The Horrid start to the Lunar New Year and the Awful Birthday present

A man or boy should never have to go through break-up and results of an important exam in a single week. How I got through it, only God knows, but i think it might be something along the line of FRIENDS. So yea, i been busy occupying myself with driving lessons and socialising with friends I have neglected. I just couldn't stay at home alone because it still hurt and when you're alone you just keep thinking of it. Which is why i thought Quen's arrival would provide sweet reprieve from the pain but it was when he was asleep that i went back to weeping quietly on my bed. So I have to thank Grace for having lunch with me on Wednesday. Somehow I ended up teaching her how to play many board games and began to wonder where this girl was from not knowing that many. Must have spent childhood on Venus. Oh yea, introduced her to iSketch too and it keeps her occupied on her boring days. And on results day, our class went for dinner at Fish & Co, Glasshouse. Then after a hell of a long debate Thammie, Wenny, Grace and I decided to strain our necks and take the front row for Ghost Rider. Then we all found out that they provided blankets and so i got wenny and grace blankets. But towards the end i had to steal Wenny's because my hands were freezing and made them share one. On Saturday, I really packed my day, with soccer with SLK at 9am and soccer with TJ friends at 4, and off to fusion2 at 9 to watch, to quote Quek, "man u deliver a sucker punch to liverpool."

Back to my horrid week, most of you would know that i've broken up and those that have asked would know this really really hurts because I still wanted the relationship. And sorry I can't answer those who asked me why i would break-up over something quite fickle that most couples face. I finally understand the meaning when Kenny Rogers crooned that classic Buy Me A Rose. All that neglect finally caused her to let go and walk away. As for the results, I underachieved and got an A,C,C and a B3 for GP. There goes my dreams of doing Aeronautical Engineering. But i soon realised that didn't hurt half as much as seeing Ben and Shumin sharing their results, or Jie long and Sher or Lay Sian and Danial. I had always envisioned somebody special being there on my results day, or when I enter army. So I'll face the solitude of army alone.

I decided to go for dance today, alone. I'm really sorry to Hazel and Avril to have to be stolen away from your partners to dance with me. And then rushed home to send Quen Seng off all the way in Novena(i finally get my bed back!). Then went for dinner at VeloCity with Grace at MOS Burger. And on to United Square to buy Patrizio Buanne's new album. Quite good!

That leaves me here in front of my computer, wishing you'd come back to me, to end the hiatus and give me someone to hold and love again.
