such a jolly season...

Mood: Sarcastic
Listening to: keyboards tapping
Reading: the screen that's so gray
Watching: the days fade away
Playing: inside though the cat's away
Eating: my life apart
Drinking: hot chocolate in the dark



I've got a headache
My iPod got stolen
My undergrad thesis was saved there
And there's no recent backup...

All my close relatives
Are a bajillion miles away
Frolicking through white snow
Or in the living room, so happy...

My girl's parents apparently
They don't like me
So I'm stuck deciding
Whether to spend new year with them like Christmas past...
or by my lonesome.

This is the second time
I'm writing these lines
Since the computer went bonkers
Before I got to press "publish"

Tis the season to be jolly
All that's left however,
Is brown and dry holly...
With the berries all wrinkled up.

Wishing you all
A merry, jolly season...
May it be strewn with colors and lights...
As mine is strewn with emptiness inside.

May your fingers be intact.

Boo-ya.

Happy New Year Kahlil!! Your mom must have wished you were there with them.

Hope you can come to Singapore before you fly to the US.
