i probably won’t be able to report on whether i have reached this goal, since always would be forever.
and forever would be a long long time.
perhaps longer than i would like to be still on 43 things. :)

getting jaded with writing
4 years ago
i’m giving up on this. based on the fact that the world is over-saturated with so many books at the moment. we are publishing more than we are reading.
and out of all the published works, only really a minuscle proportion of that are good and actually get due recognition. if your life’s work is only in the words you write, and if nobody gives a shit about them, does that mean you have failed?
sometimes i am afraid to know.
he's the love story of my life.

1998 – classmates who never spoke to each other. [although he confessed he had a crush on me that year]
1999 – went separate ways when we both switched schools. never thought much about him since.
2000 – no thoughts about him.
2001 – one mention of him during a gossip session with a friend.
2002 – found a fascinating blog but with an anonymous author.
2003 – author of said fascinating blog stopped updating.
2004 – would refer to bookmarked blog from time to time, wondering constantly who he was. was bordering on severe internet crush on somebody i hardly even know/have never seen/have no idea of who he was, based only on his words.
2005 – received an out-of-the-blue email from an ex-classmate who found me through friendster. through manic email-swapping, it was revealed that he was THAT anonymous author of THAT blog. this was followed with other serendiptious coincidences. flirting which had ensued evolved into a full-blown romance. now i’m just waiting to go home and see him.
