that has left the children in this state of despair. Didi still has so much hope to one day see her mom and love for someone who abandoned and condemned her to a life of misery. She says she's happy but always, the lingering shot shows that sadness in her eyes. She knows, her mom isn't coming back for her. But if one day her mom came, she would jump straight back into her arms. That's the problem with hope isn't it, that's the problem with humans. We want what hurts us. Hope is what kills us in the end.  Milen, the boy that never let his heart harden through all...
