borderline paranoia

without comments

life really has an amazing twists and turns. seriously i dunno what i am talking about, but who cares right? right now, i wanted to just let go of myself and just chill out. i guess it’s the rain that’s upsetting my mood. i always feel this way whenever the rainy season is in town. i feel depression seeping in. maybe it’s because the rain’s stopping me from doing the things that i love.

=-0-=

am i ready? am i sure this is what i want? i’ve been asked these series of questions countless of times, and to date, my answer is still NO. NO, i don’t know if i am ready, nor do i know when will i ever be. NO, i’m not sure this is what i want, but it’s been a given fact that i am not always sure of my decisions. i am a very spontaneous person, i don’t sit & weigh things up, before making a final decision. it’s pathetic in a way, but that’s the deal. and it works.

crazy but this song reminds me of something….i wonder should i go or should i stay, the band have only 1 more song to play….

that’s exactly what’s on my mind tonight!
it’s been so long since i heard ur voice… i kinda miss the carelessness
funny how i am not over-eager to hear your news…
or maybe this is it…

i dunno, i’m so wary
it’s hard to expect anything
i am often disappointed
gotta play by your rules

why do i always do that?
why do i squeeze myself?
am i such a fool?

The right brain of the brain focuses on the visual, and processes information in an intuitive and simultaneous way, looking first at the whole picture then the details.
