too afraid to take that step out, are we?

sometimes i think i'm selfish.
i knew it but i pretended i didnt.
because i wanted things to stay the same as it is.
can't we just stay as friends?
i thought to myself.
was i too cruel, to deny you before you could speak?

sometimes i know i'm wrong.
because avoidance simply isnt the key nor the solution.
yet, i picked this path that i knew will make us further and further.
when pretence fail, when things become too obvious, i chose to escape.
and i know too well i was being selfish again.

maybe i was saving myself from the hurt, but i wasnt saving you.

It's these little things I miss about school. Mostly the once familiar environment and the freedom.  That's not to say that work is a dreadful task. It's just that Work is like an all consuming entity that creeps up in your mind, occupy your life i...

As I'm laying on my bed now, I try my best to not think about my trip tomorrow for fear that I may start panicking. Now that I think about it, I must have been crazy to book an air ticket to Europe two weeks before the flight. 5 weeks in Europe and less than 2 weeks of planning! What was I thinking? And we are only two girls. I didnt even thought about going to Europe after I came back from exchange since I was immensely broke. Well, but I have to say somewhere along the way someone planted that thought in my head. Even though I kept throwing it away and telling myself it's impossible, signs keep popping out and gave me the hope again. And indeed, somehow things that are bad started clicking together and turned for the better. It is like the universe wanted me to go. As always it's the pre trip jittery and I as usual is not prepared at all even under prepared this time. I always start off a trip with uncertainty and come back full of memories. Wish me luck this time round a...
