What I had, which was horrible in its own way, was only a little patch of oblivion to what the world really is and how my life will really be like.

Imagine having sent your son/brother/family member off in glory to the Olympics in order to have him pass away in an accident that probably could have been avoided or perhaps not been fatal, before the games even begin. I do not know what the engineers could have been thinking, leaving steel poles unpadded right at the turn of a hard curve on a luge track. Maybe it&#39;s hindsight, but that was quite an obvious danger that I think could have saved this young man&#39;s life. It&#39;s just a tragic loss, and they should close the track entirely.

They&#39;re so long.. and action packed.. and having to describe every little detail might drive me nuts, even though I simply do without them. So, I usually take the easiest way out and just decide not to write them down. I really should though.. having a dream diary is an interesting way to introspect. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There&#39;s been a whole bunch about the end of the world, and me having to save citizens of the world, and other crazy things like fighting on the top of a gravity-free building that&#39;s been designated to be a part of the new world in order to prevent the demolition of the old one.. and other weird things like that. I&#39;m constantly jumping, shooting, flying, swimming with mythical creatures or something else entirely trippy. Sometimes I feel like if I could record my dreams with a video camera, I could probably sell them as movies. They really do take you for a ride.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Right, I was up till 5 am last night puking my guts out because I got food poisoning. My stomach seems to be having a lot of trouble lately.

I do feel a bit fat, but it&#39;s probably because I&#39;m just not used to feeling so heavy or having that little tummy flabbing about above my pants. And yet I&#39;m still hungry. I want beef steak soup with potatoes, and I want it now. And on top of that I want kit kat. I feel disgusting, overweight, oily, ugly, ARGH. This is not a good day, and to top it all off, I&#39;m pretty sure I don&#39;t have pms right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Enough with the complaints. Ivan&#39;s been asking me all along if I like him with or without glasses and I told him very very honestly that I loved his glasses, and I do! It makes his head look smaller, for one thing, and he looks very very cute in them! Buuuuut, he doesn&#39;t believe me. It&#39;s nice to have your opinions treasured.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On another downside, I&#39;ve been having horrible nightmares about Crescent lately. I dream every night that it&#39;s the last day before exams and that I&#39;ve the whole semester&#39;s worth of work to study for the exam. Which of course is not happening, but since it is my last semester I seem to have some extreme stress factor, and it&#39;s actually been getting me very down lately. I&#39;m crankier than usual and extremely irritable. I&#39;ve cut down my food because of a lack of appetite and have been sleeping a lot and now I&#39;m just going on and on about goodness knows what. I have to get back into some kind of normal person routine, and I think that next year I will have to move out into an actual apartment with windows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the moment, life is such a nightmare I wish it would go away. I don&#39;t want this!! I want a life that&#39;s fulfilling and exciting and memorable, not one made up of nightmares.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/feeds/7405459395993953695/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/2010/01/is-this-for-real.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5443609/posts/default/7405459395993953695'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5443609/posts/default/7405459395993953695'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/2010/01/is-this-for-real.html' title='Is this for real?'/><author><name>the little thoughts of a little person.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00980311464937017233</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lhVRrU5uFeY/SZ6_dYomBdI/AAAAAAAABZE/LXhRkt6FM6E/S220/IMG_0009.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443609.post-7129375125845705010</id><published>2010-01-19T22:32:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-19T22:33:41.836-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Dreams"/><title type='text'>Pandan Valley</title><content type='html'>I love Pandan Valley, but everytime I have bad dreams, it&#39;s in that place.

Bird-like, bone structure, I&#39;ve thought about it all. I&#39;ve thought about my thighs, my midriff and my arms. I&#39;ve thought about my shoulders, the shape of my face and most of all, my legs and butt. But it&#39;s no good. No matter how much I try to look sophisticated and like a working woman, it just doesn&#39;t catch on! I look clumsy, like a kid in mummy&#39;s clothes.Unshapely, round, pear-like. I can&#39;t get my butt to perk in high waisted, A-lines, can&#39;t get my shoulders to round nicely into banana boats, v-necks or cashmere sweaters. There are so many things I cannot wear, the biggest bane I have is with tube tops and strapless bras. I look too fat, too skinny, too &lt;b&gt;young&lt;/b&gt;. I&#39;ve figured that no matter how much money I spend on the fitting or the make, or the material, it&#39;s just never going to happen. I think I&#39;ll just have to stick to looking like a happy kid, or a mod. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes, you have to have all the cream cheese danishes you want before you realised that it was ever so good because you only had one.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/feeds/4427833209799315202/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-cream-cheese-danish-theory.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5443609/posts/default/4427833209799315202'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5443609/posts/default/4427833209799315202'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://hodgepodge-salmagundi.blogspot.com/2010/01/my-cream-cheese-danish-theory.html' title='My Cream Cheese Danish Theory'/><author><name>the little thoughts of a little person.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00980311464937017233</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_lhVRrU5uFeY/SZ6_dYomBdI/AAAAAAAABZE/LXhRkt6FM6E/S220/IMG_0009.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443609.post-3158265037585507425</id><published>2010-01-14T20:32:00.003-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-14T20:37:15.226-08:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="In The News"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="On Idiots"/><title type='text'>Are you sure you&#39;re well read?!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.details.com/sex-relationships/sex-and-other-releases/201001/americas-first-legal-male-prostitute&quot;&gt;America&#39;s First Legal Male Prostitute&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lhVRrU5uFeY/S0_w7dlQvwI/AAAAAAAABiw/L7YsRThXvE8/s1600-h/Markus_ArticleV2.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 223px; height: 320px;&quot; src=&quot;http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_lhVRrU5uFeY/S0_w7dlQvwI/AAAAAAAABiw/L7YsRThXvE8/s320/Markus_ArticleV2.jpg&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5426820980348600066&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hate to say it, but to even compare himself to Rosa Parks... and the fact that it makes NO sense at all..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;It&#39;s just the same as when Rosa Parks decided to sit at the front instead of the back. She was proclaiming her rights as a disadvantaged, African-American older woman. And I&#39;m doing the same. I&#39;m actually standing up now, and hopefully I can be supported by the male community and be understood as a person.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you keeding me?! What are you standing up for? Your rights as a male American to have sex for money? Ummm.. alright, quite the same as standing up against racial discrimination I suppose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Women don&#39;t pay for sex, they pay for experience. And luckily for me, I don&#39;t have that much experience with sex, but I have the mentality and the emotion and gumption to make them feel the way they want to feel.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Okay, so you want people to pay to have sex with you, but you don&#39;t have much experience with sex.
