Annoying!

You know, I don't mind being single. I don't mind the fact that I don't have a potential someone. Most days, I really don't care. However, today... well today it got annoying.

Take a guess at how many times that particular topic came up today? Not once, not twice, not three, but four. The first was with my sister, the second with my mom and a jeweller, the third was with my friend Ran, and the fourth, was in my French class. I don't mind the topic, what I do mind is how people look at you pityingly and start trying to make you feel better - although you feel perfectly fine- by saying "oh, guys nowadays don't know what they want", "don't worry, you'll find someone", "when it happens, it happens" and, best of all "you are still young.... plenty of time!"

Like hello! Who said I'm feeling bad? and who said that I have to have someone to marry? and WHO SAID THAT I CAN'T BE CONTENT BY MYSELF?!!!!!

I know they all mean well... but it is that look that always upsets me. It's like people believe that if you are single, you must be this person that cries herself  to sleep for it every night. Newsflash people: I AM HAPPY BEING SINGLE!

Effffffffftttt

My silly bored poem

I don't know what to do with myself

I'm so bored that I can turn into an elf

and now I'm rhyming and I don't know why

Must be better than the tears I'd like to cry

When there is nothing to do

I really don't know what to do

Worrying about something that might not happen, or might never happen, is really a waste of time. For various reasons, I've spent the whole day remembering how I felt a few months back, and how much the stress and worry I put myself into had both aged and drained me. One good thing about such events taking place is that it teaches you just what you are prepared to put up with, what you can and can not deal with, and what you are willing to do to either bend or change the outcome of things.

It is rather unsettling when you discover some characteristic or trait in yourself that you never thought can exist in you. It is heartbreaking when you realize you are only human... and humans are horrible creatures. Humans make the worst possible choices sometimes, and other times they make a bad situation even worst. It is a habit of ours... one of our many charms. The silver lining to all this? Now that you know what your "new" limitations are, you can work to fix, alter or change them. No harm has been done, no permanent damage has been made. Time heals all wounds... or wounds all heals. Either way, you know that you can withstand it, and in the future, you will be better equipped and hopefully a little wiser. One thing I learnt: Not to worry prematurely, if what is dreaded is to happen, then you'll have plenty of time to worry when it happens.

See? Already wiser =)

Porcelain by Moby

In my dreams I'm dying all the time
As I wake its kaleidoscopic mind
I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie
So this is goodbye
This is goodbye

Tell the truth you never wanted me
Tell me

In my dreams I'm jealous all the time
As I wake I'm going out of my mind
Going out of my mind

Happy Valentine's!

I am truly grateful for the people I currently have in my life. Each of them casts their own ray of sunshine down on me on a daily basis. I do not believe that V-day should only be reserved for couples and lovers, as I do not believe that we should only declare our love on this day. I wish you all a truly good V-day. I hope s/he calls or contacts you. I hope you always have a smile on your face, and I hope you are always met with good fortune.

I love you all dearly. Thank you for being there. Thank you for believing I will be pseudo-whole again, and thank you for your time.


Millions of Kisses,
Berry

Proof!

Told you, I'm becoming domesticated. I actually baked and decorated this, ALL from scratch. I know, its green, but that was the only food coloring I had on hand. It tastes quiet good, surprisingly, but it is SO sweet.

Don't they just look YUMMMMYYY?
=)

On =)

I do not know when it happened, or even how for that matter. I am so confused about this sudden change that I freak out whenever I catch myself doing anything about it. What is this change, you might ask?

Well, after 3 years of living out here, and hating it, I am nesting. I am fixing up my room- I refused to do that earlier as that meant that my stay here was permanent. I am de-cluttering my life, this not only includes material possessions, but also mental ones, and in general, I am moving on with my life. I am also baking cookies, muffins that turned out salty and I even made grilled Salmon! The cookies were a hit, the Salmon was a-OK and the muffins I am never attempting again....

So, back to my point: I am at a healthy mental state. Am I happy? No, I do not think I will ever go back to being totally and genuinely happy. It has been too long since that took place. However, I am content. I am fine with being where I am at the moment. Although, where I happen to be right now seems to be one of the "happy" places on Earth (see pic below). Maybe its the positive vibes, eh?

No, I didn't think so.... but, somehow, I feel as though I am exactly where I am supposed to be in life. Maybe I am mistaken, but lets see how this goes for now.

So, I am nesting. Fixing up my room so I no longer feel like a refugee. Fixing up my cupboards so I no longer have a hard time finding anything, and defiantly, no longer living out of suitcases.I am becoming domesticated. It feels weird, this change.... a good kind of weird.
