The Space In Between

You know the times, when you wake up in the morning and stare blankly into the ceiling, and wonder, "What should I do today?" That's basically my life. Real fun. Life's like a neverending cycle of contradictions. Waiting in earnest for exams to be over, only to dread the boredom of having nothing to do in the holidays. Perhaps its just me, but I bet i'm not the only one. I have to admit that there are things to do, people to meet, games to play, movies to watch, books to read. But always, something missing. Even in the company of friends, the lingering feeling is always there, like a phantom stalking me, ready to pounce at me the moment the fun and laughter stops. That's the emptiness I feel, which seems to paint my surroundings grey and dull, bleak and inanimate. Emptiness, the place in between, a place where no one else can enter, that time just seems to stand still......

*sigh*

I really am saying *sigh* too often...

Talked with Pearl on the phone earlier, and asked her out on Valentine's day... but she said someone asked her out already, 2 weeks in advance, and asked me how long I needed... Goodness! Its not about the meeting. Its not about how long you spend. Its about the heart!!!! From these words, I could see where her heart was already... Obviously not with me...

She really confuses me... Does she truly like me, or does she just treat me as a good friend? What am I to her? From some of her actions, it seems as if her heart is with me... but from others, it speaks the total opposite...

If you truly like someone, and that someone asks you out, you'd make time for that person... Even if there is none, you'd find time... cancel appointment, shift appointment, etc... You'd be willing to sacrifice other things, just for that one precious thing... Just like the guy who found the pearl buried under the ground, and sold all he had, just to buy that piece of land to get the pearl, as related in the bible... That's how it is...

Or at least for me... In fact, if that someone I truly liked asked me out, and I had some important thing to attend to, but not life and death, I'd tell the person I am free, even if I actually am not... and change the appointment and stuff, to make time... or at least tell the person I have something on, but if she still needs to see me, I'll change or cancel or something the appointment I initially had... Or if I were a girl, I'd tell people who wanted to jio me out for V.day that I'm not free, that someone already asked me out, when no one has yet, just to keep that that free for that special someone... That's what I'm searching for... Someone like me in that sense too.... I seriously thought she would be like that too, considering how she just pon lectures and tuts to help GW through his difficult times...

Looks like its going to be a difficult night again...

*sigh*
