Silenced scream
Random Trivia: Arth claimed to have read 89% of Honestly Dead before he got inspired to create its banner.

I realized how introspective my blog has become for the past two months. Not good, people, not too good. The experience was quite a roller-coaster ride and the relevant reads were mostly plunging emo moments.
I need my energy back.
Experienced bloggers share one understanding: You can get a free ticket to hell when you dabble with stories that resound your personal life; innocent stories which are potently controversial at the same time.
It’s during times like this I wonder how can I write to share while protecting myself.
Is it ethical to get romantically involved with someone you care, whom persists that you give them a chance with all things considered, when your heart lies elsewhere?
Oh, oh, and consider this:
–
=> represents romantic interest
Past:
B1<=> G1
B1 <= G1
B2 <=> G2
Present:
G2 <=>
B2(?)G1 => B1 => G2 <=>
B2(?)G1 and B2 have a connection too.

This reminds me of One Tree Hill and The O.C. Meh.

Another Random Trivia: Given the choice of kids, elderly, and the disabled, people instinctively want to take care of the disabled last.
Mind your heart
(Edited; 26th Sept, 2006)
Part 1
Apparently, the mind doesn’t necessarily tell you what you want or need. The heart does.
What the mind does is just to label the past; the tried and tested. For convenience sake.
I’ve somehow bypassed the preference stage. Things seem to be more certain when I find out what I don’t like instead.
When things don’t feel right.
The heart naturally holds more power than the mind. If we were to compare the body to the free market, we could say that the heart would be the consumers who influence the decision of the mind which is the producer.
To what extent would the consumers influence the producer?
To what extent could the producer influence the consumers? After all, not everything the consumers want is good for themselves.
Then again, the producers may not know what’s best for the consumers. They’re more concerned with the end product.
In this world of business.
Similarly, which is better, to embrace your feelings or to live in denial?
I suppose what’s more important is that you can face yourself.

Concerned letters to the citizens of the USA and UK
(Editor’s note: An email forward worth forwarding. The following is a popular version of a well-known satire in response to the election of Bush Jr. in year 2000. It is slightly edited for easier reading. Here, we can observe the difference between British humour and American humor. Cheers! )

Notice of Revocation of Independance
To the citizens of the United States of America:
In the light of your failure to elect a competent president to govern yourselves, and, by extension, the free world, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective today.
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths and other territories. (Except Utah, which she does not fancy.) Your new Prime Minister (The Right Honourable Tony Blair, MP. News flash for the 97.85% of you who have until now been unaware that there is a world outside your borders) will appoint a governor for the USA without the need for further elections. The Congress and the Senate will be disbanded.
A questionnaire will be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:
Unlearnt lessons
(Edited; 20th Sept, 2006)
It’s no secret that I’m a generally amicable harmony lover.
Usually, I believe in mistakes.
Normally, I believe that mistakes happen, that nobody is perfect, that nothing ever runs according to plan, that regrets shouldn’t be held on to, and that grudges shouldn’t be kept.
Yet, normality is relative.
People who don’t acknowledge their mistakes are those that I find hard to forgive.
Even worse are those who refuse to.
Especially when they have toyed with my trust.
In case your ego’s larger than life, fine, you don’t even have to squeak about it. So long you make damn well sure that it’s painfully obvious to me that you have learnt your lesson.
And not act like I’m keen to start afresh for the sake of your face. Or for whatever it is that you’re so uncomfortable with.
It’s only human to shun those who have hurt you before, particularly when your innocence has been played with; experimented with; manipulated.
For their benefit.
No wonder they seem fucked up.
Working Mousetrap?
This post is quite overdue.
Here is what has been going on with the play.
My nickname there is PROMPTLY. Go figure.
