These days, when I attempt to blog about my life, I find myself at a loss for words and there is just this sense of loss and even dread as I try to reflect upon my life in this new year. Well, I wouldn't say that this sem is as smooth sailing as the previous sem. Firstly, I realise that I do waste a lot of time AND energy travelling to and from school everyday. Secondly, I've been pretty distracted by many things happening around me: Friends leaving, Friend's Birthdays, DB trainings and OTOTs...SOmetimes I question myself if I am giving too much time to other people and leaving to little time for myself. Some days, I just feel like not being 'RAchael'for a day and be a loner, isolated from the world, resting in my little corner. Well, definitely this would be heavenly. But no. I guess it is not the way things should be. This would make me seem like a frog at the bottom of the well. A nerd. An anti-social freak and I would most probably regret it when I grow old and start musing about my lack of friends and such. Sometimes I really wonder, what would happen if one did not have friends?

Friends are actually really good people to have. They keep you sane and alive in this fast-changing world. They provide you with a tissue paper when you cry and laugh at silly jokes with you. Or is it?

Sometimes, you have such a thing called a friendship of convenience. Or shall we call it the '7-eleven association'. Here, friends express interest in each other only because they wish to seek some mutual personal benefit. It's like, " Oh, I need to get this textbook! No worries, i shall look sally up, I'm sure she'll be nice enought to lend her book to me even though I havent spoken to her for eons!"

Oh PUH-lEEsH! NoW. I CONDEMN that Kindda association. In fact, it should not even be allowed to exist. Ironically, in this practical world, it is REAL. Ok. at least on my side, the situation looks bleaker.

Ok. As my eyes seem to refuse to coordinate with my brain, I am left with no choice but to end this post pre-maturely. AdieU.
