I have failed countless times to update this blog, and I have a feeling no one really reads anymore. However, since this was where I started writing it always feels most comforting to return to write short bit about my life here
I was browsing today this article where a number of individuals had submitted pictures or scans of their teenage diaries. I have hardly graduated out of teenhood myself; once a very interesting character told me that you don't truly stop being a teen until you've passed 25 years of age. Sometimes not even then. Yet I can't help but look at (the now hidden) entries that used to chronicle my life in secondary school and then in junior college. I was a very different person then, and yet, not so.
As I write this now, I am waiting for myself to fall asleep, for the memories in my head to die down so I may just tumble into a nice dreamless sleep.
Yet sleep evades me, as it naturally does when you need to wake mere hours later for the most important task of school. It feels so new all over again, because people just come and go and come back again.
But enough of my rambling, I should really try to at least close my eyes and lay down, and hope that eventually sleep will take me.
To all those people who left my life, I miss you. You know who you are

towels
i feel really blessed to have softener. yep. softener. its makes my towels smell and feel really nice after a long, arduous day at school.
i love cold showers, cos i feel truly clean when i take one. having the sweet smelling shampoo lather wash off onto the tiling, and the soap bubbles in the sink. i feel as if the weight of the world is washed off the shoulders, and i don't feel as hot and bothery as i do in school.
i think i have a charmed bed, which makes all the tense muscles and weariness melt away the moment i lay myself upon it. it makes all the difference, especially in the night.
i enjoy having my fridge permanently stocked with ice. its my saviour on hot days, on days when i'm having headaches, or have the craving for something cold sliding down my throat.
i like having a never-ending supply of national geographic magazines, with pretty pictures, lovely articles, and a truckload of interesting facts to digest. its like having the world in your hands, and it is a great reminder of not only how big God made out Earth, but how beautiful.
i'm truly blessed, because i know that millions out there don't have what i have. i have soft fragrant towels, nice cold showers, sweet smelling shampoo and soap that makes you squeaky clean. an charmed bed, lovely cool ice when i want it, and a whole shelf-full of national geographic for my perusal. i need nothing more than those pleasures in my life to feel at home, to feel rested, to feel good.
home is definitely sweet.
