Me.

Bye Bye Blue Eyes Under Grey Skies.

It's been a while since I surfed the Internet, thanks largely to the incompetence of Streamyx. I've been busy, and unfortunately I completely forgot to wish many people a Merry Christmas. I know it's late, but please accept my compliments of the season.

And of course, it's the 31st. So a special greeting is in order: Happy New Year everyone! I know, I'm a little early. But better now than... 2 weeks down the road?

Ha ha.

I'll see you guys soon, when (if is a bigger likelihood) I've got my connection running again.

I miss some things, some people - but I don't regret the decisions I've made.

An End Like Any Other.

I didn't realize till today that it's been a whole two weeks since my last post. I'm rarely away this long, unless I mention beforehand that I'd be on some hiatus. I guess my creative juices haven't been flowing as they should lately.

I'm almost three weeks into my last semester. A month and a half from now, and I'll be free from the IT Department.


Yearp. That'll be one successful outcome. Joy! I'm determined to get myself a HD for Calculus this semester - I failed it once, and if I retake it and get anything less... well, I'd be sorely disappointed with myself.

2008 is coming to an end. It's been a long and rough year for a lot of people, me included (obviously). It's been horrible for the most part, but I don't think I'll spend these last few days sitting around moping about what I've lost or the troubles I've faced. In fact, I want this year to end well, so I'll be making the most of my time doing whatever makes me happy, with the people that make me happy :D

Speaking of people that make me happy: I've not seen my foosball partner for more than a month now! I wonder how the happy Indian is. Last I called, Thilagan was on his way to Penang. Penang will be dry (of liquor) by Sunday. Not a joke. Still, laughing is in order. Ha ha!

And Collin! Ah. My other half (No, I'm not gay) from Rawang will be back in Malaysia on the 23rd. I've an erection just thinking about the stuff we'll be doing together (seriously, I'm not gay). We'll be drinking ourselves silly, that much I know (okay, maybe not me. I don't drink much. Really). Drinking with Collin and Thilagan is always a blast.

And now to make plans for New Year's Eve. I've got something in mind, and it only involves me and two significant others (no, it's not the two bumbling idiots I mentioned three sentences ago). Will have to talk to the two lovely ladies about it soon.

Huzzah.

Between Here And There.

I found her sitting comfortably in an open field - she wore a colourful, floral-patterned dress. Her hair billowed in the wind - it was a beautiful golden brown that captured the very essence of the morning Sun.

I knelt behind her, my hands firmly placed on her shoulders. Her skin was soft, flawless. The sweet, fragrant air about her made my senses dance, and I was filled with joy.

She turned and greeted me with a smile - a smile so beautiful that for a moment, I thought I'd died and was before the great gates of Heaven. Her eyes were warm and inviting - a thousand different pictures hidden behind them. And when she opened her mouth to speak, I knew then that there were a thousand stories behind it all.

All I wanted to do was listen. Her voice was like a breeze through a quiet forest - soft, soothing. She told me stories of the Hidden Rainbows, of the Shining Stars, and of the Singing Hills. I listened, and listened - with my head resting on her lap, her fingers running through my hair. I did die, and yes... I believed I was in Heaven.

She leaned forward, and kissed my forehead. She smiled again, and told me our time was at an end. At an end. She began to fade - I cried and begged her to stay a little longer, but our time wasn't our own. She held me, my eyes were closed in her comforting embrace. And then she was gone.

I opened my eyes to find myself lying alone, between the four walls of my bedroom.

A dream.

Just a dream.

It was a wonderful dream.

I slept well. So well.

And now I miss her.

I miss her.
