time passes..

so February comes to an end... i am thankful that time is passing but march seems like an endless month!
i am missing my home and loved ones but try and keep busy to not feel it too much. i still have another 2 months to go before i go back home and 3 to 4 months before i am where i want to be. i hope the decisions i make are what God expects from me. but i know my priorities. i know what will make me happy. so does he. how good it felt when he said that i am his priority and to know that i am what will keep him going when i am there... i love him to bits!!
how lucky i am to have parents who are not caging me and possessing me but letting me test my wings and have faith that i will make the correct decisions for my life and those around me. they really are my everything after him and i hate the fact that i will have to choose and let them go. but i know that they will always be there for me...it is a bond that is so strong and whole that no amount of pressure of time and space can break or scar it.
i am glad that my heart is so strong and is able to understand what it wants. this makes my decision so much easier. i cant wait to come back to my baby and be there for him as much as he will be there for me.

Ode to AT

how can one human cause another human to disintergrate all possible confidence in the other..

of all the sounds i will ever hear
of all the sounds i heard
the sound i fear that hurts my ear
is the sound of an unkind word

the sound of danger when its near
the screeching of a bird
yes, all of these i take with ease
but please not an unkind word

the sound of thousand crashing thunder bolts
do i shake in my boots? not at all
the sound of a rushing pounding waterfall
i simply stand up tall

the deafening silence near a tomb
the eerie cries of the night
although they cause my heart to pound
they are things that only fright

but when i hear an angry voice, i seem to fall apart
this sound i know can kill one's soul
just think about it before you start
an unkind word can break somebody's heart.

Albert Tiong...this is dedicated to you. i hope i forgive you for making me feel like 'shit'.. as you so well put it. but for now my wrath outways the pity i usually have for you. you dont know what you miss by being this psycotic and hardened teacher. we are here to learn.. willling and wanting it! but it is people like you that take away all that and make us..me.. feel like just walking out of class and not caring. but i will hold on! i will not let you win! i will not let you see me give up because of your uncivilised tongue! that is a promise!
