ive nightmares
of ppl around me dying
ppl i love
ppl leaving me

i wake up
in the middle of the night
unable to shake off
these fearful images

i go back to sleep
the nightmares haunt me no less
i hug myself
tighter to sleep

nightmares bring me
uneasiness and tears
all these
which can never be seen in me.
ts pract is finally over
with almost everything off my mind
i can finally start on my exams

ok, maybe this is way too late
cos my lit paper is tomorrow
but im trying hard enough
im in sch on a bright and lovely sunday morning
in as3
trying to mug

was kinda worried abt ts exam
when the cast were changing after the exam
gerald chew came and smiled to me
and said
'good job isabelle.. we really liked it'

it was really nice to see a comforting smile
and soothing words
when i was so nervous already

4 papers
3 to be conquered by this weekend
after which i have 1 week to do my soci paper
and
by 6 may 2005,
i am a free man!
=)

cant wait for everything to end

horrid 2005.

school's officially over.
and that means a few things:

1. exams are comin
2. hols are comin too
3. ts pract is scarily nearing
4. sleepless nites are gonna be here
5. german is officially over, at least for me

kinda gonna miss german, i do like the language and learning to speak it and all
but i know this sem german is gonna screw my cap :(
we'll think abt taking german 2 anot after we get back our results ok, ms ambitious?
or maybe i can further worsen things and take french 1!
hoho.
the sadistic things i do to myself.

been really really really tired.
tuition, rehearsals, sch work, test, assignments, 2 hrs sleep (whole cycle X 1000 times)
no life, cant breathe
sometimes as i take the solitary walk past the creepy yet enthralling old house at yew siang road at 920pm
i cant help but take the only chance to breathe in the fresh air of the night
the crisp of the air
feel the wind caress my hair
and i find myself drawn into the old house
so antique, so beautiful
but always hidden from public's eye
there's always light in it
a colonial house, bursting with authentic flavour
beautiful carvings, swivel staircase, traditional doors
awesome.
i am in love with the house.

always wanted to work with the heritage board
and learn abt preserving beautiful places with rich history
that is a dream

hmmm
mum told me lotsa chaotic stuff happening in the external family
noone wants my grandma again
and they are apparently asking for a meeting to decide where to put her tablet
but excuse me, my grandma isnt even dead yet
we are so disturbed and angered at the lack of respect for her
she maybe old naggy and hard of hearing
but tt does not explain the inhumane way they are treating her

if we could we would have had her stay with us
my house only has 2 rooms
and they still leave the psychotic mad woman with us
who always makes bloody noises when we are home
i think the last thing we all need is all the chaos

after everything,
i think we all need a break.

my brother-in-law's death is so painful to speak of
just because i dont talk abt it
doesnt mean i have forgotten
its just indescribably painful

and guess wat? his msian relatives who didnt even bother to rush down when he was in severe danger and coma and were extremely greedy and annoying at his funeral
actually called my 2nd sister
and asked her to bring them around one day should they drop by singapore again.

im like
where is ur conscience?
u never did ask about the two young boys who are fatherless
u never cared abt my sister
u never felt for my brother-in-law who did so much

he's the best person in the world
the best brother and father

but his death
is taken so lightly

why?
does noone care?

what do u tell a middle aged woman
with the wrinkles and creases on her face
full of hopes and love for her son-in-law
when she expresses her angst at losing her only son
what do u tell her?

what do u tell a young woman
with the responsiblity of the world all on her shoulders
with two young children to bring up
to be a mother, a father and both
what do u tell her?

what do u tell two young boys
with big innocent eyes and voices hiding the pain
no longer seeing the familiar loving figure who buys them their gameboys
with their ignorant friends taunting them about the loss of their father
what do u tell them?

x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

have u ever called home
and you had to announce the very words
which made ur eyes filled wiht big pearls of tears
and threatened to choke ur words
to let ur family members know

u have to rush here
he cant make it anymore

have u ever stayed by a hospital bed
looking forlornly and helplessly
at a familiar figure lying on the bed with drips stuck all over
and the constant sound of the monitor keeps u going
and u dare not sleep for fear of missing anything?

beep... beep...beep...
beep.beep.beeeeeep!

have u ever held ur dear one's hands
and had to say the most painful goodbye
seeing the life totally drained from his body
and seeing him in peace yet it breaks ur heart
and u just have to be brave and blink away the tears?

have you?

i have. twice.

back into the arms i love

like u did before

touch me once again
and remember when
there was noone but you
