Paper's screwed, thoughts're screwed and boomz, what do we do with all this?

Can either pick my life up now and attempt not to execute everything in perfection (because by then my life will be 4 times over) or continue to drawl my days away until I feel the pulse, the moment, where I know it's in me and "Hello, yes it's me, Mr. Perfect right here with the blue skin! Shucks, look at the way I do things, your jaw will be touching more than just the ground and your eyes will sparkle more than just glitter!"

First off, I should honestly sew myself a platy.
Then perhaps a part-time job in a few weeks' time.

Pfft, don't remind me of all those episodes piling up.
I've been lagging quite desperately behind fandom.

Followed by preparations to cosplay as Yuri Kamanosuke from Brave 10.
(I should prolly finish a few more episodes so as to get into character.)

Maybe learn a thing or two about the real world, cosplay world, literary world, online world and all the worlds made available to me (me me me).

And also to brighten 13th-Tsuki with a few light-hearted posts.
So I'm slow to realize, but I hardly blog when I'm in a good mood.

All the posts that may make myself smile, I prevent myself from creating them in the first place. (In hindsight, I've prevented opportunities from reaching out to me in the same ironic manner.)

It's easy to draw apathy after keeping at something over an arduous period of time, but the difference is whether I'll break through or give in to another onerous cycle. (Also to keep my ridiculous philosophy to myself.)

Smileeee, I need to smile more often.
A genuine smile; smacking tight and luscious.

I'm getting back on my own two feet, clap those hands for me.
As self-centered as I am, clap like the thunder and howl in glee.

The almighty is back in action.
(With an extra dosage of hubris.)

Tbh I don't even know where it came from.
Nothing uplifting has occurred.

Guess I'm just tired of being tired of myself, of the crap I spout and of being a whiny bastard incapable of doing more in the face of brilliancy. Fuck, I can cosplay and I can translate and I can even sew basic plushies to a decent extent. I can easily bring them to the next level if I train my inner warrior and wage war on beings or objects who dare defy.

I've done this before, and I'll do it again.
Bring it on you son of a bitch, I'll take you on.

And I'm sinking deeper than ever before.

I'm wading in dirt green, I'm breathing ash brown and thinking mad pink.
The world doesn't matter anymore, I don't matter anymore. They do.

Discrepancies and fallacies and lies, oh those sweet lies whispering, sweeping across my nape like edacious critters and there's no end in sight and my tongue rolls, and curls, and my teeth are right there and such a pity, they are not razor sharp.

My life is perfect atop perfect and I suppose I need to drill this through my thick, obstinate skull but oh, is it worth the trouble? Is anything worth the trouble? Am I worth the trouble? My hands say no, and my body lies lifeless and cling, clang.

My efforts are in vain (you spit no, they scream no, I shake no).
Words are truly my only saviour. A beat, two beats, four. Flitting.

It wouldn't hurt.
Liberation is around the corner.

I'll stare at my five walls and see nothing but my rectangular plethora of colors and type away and snort because I can't keep myself entertained till I've finished typing and then maybe, perhaps I'll have the courage to do something. Something silly like self-harming. But when the day arrives I'll do nothing at all and stare back in emptiness, because in the end it's a shell of things to be, never quite there. Pack of lies to convince, of inane emotions and something out of this world.

Not quite.

Let's laugh together at the merriment of fools.
Reaching out for hope, only to fall flat.

The most befitting moron.
Say hello, bide goodbye.

Laugh your days away.
I'll laugh myself away.

• 8:42 PM, Tuesday, February 21, 2012

My room is turning into a garbage dump.
My hair is growing by the minute.
My nape is feeling kinda ticklish.
My hands are slightly wrinkled (bathing at night, mm-hmm).
My toenails are freshly snipped!
My Luffy figurine fell off his perch.

If we place our misfortunes next to bigger ones, they gag on pink smokescreen and poof, gone like the wind, with the wind. Let's picture colossal misfortunes, and then I'll twirl and swirl my days away in bliss.

If I wasn't born with a certain trait in my core, I will not attempt to impersonate whatever it is because, thereisnopurposenotruthsodeceptiveandcunning. I'm hardly larger than life (and it torments me like burning porridge) and so many countless times, Iamrottingandthereisnopurposenotruthjustoblivion. It hurts. I'm alive.

Even if I'm useless and consume resources on this already wasted globe.
There are critters reaching out to me, there is love waiting for me.

So many countless times I've shot myself dead.
Me? *inserts incredulously raised eyebrows*

It is all the more banal and I'm living a lie, but I try not to think that way because it hurts to see my mom looking like I'm the only thing that matters and her heart has been torn and sewn together, all those stitches (maybe a million and two) and I smile, and I frown, and I call forth a tidal wave and plop, plop my lap feels kinda warm.

Conviction. Of inanity, futility, incompetency and so on and so forth and...

And?

And I do realise why I've never felt fulfilled despite whatever "achievements" I've racked up, and as much as critters want to believe, it's not because I'm reaching out towards bigger things. It's because I'm mostly an useless shell of a workable critter (I can study, I can translate, I can cosplay, I'm a jack of all trades) and I'll never excel in my calling in life (no one ever does with the ending line pushed far above the clouds) and I don't have the persistence.

I'm already tired of typing. I'm tired of using grand words and I'm tired of my queer-sounding grammar. I'd pin the blame on my country if it wasn't solely because I'm not putting in enough effort.

I can't even think up an intriguing storyline because I can't imagine what could be so interesting in life in my presence. The same, always the same routines, day in and out, the same words, the same actions, the same topics...or is life as such? The same everything for 24 hours, 365 days a year.

No, right? I trust myself on this.
It's just me, because I'm me. So dull.

I try to treasure the moments of hyperactivity because that's when I'm truly content for who I am.

Me? *inserts twitching lips*
Me of all people, so undeserving.

(But then I'm typing and my words are out in the open and they're jumping all about because they too are breathing; they breathe in carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen and we live on in this surreal manner and I'm planted in the present, neither the past nor future but Iamhererightnowandcanyouhearthelyrics?)

It is doubly difficult when I picture those colossal misfortunes and knowing they exist somewhere on the other side of this greenish-blueish planet, or maybe 10 meters away from me, and "Live on, breathe in!" for them, think of them, convince yourself your actions will take a toll in their futures when your lives don't intertwine and you know it but...

But nothing.
I don't know.

The guilt is tripled, I wonder why I'm sitting here at all, my back starts to ache and I think of quaint French girls and their blonde curls and pale lips and oh, how adorable they must be.

"I'm insane!"
"No you're not."
"I'm turning insane!"
"No, you are not."
"Pants on fire."
"I'm not a liar. Your sentence is testament to your sanity."
"Oh."
"Moron."
*cheshiregrin*

PanicanxietywhereisNarutoandSasukeandtotellthetruthunicornsareoverrated.

I need to sew myself a platypus soon.

Next time I holler "Raining platypus!" I'll hold my platy up high and zoom, zoom flying around the room like a royal aeroplane and shitting waterbombs on the bedroom floor and my papers and textbooks are drenched orange and maybe things will start to make sense again.

• 11:47 AM, Sunday, February 19, 2012

I should take better control of my life.

Nowadays, I've been consumed and influenced much too easily.
Any little trigger can overturn my personal opinions and perspectives.

Need to stick my foot a little deeper, drenched muddy brown, the sweet scent of earth.

My opinions matter, my thoughts matter, I don't just nod and ride the flow.
If I think twentieth is the bloody examination date, then damn, the fuck it is.

It wouldn't hurt to have someone pushing my back, but what am I to do until or if I meet someone willing to step into my life?

All the time wasted.
I need to break away.

Confidence is as elusive as ever and I'm throbbing painfully in its absence, but I'll whisk it away from wonderland and I'll fall in love with myself in order to fall in love with the world and all will be unicorns and stags and roasted marshmallows on a pocky stick.

At least, that's how I imagine it'll go.

• 10:29 PM, Friday, February 17, 2012

I fucking wish I could pull my soul out from my shell and observe the way I am.

Narcissistic to the moon and I know I sound like an immature brat but the expletives want out from my system. It's just going "fuck, damn, shit, jesus fucking christ" and so on. I don't know why. It's not like I'm pissed off. Like a machine gun that won't cease.

Self-conscious, way overboard, jittery-and-all-over-the-place self-conscious, and I can't fucking rid it. Do I pour acid all over myself? That'll merely disfigure the shell. The soul's untouched.

I'm even painfully aware I'm self-conscious to the point that it's blinding me from how I really am, how the surrounding views me, how I'm supposed to be here in this mass of convoluted space. That I care too much about appearances and opinions and images and perspectives and being overly-concerned is starting to wear me and every fucking one down, but what the fuck fuck fuck I can't drag myself out of this shit and all I know is to come here and type, hopefully until my fingers melt and I'm nothing but a hodgepodge of liquid substances.

I put myself in circles and chase my tail knowing there's no end in sight; I insist I know know know because I'm the only narrator there is and no one is by my side telling me I'm doing okay or not okay or being the fucking queer I am and I don't know. Oh my god, I don't know. I can explode and I don't know; do you know?

I think I lied about being a schizoid.
Back then it was true. I felt nothing.

Right now is something entirely different.
So I lied. Hit me, I lied to the universe.

I fear so many many many many many things and I feel like I'm repeating myself all over again with the same words and the same drama and the same me and the same words (Did I type that, already? No I didn't, I fucking didn't.) and the same everything. I don't have the talent to survive. You grip me by the edges and I slip away because I'm liquid.

My heart is racing ba-dump ba-dump and I'm literally gasping for short breaths and I don't know what is what the tears are forming by the nanosecond and this is such melodrama I feel like sneering at myself.

Why must I be everything that I hate?
Why must I be so fucking fickle?

Why do I do everything on a whim, why can't I keep at it, why can't the motivation stay, why can't I like myself to feel liked by others, why can't I appreciate goddamn why must I complain complain complain like the next fool in line.

Why am I shuddering like a moron fuck it.
Why am I so talentless...

Edit:

I came back to add more.
This is, say, after 15 minutes?

I still want to drag myself out.
I'm two existences in itself.

It's exasperating and I suspect I've watched too many dramas, read too many stories, that I'm used to the narrator's viewpoint, to knowing everything down to the last insignificant detail, so in whichever direction I take, I expect I know what I'm getting myself into. And I know the outcome.

I know everything precisely because I know everything.
This is who he is, this is who she is, this is who it is.

This is what this is, this is what that is and this is what any and everything is.
Mumbling that to myself soothed my nerves. They were frenzied like hell.

But you don't predict your own life story because you don't control everything. But I'm the narrator and I foresee everything. It's not making sense. My logic is laughing at me.

So sometimes when I take this course of action or I take that course of action, a voice pipes up and takes over my imagination and creates an image of what people thinks of me when I don't know any fucking thing at all and I assume that's the world wide truth. And I know, voila I know.

I personally find the way I conform to my own needs to be disgusting.
I've seen the way people react and yes, I was and am a bastard.

I tried to change (trying is never good enough you dimwit), I bash myself to make myself feel good because then people will know I'm not that egoistic when in fact it shoots up to the heavens, I'm a lie built upon a lie when my dream is to execute a massacre on the abode of lies and I'm so simple and complicated and fearsome and cowardly and one fucking gorgeous mess that no one bothers to step in my goo.

It's too troublesome.
No one likes trouble.

I don't like trouble.

Tell me to help you out and I'll procrastinate and pretend I'm not procrastinating because it's not in my best interests to help you (and you don't seem appreciative and I'm not that compassive) and then I hate myself for acting like this, like I care when I don't really and I'm pretending in another day in another world in another me in another grand farce.

I could have been proud that I wasn't someone who covers her flaws.
I'm fucking proud of them, look! I'm ruthless and I show it.

If I don't care, I don't care.
But then the pretense pops up and I don't know anymore.

I don't understand my vanity, I don't understand my need to be accepted, I don't understand and I want to feel that cool mental by my temple because I'm burning up and the flames are biting through my skin, getting to my bones and ash and obsidian and oblivion!

And and and

And people will stop feeling bothered by my shit, by my presence, by my falsity and I won't need to feel guilty that I'm bothering anybody because I'm no longer here.

Two existences.

One is me. The other is telling me what is and what could be and what will be and what have been. In dramas they often depict that pathetic creature who could never put words into audible tones because "words aren't that easily spoken". Guess what; I can shout "I'm a fucking queer!" across my block half an hour before midnight but I don't because I'm scared and that is not me and I'm just acting like I'm capable of everything because I want to break out of stereotypes.

I read through my entry and I can tell I'm frightened.
I'm neither dumb nor am I clueless. I can tell that much.

But don't you think it's pathetic for the person herself to state "I'm scared" even if he or she does realise it? It's like screaming "I'm weak and I'm exposing my flaws and look, hello, turn your fucking heads and stare at me for all I'm worth I'm here right now breathing in your air in your faces!"

But if I don't, it's like I'm ignorant of that fact.

Every time I start feeling good about myself, I'm disgusted again.
Why the fuck are you so vain, thinking you've got talent?

Sometimes I'm smug because my words came out the way I like them.
The next day I want to write them down on solid paper and tear them to shreds.

Some days I don't care anymore and the next few days I thump on my chest and roar like fucking Tarzan because I've left everything to their own devices and there're too much to be done.

I can never be as constant as Naru because he isn't hereeeeeeeeeee fuck fuck fuck he isn't here and he's just a figment of a talented individual's imagination. Whom I worship, I worship the ground he walks on, he gave me a quarter of my life.

Wrong I'm jesus fucking christ wrong from head to toe.

And then everyone is telling me how lucky I am because I've got the family, the environment, the grades, the everything; hey there, yes I'm beaming, I should be over the moon given my circumstances because there should be nothing to gripe about but here I am, griping about things you do or don't understand and you want to lash out because I'm not appreciative.

You know what, I really wouldn't mind if you pulled that cool metal out from behind your back because I can't quite do it myself. I'd regret and hesistate and all that shit before the trigger gets pulled, but I can't do that if the hand belongs to you, now can I?

I don't know why I think and why I'm proud of thinking like I do when it causes all these... I don't know. All these.

Then there're people thinking I've got it all.
Did I type about that already?

Then there're people. Thinking I've got. It. All.
I happen to think I've got it all, too.

(I've got all these disorders too, you want some of them?)

Even if I'm talentless, humans can do anything if they want to and I'm no exception.
Talentless humans have made a name for themselves on this green planet. Proof enough.

But I hate my frightened self who thinks everything is impossible without someone telling me I'm on the right track. It's like you know the examination date is on the twentieth but when you get to the eerily empty location, you begin to doubt and then convince yourself that you must had mistaken the date before you realise it's because you're merely too early.

And I want to tell anyone who's listening, strangers or aliens, that all I want is a pat on my shoulder. I want to go out one day and stand in the midst of the morning crowd and like a fucking fairy tale a man or woman or girl or guy or animal will sense the queer spilling from my back and somehow reckons "This poor creature needs a pat," and do just that.

Who the fuck am I kidding.

No one does that not because they don't sympathise with me, but because they're afraid as well and more importantly, they don't even know me or my life story. I know that, gasp, how many times have I said that?

I'm jealous, I'm so jealous of people who are genuinely happy and don't gripe about every little thing in life because they have a broad perspective and they've pulled all the veneration from my worthless soul and I want to puke rainbows and smile sunshine upon their presences. I like them so much, but they're so far from reach. And that goes for both the literal and figurative sense.

Right now the 2 years seem excruciating again.
I have to fly overseas to inch closer to my veneration.

There's only one who's right by my side.
And that's my mom. That's right, my mom.

I'm not trying hard enough, not yet, but I can't bring myself to care nowadays when my mom spits all these triggering words and I want to rage and overturn all the desks and smash all the glassware in the house and it's over because it's been carried out in my head.

It's all right (actually it's never all right) if friends spit those because, yeah, who cares if you're stick thin because it's only an insult to call overweight people the 'f' word and underweight people should be proud that they're the way they are? So we're entitled to comments like "You look sickly thin, can you just shove a burger down your throat? You don't look good at all."

Looks, looks, looks

I'm positive there are naturally thin people who don't suffer from eating disorders of any kind and they get insults like these all the time. Maybe 0.1% of them are secretly proud, but what about the rest of the 99.9%? Who cares, right? Who cares.

And then those who do suffer from eating disorders will matter dirt shit.
"Oh, look at my 'f' thighs, I'll never look as good as you. How much do you weigh?"

This coming from a girl with perfectly normal weight.

I hold great empathy for those who are underweight or overweight.
We undergo different trials, but they're trials all the same.

We're judged, we're insulted, though sometimes the underweight receives the worse end of the stick because the overweight thinks we're looking down on them. No, we aren't. We fucking aren't. We think you're amazing, but you'll never believe us.

Yes, add this to everything I've got.
I've got the thin-till-my-bones-protude figure.

Jealous? Huh, are you jealous?
I'll fucking give it to you, just take it.

I've never wanted to type about this because it's plain crude to the overweight and I'm frightened I'll be taken the wrong way because this is aimed at the normal weight and insensitive jerks alone, but I'm at the end of my tether. I'm at the fucking end, you want to break me apart like a nut?

Oh, I'm griping about nothing, I should simply eat more!
Now be a good kid and go educate yourself on anorexia.

Oh hang on, maybe you still won't get it because I'm suffering from the abyssal effects; not just the superficial scratches on the surface.

I don't care anymore, I'll expose myself for all I'm worth.

Who says you have to know a person to his or her core before you pull the skeletons from your closet? I'll never have the chance to do that, so I'll do this now.

I've been typing for an hour and it's not enough.
Tears have dropped and dried and dropped and dried.

Every few weeks I'll have this spurt of inspiration and after it dies down, a growing piece of something is ripped from my depths.

I am much closer to insanity than ever before.
I'm frightening and I'm frightened.

Those who want to help, those who don't know how to help, those who never voice their concern; I'll never come to know any of them.

Oh gosh, I'm tired.
I'm tired.

I'm going to sleep.
I'm going to bawl myself to sleep.

I'll be fine when I wake up.
This is all insanity in the night.

• 5:43 PM,

Good lord, I've opened my eyes.

What good does it do to hap on useless issues when I can type about so much more? My words can be put to better use, surely. They're waiting to be refined; dulled by my lack of foresight and understanding of what should and should not be carried out.

Holy shit I can't wait for these 2 years to be up.
I'm flying away, goddamn, away from everything.

I'll live with renewed vigour in an unknown place, an unpredictable future, and I'll break away, fly away, soar into the clouds and land with a plop and chew on those tufts of cotton candy.

I'll do it, I'm doing it, I'll be doing it.
Heeheehee. I'm laughing, oh god I'm laughing.

• 12:05 PM, Thursday, February 16, 2012

Change.

I was, am capable of change.
And I'm changing. Will still change.

For better or for worse, I'm changing.
I'd slap myself across the face for emphasis.

After one helluva roller coaster ride, what I've thought to be impossible is sitting in the palm of my puny hand.

I think I'll cry.
I think I'm crying.

I told them. I spilled some of my messy beans.
We just sat there and talked about anything and everything.

Them.

Whom I've instinctively slapped an obnoxious label on in the past. It reads "simple critters". I now realise no one is simple; not even that ant scurrying across my desk. (And it has an objective in life to boot.)

Half the time I grumble, I expect nothing life-changing to ever occur.
Like that narrator with the monotonous tone, a presageful presence.

But it's happening and somehow it's not real, because my life has never felt real.
The fact that it's happening to me, on me, for me makes me want to scream expletives like a budding banshee.

Really?
A critter like me?

So unworthy and vile and still you allowed this act of altruism?
And I know you're not asking for anything in return.

Would you yawn in apathy if I prostrate before you? Probably; it means nothing to you after all. Means nothing to me after all.

Oh dear, everything's changing.
A little giddy but otherwise dandy.

I'll be off to get more work done today.
Revolution in the masses, oh yeah

• 9:39 PM, Tuesday, February 14, 2012

7 I was up, finished up my revision for C Maths, sneezed my way through lunch, spot translated a HNA episode and painted and painted and painted my props with glue and acrylic.

It's 9 now.

My nose is still dripping like a broken water tap.
It feels like 3 days have passed since I woke up.



Not too sure if I posted this before, but here you go.
One of my many dreams, my happy pill, my burnt butterfly.

This queer swirl of emotions.
(It's itching, it's not sneezing.)

I will cry if you will it.
I will beg if you wish so.

Because (I think I broke an iron rule; sorry English) I want to experience this before I angst in my little corner and die of isolation.

Yeah, it's not something you should "desire", right?
Because (iron rule to flippant rule) friends come naturally.

Moreso true friends.

If you're at the point where you're "aching badly" for it, there's something fundamentally wrong with you. You your yours yourself. The more you "desire", the further they drift. If they exist at all.

This "general goofing around, messy feelings thrown about, laughter and tears".
Memories upon memories and moments and instances to feel countless emotions over.

I no have them.

I didn't procrastinate today.
Did I feel as good as I should be?

No, I felt worse.

There's no one to share anything with.
That is not to say I've given up.

One cloudy day in my 20's, 40's, 80's.
I used to believe I had no reason.

Life is meaningless. You aren't given a goal.
You're just born to live, and living we all are.

Even I was born, just to live.
I have the rights to be myself.

It's sad, but I have every right.

Even if I am to bring fortune or misfortune, mirth or pathos, envy or contentment upon others, I still possess the atoms, the cells, the nerves, the muscles, the bones that form me.

Now I have a reason.

Another journey, a hidden mission and a reckless venture to recover what is rightfully mine.

• 5:46 PM, Monday, February 13, 2012

If anything, I miss writing.

Writing in its indubitable form, of paper and ink and smudges and crinkles.
It's not like I'm digging through the haystack for that needle to attest.

It's great; I've got the grades, the aptitude, the curiosity.

One-in-all package, except it's not the course I've been pining for, but that matters little because success is right smack in my face! Isn't it? That's what everyone says. Out of envy, out of joy, out of whatever.

There hasn't been a single soul who've told me I've chosen the wrong path on life, because those who cares about my future knows better than to give me the go-ahead to immerse myself in journalism. That this is The World, that you don't always get the things you want, that there are music prodigies who've gone against their talents because it's not what they love and "Look where they ended up!" (Catch those gazes thrown by critters with more than just passion for music. I'd be an exalted artist if I had the ability to paint those raw, wrenching emotions.)

But I digress. Oh, I always digress. Bad brain.

I've grown accustomed to my choices (I'm still here in this school, in this course, in this room, in this world) and I'm learning not to nitpick at every little matter. This, however, I can't let up.

I've been revising for C Maths like I said I would and, do you know, it gave me such an inexplicable thrill just because my hand was moving and the ink was spilling from the tip of the pen and fine lines were meeting here and there and I could recognise numbers, formulas, equations, logic and-

And my handwriting.
Like soul mates

The curls and slants and alphabets and symbols and the book was open and it was daring me to look away. It was fucking daring me to look away and I think my heart broke, not because I looked away but because I couldn't and whoosh! It licked up all that pride like a vacuum, oozing from my pores.

Of all the things I've loathed about myself.

My handwriting is the only, precious creature I can't bring myself to abominate.

Not my words, but my handwriting.
Of all things. Of all godforsaken things.

In this course where writing matters shit.
You'll break my heart if you didn't already.

• 7:57 PM, Sunday, February 12, 2012

Worthless.

I'm a worthless, vile creature.
Come and take me away.

Edit: Vile as I am, the week's not gonna let up on me.

Revision, prop-making, skit-planning, spot translating.
Even if I want to stop, the current's still gushing.

Let's tackle this half by half, two by two.

I'm not watching the rest of Strawberry Night #5 until I'm done with C Maths.
P/S: My gourd's not as lopsided as I thought it was. Biased judgement is biased.

• 11:50 PM, Saturday, February 11, 2012

The sooner I move away from everything familiar, the better it'll be for everyone.

My mom doesn't have to put up with shit from me without knowing why.
She returns home afer a gruelling day of work. She greets me mirthfully.

I stare at my screen and nod and remain muted as a bazillion thoughts fry the pink mass of muscles located in my skull.

Lamenting and pouring over my woes; sometimes they seem justified.
When I read them a second time, I think: What is this bullshit?

What am I typing for?

Most of the time, reading my words hold the wondrous effect of jolting me awake, like pulling realizations from my subconscious that flow from my fingertips to the keyboard.

I type this crap so easily. Words are so easy when left unspoken.
Then it's another day in another mindset and I'm muted again.

I never give the long, undue hug, I never smile genuinely from my heart, and while I tend to force myself to appreciate the colossal to the diminutive, I seem to have neglected the crux that holds it all.

Why do I take my mom for granted?
Why am I so conflicted? Why am I me?

Why, why, why

Why can't I smile and accept everything I have?

I sincerely believe, if I'm thrown into another universe with neither familiar brethrens or environment in sight, I'll be forced into another persona that'll be a tad closer to my true self than what I have at present.

I'll ravage it like a madman.
I'll grow to be independent.

I'll learn about the world as it is and laugh and cry and rage and sneer and envy. I'll experience, take in everything, morph into so many forms, and come senectitude I'll glow with life so vibrant.

But for now I'm nothing.
Lesser than a speck of dust.

I've yet to achieve anything.

Scoring a 4.0 GPA, enrolling into an unparalleled university, cinching an esteemed career; I'm appreciative I was born into the right environment to achieve all these, but they're not achievements per se.

They are merely predefined steps in life with the adventure sucked dry from their skins.

Happiness differs from critter to critter.
For this critter in question, it's improvement.

To be honest, it doesn't matter where the starting line's located.
I'll just dash and sprint and run like an Arashi concert ticket is in front of me.

With every step I take, the further the finishing line gets.
The formula's a magnificent, glorious ball of fire.

I'll never step across that untainted white of a finishing line.
I'll also never find any greater joy than this.

As long as you let me run and run and run, because that's what I'm here for.

I've so many things to learn; it's daunting and exhilarating.
There's absolutely no time to stop and stand still to admire.

All the young 'uns said, "We're too young to die."

Yeah, and I'm a fool of the absolute kind.

Of course being unproportionately gifted in a certain area has nothing to do with my eating disorder, of course breaking out in testaments of youth has everything to do with myself. Oh certainly, I wished these deformities upon my very vessel!

Yes sir, you're right without a doubt.

That is exactly why I should not pursue my interests in this lifetime and let people's opinions fuck me over. This is also why I should sink into silent submission and abandon my search for Pandora's box.

It wouldn't hurt this much if you're nothing but a critter.
But no, you're a person in my eye because you're my brother.

And you went ahead and spouted such colourful killer whales.

I thought I knew you better than this, that you aren't as shallow as those critters. Thanks for proving me wrong. Thanks for the indirect relay; I hear "Looks are all that matters!" loud and clear.

Thanks for telling me to mighty well give up because I'm imperfect.

Cosplayers are expected to maintain a level of professionalism, and by that I assume it refers to following the character design, traits, personality and mannerisms as well as getting every detail, insignificant or otherwise, of the costume down to a tee.

If the cosplayer's blessed with the good fortune of a face or body that complements his or her desired character, great! Congratulations to them who make up 20% of the entire cosplay community. The remaining 80% can kindly rot in hell and make the fucking way for the dukes and duchesses.

I've never believed in that good-cosplays-are-when-the-cosplayers-seem-to-be-carbon-copies-of-the-characters-themselves crap. You can say I'm biased because I'm part of the 80% (the bottom of the bottom, too). Having experienced the trials, I only feel an enormous surge of respect for cosplayers so talented; the mannerisms, costumes, all down to the button; except their faces or bodies that don't quite fit the bill of the character in question.

In retrospect, a zombie apocalypse is destined in the near future if cosplayers ever manage to impersonate a character down to their DNA. You should slap some wide, star-embedded overdone eyes onto the cosplayer to make for an immaculate transition from fictional to non-fictional. Let people scream bloody murder once they realise how frightening it is for breathing humans to don such glittery eyes that only serves to propel the fallacy of extraterrestrials on Earth.

Your opinion still matters to me.
But I think you're no longer a person.

You're just another critter, another form of being.
I've taken your opinion into account; I'm processing it.

I'm still going to cosplay Fio from Metal Slug.
Yes, I'm going to "royally fuck her character image".

I hope you're mad.

I can smell the change in the air, damn if it ain't mouth-watering.
(I'm in love with comma splices too, I only just discovered them today.)

Hello world!

I'm tucked away in the comforting confines of my room once again.
I've also turned tail on all my appointments like the Kyasha I am.

I need to pry my eyes open with toothpicks to boot, darn lids are heavy as lead.

Progress. Yes, I made some of this pesky critter.
Been consciously monitoring myself the entire day.

Didn't add emoticons where they were usually due, didn't bother conforming to others and generally, gave my best rat-ass attempt to reel in any panicky urges of keeping up with my sickening lie of a public image. I don't think it worked very well, but you don't get to object because progress is progress.

Sounds odd to require the need to "consciously monitor myself" if I've been pretending all along, since that's where you have to be conscious of your natural responses and rebuke them with an utter subterfuge, but I've grown accustomed to keeping my thoughts to myself.

Got a personal opinion?
Got some pet peeves?
Got issues sticking up your ass?
Got a debate wrecking havoc at 900 miles per hour?
Got an idea so brilliant it'll rain platypus?

Keep them all to myself, that's right, let me self-destruct in peace.
I won't give you the chance to make my idea rain delusional hippopotamuses.

Drifting along with the flow seems to be all I'm capable of.
Plop me on a comfy seat, prop my legs up and I'm good to go.

Oh, let's not forget the all-important technological device that has either made my life as sparkly as spangles or just flipped it inside out (where all the glitter is gone and all you see are ugly, hideous threads looping through the hidden spangles).

Let me at it, let me type away into oblivion you foul beasts.
Let my thoughts and ideas and opinions assault your every fibre.

Let it squeeze you dry before dumping you on the deserted streets, wheezing and gasping.

Edit: I wrote this post halfway, watched the epic double episode of Naruto Shippuuden and I'm filled with gummy bears and late mornings and all the good things in life. Review for this episode will definitely be up after my test tomorrow.

For now I'll throw myself on my bed and pour my thoughts over this glorious episode which, admittedly, teared me up. No, no onions, just Yondaime and Kushina and the water in my system.

"Grow up and quit your whining."

I'm still waiting for someone to spit that in my face.
Anyone, really, to tell me I'm being a bastard.

But I don't cease my footfalls, I walk on and mind my own business in that bastardly manner. I want people to care, but when they show concern, I shove them away and they end up with grazed knees and I give them a condescending stare.

I don't know why I'm doing this to myself. I simply don't.

Every post winds up a sob story because whenever I think too hard, too long, which is 99.9% of the time, the thought goes nowhere near optimism. If people are whispering, they're pointing fingers behind my back! If people don't talk to me, it's because I pissed them off. If people talk to me, they merely want an outlet for their sympathy to reside. You see? I'm the epitome of wrong.

Many a times I've this surge of motivation and positive mindset and I embark on another journey to see if I'll reach the end, but I never do because I die halfway in the desert without a cactus in sight. And my camel has long abandoned me.

I want to try, but "want" is never enough for anything.
I whine and throw my weight about just because.

I'm sick of people who're never confident because they can't see themselves for who they are. I'm pretty sick of myself too, because confidence is so charming and alluring and draws me like a moth to the flames. I want to be burnt to a crisp, it's so tantalizing you don't even know.

And my sentences start with "I, my, me, mine".
I'm so self-absorbed in me, my image, my everything.

It's what drives people away, even those who'd wanted to help.

I know, I know I know I know because I'm cocky like that, but can I do a thing when my first reaction to every conversation is to appease the person and fix a sickening, unauthentic image of me to his or her mind? I can, holy shit I can do just about everything! But I don't because it seems worthless. What I've always desired seems worthless because there's no one telling me "It's the right thing, you're on the right track, you're on your merry way to normalcy."

I'm the type of person you'd hate because all I do is complain, whine, bitch about life like the world owns me despite leading a relatively peaceful life, and that fuels your hatred even more because apparently I'm conscious of this fact and I'm blabbering "I can do something, but I chose not to."

Yes, just hate me.
I hate myself too.

I hate myself so much. I hate my incapacity to change when everyone is capable of change. I hate that I've defined myself to have an incapacity to change. I hate that it's much relaxing to hate than to learn to love. I hate that nobody knows me because of the pretense I chose to put up. I hate that this is a result of my actions. I hate that I'm whining again, I hate that I broke my promise not to hate myself.

And I hate that it's so easy to hate myself.

I'm a nice bundle of hatred, would you care to bury me in Pandora's box?
If one day I choose to let up my pretense and relax around people, what'll happen?

I don't smile that much, I don't laugh that much, I don't even want to talk about trite matters like "There's too much homework." I do go crazy when something truly excites me, like a new Naruto merchandise, not "Oh you're tickling me, I'll tickle you back, haha I'm having so much fun!"

I like watching people playing like that.
And I do play like that, too.

But only when it's genuine is it fun.
Otherwise, my jaw hurts from laughing.

I don't like people like myself who're always trying to prove themselves to the world, like it'll mean anything when we'll all come to our end eventually. I also don't like people who don't like themselves. This can go on forever.

But basically, I'm a human with a lot of flaws.
I'm still struggling to change. I still struggle.

My wish is to talk to someone without smiling when I don't mean it.
I don't know when to speak up, I don't know when to keep quiet.

I don't know how to respect myself so that people will find it bearable to be within my radius. All the bull crap about my pride, where's it gone now.

But you know, these few days I've been making progress.
I feel perkier for extended periods, I feel stronger.

For once there are moments where I feel like I'm not burdening anyone, that we all enjoy each other's presences and we're getting along with life.

I know this is the first step.
Loving yourself is just the start.

And from there everything will blossom like roses with thorns and, I guess anything's better than this hellhole. It's like a race to keep the chain combination, because liking myself leads to not burdening others, knowing I'm not a pain in the ass to be around with, prompting me to drop a little more of my pretense with each passing day and goddamn stop stuttering like a moron and lay my thoughts on the table.

I realise not everyone is without flaws, and in fact it'll be strange not to have flaws. And sometimes it's because of those flaws that we find love and joy in living. And now I'm sounding like a philosophist again.

Some days I do want to sound high and mighty, but today these are rambles in their lucid form. I don't know why I have to talk about life, the world and humans in every post. I don't interact enough, I thought I knew that already.

Now, just let me deviate to another topic. Different as night and day.

Every time I embark on something new, or even when I'm blogging like this, this little worm will crawl through my veins and holler to my nerves, sending signals to my brain to tell me "Stop stop stop you fool, there's no meaning, there's never been." I feel lazy all of a sudden, I want to drop everything and stone in my office chair and rot behind my screen.

Motivation comes and goes just as easily like it's never been attached to me. It's saddening, really.

But ever since I worked (like a mad scientist) on my Java project since Sunday afternoon till this morning (excuse the washroom and meal breaks), it came to me that I could have flicked that worm out the window if I chose to. In this case, I had to because I've this paralyzing fear of deadlines.

If I push through that one instance of going against my every nerve, typing when I don't feel like it, prying my eyes open with toothpicks if I have to (though I'm not saying forgoing sleep is commendable), and if I keep at it for days and days and days, who's to say results won't materialize?

It's not even "Would you mind trying?" because I've nothing to lose. I'm already rotting, been rotting since 2009 without an actual goal to drift towards. I'm experimenting, anything's worth a shot. I like myself now when I hated myself 15 minutes ago.

Words, magical little critters.

13th Tsuki, you've got to stick with me.
And you'd better be proud of my progress.

I'll be making progress and you'll be watching me.
Open with eyes so wide, ears so attentive, don't miss it.

And, thank you.

I love Naru, I love Bear, and I also love you.
You took my thrashing and you couldn't complain.

I love you for that. I'm sorry I'm a sadist, but I love you for that.
Stay well, I'll be back. For better or for worse, I'll be back.

An affinity with procrastination.

It's definitely embedded in my system, considering I've less than 24 hours to my distinction presentation and I'm here again while the code and video and softcopies aren't quite ready to be handed in.

My hands are itching to type, despite going at it since morning.
Like I'm immersed in two worlds, two universal languages.

How beautiful.

for (int i = 0; i < theEnd.length; i++){
System.out.println ("You can flop on your bed like a dead fish in " + theEnd[i] + " hour(s) time.");
}



When you interact with a live human, be it prattling about yesterday's TV programs or sniggering behind a teacher's back, does it always hit you with an "Omph!" when you realise how different said human is when morphed into words?

I've always marveled at this oddity, lodged so deep beneath the guise of normalcy.

It could be two entirely different beings at work, and you wouldn't know, but you just do because that's how It rolls. This logic you can never defy. Then, you think back. "This critter was babbling away about any and everything a few hours ago, and now on Twitter It's like some philosophical hermit..."

That crippling difference is supposed to rip off, or at least topple, your hold on reality, but for some unknown reason, it could be invisible for all I know. So the logic in this world is defined: a being has two sides, one for the unbearable humans and another for the anonymous community (Caption: Where you go berserk or give your inner sage some credit, it could be either option and nobody'll even know. "Difference? What difference?")

It's weird, it's plain weird, it's freaking me out because I don't know what to expect with the next human I meet unless I interact with the critter on the World Wide Web, which, I think, is a warning sign.

In my head it's pictured like this:

*Real verse*
A: Morning! So how did it go?
B: Oh my gosh, it was the best.
A: Tell me something I don't know, I've seen all those pictures on Facebook.
B: Okay, so like, we met up and he was beating about the bush. Like you know something's up already.
A: Did you go for it? Did you?!
B: *Huff* I pretended to fall for his trap, and...
A: And?!
B: He confessed! I accepted!
A: You're a total riot, oh my goodness, congratulations! *Hug, squeal, giggle*

*Twitter verse, 3 weeks later*
BabyGurl123: I believed in you, believed in us. But you took my trust for granted and now it's gone forever.

I don't know, I don't know, how can a critter sound like two completely different humans? Two minds, one body. It's almost as if BabyGurl123's the reality while B's nothing but an "off-screen" persona, if that even makes sense.

For this alone I'd like to hold faith in communication other than face-to-face.
Let's not over-emphasize on technology and slip back in time. Letters, anyone?

(I was talking- ranting to my dad yesterday.

"I wish I was born in a different era. The era before this.
I'd have smiled wider, laughed harder, and enjoyed life as it is.")

You can literally dump my phone by the shores of Singapore, let it get washed away to Malaysia. I'd only apologize to my mom for wasting what little fee it'd taken to sign up for a contract and tell her to hold off on buying another because I'd like to indulge in freedom while it lasts. A breathing space.

Nobody can contact you by tapping on an immaculate screen.

There's a thrill lurking in the shadows, and if I wished hard enough, my phone would be "misplaced" or "faulty" by now. I didn't wish hard enough, because I respect the developers of Samsung Galaxy S and my mom for taking the time and effort to buy me a phone. I can abhor its functions, but I should never commit such an atrocity to innocent parties.

And, back to the topic.

This prompts me along the lines of "Is everyone pretending unconsciously?"
I'm pretending consciously, so I already know how much I differ.

Do the others know? Do they take the time to ponder, to stumble upon the realization that they're not who they portray themselves to be?

It seems to me that no one does.
But that's only my POV.

I have only one mind, mine and mine alone.
If I chose not to blog, nobody'll know the real me either.

But sometimes I'll stumble across heartfelt confessions.
You just know it's not a silent cry for attention.

It's a genuine confession so undiluted, I could only stare and stare and stare.
It's like the critter himself doesn't know how he portrays himself to others.

I guess in normal cases, that's how it goes.
Nobody really knows what others think of them.

But that doesn't wrap around my brain because, I know perfectly well how I come across to others because my pretense is there, intentional or otherwise.

He was confused, I wanted nothing but to reply @[insert critter's username], if you act the way you are on Twitter, that many more people will fall in love with you. Guys and girls alike.

I can't comprehend "love" for living humans, only humans in my fantasy who're by my side 24/7, but I can "like". I like a lot of breathing humans, and I admire a bunch of them.

I like this critter. I like his unpretentious ways.
But I'm too frightened of real interactions, or his reactions.

So I remain silent while willing some hidden force to deliver this message.
In a million light years, perhaps. But in two years, it will reach.

(Look at my sentence. So contradictory, so silly.)

Because after graduation I'll be out of here for good and I won't be so frightened of people's opinions and he'll know he's good for all he's worth. That I'd like to be his friend, a true friend, and didn't mean to act the way I did towards him. That it was only a facade I had to keep up, and "I'm sorry, so fucking sorry because I didn't know if I had what it takes to be a 'friend'."

This critter once confessed his smiles are his pretense.

I didn't have the heart, or guts, to tell him that his smiles were what made me feel I'm still here, walking and breathing and studying in reality, not in a surreal universe filled with incessant chatter and irrelevant critters in the background. I couldn't tell him, because in actuality this is what people terms as "creepy" or "having a crush" and a misunderstanding is the last thing I want him to have, although I'm already misunderstood about the very basis of my being.

He may be flashing his smiles at everyone, indiscriminately, because it's a pretense and a natural instinct, but I'm still grateful I'm on the receiving end of the smiles because someone actually bothers to smile at me, and means it. And it's not the smile critters force on their faces to be polite or fit into the social norms. Maybe it's not genuine either, but it's real.

I think I'm the only one who'll understand my contradictions.
They make such perfect sense, there's no other way to explain.

...today I feel a tad happier.
I've gotten a huge load off my shoulders.

Distinction presentation, I'm gonna ace you!

• 7:43 PM, Saturday, February 4, 2012

Again, not the time to be blogging, but I've got to type this out.

For my previous project module, I had one expletive-loving pragmatist, one awkward, yet sinfully talented adolescent and two sleeping members who're bosom friends on my team. I took matters in my stride, broke down when it was far too much to handle and came to realize I didn't give two hoots anymore.

Procrastinating till the eleventh hour and missing the day of the presentation itself (you could have mistaken me for a man by the baritone of my voice, though I swear my sore throat wasn't intentional), it was one hot mess.

But hey, responsibility wasn't heavy on my guts because I'd done all I convinced myself I could.

This is precisely why, on my second project module, I've learnt a life lesson.
Procrastination's all fine and dandy if only your team isn't willing to chip in.

My team at present, however, is a 180 degree change of fresh air.
Everyone's working hard, everyone's aiming for the summit, everyone.

I'd allowed myself to procrastinate till the final week, I'm doing all I can to catch up now, though I know it's too late because I won't be able to implement the functions I've in mind because time is unrelenting. This, truly, is my fault.

The surge of motivation they've given me is nothing short of wondrous miracles.

They've gone to the point of meeting up, both days before our presentation. (Actually, I'm pretty sure that's what we should all do, but I've never come across equally hardworking members on my team before, so it's relieving to know we all care about our work.)

Catch is, I don't want to go out.

My office chair and my lighted screen and my music blaring by my side provides the ultimate workspace. I can't work efficiently when I'm self-conscious and crawling on tiptoes around everyone, even though meeting each other in person to discuss is the ideal human I've always visualised myself to be.

And it's right here, bellowing in my face.
The opportunity to change, to walk, run.

But somehow, it's different.

Because, as I've mentioned, everything I do is wrong.
Despite my veneration of who I aspire to be, I can't.

Every time I grab on to that extended hand, it ends up leading me to an alien land.
"Believe in change," everyone says, "You're the only one who can help yourself."

That's utter rubbish, y'knw that? It's not like I haven't tried.
Then maybe you'll say "Trying hard isn't all there is to it."

Okay, persistence is the key. It so happens that persistence isn't relative to either confidence or convinction. The longer the persistence, the tinier the confidence and conviction.

Aaaand I end up creating excuses for myself.
Argh, when will I ever be independent.

In short-

I don't want to go out, I feel forced, squeezed into a corner, but if this is, say, the world of fanfictions, I'll be gung-ho and pumping my fists in the air and cracking jokes and getting along with life in general. Makes sense?

I think if Naru was by my side, I wouldn't be this reserved.

But if Naru's breathing, a human with his thoughts, I'll be self-conscious around him too. You just can't own the cake and eat it as well, which is strange if you think about it.

Why oh why.

What should I do?

• 1:29 PM, Thursday, February 2, 2012

This probably isn't the best time to be blogging when the deadline's breathing down my neck, but the weather's so delicious and my brain's filled with hymns and rhythms and epiphanies and I don't want to lose sight of this, whatever I'm feeling.

I've read through my posts. My world is centered around myself.
Often I'm the narrator who muses over tales that are not my own.

Meaning, I interpret situations and people in my own manner.
I like- prefer to be the observer, the by-stander, the uninvolved.

When I'm forced into the picture, I'm a blubbery mess.
I'm self-conscious of everything I am, my portrayal of me.

Although my blog is filled with confessions of how confused I am, days pass me by while I'm observing, taking in the little, insignificant acts of life and parsing them through a shredder within me. Then I cradle the shreds and chew on them, most thoughtfully.

It removes the confusion and leaves a tingling pressure.
I do not have an impact on anyone and I don't have to be mindful of me.

It's one of the few things that pulls me down to reality without demanding anything in return, makes me feel the hop in my steps.

I take in my surroundings, I see people pushing others to board the morning train, making irritated tuts of annoyance, I see the girl holding her mother's hand as she sucks on a lollipop and rambles away about a day well spent in school while her mother tucks her sweaty strands away and pets her head and I see the love glimmering in her eyes, I see the deluded youths in love with love as they hold the object that embodies their interpretation of love, but I don't shake my head in sympathy because interpretations are ubiquitous and unique in their own rights, I see the elderly ranting about their grandchildren and matters so irrelevant in the grand scheme of life, I see the businessmen tapping away on electronical devices and wonder if they know half the effort spent on developing such devices, and I'm just so happy.

I observe, and I'm happy, because these are tales that are not my own.
Nobody needs to know who I am, nor would they be burdened with my thoughts.

I'm unshackled from myself when I peruse tales and tales and endless tales.

Once, I've tried to analyse myself.
Analyse my life story, I my me mine.

I'm still the narrator, the omnipotent, all foreseeing.
I analysed my reactions, interactions, words.

I tried to form an opinion of myself, then I gave up halfway because I wasn't half as interested in this person called Janet as I was in the rest of the world.

It isn't because I already know what Janet goes through.
It's because Janet is uninspirational and nothing but another face in the masses.

So I think, I'll just do what I'm best at.
People's opinions of Janet shouldn't matter to me.

I want to observe and paint the funny walks of life.

And that is all.

Confidence is a most crucial ingredient in the makings of attractiveness.

It's something I sorely lack, though I don't pine for it.
I tend to act like a know-it-all because it frightens people.

At least I know, because people with confidence spilling in their wake frightens and awes me.

Making mountains out of molehills, creating non-existent issues, sometimes even playing the retard just to nurse the aching need to belong away into wonderland. It doesn't mean I'm not already trapped in a trance, only that I may very well lose my grip of the only route home if I don't commit these offences once in a while.

Fickle is my middle name. I've proclaimed I'm an attention-seeker on several posts. I've also proclaimed I'm not. But I'm not lying. I do lie, but I'm not lying on those posts declaring my status of attention-seeking, because they're the way I feel at the moment they were posted.

My posts are contradictory because I can feel saint-like one day and spiteful the next several months. When I try to ensure I'm as congruous as possible, I end up an equivocation with neither goals nor purpose in sight...not that I have them in the first place.

When I interact with others, I abuse "sorry" and "thank you" to a sorrowful extent. They've been drained of their meanings and I've done wrong to the English language. Do my "sorry" and "thank you" inconvenience others as much as the lack of them do?

Everything I do is wrong.

I recall our first presentation for our Java project. Our entire class was unaware how building an application goes about. It's more hands-on than anything, really. So, for our proposal, we could only throw in ideas we hope could impress the teacher.

I don't know what warrants an A. And if you ask if I'm desperate for an A? No. No, I'm not a perfectionist about my scores because it'll turn on me and suffocate me in the end. I try my best to keep a sane mind for a day longer because I want to appreciate my mom's smile.

Why am I working, then?

Times like this is exactly when I wish I could be someone else with their personal brand of thoughts and personality. But because I am not and will never experience this sweet temptation, I can only go by my own logic and reason.

Isn't it natural to desire a better score than not?
Would you rather a B, C, D, E or F as compared to an A?

"You say it like you could simply choose any grade you want and swish your hips as you walk away."

But, is that not the truth?
I can simply choose my grade.

As long as I study, I can choose my grade.
I can choose a F if circumstances demand.

It's my hard-earned liberty.

That's the truth behind my 4.0 GPA.
I didn't work exceptionally hard.

Just enough to choose my grade.

Following the same line of thought, I worked hard on the proposal and threw in ideas, ideas my brain thought to be innovative, not in the arrogant, obnoxious manner, but tentatively labelled as the most innovative I can come up with despite feeling they aren't innovative at all. I'd rather that than throw in sloppy, undriven ideas.

What happens?

I'm lectured for half an hour on my over-ambitious endeavours. I wasn't expecting rave reviews; I typed my proposal with just enough hard work, but my motivation was close to nil. I wasn't even proud of my hard work because it's nothing but an obstacle to knock over to obtain my liberty.

You can guess, I ended up utterly confused.
I won't deny being over-ambitious if I am, but I wasn't.

Not for this project, no.
It's nothing but a chore.

The teacher could have marked a C on my proposal and I wouldn't feel hurt; I'd only realize it's time to bring my hard work up a notch.

Is hard work wrong? Indolence is wrong, that's my hardwired ethics. But is hard work wrong? If hard work is wrong and indolence is wrong, where does that leave me?

I'm always wrong.

Like when I come to a consensus and it's wrong in some way. Those beautiful, confident creatures can do the same thing, but I'll screw up for some reason because my personality's just wrong.

My intentions are taken the wrong way (I don't have the confidence to carry them out in the first place). I see my posts as complaints, I try to explain "It's how I really feel and I'm not just an attention whore," the bitter irony gets to my tongue because, people's opinions are all that matters in the end. It's my blog, my thoughts, and then there's something compelling me to dispel any possible misunderstandings because I want people to have the purest, most raw image of me.

I'm so rotten I don't know what to do with myself.
I'm just wrong, my face, my life, my personality, me.

I scream wrong, I reek wrong, I am wrong.

I pretend and pretend and pretend to be a nice person who helps, not because it's heartwarming to see the smiles and receive the "thank you" but because it eases any guilt I have of inconveniencing others. It's all for me.

Sometimes I reach the point of thinking selfishness is nothing but a virtue when my mind threatens to go Armageddon on me with all its thoughts, relevant or irrelevant, rational or irrational, because I'm engulfed by depression and depression alone and I don't know what's what anymore and I only know to think straight again I have to care for myself before I can crawl my way back to my world of pretense and please people to live days free of guilt.

When I open up that one video on YouTube,
and I listen to Naru laugh with such mirth,
and I realize it's not Naru himself because Naru doesn't have a voice,

I smile at his antics, anyway, because nobody's drawing the line between reality and fantasy and Naru is as real as it gets and I want to stare at his gait and confess lengthy accounts of my veneration and he'll just smile and accept.

He'll accept me for who I am with all my dirty flaws and secrets.
He doesn't mind I'm never adequate for him, or anyone else, and embraces.

His blue orbs are all I see.
Sparkling blue with hair like the sun.

I like sleeping.

In my dreams I see him.
I can hug him, kiss him.

Then morning pours hot buckets of acid and god, the hours it takes till nightfall.

And I can't meet him every night.

It's funny.

The second my fingers tapped on the full-stop to complete my sentence, the waterdam broke and I don't reckon the current's been this trenchant in a while. It's broken. It's a grand flood with no signs of stopping.

I really really really wish he's real
At the same time I don't

because humans are so scary
and i don't want him to turn out scary

he's fine the way he is
we'll meet in our dreams

one day we'll meet in more than just dreams
then maybe the void in my heart will be filled.

bridge

The bridge was taut, beautiful in every way. The windows to her soul, the agonizingly long expanse of road. Crestfallen she stood, time flying her by.
