Me? Nephrite. aka Jade. Stone, first and foremost. Being human comes later. Nah. I'm just kidding. Film fanatic. Lit Major. Loves books (DUH). Dragon baby. Don't watch much TV. I want to live like its the last moon rising and scream, just like no one's there. Here, I might lose all of my control. Don't blame me later if you don't wanna heed my warning. sometimes I say things that don't come out right but its all in the heat of the moment. It's not too late for you to turn back now. In these Invisible Cities I will build by myself, I hope you will enjoy yourself. The city will be made of green and black. There will be no bed of roses, but a crown of thorns. There will be wilted red roses and drooping stalks of violets. There will be rainbows, but with no pots of gold. There will be more rain than sun, more tears than smiles. What? Did you think this was some kind of fairytale? Baby, wake up and smell the flowers. There are none. Where did the flowers go? I don't know. And then you will see the world through my eyes.

I wonder.

Sister two mentioned yesterday that its sad to be at home alone.
Really?

yea, i feel sorry about leaving her alone at home.
But. how many times have i gone down the guilt trip that has brought me back to the point of despair? if i don't stand up for myself now, then when?

will i ever, if not now?
carpe diem, no?

you cannot seize the day as an entity, but i think we certainly can change how the day affects our lives/us as people.

responsibility
Monday, September 19, 2011
Nephrite at 10:23:00 AM


i think right now my family is the one unit of people in my life who really shouldn't lecture me about what responsibility is. or rather, they don't really have a right to anymore.

dad threw responsibility out the window when he decided at one point in time that the family could survive on air and refused to take on a job to support the family.

sister one threw it out when she decided to be unreasonable at any time she felt like it, whether or not she dragged the entire family's atmosphere along with her.

sister two threw it out the window when she prioritized her bf over family and just relied on everyone else but herself.

as for me? i'm not any better than the rest of them because i decided to give up when i got tired. i decided to be more selfish, to tend to what i needed to get done first, stood up for myself. and as a result, that makes me become "independent" to the rest, but to my family i was irresponsible and very selfish. so.

until now i thought i could rely on my mother, but last friday she proved me wrong.
my cousin got me into trouble with the tax people and this whole thing started because of my mum, when i asked her to take responsibility, she conveniently shirked it off and told me to get it settled myself. all the other crazy things she does to me i can shirk off. but not when it regards something big like my future, or stuff that i already knew had a high chance of going wrong. she knew this could/would happen, but she didn't warn me, or try to prevent it from happening. if not for my foresight to carry that extra ezlink card, i would have been like a beggar stuck wherever his wandering feet took him. yes, i was nearly stuck right at the mrt with no way to get home. and with my good friend's wedding the next day how the hell was i supposed to come up with the ang pao money. wth srsly.


so, you, you, you and you, the four of you no longer have the right to tell me what i should or shouldnt do anymore. see if you try it again. this is the final shred.
